i realised today is 08082010

and also tomorrow is Singapore National Day!

I have missed SND for like ever since I've moved away. When I think of NDP, I think of sweat. Yes, sweat flowing down from my temples, my armpits and etc. You get it. SG is just too hot for me already.

Anyways, I'm still proud to be a Singaporean.

Last night we went out to our dear friends' house. The couple who recently lost their baby girl, the couple who brought me and bf together. I used to go to their old house all the time before I met the bf. I would be playing RockBand on Xbox for hours. We havent done a session witht them for a long time, but last night we did from 10PM until 230AM. It felt real good. They have Lady GaGa on RockBand downloadable songs now. And damn, her lyrics are crazy. I never know that until we try to play the song.

After we left their place, we actually went to a nearby casino to play some slot machine. Yes, we have became gamblers. But it's an ever-present kinda leisure outlet here and so we indulge in it. Healthily though, for we only play less expensive slot machines for fun. And for one, our little monster will be back next week from her vacation, so we wanna do as much adult stuff as we can without a curfew.

Then we went to another even more local-ish casino that I consider getting rooms for my family when they visit. I bet the rooms are like 29 bucks per night. We went there for USD3.99 Steak and eggs. 3.99!!! So erm we were not expecting much, and true to that, our orders got mixed up, which is not that bad, at least they label how the steak is cooked. Plus there was a nice amount of butte ront he toasted bread. The hhashbrown that came with it was yummy, but my egg yolk was way too runny for my taste. That was all 430AM on a lazy sunday morning.

As we exit the casino, it was evident that it rained!! BTW, rain is kinda a big deal in the desert, in the middle of summer! but it's apparent that summer is kinda ending, with the later sunsets, lowering temperature day by day. I kinda miss the winter, but now I'm reversing my emotions.

It was 500AM and the sun barely rose. My head hit the pillows by 530AM and I couldn't really sleep. It's been months since I went out this late and enjoyed the little stuffs of living in sleepless city of Las Vegas.

How should I spend today? The boss has forewarned a hectic 2 weeks to come. So I think I wanna go out and get a little crazier than yesterday.

Maybe enjoy a Singapore Sling along the way?
