a truly wonderful end to the academic year...
i can't quite remember what i did on the last day of school last year (i might have skipped it altogether), but i do remember on the day my exams ended in NJ, i went out right from the time my last paper finished all the way to midnight, eating ice cream at the haagen daaz outlet at raffles city...
oktoberfe(a)st tonight was, to my surprise, really fun...
the retro music was of questionable authenticity, the bands were of varying enjoyable quality, and the food wasn't that great (save for the really good apple crumble), but it was the company that was excellent...
my most memorable moment?
sitting on the astroturf first with jit/elendrus, then with my tedkin/mel/nic/cielo/cheryl/chunwui/elliot/johnchris listening to jc go at it with his guitar and eating the cookies tedkin baked, then talking to merv/lucy/sean while waiting for the councillors to finish clearing up (to paul: hey domestic!)
didn't join some of the class who were going to cw's place cos deon/sean/hanan and i cabbed to holland v's essential brew for drinks, finger food and dessert, and brilliant chat in a relaxing atmosphere overlooking holland road...
i'm gonna miss 2007...
its gonna be weird not saying five.nine anymore, but it was the same when it felt weird not saying four.eleven...
that said, six.nine.galilee is gonna be hectic...
like we asked ty -
how's it hangin' homeboy?
