Another Crazy week over!

Ahhh, I had a really crazy week. That's why I haven't been writing on my blog, coz I just have been running around, meeting people and having fun.

Wednesday was frisbee again. I played really hard, because I didn't think I'll be playing on Thursday due to tuition. And I went out to dinner with Clive, Huixing, Mike and Weiyang. We talked about Dota (yes, guys and Warcraft 3), girls, and how good we looked as above average Singaporean guys. Clive and Weiyang also asked me to try to join Muddy Grass for the Singapore Open because they were short a person. After dinner, I went off to meet Steph Tan for a movie. We didn't actually caught one, coz the midnight movies at Cineleisure were kinda crap. So, we went to have ice cream at the cafe downstairs. We talked about a lot things, family, friends, and our time in college. I then walked her back to where she stayed.

Thursday was more tuition for my JC student. It lasted 2 hours in the afternoon, after which, I dashed off to Riverside (Clarke Quay). I still want to play frisbee anyway, so tuition didn't stop me. Gameplay was much smoother for me already. I had dinner with Joyce (Seiwei's sister) at Kallang. We ate a lot coz I was starving. We then headed back to my place for me to shower. Joyce was looking at some of my old family photos and commenting on how "nerdy and dorky" my sisters and I were when we were younger. I know I looked really nerdy then. Not now. =) We then headed to Harry's at Esplanade for some drinks and the jazz. Joyce likes the jazz player at Harry's at Esplanade a lot. We sat there, talking about life, frisbee, and the scholars. She found my blog. Not surprising, since she put two and two together, making a guess that my blog would be teesing.blogspot.com. Anyway, I was supposed to meet Steph at Chijmes for more drinks with her friends from Malaysia, but decided to just relax and talk to Joyce for the rest of the night coz we haven't been talking or playing frisbee together for a while. Then I went back home.

Friday adds another count to my visitor count. John Shen, another fraternity brother arrived in Singapore. Wenzheng and I took him out in turn, to Orchard, City Hall, Esplanade and then Geylang for dinner. John was really curious about Geylang, coz like most Americans, never been to a country where prostitution was legalised. He wanted a tour of Geylang which I gave him. He also wanted to ask how much it cost for a prostitute, merely for intellectual curiosity. I was a little uncomfortable, coz after living here for many years, I really dislike this aspect of Geylang. But well, it's life. And I understand how he might be curious about all this. We then met up with Anant, another fraternity brother and the other ATI people here in Singapore at Clarke Quay. We chilled and talk for a while, before I left for Club Momo. Jeremy from GIC was having his last night in Singapore and the GIC people were there to club and hang out. It's always really fun clubbing with them. I left slightly early because I had to tuition the next day and train for frisbee with Muddy Grass at NUS.

Saturday brought about more fun. Tuition was okay. It's a job. Frisbee training with Muddy Grass is tough. I don't like running, but frisbee is all about sprinting and running. I was so tired. I was breathing really hard and exhausted when 5.00pm came. It was good though. I got some catches, understood the game better and put in my best in throwing and catching. I need lots of work if I want to play in the open, especially with my stamina. I'm pretty fast on the field, but my stamina runs out pretty fast. If I'm playing the cup in a zone defense, I'm dead by the time we hop to the 3rd or 4th guy during the passing. I like playing deep deep, which is the last person in either offense or defense, coz I like to run long and jump at disc near or in the end zone. I definitely had some acrobatic falls from full jumps and having someone crash into me. No damage done though. Training lasts till sundown, but I was off to meet Steph and the GIC people to watch Red Eye, so I left early. They will keep in touch whether they want me to play.

The movie was kinda okay, not very exciting, and very short. Lucky, it was only 6 bucks from the GIC discount. We then headed to Swensons for dessert. It took forever (an hour) for the earthquake ice cream to come and the waitress gave really silly excuses. Steph went to the manager and the earthquake was complimentary. The manager is really nice though. I'll still go back, even though service is slow on Friday nights. Nice way to burn some time. We then headed to play some pool next to Hard Rock. Another early night for so that I can get to church on Sunday.

Church today, and then lunch with Steph, Desmond and Nicole. Lunch was at Crystal Jade Palace at Taka. It was pretty good, having a nice hot tim sum lunch after getting soaked in the rain. Tuition tonight was tiring as usual. 3 hours of brain wrecking work, coz I don't think my student is thinking too much, just me doing all the problems. He wants more tuition tomorrow (Monday), Tuesday, Thursday and next Sunday. 4 days a week, 2-3 hours at a go. Wow, if I wasn't as free as I was, it's going to be a huge chore. But today was also payday and it feels really good. Gotta love the money, or how am I going to pay for all the clubbing?

More tuitioning next week! Hopefully, Muddy Grass will take me to play for them at the Open. I really want to do that, it will be fun, although I'll probably drop after the tournament. My leg muscles are all super sore. Ouch.

Next week... more craziness to come!
