12:05:00 AM

Met up with Daolin and Licia last night, Henry supposed to be there, but he couldn't make it.

Anyway, met Daolin first at my place, where we proceeded to Macs for dinner (Wanda's gonna kill me if she reads this so SHHHHHHHH).

After that, our dear Daolin decided to "dabao", or for those of you who don't do singlish, takeaway, his nuggets. So he happily walked with me to Liquid Kitchen carrying this ugly, McDonald's plastic bag. Already damn unglam right? Allow me to continue.

For those who haven't been to Liquid Kitchen, allow me to describe the place.

It's a semi high-class (notice, SEMI) chill-out place for people with too much cash. Why? Cuz one single cup (the puny ones) of Early Grey Tea can cost $5.90.

So, as you can imagine, Liquid Kitchen isn't exactly the place to go to carrying a McDonald's plastic bag.

So anyway, service wasn't fantastic either. We had to wait 5 minutes just to get a seat, and not cuz the place was that bloody crowded.

The waitress saw us, saw us waiting, yet she chose to attend to other customers who were already seated comfortably on their well-cushioned behinds. Ugh!

Daolin heard me cursing under my breath, and suggested, maybe we just don't look rich enough. So, when he wasn't looking, I took out a wad of notes (not school notes dumb dumb, MONEY!) and started counting casually. Note, it wasn't my money, had to withdraw cash for my parents.

So anyway, upon seeing the wad of cash in my hands, the waitress responded quickly, coming over with a big cheesy (and fake) smile on her overly made-up face. We finally got our seats.

So we went up, and waited for Licia. Finally, that char bo called, and she's like, where's Liquid Kitchen. This coming from a girl who's been to my place dozens of times, and who lives near me.

So I go, just face my place from the bus stop. Den turn right.

Licia: Oh, towards Macs ah?

Me: NOOOOOOOO!!!! That's your left!!!!

Daolin: *dissolves in fits of laughter*

Licia (after 2 minutes): OHHHHHHHHHHH! I see you now! Coming up now!

Me: *faints*

So Licia's there, and the trio's complete. We try rather unsuccessfully to get the waiter's attention, and when we finally do, the entire ordering process takes 7 bloody minutes.

So we wait like 20 minutes for our drinks, and they weren't even some kinda fancy cocktails.

Honey Soda, Honey Jasmine and Daolin's was some Tropical Jasmine. 20 bloody minutes. Ugh!

So when the drinks came, Licia was bored enough to take out the slice of orange from each glass, and piece them together. I swear, that girl is easily amused.

Daolin: Uh... What are you doing?

Licia: Putting the orange slices together.

Me: Why?

Licia (finding out that the 3 slices fit perfectly together): EHHHH! Same orange!

Daolin and I: -_-'''

For those of you who don't speak twit, here's what Licia meant.

The slice of orange from each of our glasses, were from the same orange.

See what vocalists from bLiTz! do when they're bored? Ah well. Good night everyone!

You always say you’re bright and early. Well, at least the early part’s true.
