wedding, mahjong and winning 11 ... and my 1st paycheck from Shell

Thats how i spent this weekend.. =) The wedding lunch at a church at Fort Canning was nice, Jingling's wedding. Hitched a ride on Guifa's Jazz with Wheng and did some catching up with the successful boss, whose business had grown over the pass 4~6 years. Power. =D

After that was meeting yongxi and roy for dinner and winning 11 all the way till 11pm. Talk about fanatic. =P Chatted and relived the good old exam period during our final year where we played winning 11 every night when roy stayed over. Actually, we played winning 11 every single day when we were in hall. =P haha...

Then it was mahjong with fen, yongxi, wheng and i after the gals came back from the wedding dinner till 4 in the morning. And yx displayed his gentlemanly ways by sending fen back, much to our pleasant surprise. And we slept till 8 in the morning before heading over to Neptune Court to transport quite a bit of stuff. hmmm...

Headed back to Bedok for dessert at 85 market, where i get to meet my god-mother and say hi. =D Before back to more winning 11 with yongxi at Clearwater. Played till lunch where we had kfc with yx and his brother issac and some business talks. Watched hong kong drama serials and then napped before meeting my parents for dinner (Of course, yx and bro left for motor show after the HK serials. =P).

Since i obtained my 1st pay (strictly speaking not my 1st paycheck, but it IS a 5 year break since my last... =D), treated my family and wheng to dinner and also gave some allowance to my mom. Heh.. starting pay and i can afford to give her more than i could when i was back in the Navy... looks like having a degree does bring in more $$. So can spend more on family.. which is why i am rather hesitant on buying a car. Waiting for the lucky strike when i can win one ... =D

Well .... that's it to my packed weekend. =D A weekend well spent. Although next time will try to squeeze in some time at NUH as volunteer or at the hospice near woodbridge. Its a long time since i went there liao. hmmm.....
