Today had an outing with my special circle of NJ dudes. Its a chance to meet Mark once in a hols kind of thing from his vacation back from the States. Anyway, he didn’t really eat alot of western food over there, and we sort of decided on going to PS for lunch at Manhattan Fish Market. Zong, Mark and Dom shared a Fishermen’s Seafood Platter I think. Me, Ken and jh shared a Seafood Platter for 2, and a Flaming Prawn Platter for 1. Not bad! Then we had a mix of fried fillet and grilled fish. And they actually flamed the prawns in front of you. Dunno if jh ate alot, (I was busy eating my own share ) but our side finished the food first, and I still had time to “steal” the rice and fries over from the other guys. Haha, Mark already gave up eating… The food actually tasted not bad, with a fairly large portion I believe, except that ermz… it ain’t exactly enough for us! At least I believe jh is trying to leave food for the rest of us guys too, haha!

Then of course after paying the bills that went slightly over 100 bucks, it became a problem of 6 guys figuring out what to do… Wasted time at ZoneX since it was raining. Most of us did not play actually. We just watch jh pwn the com in Arcana Heart. And then jh pwn Mark twice in KoF (didn’t take note which version) jh has the audacity to pick all 3 random… and still look away at times, or purposely let Mark kill 1 of his chars… But oh well… this is jh… we hardly get to see the 3rd char come out. However, I must still say he is still not the pro-est KoF friend I have. Mr Kazuya regularly 一打三 while being 3 random as well… even against players who think they are good. For good measure… his best game is Counter-Strike… jaw gaping rifle head-shots at long range with zero cross-hair… 1 of the pride of Singapore in the gaming arena ok… don’t play play.

Oh no, better get back to the outing before I digress too far. Rain stopped, we walked to Meridien looking to play pool. But somehow… no tables leh, and only managed to locate 1 shop… the rest 倒闭 le meh…? And so Mark suggested to us one of his fave activities, to go Cineleisure play XBox360. Comeon man… he chose Halo3. Most of us have no experience of the game lah. The movement is not easy, kinda 不习惯 with a controller with shooters. I guess I become accustomed to the WASD and mouse combi le. Not surprisingly, Mark making most of the kills. Oh well, I did have some after I spent some time looking for cool looking badass weapons. I admit for a shooter, this one is loaded with a really huge arsenal of varied weapons. And running over your opponents in a vehicle ain’t a bad idea too. Changed game to Dead or Alive 4 halfway thru, and to be honest, I also don’t have much experience with it. (Same goes for a few of us) Despite trying my best to learn proper moves, it appears that button mashing seems to be the way forward for us. Ok… jh, Mark and Dom seems to be the better players in this… jh just can play any fighting games can’t he…

Oh well, busy Mark had another outing, so its the official end of our outing. Me and Ken went to Wisma with Zong to attack the SE service center. Saw my 四叔 and his wife along the way, haha. And I also thought I saw Geraldine at Wisma, shrugs, could be wrong though, just a brief glance at a crowded area with a partially side view. The idiotic thing is makaning dinner. Really pissed off at people who purposely take their own sweet time after finishing the food. This is the friggin’ crowded city area ffs. Damn damn dammit, once again I hope I have the power to smite such inconsiderate people. Glad I decided to take train with Ken home. At least there’s someone to talk to along the way. Haha… First train came pretty soon, and the next 2 I had effectively a zero waiting time Even if I took the cheaper bus route, wonder what are the chances of having a seat, which we surprisingly got on the train quite early on.

So today marks the end of Mark(s), at the very least until the next vacation I believe. Just for info, construction worker earns 200USD an hour?!@#! omg… What kind of special construction is that… I also want sia… Or better still, be the foreman, which I believe should earn more right?
