XXXmas 2005

This is my second good, scrub myself till I’m red, bath I’ve had in the past 24 hours. The first one was before I took my friend out to the Singapore Science Centre yesterday. The second one was an hour back to wash of vomit and sweat (ala My Sassy Girl).

Last night was so damn wild. We had a vodka party in Ace and Alex’s room. It was me, Alex, Ace and Don…though Ace didn’t drink (thank God for that). I’ve never been so stoned in my entire life. I mean we tried everything…right from pure vodka shots, to apple juice+vodka, sprite+vodka, sprite+vodka+blackcurrent juice and my personal favourite : vodka+sprite+lychees !!

Needless to say, we all (except for Ace) got darn high and started talking all non-sense. There’re even two 10 minute long video recordings of the crap we spoke (which I was laughing my ass off at when I watched them in the afternoon).

But soon after…Don the great puked in front of the door. Alex and Ace were cursing like anything while cleaning the mess up. I was just too stoned to help out (I couldn’t even walk straight), so I just sat at the computer and typed random shit.

“I honestly cant feel my face rite now.
I AM BEING HONEST HERE.
I have never been so drunk in my entire life
I hope i never get this drunk while being with a girl.
I have si many dreams and aspirations….ok…u might think tat i’m acting to be drunk…but i really am right now. This feeling is so awesome…but scary at the same time. Alcohol can have such averse effects on your brain. Can you imagine….
I’ve never ever really felt like this in this my life before
I hope i remember this nite in the morning
Man…I hope i don’t end up like this on sentosa.Fuck,I never knew vodka could do this to you.”

Of course, there’s a little more,involving a certain someone…but I’d rather not publish that (she sometimes reads my blog ). At this point of time I started feeling really uneasy and sweaty. I just kept thinking about going back to my room and falling asleep. But I was too stoned to even stand up. The more I sat there…the more drunk I was starting to feel.

And so when finally Alex and Ace came back from their cleaning spree…and Don came back from the toilet after blacking out over there for around half an hour…it was time for act two.

Puke.

On myself.

On Ace’s wireless keyboard.

His Bed.

His entire floor.

On Don, who was sleeping on the floor.

And all through the corridors.

By the time I reached the toilet…I was all out of puke.

This was the first time in 8 or 9 years I think that I had vomited. I think I spent the next 1 hour just washing my T-shirt, my pant and my hands in the toilet. I was feeling so upset, I kept saying sorry to Ace and Alex…but they were both pretty pissed.

Don was lying in the toilet for a while and eventually fell asleep. I think he was lying over there till the guard came and shooed him away some time in the morning. I just dumped my T-shirt on the sink counter and went downstairs to the TV lounge wearing only my drenched pants. The moment I hit the sofa, I was fast asleep.

Morning came…noon actually. I saw Ace sleeping in the couch in front of me. I could vaguely remember some person in the morning coming into the TV lounge in the morning and saying, “Fucker! You’re sleeping here…I got thrown out of the toilet.”
I presume that was Don.

Ace woke up soon after, and suddenly I was feeling very conscious about my lack of any clothes on top . We chatted for a long time, and he told me that after I had slept, Alex presumably went to sleep on the bus stop…lol!! He wanted to see the star light and street lights and calculate the point above the earths surface, where both their intensities would be the same…hehehehe.

While talking to Ace, I was feeling so damn crappy and low. Post vodka depression I guess. Drinking is obviously not the thing for me. I have one philosophy in life…you can never pass a judgment on anything until you yourself try it out. That’s why I always like to try out new stuff (some things are of course off limits for me, like drugs and smoking). So the following conclusions were made in the morning :

• Vodka tastes awesome…but 350-400ml of it will render you senseless
• It feels really cool to be high…but then it also makes you say stupid things
• I’m never gonna overdrink again…I just don’t have the capacity for it
• I’ll never ever have a booze party in my own room
• Puking results in zero hangover
• Puking also results in dehydration and weakness
• I love my friends

Came back and started writing this blog after my bath. Ace called me up to check on me and asked if I wanted to go to JP. I was feeling damn weak, but I knew I needed to eat something. So went along with him and ate some yummy chicken noodle on a pan thingy. (I think I was looking exactly like that guy from My Sassy Girl after he gets released from the police station and is eating to his hearts content ). Alex was having post Vodka depression for the rest of the day coz he was the only one whose stomach hadn’t turned inside out (even Ace puked a little bit after he saw me and Don puke our guts out). He watched Grave of the Fireflies and almost cried! Hope he’s feeling better now. We weren’t able to go to the SPI dinner (which would’ve been so awesome). Ahh well…

Oh…and something very funny happened in the afternoon. After I woke up in the TV lounge and chatted with Ace…I told him to get me a T-Shirt…coz I was topless. He got me the one which he had borrowed from me some time back. I wore it and went to get my stuff from his room. I then realized that I had forgotten my wallet in the lounge.
When I went back over there…two Singaporean girls were standing near the sofas. As soon as they saw me, they started smiling and giggling softly. Ace told me later on that they had come to the TV lounge early in the morning and were ironing their clothes while I was sleeping merrily in all my half naked glory!

Now that’s adding insult to injury .
