Boat Quay

Was out with Ken tonite. I guess it is those once in a blue moon type other than clubbing. Cos during clubbing, we din have much time to chat. It will be music, dance and drinks. Reminded me of the days when we were in poly and NS. We went to a couple of places. Boat Quay was the last stop.

We are sentimental pple. While walking down boat quay, it reminded us of the times we spent with many pple. I wonder how these pple are doing. We used to patronise the now dyfuction Coffee Club in boat quay. I used to go with him once a week, sometime only 2 of us, sometime with hao and gang. Later, fatty and gang plus zhi and gang tagged along. Those were the days.

I remembered after exams we will hit the streets of boat quay. Ken was telling me a couple of days ago was fatty birthday. Well, we used to celebrate her bday but now, no more. Time have changed and our life have moved on. In the past, we used to hang ard UOB building. After 911, the mgmt stepped up its security and we no longer have the chance to get into the building.

Before 911, our gang of lin, ewen, keith, hao and ying used to go to the 36th storey of UOB building. Over there, we get a good bird eye view of Singapore's night scene. Well, i wanted to enjoy daytime scenery too. So during my attachment with KPMG, i would always hang ard the building during lunch hour. Ha.. I would bring along my receiver, get myself a drink and chilled out at the lobby of 36th floor. How i miss those days.

Boat Quay has left many memories of our poly days. Ken and i took a rest at Coffee Bean too. It was patronised by us many years ago too. Surprising, it is still there with Da Wan Zhou next to it. Ken said life have changed but we are still attached to the old memories we had at Boat Quay. True enough, considering the tough times we went thru together in SP.

In poly, when every other students are bonding with their new friends, getting involved in relationship, we are always thinking of ways and actions to save our ass. No one knows wat is going to happen the next day. Today, Miss A is super friendly with you, tomolo she turns her back against u and give u a stab. We have encountered many of these incidents. Can you believe it, 17-18 year old kids doing these?

10 years have passed. Most of us are no longer in contact. Should we ever meet up one day, how would things be like? Zhi, dai huai, tax specialist, skull, black bird, curl, fei fei, luo, zai po, diao man, spirit chua, shen bian, marist, dior, fen fen zhong, meiying, david, melvin. I can never forget these pple cos they make me see how evil the real world can be. I should thank them for making me stronger.
