3 days to Christmas

Yesterday night, I went pool with Kate, Jamie and Joey. They were expecting Pat, but Pip showed up instead. Boy, were they disappointed! lol.

The nice people at Club 9 gave us free buffet dinner for their 1st Anniversary. Safe to say, we clocked in hundreds of cumulative hours “working” there (on our pool skills, of course!). Ahh, the good times, of waiting til the wee hours in the morning for “promises of a free laptop, motorbike, what else?”

Taylor’s graduation will be 31 Jan 2010. The UniSA peeps won’t be doing it with us :( instead we at UTS are paired up with guys from Foundation and Diploma. Wonder how that will pan out!

I overheard them saying that its Chinese Christmas soon: December 22nd is a big occassion for many Chinese homes. It is celebrated with the making of tongyuen (cantonese), tangyuen (Mandarin) or kueh ee (Hokkien dialect). In the olden days, the grandmothers are very strict with the making of tongyuen.

During our session just now, it was funny to hear Kate’s dream wedding would include the Wedding Entrance Dance [Chris Brown - Forever]! lol. Just curious to hear other girl’s wedding dreams. Me? 3 options:

A – Garden party, buffet style where whole kampung shows up, cham cha, the end. kthxbie we off to manchester for huneymoon!

B – Traditional Chinese event at restaurant / hotel, do it 2nd time at “her” town. Objective: Make parents / relatives happy.

C – via the Internet… get 100s of ppl to come “online”, do it via video, .. then Catan and Monopoly at a good Mc Donald’s restaurant! Then of course, air lifted via helicopter.

Let’s do something crazy today! Coney Tuesday, Mr. Koay?

Trapped in my TRAP!

Ok, So I got Ace-9.

Flop Ace-8-9. Hmmm… this is a big table, 100k buy-in. 4 other big guns loaded, I’m first to act, or under-the-gun as they call it. Worst position, but hey, I got good cards, right?

I check. And it checked around the table!

Turn card was a Queen. Scary card. Again, out of position, I checked. No one played, 1 folded, perhaps couldn’t take the pressure!

River was 6. All different suits, so no chance of a flush draw. Someone raise all-in 4,000. Next player re-raised 50,000. I was so freaking confident I committed all my 100,000 chips all-in (Melvyn gave). Turns out my two pairs was beaten by a Set of eights. Dammit.

So depressed now. Waiting for a Pool table at Club 9, no action. Tomorrow’s a Sunday; and I plan to take time off my busy week. Every day, its eat-sleep-exam-yum cha-pool .. you know, the typical routine.

Went to Bangsar for some Chinese food. And yes, my photo stream works now. See if Maxis comes up with a better data plan, cheaper.. or else each photo will cost me RM 1? Argh..

Whoa, its mid June already. Gotta lay out my plans and schedule for the remainder of the months. If not, my life will be wasted away in nothingness. Anybody up for doing some crazy shit? Like Genting, all-in our life savings? OK lah, Penang trip it is… at a “safe” speed ok, Lukas?

See how Patrick tomorrow come back from Penang. And Jeniffer coming back from Semenyih. But there’s Salsa class at 6pm at the GYM tomorrow. And lunch, Manhattan Fish Market! Wootzah!

Nice Christian Girls

Whoa… Facebook REALLY know my needs. Guess what I found while browsing some pictures!!!!

Hmmm

I tried Facebook Ads before. They were SUPER strict while selecting and approving advertisements. I guess these dating sites were paying a premium. I keep advocating for businesses to advertise on Facebook. Its like US$0.15 per 1000 impressions… like to get the same effect on newspaper, you’ll be paying US$40 per 1000? Yeah, that’s how cheap FB is. And it is TARGETED.

Bottom line is, yeah, I know and HOPE you Christian girls are like her ;) *wink*

New apple iPhones VERY SOON.

But definately new Macbooks, cheaper, better, faster, stronger.

Had a good time with Melvyn, Yang Wei and Patrick at Club 9. Wasted 5 hours of our lives (and wads of cash) waiting for the lucky draw. We humans need hope. The little hope that we might win the Toshiba Laptop and 32″ LCD tv was good enough for us to stick around, despite being tired.

Learnt shitloads in marketing and business and psychological terms from yesterday’s experience!
