Rarely have I considered a day as good, what more worth documenting. But such do come by and I suppose this day could be one of them, possibly due to the occurance of several “happy” things.

Went down to Takashimaya this afternoon to shop for a french press. Sort of cracked my old press when I brought it to school last week, so don’t dare use it anymore for fear it may break. Which was why I was hesitant to bring it to school in the first place but thought I’d be extra careful. Oh well, things happen. Was rather sad about it but I guess this is a good excuse to retire it from use and put it away for safe-keeping.

Anyway the Bodum presses were really chio. So nice to see, touch and use. Don’t really know why but then that could be why the cheapest one cost like over $30 to over $80 for other models the same size. Want one of those but can’t really afford them. Found a 3-cup press at Seiyu going for $16 but since the 9-cup one at Ikea was going for only $20, decided only to buy only if I find one below $13. So happy I found a nice 3-cup press going for $11 at Taka today, and it comes with a measuring spoon too. The spring is not as tight as I would like but then it’s cheap and nice. Yippe. Can start making coffee again!

After that went had nasi lemak at Paradiz Food Court and it was good. Comparable to Adam’s so nothing very exciting. But what’s fun was the SGL Annivesary LAN Party after that. Kinda sad that not everyone was able to make it but it’s still good to see old faces and start fragging like good old days. Ele being the prez on hunted, mass spamming dustbowl, our traditional trademark: Spy vs HW. Tried out Half-Life 2 as well and it was really fun. Mok came late and joined us when we were playing BF but unknown to him we were downloading HL2 in the background. He realised that only when we finished with BF and the biggest joke was when we decided to stop playing HL2 then did he finish downloading it. Not exactly one of the coziest places we had played but still had a great time nonetheless. Well that didn’t stop Mok from shouting his warnings of attacks. “Incoming Medic!” heh.

Went to chillz at this pub across the road, near Netizens where we had our party last year. They had this cozy attic for one table. Nice and dark place and we’re the only ones inside. Everyone else was outside cos they all were probably smoking. The music was kinda loud but I think everyone was just to lazy to get them to change it. Took the traditional group photo there though there were fewer people as some went off earlier. Beef Hor Fun with Arch and Tix at Geylang sort of ends up the day nicely.

Shopping, Gaming, Chilling and Food. What more could make a better day? Fondue perhaps…
