M1 cocked things up, for sure.

dec 2009, i upgraded my line for another 2 years.
initially, the bills which i have received for the first 2 months were not updated yet, still the lower tier plan.
it happened that nick made a trip down to paragon M1, to enquire some stuffs.
so i thought of my problem and checked with them.
was told that they have no record of me upgrading line in dec 2009.
even when i gave them the serial no of my iPhone, they have no record too. LOL

nick smiled and told me, i can take this opportunity to upgrade another 2 years.or to play safe,wait for another 1 or 2 months.

yeah he was right, the billing system was updated after that. and so on prior to that, i thought my contract ends on dec 2011.

thanks to the release of iPhone 4 that i realized M1 system cocked things up, still showed the contract fulfillment record on dec 2010.
i risked it by posting a thread of the sale of my 3GS.

in the end, i was supposed to sell it at 440. but for the sake that the buyer is still a student, i gave $20 disc.no, it was a he.
if not i were liable to pay for the microsim at $19.25, i would have sold $400 to the student LOL.

paid $210 handset price of iPhone 4 16gb
$64 (outstanding amount of that particular account which i upgraded)
$19.25 (microsim)
damages: $293.25

i love iPhone 4, for it's look, weight, slim, flat surfaces, and all.i felt great with it lying on my palm despite it's a tad heavy.



went to far east plaza , to buy the expensive anti-glare protection sticker.
wanted to take bus, but i was tired and so, cab.
$35 (sticker)
$15 (cab)
damages = $50

total damages almost $350.

first day at work tmr. got to wake up at 6am and leave by 645am.
i hate to wear long sleeve. LOL

Monday, August 2

gathering over my place on friday was alright. i was busy preparing food for them,and special thanks to reeve & ringo for helping me out.

first and the only blu-ray movie to kick start, they were watching jet li's "精武英雄“. no doubt it was an old movie back in 1994, it is still worth a watch.

after that, OTOT half of them were playing their own handheld consoles, PSP, NDS. lol
reeve was playing PS3.

a few of us went over to masterbed room (MBR) to play junglespeed. myst taught us but i wasn't keen in the game :P

blahblah... 2nd movie "scary movie", though most of them were laughing, they find it boring too.especially nameless, he dislikes it as the content is very lame. lol
well ,he is scared of horror movies too. :qmarkoops:

he went to sleep in MBR, rolling himself like a popiah. :biggrins:
the guys then watched the last movie of stephen chow, "回魂夜“。i dozed off halfway....never had a wink.

if i never sold my projector 2 years ago,the MBR should be more fun than the smaller room.as it is equipped with 92" projector screen, a mini cinema,
though the quality of the PJ does not support full HD.
after all,a 92" screen wins hands down over a 32", in terms of size,that is.
yeah, i missed the gaming experience of PS3 on the large screen.

i ever invited my nearby neighbors over for some movies, all of them are husband and wives, 6 people.it was really cozy, with a small table infront of the sofa for food and drinks;

overall, i think most of them did not really enjoyed the event.maybe due to 8 people squeezing into the small entertainment room.
it is a room more suitable for like lesser people of 5 ?

all in all, MBR can be a room with more fun due to it's lesser constraint space.more space if i take out the queen sized bed, for accommodating the steering wheel plus the seat.so there you go, a 92" screen, for you to play PS3 and to have a vast virtual driving experience.
all these takes money to fulfill. buying a PJ which supports full HD 1920x1080 resolution display.a good logitech steering wheel package plus maybe a longer 3 seater sofa (black one is 2 seater).

lastly, thank you very much for attending my gathering, members of NSA.:lovely::hearts:

Sunday, August 1

was looking forward an outing from another group.
was looking forward for some daidee games.

reached, self introduction done.kicked start with "heart attack".13 of us were sitting on the floor playing it.(it is inconvenient to quickly move into the position of "palms beat" with the big body of mine,especially on the floor in a big group)
before they started the next game "bluff", i asked why not we play daidee since we have a few decks of cards,definitely not a problem at all.somemore,a few others agreed too.

but still,they proceeded "bluff",never played it because i find it inconvenient to stretch out my hand to the middle due to my body size compared to the 10 others in small size.

the next game followed by "junglespeed" which i do not like at all, about snatching the middle stuff.gave it a pass and closed my eyelids to rest.

i felt bored, i thought they would stop the game for daidee.was dead wrong.
i went out,took a seat at the waiting lounge.stoned there for like 20 mins before i stoned outside the room we booked.i stood there like an idiot for 40 minutes.there was a female member whom i got along pretty well with, called and asked me where am i.
i then told her i was outside looking at some stuffs when i was actually standing & stoning there for like 40 mins.

before we left safra, they wanted to take a group pic.i volunteered to help them take since i do not want to be photographed.

after that,we walked to a kopitiam.was walking slowly ,infact the last one at the back.all of them were chatting away happily.
another male member slowed down his pace in order to catch up me.he noticed i am weird,so asking am i ok.of course i answered him "i am".
cannot be possibly saying "i am bad"?

anyway after the dinner,we walked all the way out to mount faber.none of them approaches me even though i walked infront.
the guys were looking on iPhone for navigation.just when the organizer and few others stopped by the map, i carried on walking slowly.the rest carried on walking infront.
after finished looking on the map, they bypassed me without asking why am i walking so slow or such.yes, i was left the last one, again.

seeing the walking distance drifted further, seeing the 12 of them walking closely and chatting away happily, with their back facing me ,as the last guy.i felt really awful.i then decided to "ninjutsu" by smoking out (go home).

i felt like shit.to pay for $12 ($4 transport to and fro, $8 on booking the room with the birthday cake) to taste the feeling of being left out.i could have stayed at home to have more rest.why wasted my time went all the way down to mount faber safra?
i mean , i did anticipated for daidee, but ended up so disappointed.

in my opinion, if i were the organizer or it's committee member, i would not have neglected the ONLY lonely member by carrying on my game.i would have approached them or having a chat.or even,walked out to see see look look

i mean come on,it was very obvious i walked so slow,maybe at least 5 metre apart.
i am sure many of them should know i am not really fine but yet,no one bothers.they only chat happily among themselves.
