Gathering of the Pigs 2

Hee hee, why do I name this blog of mine with a "2" at the end..?
Actually, there was this post with the same title back in the early days when I started blogging. (If I remembered correctly... the article with this title was my very second post.)
True enough, it was dated June 2005... and it goes to show that the 4 of us haven't seen each other together for more than a year. Was scanning through all my posts and felt really silly with some of them. Ha ha, maybe years from now, I will be laughing at what I'm typing today if I still have the habit of blogging... But I guess it would be quite interesting. This Blog was meant to be a journal... to help me remember the happy times, sad happenings and memorable events. A good way to see my growth over the years... Well, even right now, there are still tons of stuffs for me to learn... To learn to be a better person, to cope with different things, and to learn things that will be useful for my career. =)
Anyway, with this blog title... it could only mean 1 thing. I'm meeting my group of JC close friends from Chinese Cultural Society, to sort of meet up and have my birthday meal.. The 4 of us used to call ourselves "The Pigs" and the story goes all the way back.
We schedule to meet 2.30 pm at Plaza Singapura, but the 2 ladies were late... so me and Boon Cheong waited for them at Macs. We decided to have our late lunch at Manhattan Fish Market. First time I ate there and I would say its quite good... I had Fish n Chips and tropical breeze. From the topic of our conversation, I could literally feel the change in ourselves, our topic has over matured over the years. In the past, its always about school work, gossips about classmates or teachers, we then moved on to talking about gers, guys and relationships, about work, and today about housing, money and kids, ha ha. At the back of the restaurant was a projector showing different breeds of marine animals that you'll get to see during diving... another sign hinting me that I should go for my diving trip. Probably not so soon though as October is the start of the monsoon season, and I will have to wait for another 3-6 months.
After lunch, we went to Secret Recipe for dessert and I had a cup of Oreo Milkshake. We walked around Daiso for a short while before bidding farewell to each other. We each had plans for the night and mine was to meet up with Wei Wen and gang to celebrate his birthday. Was still early so I accompanied Felicia and her cousins to go shopping at Marina Square before heading back to Parklane around 7 pm.
Was walking to Paradiz centre when Kah Wai caught me and dropped me a message, which I realize only after a few games at the arcade. He was sitting with his friends in one of the pubs opposite Parklane to watch Liverpool's match and happen to see me walk past.
10 of us... Wei Qiang, Wei Wen, Melvin, Vincent, Wen Hao, KC, MK, Yong Kang, SY and me decided to meet up and play DotA at Parklane to sort of celebrate Wei Wen's birthday. We played for 6 games till 2 am before calling it a "day", ha ha. Out of the 6 games we played, I was lucky enough to won 4 of them, and it indeed a fun and enjoyable night. =)
Time to sleep... Another day without studying... gonna get scolded by someone...

I decided to quit DOTA after the 6 games, It was just too much.
