smart ass

somebody was very clever yesterday to erase all the msgs in her phone. who was that? it was none other than yours truly. ME?! remember the bit when i said my mobile's keypad was a lil spoilt? yeah. i was supposed to only clear the sent msgs, but it must have been because i pressed too hard or something. it deleted all the msgs in EVERY box. :\ so much for being clever eh?

was quite a slacker yesterday - kept sleeping whenever i hit my books. was supposed to meet up with xuelin and clarice yesterday. but in the end, xuelin had something on, so clarice and myself met up instead.

initially we decided on going indochine at wisma. the live band there is not too bad. plus, there were plenty of seating space. but the fickle minded me decided that we should go to francis' karaoke bar to check the place out instead. :)

after rounds of driving around the area trying to find a parking lot [i actually got lost around the area, and almost got the police coming after me cos i exitted by the wrong direction!!!], i reached creme bar (at circular road, behind boat quay) at about 10pm. we walked into the bar, searched around, but couldn't find francis!! so i couldn't give him a surprise and had to call him to ask where he was...

"hello francis ah. this is stephanie! where are you ah?"
"i'm in hougang eating leh. what's up?"
"i'm at ur bar leh. haha. you gonna come down later?"
"huh you at my bar ah. okok you got place to sit anot?"
"don't have leh. your place full man."
"ok you give me 5 mins i'll call you back. i'll arrange for a seat for you. you down there got how many people?"
"only me and my girlfriend. 2 lor."
"okok i'll ask them to get a seat for you guys. wait for my call ah."

*5 mins later*
"steph ah, you go inside to look for francis and pass him the phone."
"huh? francis ask me to go inside the bar to look for francis to pass him the phone?"
"ya got another francis inside. haha. pass him the phone then i'll tell him what to do."
"ok... you wait ah."

*walked into the bar, went to the bar counter to ask who is francis. bartender then leads me to the back door where francis number 2 is. as i stepped out of the door, i had a shock of my life! MEN were peeing there. okok i didn't see anything. :X i waited for francis(2) to finish with his business, then passed him the phone. they chatted, then promptly cleared a table for us*

we sat down, and francis(2) asked us what we'd like to drink. hmm as usual. no idea. so he offered to serve us iced water. heh. francis(1) told him to take good care of us, and he is asking us if we wanted to drink iced water?! talk about treating us well huh! bah. we ordered fruit punch instead. :)

review of creme bar: nice friendly staff(i thought the waitresses were quite pretty and friendly). lovely zen-like decor (although the decor doesn't go with the karaoke bar kinda feel-ly). warning: don't go on fridays cos there were some wierd, noisy and rowdy bunch of people screaming their lungs out on the mike(and off the mike too). generally, i like it. :D

okok so after some 2 hours later, francis(1) made his grand entrance. bought us another 2 glasses of fruit punch, then butterfly-ed between our table and another one, and at last sat with us after his friends left. chatted a bit here and there. talked about the old times. oh, how i miss those days! [oh ya, some guy at the bar bought us another fruit punch each too. so in total we each drank 3 glasses of fruit punch yesterday! HAHA!]

the night ended lovely at 4am. the waitress took a picture of us using the bartender's mobile. i wanted to send the mms to myself, but i told her to send it to francis(1) instead, then he will send it to me. smart move eh? ;) if i can post it up here, i'll try to. but the mms picture hasn't got to me yet. haha.

francis(1) then offered to drive us to the car cos it was a lil dark for 2 ladies to be walking around the quiet place in the middle of the night (i parked at golden shoe carpark, which was quite a distance away). so we got into his car. it smelt of apples. YUM. but he refused to say where he got the car freshener from. he kept saying its the smell from his body. HAHA!

francis(1) has changed alot. he grew rounder(haha) and he upgraded his car - from the ahbeng-ish manual-drive suzuki swift hatchback to a auto-drive toyota corolla with a body kit. francis ah, you may be a businessman, but the car is still ahbeng-ish with the skirts! :P

we stopped downstairs the carpark. but he, being a gentleman, offered to drive us upstairs to get the car. [omg so sweet right? ignoring the fact that he still has to pay for parking cos its the ERP kind!] we got off his car, then got into my car. he waited for us to go off first, then he trailed slowly behind.

as usual, the super-blur me doesn't know her way around the area. so its like whatever way i could go, i just went lah, although francis was still trailing behind me. then i received a call from him.

"you know the way around anot ah?"
"uh actually i don't. haha. abit lost now!"
"okok why don't you follow behind me then i'll lead you into the expressway."
"haha okok."

so we drove alongside each other at a slow 80km/h. actually i didn't know that he wanted me to lead. heh. until i couldn't take driving at 80km/h so i sped up and he continued following behind. he waved bye and exitted from the ang mo kio ave 3 exit while i took the ang mo kio ave 5 exit to send clarice home. [woot! i hit a 135km/h on lentor avenue yesterday. simply exhilirating!!!]

it was a lovely but tired night. now, back to studying! :(
