my brother

ok, i know the title sounds like one of a primary school composition. you know, last time in primary school they were always asking us to write on topics like 'my pet' or 'my hero' or 'my best friend'.. that kinda thing? that time i always had to crack my brains on what to write but now i feel like i got a whole lotta things to say so i must blog it out in parts coz i don't have the mood to type a long entry today.

i super heart my bro la! he always makes me laugh.

i was just listening to rihanna's [take a bow] and he commented that she has limited vocab coz she keeps using the same words over and over again. i thought about it for like 3 secs then started singing," under my umbrella, ella ella.." and he ended off with," eh eh eh.." lolz. enough said.

then i went to watch a video of xiaxue getting her tongue pierced and we both kinda don't really like her so i said wait pierce already then she choke on her blood, then my bro said maybe her tongue will fall off. hah. but unfortunately neither happened la. its not that i hate her, i seriously admire and envy her for managing to make it so big in the blogosphere but she can be such a bitch sometimes!

anyway, i wanna pierce my belly! since 7 yrs ago.. but just didn't have the guts plus i wanted to wait till i lose weight. but i saw the video online and it looks bearable plus i don't really care how painful it is anymore.. hmm. ok i'm gonna pierce my belly before i go australia! or should i go there and pierce?

ok, i've been so hardworking today, updating my diary, my blog and my music collection!! lolz. but the only times i write in my diary are when something really important happens or when i'm extremely happy or sad or angry. basically when i'm having extreme emotions. go figure.

here we go again..

decisions decisions. and the question for today is..

should i sleep or stay up till my training at 8am later?

i really wanted to sleep early today but i came online and realised [dh] has been released till episode 17!!! so i thought why not just watch all the way till i have to wake up since i wasn't feeling particularly tired. BUT. i'm abit sleepy now and with only 3 hours left to sleep, i dunno if i should just sleep and try to wake up in time later or continue watching [dh], which is so tempting.

the thing is, i've been slacking ALOT these past few days. and i hate the feeling of bumming around! i mean, i love bumming (although after 1 week i'd probably get sian of doing nothing constructive with my life) but i hate the thought that i am actually bumming!! hai. miraculously, the past 2 weeks i actually worked harder than usual till fri when i just started nua-ing again.

so how??? should i sleep anot? dammit. suddenly i can't think of any friends who would be awake at this time. in any case, it'd be weird if i called anyone just to ask whether i should go sleep anot.

on one hand, [dh] is so interesting but on the other, i'm in my bro's room(which i used to share with him) where it's all dark and cosy and nice to sleep!

keke, better entries soon. i can't think much coz i'm kinda sleepy and yet there's too many things running through my head. i think my life is in quite a messy state now.. have to really start prioritizing!!

bottoms UP closed DOWN =(

Ok, my long awaited entry for you guys.. It's been awhile since I blogged about interesting stuff 'coz I've been busy and lazy(yes, i know you've heard the excuse a million times but this is for the benefit of the people who I've recently found out read my blog, but more details about that another time) Yes, Bottoms Up has been closed for more than a month already then I write this entry.. I know I'm slow.. But this is the place where I worked, slept, ate, drank(alot!) and played for half of last year, so I must still write a tribute to it.. Now that it closed down I can finally tell everyone that we played MJ there and show you all photos of the 3rd floor!!

The Beginning

As most of you know, I was actually working at Dbl C pub at Boat Quay last year with Yvonne but the boss there was kinda.. well, bossy and I didn't really enjoy working there. More over, the pay kinda sucked. Then by some fate or something, I bumped into Zi Chao after work and he told me they were still hiring (actually when they just open he got tell me before, but i felt that working for friends might get abit hard coz sometimes might not know where to draw the line between work and play) so I went to try it out with Von and the starting of my super slack life began.. I'll try to keep it less wordy and more photo-y k! Yes, there'll be alot of red faced and glassy-eyed photos. And you all can see how much I changed!! All the different hairstyles and how I became fatter coz of alcohol. =( But NVM, it was worth it!

the girl i used to see almost everyday

ah hao, bartender cum cashier cum cleaner cum waiter. lolz.

sitting behind the bar zhi lian-ing after drinking abit too much

with the 2 lau jiaos, belle and meijun(we were all high when we took this pic)

me and belle, my 'best friend' in bottoms!

The funny thing is, when i first saw her when i was just a customer i hated her coz of some stupid guy, but then when i started working then realised that she's so sweet and cute and blur!! i miss her.. =( 5-10 queen lehz.. nobody can win her..

This was the first couple of months, before the 2 lazy owners (Esmund and Zi Chao) actually decided to come back and check on the pub every once in awhile. Then Von and Meijun quit and those 2 started appearing much more often.. Then the MJ and the clubbing and the outings started!! We could just work till 6am then play MJ till 1pm then go out for lunch and maybe walk walk or catch a show then go back to work!! Madness but super fun la..

The People (Friends and regulars who became friends)

tracy, ex-waitress who came back to work, a super small size girl with super big guts

jie ying and jenn

See the game machine behind? I think I spent at least $500 on it in the 6 month I spent at Bottoms. Everyday can spend around $15 on the 11up game, trying to break record..

with my sweetheart!!

ah hao's birthday





ah liang and ah xiong (belle's bf) , caught in the act. heh.



sharon, ah xiong's sis. (it's like a family tree or wat?! lolz.)

i think we took this pic in the toilet. this is the night we played rnb songs on the ktv system and danced at the 1st floor. really madness. but the fun kind!

xiao pang, one of the youngest

zen and raymond

zen

alex, my ex 'darling'. lolz. the very first mj room!

ah hao and stupid. lolz.

so now i'm with stupid. keke, thats matthew, super super regular who ended up staying in bottoms 24/7.

fengwen and mel. can say mel was the one who started everything coz i know zc through her.

kenneth the gay boy. he has a gf though. lolz.

pauline and samantha, super young kids. don't ask. =x

and how can i forget my bestie right? i dunno why but i only have these two pictures.. so to the rest of the girls, don't kill me ok! i tried to find photos with the rest of you inside but can't find.. think jas never send me!

Then we have the birthday celebrations where everyone gets dead drunk!! First up.. Alex!




I think he ran outside to escape from drinking but in the end everyone came out and took pictures of him looking like a drunk. Even took turns posing with him. Lolz.

Next, Ah Seng and Vison's birthday..










The cake so cool hor! After that we all went upstairs to sleep, but not before graffiti-cating (is there such a word?) ah seng's back. Guess which signature is mine!! Haha.

And of coz there's MY birthday! But I only have 2 photos coz Steph refuses to pass me the rest till my next birthday! Oh well, it's just repetitive pictures of me looking drunk with different people anyway.

the one year overdue 'surprise' from my babes

martell-ed bliss. lolz.

And I would like to again thank EVERYONE who took care of me that day. Yes i know I was stumbling around like a drunk elephant and the reason was stupid, so ya.. I think you guys will be happy to know that I haven't gotten drunk since then!! I think. Haha. =X Okok, no more drinking on my birthday. It kinda defeats the purpose when you're not able to remember anything about your birthday.

i dunno who edited these photos, but i know after we took this we went to the dim sum restaurant at chin swee road to eat. Yummy!

And then we also went clubbing together afew times..

with huifen and tracy

The first time i saw huifen, she looked damn xialan and i didn't really like her also. But then i found out she just doesn't really have a habit of smiling and eventually we became quite close. I miss her la! Everytime call her she got so many other plans.. Hmph.

marcus, esmund's (ex)friend
brandon, marcus' friend
zi chao looking even more blur than usual
that's huifen's finger btw.

So what did we do the most at Bottoms? I guess it would be SLEEP! Coz after drinking shot after shot and getting a major headache, the sofa looks as inviting as a big soft bed! First, second and third floor.. All also got people sleep before! Lolz.















In the toilet also can sleep!! Haha, power la.. Btw the sofa really is quite comfortable to sleep on. Only thing I worry about are the cockroaches and rats running loose.. =X

Other random stuff

with a PINK pail, mopping is no longer a chore!! not that i remember ever mopping the floor there.. hee.

this bin belongs to bottoms up. lolz.

The last day

I purposely went to take pictures of the hidden places to show you all. Plus also for memory's sake la.. I was so sad ok!!

behind the bar on the first floor

let's take the stairs to the third floor..

the really messy 'living room'

walk straight to go to the toilet..

got bathtub somemore!! nice.
next to the toilet is my favourite.. mj room!!

then next door is the tv/gaming room.

Doesn't it look/sound fun?!! Really miss that place alot.. It's way way more fun than this.. There's the behind the scenes dramas, the bitching, the fighting, the scandals, the gossiping and the bonding. LOLZ.

And finally, a proper picture with Esmund. I dunno why but ZC wasn't there on the last day!! Keke.. Anyway, it was fun but all good things come to an end I guess..

But another came along.. Not long after Bottoms Up closed, Rush reopened at BQ!!!! Hahaha. So ya, I am still going there once a week at least! So happy got my techno fix!~~ I don't care if you say I'm childish coz I don't wanna be mature anyway! Pui.
