Tomorrow....

I shall travel to Redang...

While it is a company trip, I don't fancy myself enjoying too much. No, I have nothing against sandy beaches and lovely corals, but the sheer thought of spending such quality time with 'strangers' and not....

Hmm, maybe I should try to regurgitate my whole experience? I don't expect much to happen, as I'm sure I'll be bored stiff and end up all by myself (due to my un'happening' character)...

In any case, someone's B'day is today and I hope he scores....And I mean well, you punk..

Another person's B'day is tomorrow and I hope she has a good time after clearing her taxes...

In any case, your birthdays could not be worse than mine!!

Singapore, 5th March and beyond (should be conclusion)

Ok, ok, it's been 1 month already and I haven't finished this story...So let's move straight to where we left off.

So the tourney is over, and we decided to go for a little snack..So where do we go to snack?? Burger King of course!! I decided to go for the 3 burger for $10 Sing combo, while the other 3 shared the combo (yes, my snack cost me RM 25).... Then we proceeded to go to the hotel and slept...Guess a day of wrestling can be rather tiring....

Later I woke up about nine and we decided we should go do some snacking, and later the rest of the gang wanted to go cybercafe...Some of us seems to have important things to do online...like update Fantasy League teams!

So Sunday night was almost like nothing happened.....Wait, let's think for awhile.....Actually Loco went to meet up and hang out with friends, me & Dawn slept, and Azmin went cybercafe after we returned from the tournament...Then Loco returned and we started to return back borrowed items....And Dawn showed her promo card, the Atomic Powerbomb Suplexbuster Piledriver Bulldog DDT of Doom.......And me and Loco began a bidding/pleading war for Dawn to sell/give it to us...We didn't succeed, of course..Then we went mamak and after that....The next morning....

Woke up about 7am and everyone started packing up. We decided that we'd look for the closest bus stop and get a ride across the causeway and then get a ride from JB to KL...Unfortunately we left rather early on a Monday, and no shopping complex opened yet...Oh, Oh, (see, memory failing me), we actually wanted to take the MRT to the last stop that let's a get a bus across the causeway, but no one remembered which train it was and how to get there. So we stumbled to the nearest MRT station, Bugis, I think and was advised by the counter person to take a bus across instead. So here we have, 4 persons with heavy bags over our shoulder, being directed to the bus station behind the church around the corner...Piece of cake, right?

Wrong. We got back up (the station was underground) and lo and behold...what church? Just outside the entrance was a bus stop, so we thought this must be it. Only to find out that no buses really go across the causeway from here, and Azmin's 1st attempt to get directions was a failure as he ended up asking a (what i think is) Vietnamese....After further enquiries with other locals, we were finally shown the way and had to walk another 10 minutes before finding the church...Even then, we had to make another enquiry (what would we have done without Azmin asking random strangers) before realising the bus stop was behind the church....

Actually, I saw the bus stop behind the church, but who would believe me??? Ok, so we found the bus stop, got on a bus that crosses the causeway, corssed the causeway, had no problems with Immigration, and finally reached the JB bus station. After resisting bus operators hoping to get us to hop on the next bus out to KL, simply because we were hungry (haven't taken breakfast) and I still had stomach issues, we stopped by McDonalds. Once we have had our meals, and Azmin & Loco having another 'eye' experience, we got on the bus and head back to KL....

And there rest is now history....Sorry it took so long to complete this story, but I'm glad it's finally finished. I'll be back, Singapore, stronger than ever and I promised, next year, I'll make top 16. Else, I'll retire......




NOT!!!
