Essentials

Yay! Off day. Ok so now Friday is my fave day. Haha.

Today i went out with Michelle. We took the train to Raffles Place and went to this Ocean building for out medical checkup. It was high-class, man. Haha. Some kinda office tower.

I thought we were early(we met at 9.30am), but there were already tons of people there. Mostly students. We went to the reception and the nurse told us to come back at 2pm, cause the most they could take was thirty students. Sad. Haha. We wanna get this done asap. We saw people from NCHS. Haha.

So we went off and went to Somerset. There's another branch of this Genith-Jones clinic there. At Orchard building, 8th floor. Again they told us to come back at two. So we went to walk around in Cineleisure(the shops weren't even opened yet! It was 11am!) and then to Heeren. Went to Esprit and Mich wanted to buy this top. Forgot the price. I think it was around $26.90. But she wanted to buy it later. We then walked around in Levi's. So so so so exp! haha. It's Mich's interest to buy branded goods now. HAHAHA.

I went to look for Avril's Under My Skin, the original version. But no, they only had the Jap version. And mind you, it was $53. Daylight robbery! Haha. But it had the songs i don't have presently. Nice songs. In the end i ended up buying "Maximum Avril Lavigne", the unauthorised biography of Avril Lavigne.

We went up to the highest floor to start our shopping. Meanwhile, at the 2nd/3rd floor, we saw Shi Yan near the escalator. He was with Ming Xuan and Guo Hong, who were in a shop looking at bears. Seems like a lot of people are going to TP. But mostly business courses. Phew. Haha.

I bought a tie(again) at 77th street. I used M's VIP card. No discount leh. They only add credits into the card. It's a checkered one, like those kinda Scottish red-black-green design. Love its design. Haha. Then we went to take neoprints.$10. The photos came out well. Most of the time they do. Hees.

After that we went to walk around before heading back to the clinic. It was around 1.35pm then.

There wasn't as much people as before in the morning. So we did the registration and waited for the clock to strike 2pm. Meanwhile we looked around for handsome guys and ugly girls. Haha. There was one girl who was wearing a panda t-shirt and a flowery-billowy skirt with those kinda slip-in auntie shoes. She was there with her mother and looked so childish. And yet, like what Mich said, she had her hair dyed. But not nice. At least it isn't up to standard compared to mine.(HAHAHA.)

Then the doctors came(from nowhere) and the nurse called us in. I think they didn't call us in order, cause Michelle submitted her form before I did. I thought i was the first one, cause no one was before me. The nurse took my height and weight and checked my eyesight. I just anyhow-ed through. When i was about to stand on the machine, I put my bag on the floor. Before i even completed the action of placing my bag on the floor, the girly panda girl suddenly offered her help to help me take it. I said "It's Ok. I'll just put it on the floor" Sorry, but i don't need your help. Then we were given plastic cups(H-U-H?) and told to pee(hahas) at the handicapped room.

The 'collection of urine' went smoothly, but the guys at the clinic are so stupid. Why can't they build a toilet in there? We(I) had to walk from Room 4(Height & Weight) into the waiting area, out of the clinic, go to the toilet, pee into the semi-transparent cup, walk back all the way into the clinic, go into Room 5, and place the cup down. And all the while BEING STARED BY PEOPLE. Hahaha. What a joke. I thought I held the cup too high. Haha. I placed down the cup and came in second! Hurray! Wahaha.

Meanwhile I went to wait again. After a few minutes Michelle was called in. Somehow i didn't see her and and only noticed her when she came back from Room 5. And so we waited. I was given the blue form we had filled in earlier and there was '100' written on it. Queue no., i guess.

Later the red words '100' flashed on the board and i went in to Consulation Room 1. Male doctor. He showed me a booklet to see if i am colour blind. Then he asked some questions. I was told to lie down on the bed and got knocked on the stomach. Anyhow-ed through too. "I've forgotten", "Don't know" etc. Haha. The doctor then gave me a pink form, together with my medical report, to be brought for the X-ray. I went to the reception and was told to go up to the 10th floor for the X-ray. They took away the medical report and asked me to come back on Wednesday to collect. So troublesome.

By then Mich was not called yet. So i went up. It took only a short wait before i went for the x-ray. They said i could leave after that. So i went down again. Mich was still there, waiting. So we awaited. And finally she was called in. Quite a long time. Longer then mine.

While waiting outside the clinic, i was glancing here and there when i heard the nurse called out "Cheng Ee Shan". Oops. Primary school classmate. Ok. Just to be sure... Ok. Confirmed her identity. Yeah it was her. Luckily she didn't recognise me. By the way she had a sticker on her butt. Hahaha.

Went up again... Waited... Ok. Done. Finally. 3.40pm already.

We went back to Heeren again.(Gotta check out Queen's Couture and buy M's shirt.) Nothing much at Queen's. And guess what! We met Shiyi and gang. Argh. Shit. Yeah. Many peeps are going to TP! Only me doing design so far. Walked around again. She bought the shirt and i bought a cap. Green with a skull in front.

Then we decided to go to Far East Plaza. It was starting to rain. After reaching FEP and a lil' soaked, we went to the basement and walked around. Nothing much. So we walked back to Wisma Atrium. Nothing much. And we went to Takashimaya. Boring. Then we went back to the Orchard MRT station.

6.30pm. We reached CP. Bought bubble tea and took LRT(cos it was raining heavily). Got off at Renjong station. And walked to NCHS. Chiong-ed into the school to avoid gettting wet. The campfire hadn't even started.(NPCC ALTC) And they siad &pm they will start. So we sat around and chatted amongst ourselves. Then we went to sit at the 'Seniors' benches'. Haha. Wah. Watied so long. It only started at 9++pm when Mr Tien F-I-N-A-L-LY arrived. Yes. Let's get this started.

They did the same thing again and again, year after year. So BORING. We left at around 9/45pm. Michelle was tired, and i couldn't take it anymore.

Ahhh. Home sweet home. Going to work at 11am tomorrow to make up for the half hour of work.

Bored.

Yay! I got my Hawthorn balls! =>

21 days to freedom. Three. More. Weeks.
