the day we decided to have a stroll

it was saturday and CK and i were dead bored. decided to go apply for internet line, but we had to go meet up with a friend of CK for lunch first.

on the MRT, i noticed something gay. or depressing, or desperate for attention, or all 3, or add any other word that you could think of.

pink shoes? wooooo cute chick??

ON THIS GUY?!?! GAY DORK.

bad way to start our day. friggin dork. anyway we had lunch at Bugis Junction, nothing much to describe about that part of the day, usual taste of singaporean food. went on to have drinks before goin to Starhub customer service centre wanting to apply, but the queue was too damn long. CK had this idea of goin for a walk, what the heck, waste a weekend at home again? LETS GO!

we started off from Somerset station, walking across Canning Park, a park situated between City Hall and Dhoby Gaut stations. pretty neat park, the government really spends at greening the environment, but people rarely use them haha.

(far right) just like a scene from the Notting Hill movie

entrance to a garden where you can get married at, SWEET!

reached Dhoby Gaut, and had a stroll over to Clarke Quay, where we met up with Joshua's(another housemate) girlfriend (his roommate..DUH!) where she worked at. walked through the riverside, where it's happening especially during weekend nights.

pubs, restaurants, cafes, and even Hooters Singapore (too bad didnt take pic, or enter)

from Clarke Quay, we head on next to Marina Bay, where the construction for singapore's first casino is taking place.

lego skills

half lion, half fish, most probably the second most retarded thing after the fella who wore pink shoes.

london has one, KL has one, now, singapore have one too! get one installed AT YOUR HOUSE NOW! call toll free 1800-pimp-my-house!

the esplanade, nice architecture, boring purpose (convention centre)

a bird at Clarke Quay and it's huge J.Lo ASS.

a conversation between englishman, chinese, malay, pimp.

after the tiring walk, i wanted to go for a dip. unfortunately authorities over there stopped me from skinny dipping.

error @ previous post

sorry, the house search was on Sunday, instead of Monday, raymond actually did his medical checkup and crap on Monday.

apologies to all those who were wanking to that post.

everybody loves raymond @ singapore, 1st - 3rd august

no, not raymond "ray" barone, i meant raymond tan, an old friend of mine since primary school days.


he was happy to leave his former hell hole Genting, but unfortunately landed his ass into a bigger hell hole, singapore lol. he needed help to search for a room to rent, and who did he come to for help? the wrong guy, me. why? a newbie helping a newbie, lets get dangerous!

didnt really do much on saturday, except making calls to some agents to check on available rooms, same case on sunday, we couldnt get to view any rooms, and we had nothing to do on that nite so we went for a stroll down orchard road.

monday. the fun begins. made calls again like the past two days, but this time we had the chance of seeing a room at Dhoby Gaut, a station away from his future working place. we met up with this agent named CJ, probably initials for his name, nice indian chap, arent all real estate agents? when we reached the block where the room was, first thought was "not bad la...". so CJ brought us up to the room, actually, brought us up, walked half the block, went down a stairs, that's where we arrived at the lot. he kept insisting that the landlord is a nice fella and keeps the place simple and tidy...so as we entered...simple IS DEFINITELY the word to describe it. whole place was empty, and damn it was simple. "ok" was what i told raymond, till we got to the room he asked for.

next word in my mind : "OKAAAY". the room was like some medieval age room during the times when the Holy War began, tiles are ancient, bed IS ancient, walls are ancient, closet ...well, present. and CJ had to brag about the closet, tapping at it while saying "it's a good closet, you can keep alot of things in it". ok thanks for upselling the closet, how bout we check out the rest of the house?

bachelor house with a fridge full of beers (checked it) and kitchen stove used few hundred years ago (deadly)

i HAD to take this next pic.

my hometown have way better looking toilets than this.

and CJ was like "yeah it's simple place, nice place and strategic." raymond asked about the landlord and the other tenant, they were two indian christians who're like in their late 30s.

me : hell no i'm not coming here to find you if you're staying here.
raymond : better not stay here, later the landlord feel boring, knock on my door, and rape me.

best quote from CJ : "if i put up this room on the ad, it'll snap up in no time". HAHA yeah if anyone wants to go for war.

i figured out what the initials CJ meant, it's Cuckoo Jiao. well, raymond told CJ he'll confirm about taking the room later in the evening.

we got lucky and got ourselves another room to check out, this time at Toa Payoh, about 6 stops away from his workplace. so we ch-ch-ch-checked it out.

a proper definition of "a room for rent".

owner is a chinese family of 3, nice fella who speaks english (thank god) and has the same surname as raymond (owner : i'm Tan, you also Tan, hah hah hah!). raymond confirmed this room, and shoved CJ's crap up his arse.

best quote from Mr.Tan : if you want wireless, you subscript la.
raymond's been using the word ever since.

caution : sudden snore may erupt

chow yun fatt : welcome to singapore!

raymond : down...damn down.

the one that happened two weeks ago

we were snoozing until we got a knock on our door followed with "IKEA". suprisingly my roommate CK woke up to get the door, especially when he wont even budge even if someone robs the house. two chinese santa clauses entered dragging in our new bought stuffs, two beds! we were stingy, cause if we got them to set it up for us, it'll be 20% of the receipt.

wooden lego

the manual provided wasnt so confusing, although at first we had a bad start cause both of us had half opened eyes, but we managed to sort things out in no time.

took us about an hour to set up both frames, nothing much to elaborate about it tho.

after getting them up and ready, CK gave it a test.

lazy ass.

used up some brain cells, and the room ended up like this.

brand new floor plan, for now.

will be back for the next post, probably later tonight lol.
