What do I talk about?

Well, it's been some time since my last entry. I figured I should do some writing.

This Friday was Chris' birthday dinner celebration. We (the Stanford bunch + Frankie) went to some Noodle Bar at Millenia Walk. It was pretty good Szechuan noodles. We then went to Boat Quay for drinks. Okay, some really funny things that night.

1) The bar was kinda horrible. It's called Queenz. And there's this small font that says, "Since 2005". Is it since 2005 B.C? or A.D?

2) The guys played a drinking finger guessing game. Chee Hau was playing with Jason. Of course, if you lose, you drink. Jason was drinking a mixed drink and Chee Hau? Sprite. Jason kept playing with him. He didn't know why he kept losing.

3) Eating satay at Lao Pa Sat. I was sitting opposite Shuzhen and Jason was opposite Chris.
Me: I wonder where all the cute girls at Singapore hang out.
Chris (to Jason more than me): There's one opposite you.
Jason (Bursts out laughing): Chris, you're opposite me and you're not cute.

4) Highlight of the night. In Shuzhen's car.
Chris: Shuzhen, I'm not interested in you. What do you feel about that?
Shuzhen (VERY happily): I'm so ecstatic.
Rest of car(Jason and me): HAHAHAHA!

Sunday was the Stanford Gathering at Dexian's place. Not bad, gotta see some of the old people again, and the new people going to Stanford. I think some of them look extremely dorky. =) I know that's mean, but nah.

Taking the bus back, I passed by two places in Singapore which are very unique in some way. Little India and Geylang. I have always remarked that Geylang is one place in Singapore that still looks like a 3rd world country. Little India is definitely another place like that. Being Sunday, there were HORDES of Indians just on the streets walking and hanging out. It's kinda creepy seeing so many Indians in one place. It definitely reminds me of my 4 weeks in India. They were just chilling, mingling around and being on the streets. I know I'm kinda racist against Indians, especially after my trip to India, even though I try hard to put that out of my mind. Little India is definitely the manifestation of India in Singapore. But it's a lot cleaner, a lot safer. I think because I'm either used to being in crowded places with lots of Asians, or with lots of white people, being in a crowded place with lots of Indians or Black people kinda scare me, or make me uneasy. However, one thing I am happy about is the way the sterilization of Singapore hasn't make this place lose its charm. I would be very appalled to see Little India turn into the Chinatown now. Oooh, euuuuuhhh...
