Christmas Day

Christmas Day

It was 2006 Christmas Eve. The year has been filled with different events. Going through different phrases, facing all sorts of happenings has made me mature a bit.
Coming to the end of the year, Christmas was finally here. The plan for the day was to have a Christmas dinner with the guys. It also marked the day when Terence comes back home to Singapore from Cambodia. He was there for about 20 odd days for his school community project.
However, as it turns out, only Jin Jie and Tengfu could meet for the dinner first. Terence and Aaron had family dinner before hand.
As such, the three of us met up first instead. The initial plan was to have a meal at Clarke Quay. There was a Spanish restaurant that I had aimed to go for. We nearly went there for it on Aaron's birthday dinner. I met Jin Jie first as Tengfu was late. Upon finding out that there will be only 3 persons, he suggested to change venue instead. In the end, we went to Wheelock Place, Big O. We were there for a couple of hours, having each a main course and desert.
It was close to 9pm when we left the restaurant. Aaron was on his way when he suggested to go to a club at Somerset. On our way there from Wheelock, we had to make a big roundabout. The main street was filled with all sorts of people. All wanted to gather around, in hope to soak in the atmosphere. The night was simply crazy, people were practically squeezing their way through. Movement was extremely slow. After much effort, we finally met up Aaron, heading to the club opposite Specialist.
There were a few clubs. In the end, we chose Club Rouge. Guess the timing was still early, when we entered. It was absolutely quiet. It seemed that the stuff themselves have only started work too. We got our drinks and sat at a corner.
We simply spent the time chatting while awaiting for Terence to arrive. By the time he reached, it was about 11pm. By then, the crowd began to creep in. As the time drew near to midnight countdown, the music and crowd began to heat up. Minutes before midnight, I and Aaron began to go a little crazy. We started to play around with the party pops that was given to us.
Right after countdown, we began to really loosen up, fooling around. There were dancers who went up to the respective platforms to perform. One of them even danced right in front of us. I and Jin Jie simply took out hp and videoed her dance. keke...
Then they decided to head to Boat Quay to have some prata, while POOR me, i had to head back to hospital. I had planned to sleep over the night so that i could resume my work on Christmas straight away in the morning.
About 20 minutes before leaving, I and Aaron decided to pull them all to the dance floor, dancing around... WOW.. guess this is the first time that we, together, let loose in a club. However, it seems Jin Jie is really not the ones who clubs. He went out soon after claiming to pick up a phone call. He didnt came back, instead waiting for us to come our after our short dance.
As we arranged to meet outside, there were still a hug crowd roaming along the street. Many were armed with their weapon for the night, spray foams. They were spraying around, be it friends or even strangers. As we were waiting for Jin Jie to come meet us, Aaron saw a group of males "attacked" a girl with the spray. Blinding her eye with the ambush, one of the guys simply took the chance to grab one of her breast.... On my God...!!!
After seperating with them, while on my way to hospital, I was also attacked by the spray too. Darn!!! One of my eye kena hurt from it ....
I could only entered through one of the entrance. Upon reaching hospital, one of the security guards still questioned about my arrival. Luckily, after claiming that I'm one of the staff, he let me in without any further questions.
Sleeping over in the office was quite a torture. The air-con was cold and the positioning was definitely not one of the best one. I had to change a few position before settling myself on the 4 chairs that i combined. All the while, my head was spinning from the drinks that i had at the club.
Once dawn, I had to grab myself up, change accordingly and took over work from the night shift stuff.
