Oktoberfest collage by my artistic colleague... aha, I guess I didn't even have that mood to get it up so nicely as long as I did get most of the pictures up to you guys to have a glimpse! And that was done the night after I was back from the hours of dancing and drinking... Okay, but hey, cheerio to hers... I like it!
In case you're wondering... yes these are my pictures (the same ones on my Oktoberfest post) ;)
Du grosses Gestirn! Was wäre dein Glück, wenn du nicht Die hättest, welchen du leuchtest! Oh great star! What would be your happiness if you had not those for whom you shine for? ― Friedrich Nietzsche

Over 500ml and not wasted ;)
Seriously, my beer belly is growing, expanding, errr..protruding??... after this one night at the Oktoberfest. My normal limit of 1/2 a pint is long forgotten, I had a 500ml mug to myself, and yet I'm still sober (not even red). My god, it's Erdinger!! Later on, my ex-colleague bought on a new challenge, a huge 3L glass of Erdinger (err.. well its shared by numerous - several people sitting around us too... ewww... :S).
Oktoberfest in Singapore, no one is going to expect much but hey, it's way beyond expectation. I guess it's not only the food and beer, it is the CROWD. And really, tonight I have had the most fun out of so many months... Dancing on the bench, on the wet table, with strangers, forming a line running through the dining hall or group line dancing, taking pictures with those specially dressed... :)))) One problem, that is my legs are aching so much, I guess I haven't been dancing enough for quite a while, hahaa. Fortunately the recent haircut has took off some weight off me, I can jump and swing without feeling a load on my head. Plus, the german food is not bad (of course, the beer and food couldn't compare with Germany's but they were good enough!), portion is a little small, but it's 3-course and lot of drinking after that... so that explains it!
What more, despite the haze being back again on this lucky night, we have an indoor "tent" with air-con! Perfect!
Thank you SPH for giving me such spontaneous ex-colleagues... thank you guys too for such a crazy nightout (even though I don't think they have this URL nor read my blog :p)... Fabulous's the word. Even though I didn't even get a chance to practise some german or understand the live band's (such a strong accent, even when they count 1, 2, 3... Prost... I was thinking err... is that their dialect??!), but... I still loved it. Oktoberfest 2007 in Singapore or anywhere else in the world? Sure!!

Alas...
Reading BS's blog (Boonsiong, in case there's more BS, lol), it makes me realise one thing! THAT IS - my mum is not the only one screaming! Haha. Sorry, it wasn't meant to be a joke, but yes I truly feel this is so normal in our cultures. Parents yelling and screaming! I hope not to become one. Anyway BS I haven't read your entries for a long time, since you took down your old blog, this one has too much Chinese for me to handle!!
These days I have been believing too much into astrology. I read the paper daily and always take into account what it says about "Libra" on the second last page of LIFE. Now, who is that someone I haven't met that it mentions today... I'm very curious!
With most friends not big fans of beer... I tried my luck asking my ex-colleagues if anyone was keen to join me at Singapore's Oktoberfest event. Surprisingly, all these people are so spontaneous, such a bunch of joy! 8 of us will be going for that 3 course German dinner and Erdinger beer.. awww... thanks!
Angela rang on Sunday and we spoke for over an hour despite the very bad connection! I think we should Skype (yeah, now I've installed)... It was a long chat but it never felt like its duration; so much to update, so much to gossip and share that it seems like the clock has already stopped there. I'm looking forward to spend Christmas together (in Singapore's summer and not London's bitter coldness)!!
Some nights ago, I dreamt again... of the person I now so dislike. I hate him, more than anything else in the world. I wonder why was I still helping him in the dream, like I always dreamt of, again and again. Why was I so happy in the dream with him!
