My 23rd Birthday!

Today marks the twenty-third year of my life...

...*pauses for a while to think of some bombastic word to insert*

...

Ah, screw fanciful vocab! I suck at blogging. Let's just summarize my day in my usual "no-frill" writing style:

So I woke up at 0900hr and got changed for my lunch-cum birthday bash over at "Irodori", a Japanese ala-carte style restaurant located inside Riverview Hotel, Havelock Road. The night earlier, I was level-grinding my characters in the PS3 srpg Disgaea 3 like there was no tomorrow, so I lacked sleep and looked as fresh as an overripe banana.

Zoomed down few hours later, and the ten of my relatives plus me finally finished our big feast at around 1500hr. Cue the chocolate birthday cake and we left the place with over-bloated tummies. I collected a handful of red packets, and being a gaming-nerd with new found money, all I could think of was buying "Mana Khemia 2" for the PS2 that had hit my local game store today!

There was still time till night, I had a choice of going to Plaza Singapura with my mum, or to my cousin/godsister's friend's birthday bash over at Aloha Loyang chalet (c0mplicated). Wanting to try something different (and maybe wanting to pick up a chick's number, or two), I went along with my cousin as a somewhat uninvited guest.

Things didn't went well, and I found myself blowing countless balloons at the chalet. It was my way of helping out with the party set up, but if you would think about it, that was weird for another birthday boy (me) was doing the "sai-kang" and not enjoying himself. I finished the job eventually, and went to take a stroll at the nearby beach with my cousin and her two rather lovely girl-friends. Absolutely nothing happen though, and I could only smacked myself in the face for the total failure of even introducing myself. OH WELL.

Left early because I needed to drop by at the game shop to collect my goods. The dudes at the shop were particularly generous today, and gave me a discount of S$3.00 for the game when I told them it was my birthday. Sweet!

So here is my copy of Mana Khemia 2, taken directly with my iMac webcam.

Note that the picture is mirrored. Do not know how to flip the photo to correct it = PHAIL.

I will probably do gaming for the rest of the day. Zzz

Oh yea, I went over to the Army Open House at Pasir Lebar camp. I got excited over it for nothing. Not very worth going, especially if you are not in a guided tour. It will still be on until 7th Sept, if anyone is still keen on going.

And I finally created an account in the oh-so-hot Facebook! And on my birthday too! Add me!
