End of the year!!!
What would you do if its end of the year? Well, this is wat i did…
Have been selling Snow and Streamers spray cans for Justin and Frank for the past few days dating back to last Christmas.
25/12/05:
Sales weren’t that fantastic on the X’Mas night. But we had lots of fun playing the sprays, and then we had dinner at Lau Pat Sat before we headed back to Base in Justin’s van. Actually we planned for a morning jog at MacRitchie the next morning but we slept at 0430hrs in the morning and by the time we woke up… Its already 1130hrs, and raining. So? Run was cancelled.

Went to BASE for pot luck, I brought some home made Macaroni cooked by me. Had hell lots of fun at the gathering and also added a few kilos to my weight… Haiz… haha… Then plans were made for the night after the pot luck session. We then decided to try our luck selling the sprays at Pasir Ris Chalets… We went to pick Doreen up at her friend’s apartment before we head to our location. Been a real long time since I’ve been back there… There are Challenge Rope Course there in the chalet mann… can’t believe that. We tried our best selling and sales weren’t really good as we were there late and people were already heading home from the chalets. So we had a walk along the park to scout for any possibility of sales. Nope… Not good… Down Town east was next… Justin, Darren and Doreen headed into the chalet while Frank, WeiJeah, Karyn, Limin and I waited outside and we tried selling… Not bad mann… a drunken lady brought 6 from us… haha… good start… Then we waited for the rest to come. Not good… So we decided to head to some where for supper, with the left over food from the pot luck that is… We headed to Labrador Park, along the way passing by Esplanade and Mt. Faber where preparation for the New Year Countdown 2006 is in the final stage. Along the way brought back lots of memories, it’s actually the route that we took when we ran from Outram to Labrador Park… It started off with Justin and me, and then Limin joined in, then Frank. Time really flies mann… in a blink of an eye; tml will be the end of 2005. I’m gonna make my finally day of 2005 a wonderful one!!! We had our there and we played some games to keep ourselves entertained… Then we sent everyone back home… I reached home at 0500hrs in the morning.

Woke up after 6hrs of sleep. Then I slack for a while… Called Limin for some discussion of the plans for tonight activities. We were to meet up and head to Base to put our barang barang before heading to Boat Quay to meet up with Justin and co. Saw AE86 parked at the street. Then we saw Doreen and Karyn… We joined in the sales team. After a few rounds of shouting, a guy in plain clothes approached us… “Who is the boss here?” He asked while holding a warrant card bearing the Singapore Police Force crest and his photo. “……” we dare not say a word, seriously… We just looked at each other… “U all have to clear this place before we come back from a 2nd round of patrol, and we’ll confiscate all items here, is that clear?” he warned. What did we do? Of cos we agreed la… then we called our boss, Justin and frank. Final decision is to proceed to Frank’s location - Clark Quay. Along the way there Karyn was still trying to sell the sprays to the publics but not much sales. When we reached the Read Bridge where Frank was positioned, we quickly get into war mode and started to sell the sprays… The bridge was full of people and it was already a war zone there where strangers were starting up war with one another with the only Weapon of Mass Destructions we were selling… Haha… kinda think back now, we’re just like the U.S, we stared the war with passer by who did not have spray cans in their hands, then this make them buy sprays from us and fight the war with us… How brilliant… Thanks BUSH… We had all our cans sold out in just say about 30mins into 2006… we were worried that we were not able to get the sales done, but it did eventually. With the Fireworks from Esplanade in a distance, and everyone cheering to welcome 2006, we had just completed the 1st task, to sell all the sprays…
01/01/06:
Once the sales was done, we headed back to the van to roughly calculate the $$ from the sales. Then it was decided that we shall go for dinner…, supper?? Or maybe breakfast… Hmmm… Whatever u wanna call it… we settled down at a Seafood Restaurant at Geylang. Had a nice meal and we headed back home… and Base… We reached Base at Approx. 0430hrs… Had a shower and then we headed to bed…? The night was cool and then in the morning, it started to pour… so we kept sleeping till arnd 1030hrs. Nothing to do as it was pouring heavily outside and we decide to play Risk. Then till noon the rain subsided and we decided to start our 1st Resolution for 2006. MacRitchie run… This time round the distant is from Base to Jelutong Tower and back. It was a nice run… A nice view at Jelutong tower on a new year’s day… After the run, we went makan at Shunfu market. Then we go back to base to wash up. We also decided to call off the initial plan of going KTV as we r poor people… so we need to do things that doesn’t required $$… So we Play Risk again… And Justin was the Ultimate loser as the U.S (Darren) had once again proven itself by getting all its allies to fulfill his wishes (Getting rid of Justin from the board). Yes, Justin lost. But we still got to fill our stomach. So we decided to head to Thompson to have our dinner and supper… After our dinner at a Chinese stall, we head to the Prata house further down the road to have a drink. After which, we then finally decided that its time to head home… Long day of activities for my 1st day of 2006. Happy New Year Everyone!!!
