My loved ones. They complete the puzzle of my heart : )
--------
NYE was spent first at Xun's with a huge steamboat feast. We finally got to meet the lady who tamed Joel (;p!) and Bear attempted to get me high / drunk by pushing goblet-loads of wine and champagne in front of me. Part Two saw the lot of us trooping to Chijmes, which in my opinion had invited a rather disappointing live band to perform. So right after the countdown, we decided to drop by Union after a minor tussle between the choice of music - R&B or latin. However, the crush of human bodies at City Hall MRT proved too much to handle, so the Union plan was scuppered in favour of a detour to Timbre, where surprise surprise, we caught Trevor and UBlues. By then I indeed got an alcohol high after a stiff Flaming Lamborghini.
The gang at Timbre.

Five of the motley crew stayed over at a complementary hotel room after hiking from City Hall to Bukit Timah just to hail an available cab, and I was re-acquainted with bridge as we laughed at each other's hilarious card antics. The brief three hours or so of shut-eye that we caught was potentially scandalous in itself. Imagine three dudes and two babes squeezed on one queen-sized mattress, and you can roughly get the picture. No, make that two and two, because poor Weiliang was relegated to the adjacent sofa after Jan managed to kick and stuff her foot underneath my sleeping form so that I squirmed and left Weiliang with the tiniest of spaces on the precarious edge of the bed. Quite a chain reaction indeed.
Five on a bed, should try for six next time ;p
