My best friend....(I know, sounds so corny) just left this morning. *sob* But it's alright, she'll come back next year to attend Theen's wedding! WoooHooo!

Anyway, we had a blasting night.. okay, the word 'blasting' doesn't really fit in, but we had a really really fun night.

Instead of having usual stuffs like farewell dinner or party, we had a farewell LAMI (or rummy)!

We're a bit anti-social sometimes. We prefer to stay with the old time buddies rather than going out and make new friends. And after a long day of work, sometimes staying at a friend's place and talk crap all night seems to be the best and relaxing.

She wanted to cook us some dessert, cocktail 西米露 (si-mi-lu)... Erm.. I don't know what you call that, it's the white transparent thingie we call "Sago". Any clue?

It was Wen's first time... But no worries, we have a great sifu, Mr PSL! Muahahhahahahha! There's four of us... 3 girls and 1 guy. And.. the only person who has cooking experience happens to be the only male! So he became our consultant and chef.

Hehe. Wen's house is one of the few place that we all can wear rotten tees (that we wear to sleep) with the loose short pants and simply open her fridge to see if there's anything to eat, last time lah, now seldom liao.

Except for Swee Leong, who still dressed up so nice.. PSL, don't you ever wear short pants?

He claimed that the shirt he was wearing is his sleeping tee. You believe?

My favourite friends of all time,
in Wen's kitchen.

(who can tahan my blurness, clumsiness & kpo-ness)

Ai..Talk, I mean Write so long liao still haven't introduce you the main climax of the night,

LAMI!

and also, Swee Leong's creation-
Cocktail Si-mi-lu

That guy kept nagging that he prefers honeydew or mango, which he promised to cook me a year or two ago. Taste a bit weird because of the cocktail.

And says it's cheaper to buy ala-karte instead of buying the ready-mix one. Uncle leh...?

We played only for 2-circle. That girl,48 won too much liao. And Theen wanted to go home because it was late already.. Late as in 11.00pm.

(oh, I forgot to mention, 48 is the nick I named her. Pronounce it in Mandarin, 'shi-baht)

Hey, don't forget it's weekday! 11.00pm is considered late for us who needs to wake up early to work the next day.

We didnt't use chip to play. Just manually write down the..debts?

Oh, and Shane.. I think he got bored just sitting down there and seeing us play. Next time ya, next time stay longer and I bring you to Kampong Ayer and have a ride in the water taxi.

It's really rare and cool to have friends for such a long time, not just normal friends.. but, friends you can count on. Friends to throw everything to when you're feeling all sad and down. Friends to rant the worst day of your life.

(This is so not like me..saying all this cheesy things.)

You know, whenever I see "Friends forever" in someone's so-called autograph or Friendster testimonials, it kind of kept me thinking, is it only said for fun, for showing and taken lightly?

Or they are people just like me, taking the "Friends Forever" seriously?

I want to grow old, and find Wen, Theen and SweeLeong out to those old-people-street, order teh-C and roti kahwin, and sit in the kopitiam for the whole morning.

We girls will be having the sotong-ball hairs wearing those tailor made floral prints shirt and pants, and maybe put a handkerchief underneath my ketiak, I mean armpit. Swee Leong will be wearing those black colour cowboy hat carrying a black umbrella everywhere he go!

Or, we'll gossip under the big tree at our grandchildren's primary school waiting for recess or pick them home.

Hhahahhah!!!! So funny just by imagining it!




p/s: I don't why I always look so ugly and fat while taking pictures with them..
