Due to my involvement with the Costcon during the WCG, I was late for Ah Bee's wedding. The dinner was about to start and I bumped into Siang chuen and Noelle, who were also looking for the seats. Finally, Eu Huat saw us and we're re-united with him, Dylan and Chee sheng.
Just like at the dinner of Xiaohui's, we talked about our work environment and asked about updates on colleagues we have not seen for some time. We still keep tabs on each other and admittedly, it's not very difficult.
Congratulations, Ah bee.
[Interlude]
We interrupt these reunion stories for another story.
After the dinner, I was waiting to get a cab to go to the Gohs. The traffic was bad and people were stealing my cabs by standing ahead of me and pretending not to see me. One lady, probably 19-20 years old was with her parents. The parents saw the traffic conditions and looked towards my direction, suggested taking the train. The girl raised her voiced at them, said she's going to get home herself, she's taking no stinking train that's so far away. Argue, argue, parents gave in. They moved away from my sight.

Taxi driver dropped me off, insisted on giving me a discount I met up with Shandy, Eric, Gim and Wei shei. We played MJ while Eric sat out preparing food. I won a wu-fan by pure dumb luck that got everyone screaming. We stopped for a break and Eric brought out the river prawns they caught today and opened up a bottle of white. Eat eat, drink drink, went back to our cards. Shandy was winning and I ended the game with a si-fan zi muo. Another piece of dumb luck, haha.
Stopped for a second round of river prawns. Just like the wedding, we did catching up as all of us are in different locations now. Gim and I were the ones who just moved while the others are happy where they are. We ended at 3+ and called it a night.
I slept 11 hours...
wah 11 hours! i haven't sleep so long for a long time....
