AIRBORNE ALL THE WAY Friday, June 20, 2008


On Tuesday, me and J went to HF's annual [annual? more like holiday-al] party at her familiar Changi Safra chalets.
Did you know her dad's the president of Safra? I didn't.
Anyway. Along the way, we picked up Deep from RI. And then we had our usual argument about whether Changi Naval Base or Changi Village was better.
"Changi Naval Base!"
"Changi Village!"
"Changi Naval Base!"
"Changi Village!"
"Changi Naval Base!"
and so on.
[you notice CNB is mentioned more than CV. That should give you an obvious clue in trying to figure out where my loyalties lie.]
When we reached there, JH's friends were already upstairs playing their god-knows-what on more god-knows-whats.
How bloody interesting!
Anyway, HF takes us downstairs to let us play Call of Duty 4.
Naturally I get one of my famous mind-numbing headaches watching J swing his gun all over the place.
So we go bowling.
I score 2 strikes!
Ok...maybe 1 strike and one strike-spare.
Never heard of a strike-spare? First part of the frame you get a gutterball. Second part of the frame you get a spare. That's like getting a strike in the second frame.
Sadly I wasted my strike-spare.
Anyway.
After that we went to the arcade, where I spent my money on time crisis and that stupid game where you try to get more tokens.
I lost two bucks on that thing!
Then we trooped back to Chalet 38 'cause it was too hot to go out and play.
We watched the first disk of National Treasure 2.
Believe me, I NEVER want to watch a movie with that crowd I was watching a movie with.
Half the crowd's the know-it-alls: "Oh, this is gonna happen next!" "Oh, I know this part! This is where..." "This part's great! You see..."
I told them, "Don't you know how irritating and un-fun it is to watch a movie when you already know the facts thanks to some irritating know-it-alls?"
No use. They kept up with their endless, much-too-useful chatter.
And the other half.
People like [no offence, LT] HF.
"What's going on?" "Who is this?" "What's that?" "I thought..." "Hey, wait a minute!" "What did he say?" and the ever popular...
"Huh?"
Oh god.
Next we went to play bball. We booked the bball court and had the fastest, roughest, dirtiest game of bball ever played in the history of ameteurs.
No one played by the rules. Everyone was pinching, scratching, shoving, pulling, constricting, grabbing, snatching, and whatever other offensive whatever-these're-called you can think of.
[Just note: my english is good. Its just that I can't be bothered to think right now.]
Anyway.
Then, thanks to JH's indecisive friend [who initially suggested we play bball] we went to play street soccer. And then the indecisive friend ran off back to the chalet. That's wasting money, goddamnit.
Anyway, street soccer was a dismal failure.
So, we went back to the chalet and played RISK.
Congrats! HF and I made a great team. Although we only had one army in America I told her to try and conquer America, which we eventually did.
I'm sorry, eventually would have.
Still, we won the game. We had more armies than anyone else before everyone had to leave.
That's good.
Right?
I think it is.
Doesn't matter.
What matters is that it was a good reunion...
Although we were outnumbered by JH's friends.
That's 4 of us, people!
