Heroes IV

Had a half-hearted intention of going to NUS today. The meeting is to be held next Monday. Usually it would take me 1 1/2 hours to reach the campus; this time it only took 1hr 10 min. By the time I arrived at the scene, zx was already sprawling on the table. His free tuition was also cancelled.


It could not have been mere coincidence. We bumped into Raymond; I also bumped into Whitney and Esther. All looked happy. Accompanied Eddie to the NUS library (where else?) to search for physics tomes. His joy is derived from perusing formulaes, theories and equations.


After paying a visit at our humbly small library, we went to Paradiz and meet up with Eddie's friends for a LAN session. AO joined us after almost one year of wandering in jianghu. Alas, my stamina for DoTA games has decreased. Could not help but feel tired after the 2nd one.


Had a simple but nice meal at a nearby chicken rice stall. Later went to some soy bean stall with oil sticks for some desserts. Surprisingly, it had a second storey that is air-conditioned. So we loboed there for around 2 hours enjoying the aircon. A bunch of girls later came into this room, drowning out all other sources of noise, including us.


After the heroes had dispersed back to their clans (with AO lugging his weaponry and equipment), I managed to find a seat on the train. On the way to Pasir Ris, a group of young kids sat down beside me. All had some piercing through the lips, like a cattle ring. The most apt words to describe them--- "emo kias". Most likely they belong to some gang, though I guess they could only be 16 the most. Very young rebels indeed. Gave them the TB look when they blared their handphone music "Superwoman".


Finally get to have some rest. I realised I had not enjoyed an afternoon nap for weeks already.
