* 010108 . new year's day .breakfast at the hougang ave 3 market (which will be demolished soon this year) was a major affair as over ten of my relatives came along .then i pretty much slacked through the whole of the afternoon .around 5.30 i went over to my cousins' house with my parents .and i saw that they had bought something high on my wishlist : a PSP with Audition Portable pre-loaded inside .without hesitation , i had to borrow it from them until end of dinnertime afterwards at Hougang Green .----------------------------------------------------------------------* 020108 . bunk day . (:after breakfast at the coffeeshop downstairs , i made a trip to the Kelly Services office in Toa Payoh to return the Watsons timesheet to the agent .it was still early then , like only 9+ in the morning and most shops are still not open for business yet .so i went over to Junction 8 before travelling to bunk .the counter staff at bunk told me the day package (ie. 10am-10pm) was on promotion at $10 from the usual $18 .and obviously i can't let this money-saving opportunity slip by , what with the non-peak rates for members now upwardly adjusted to $2.50/hour from $2 .once i login into maple , there was no turning back as eight hours of non-stop training at the armory map in zipangu ensued .some players i met were familiar faces , like Rourou , a level 145 arch mage .others i've never seen before , such as WoZuiSuai , level 90 ice mage who died three times though he levelled twice , as well as showriemel , level 104 ice mage from nanyang poly who was on MC for that day .another pleasant surprise greeted me as i was making payment , the counter staff told me i only had to pay $6 , which works out to less than 75 cents/hour .----------------------------------------------------------------------okays .won't have much to update about today since i ain't going out .but will probably go for some exercise later in the day as the countdown to the (dreaded) army life continues .
