bbq at NSRCC

hey just back from a bbq organised by my colleagues at this National Service Recreation and Country Club (NSRCC). haha dun worry fellow recce commanders. this is not some RCC tat we have to go thru during NS time. tink it's a club owned by SAFRA. and then the chalet super expensive also leh. heard from my colleague, tink is $300 per nite, then minimum must rent 2 nites. but it's those 2 storey one then quite big also.

then actually can say i din expect to enjoy it as much as i did. cos this club is actually near tanah merah mrt there. so it's really far from my house. if take mrt also almost from 1 end to the other and then take more than 1 hour. so i was actually tinking of not going. but then i tink i had rejected their invitation to go somewhere else b4. so if i dun go again like very buay on like tat. so maybe just go show show face lor.

so i arrived at 5 something cos the bbq supposed to start at 5. ehhh not tat i purposely wanna be late but just miscalculated the time. and then when i arrived the fire was just starting and seems like the fire also not starting very well. but i also not expert at starting the fire so i dare not take charge also. hmmm maybe next time bbq must learn until become expert liao. cos it's like a given tat guys shld noe how to start the bbq fire. wonder y this is so...

ok then somehow the fire got started and the food was cooked. so i just ate and ate and was actually planning to leave at 7.15 or 8.45 cos these were the shuttle bus timings. then someone set up the karaoke system and started to sing. so i decided to stay behind a while longer to sing also cos also quite some time nv go ktv liao. then this one free one somemore mah. hahaha. bu chang bai bu chang. then our table got fruits somemore. like real ktv like tat! then even better got free flow food and drinks somemore.

then also 1st time i sing duet also i tink. ehhhh like quite fun to sing lah. cos go ktv with junsheng or mark they all normally is all-guys affair one. haizzzz. ehhh but also only sang halfway then i kena "ding" down the stage liao. cos the person i singing with say i nv sing with feeling. no "gan dong du". ... aiyo i sing song is like tat one mah. ask pple i go ktv with before then they will noe. maybe unless i singing for tat special someone then i can inject feelings into it. hahaha! so like tat keep singing and singing until my backside stuck to the chair liao. then suddenly it was 11pm liao. no more shuttle bus liao also so my colleague gave us a lift to tanah merah mrt and then it turned out tat the last train was gone too. so me and my soccer buddy in the company who had already left the company shared a cab home.

then on the way home i had a nice chat with this soccer buddy. and i found out tat actually the reason he left the company was something tat i had been tinking abt: the lack of a chance for promotion in the company.

cos for my case i was tinking tat there was no way tat i can get a promotion within the next 5-10 years in this company. cos i would either have to wait for either my manager or my shifu to quit. which is like very unlikely. or wait for my manager to retire. which is at least ard 10 years from now. so i may just be an it assistant or maybe the job title's gonna be different but still the same job scope until i'm 30+. tat's really quite scary. then actually we also talked abt qualifications and all those stuff abt work and jobs. haizzz headache ah. but then it was a nice conversation lah.

hmmmm so actually it was quite a nice way to spend my saturday lah. at least nice enuf for me to wanna blog abt it. haha!
