Thursday, December 21

well it's certainly been an eventful week. on monday went to town to meet up with nat and joses at NYDC. nat was having dinner with her friends and said to meet at 9.15 well naturally expecting her to be late i arrived 20mins after she did -oops- anyway man the rain was pouring like crazy. thankfully the run from somerset station to orchard emerald and then to heeren wasnt too far, so i was only a tad drenched by the time i reached NYDC. apparently the help staff didnt think so, they offered me a stack of serviettes to dry myself. dang, i swore they were laughing at me thinking "where does this fella come from? doesn't he know people usually stay INDOORS when it rains like that?!" so noting the odd looks i was receiving, i was prompted to ask nat "eh do i look THAT wet?" i mean ok so my hair was kinda wet, but my clothes and all were pretty dry mah! mm k, anyway so we were there chatting for awhile, waiting for big shot joses (who has to arrive latest, otherwise not big shot enough) and in between, deciding what to order for dessert. apparently one of the waitresses there was the sister of someone whom joses knew and he shamelessly "flirted" with her haha. now i'm sure joses will give a different account of what happened, but nat'll agree with me haha. so yeah was nice chatting with both of them, kinda finding out how they've been etc etc. like for nat, how's year 2, staying outside of school etc and for joses how he's holding 2 (yes 2! respect man.) jobs at once. like it's so nice being able to have a good conversation as opposed to usual class outings with many many ppl (in which case it's a whole different kind of fun). now dont take this to mean that i dont like going out with the class in a big group, cos that's untrue. what im trying to say is that after all those times, it's definitely a refreshing change to be with a smaller group and just kinda interacting more in-depth so to speak. it was definitely fun and hopefully we can do it again sometime.

oh yes and for the rest of the week, i was on duty on tuesday. apparently i got caught in the rain abit and fell sick. woke up on wednesday in camp with a fever. 37.9deg! managed to get 2 days mc from the medical centre haha. so yeah im at home now and gotta go back tmr sigh. oh well. like i said, happening week man.
