OG 11 Outing 12/08: Celebrated Yingling's birthday at Singpost - October 2008
Friday, October 17, 2008 @ 11:55 PM
Hello Elevenies, this is Joshua again bring you the summary of this month outing at Singpost and City Plaza which Dicky organised to celebrate Yingling’s birthday.
At 1pm, Yingling, Jieyang and Xinni met up at Bedok Burger King to study and have lunch. At about 6pm, the entire OG met at Paya Lebar MRT Station and I was the last one to come since Joanne, Dicky and Shihao came late and they met us directly at the restaurant.
When we were having our meal, the Yanho and I was so worried about our NS that we kept on asking Dicky questions about BMT. Yanho was so worried that he was put in PES A and he asked Dicky questions like salary (he asked why so little and Dicky say that the food and water the NS boys used are all paid for by the government, then Yanho say that he would not bathe and eat during the BMT which made the whole OG laughed). My questions are rather simple and seldom did anyone laughed. (Whoever can remember what someone did Yanho had said about BMT, please add on).
After our dinner, we celebrated Yingling’s birthday outside Singpost. After singing the birthday song we still talked about NS stuff. Yanho asked us how to get into PES E, and we terribly suggested many ways like acting as a homosexual, being possessed by the spirit of a Japanese soldier – which Jieyang say that the officer in charge would already know that Yanho is faking mad by saying ‘you are going to say that you are going to say about the spirit of the Japanese soldier right?’, and even jumping down from the third floor (yl suggested).
Then, our OG started to have a mini debate about the government. Shihao and Yanho was the proposing side (against the government) while the OG was opposing (for the government). We started talking about issues ranging from transport fees to inflation and about foreigners entering Singapore as a stepping stone to study in US and UK universities. However, Yingling said that Singaporeans feel very comfortable about the government as the government provide us with many things otherwise we would be sleeping on the streets for a change.
After chatting until 10pm, we took some group photos and left for home.
All the best Elevenies in the upcoming A Levels Examination. Hope the entire OG can score good grades. The next outing would be to celebrate Joanne’s birthday (her birthday is on 20th Nov) and I think we could use the $60 vouchers for Bali Thai restaurant that we were given during the last outing at Velocity to celebrate her birthday at Bali Thai restaurant.
