Night of Decadence
New Year's Eve yesterday, our last nite of work at BT.
Damn happening. The most crowded nite there since BT re-opened in Kebangan.
Haha, sure was fun ;D
Most pple only started pouring in around 11pm, n we had Judy (our ex-KJ from BT last time in Duxton Rd) behind the console again - the music was happening sia.
Really diff when she's the KJ (as compared to the amateurish works of the still 'apprenticing' Rose or Abby - our other colleagues).
Whoooh! The countdown was such a success!
Haha, she really noes how to create the atmosphere man ;p
As usual, after the countdown when the clock struck 12, there were bear hugs n wet kisses all ard :) Plus the crowd there last nite were nearly all old BT regulars...
Haha, really felt like the old BT man.
And it was Ben's birthday ytd too!
Is that a coincidence or wat?
Mrs chua onli told us bout it in the morn before we went for work, so xiang n i hadn't got time to prepare any elaborate gifts. but anyway, wat do u get a rich guy who supposedly has all the material aspects of life which he can get himself anyway?
So, in the end, after a short debate whether to get him a card, a cake, or wat not, we decided on these cakes from a bakery in Bukit Batok (near where xiang stays anyway) that sells these absolutely adorable miniature bday / all-purpose cakes - round, about 6-7cm across, n comes in more than two dozen flavours.
xiang dropped by the cake shop on our way to meet to go work n picked out three - mango, strawberry n blueberry-chocolate.
We weren't sure wat flavour Ben likes, so we chose a variety.
Turned out mango was his favourite flavour of cake ^.^
We gave Ben the cakes in secret when we reached BT (mrs chua has asked us not to let the other staff noe - this will jus be between the four of us).
Could see that he n mrs chua were very happy :)
So glad.
(keke, he really behaves like a kid when he's happy. so hyperactive =p n he's wat? 50 or so? lolx.)
We even sneaked in a few kisses, like one of our first time ever wif Ben.
lolx! ;p
But we only celebrated Ben's birthday way after midnite ytd (the day of his bday), when the crowd had thinned out about 3am.
Birthday song n everything. Still, a quieter event than the countdown.
Just as well. Since there wasn't enough cake to go ard =p
Spooned-fed everybody (or those near enough to me) but seemed like Ben n i were the ones who ate the most =p lol.
He was so happy with the cakes that we're so glad we got him that :)
We cut n ate two of the three cakes there at BT n left wif one which i insisted he brought home to eat himself. He kept reminding Mrs chua (as he was high near the end of the nite already) to remember to bring it back home so he can have it for breakfast.
So sweet of him :)
In the end, cos some customers lingered so late (-.-), xiang n i knocked off only at 5+ am. The rest of the staff had already went back, n we were wondering y (since they were the full-time staff n xiang n i were part-timers paid hourly, jus seemed more logical that they stayed n we left earlier to save costs), when mrs chua whispered to us that they were bringing us out for supper (or breakfast, since none of us expected that we'll be forced to close so late).
so touched~ X/
Went down Geylang to eat ;)
haha... an eye-opener sia.
it was nearly 6 when we reached, the time when the prostitutes were 'knocking off' for the day, and we saw alot of them from where we were eating o_O (woah... *raise eyebrows* some of them are soooo pretty sia, if i were a man my jaws wud be touching the ground. as it is, i'm wiping drool off my skirt every few minutes) as well as a couple of pimps (fuckers. the poor women worked so hard n here they were literally shaking their legs n living off their hard work n sacrifices. they're the ones we shd look down on).
Ah well.
By the time I reached home (ben n mrs chua got us a cab – it was too dangerous for jus the two of us gals standing on the roadside. Already we were getting a lot of stares n suggestive looks. It was Geylang after all. N we're practically fighting wif all the other prostitutes for a cab -.- man.), it was already 6.30am.
All in all, it had been a good nite n a really fun way to end 2004.
Smth I din expect since we've been giving all our eves of important occasions to work at BT for the past 2-3 years.
At least this last new year’s eve had ended on a truly enjoyable note :)
At least, the end of 2004 was a truly memorable one...
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU~
Hope 2005 will be a better year for all of us :)

Night of decadence.
Maybe I shdn't have done wat I have done. It sure dun mean anything to either of us.
Just a nite of fun. And abandon.
Still remembering some of the nite's events…
He was so sexy... And we were intoxicated.
Playing like that was pure spur of the moment. A novelty.
Wonder will i regret it in the near future? Maybe yes. Probably no.
Wonder will it change me?
Anyway. It'll be something to remember of the last of 2004...
