[ 704. Rendezvous ]

Midnight rendezvous with mervin and gang. The previous three posts were done at his place, and after his sugar-laden nightly chat with kc, we finally got out of his place to pick up the midnight kakis -- johnny and sernyong. Had this sudden urge of going for ktv, hence we arrived at toa payoh kbox. Only to find, for $21+++ per pax, we could only have 90 mikes of boombox blasting. So with the desire still in heart, we proceeded to the hougang outlet which will definitely not close at 1am. Upon destination, the duo (less me and merv) decides against $21+++ option for the cheaper alternative: pool. Well, if anyone was from 4H, they would know better than to play with johnny. So basically, by adopting the winner-stay-loser-out policy, the three of us were simply taking turns to spar johnny on the 9 foot table. Oh yes, we went to the outlet at hougang plaza. Not the Kpool, but the "members only" woodball association. Oh yes, membership's only for a buck, with no need for renewal.

Brought the guys to this teochew porridge outlet near srjc. For the record, it's opposite the lim ah pin road post office (if you guys should know where's it). For a start, johnny and sernyong had this misconception that it's those flavoured congee that you find for breakfast at cantonese outlets, and mervin also never tried teochew porridge before. Well, sometimes we just take our heritage for granted i guess. Something that i took for granted is the fact that everyone knows what teochew porridge is all about, just as others expects us to know their culture as well. We youngsters are kinda incomprehensible at times. We do so well for inter-racial interactions and harmony, yet know so little within our own race, differing by dialects only. Such irony. Back to the porridge, it was good plain stuff, with the usuals (for me): boiled sotong, pig's intestines, tau pok, salted eggs, salted vegetables, minced meat. 2 bowls of plain porridge each, and the total set us back by $18 odd. Rather steep, but i guess it beats taking the overly advertised chomp pang nasi lemak.

Oh yes, forgotten to mention this. Mervin parked his dad's car at the HDB carpark opposite hougang plaza as we had our pool game. As we return to the car after the game, the carpark warden (every car owner's nightmare) was just booking the car next to mervin's. Suddenly all our faced paled, and we chepat lari to the car, with that warden staring at us, probably wondering to book us or not for not displaying a coupon. In mervin's haste, he drove the car out, turning to the wrong side into a dead end. Then, he made a series of awkward turns before we finally got out of that carpark. What luck, it's definitely mervin's lucky day.
