Adrenaline Rush
Saturday, November 10th, 2007 | 11:23 pm
..as mentioned, my day was totally filled with hot boiling rush. 
at noon, i met up with eleana and gabriel at orchard who accompanied me for my shopping spree. they are both my certified fashion consultants. we strolled in the vicinity for 4-5 hours.. but nothing exclusive caught our eye. we paid alvin’s ex-workplace a visit for job hunting.. alvin’s boss was really nice to me lah! she waited for me for interview after returning from lunch break and made a few phone calls just to confirm my arrival. alvin even called to rush my arrival. as usual, with alvin’s presence, we were able to acquire a few delights. i saw shi wei who walked up to scare me while i was messaging.
it was time to meet up with alvin lee, and we departed from orchard respectively. i headed to bishan with an emotional rush, thinking that i might be late and how alvin would probably curse the hell outta me.. BUT it was him who was late this time. (i can manage my time well okay) dropping the position arrival topic, we proceeded to bishan stadium to catch a soccer match between my soka team and celebrity team which consisted of some artistes, gurmit singh, tang yu shu, chen li ping, randall tan, chen rong ming, zheng ge ping, steven tan, chen shi wei .etc
there were so many people with only a few familiar faces, one of it was si min. felicia chin even came to give her support! the match ended 2-0, the celebrity team was victorious. the match was as enjoyable as any other live soccer matches, except that i would prefer to be a tv audience and there would be replays of every goal scored. i couldn’t remember clearly all the goal stances. the first goal was made by tang yu shu (probably lucky due to his just married wife), while the second was made by steven tan (i think).
live footage of the match. thanks to alvin. 
we left shortly after the match ended with much disappointment of not being able to take photos with the celebs.. only a few lucky ones were selected to interact with their desired celebs. our disappointment were worsen by our hunger, thus we decided to travel to lot 1 to have our dinner as well as pay andrea a visit.
have you encountered those dropouts/hooligans who claimed to be selling pens for “charity“? they are usually positioned around train stations. today was my fifth or sixth encounter with such people. i gotta admit, today’s was the BEST i’ve ever seen. his scamming tactics were impressive and his oral skills were undeniably powerful. initially, he stuffed two pens, each into our hands and claimed that it was a no obligation offer and that the pens were free. i would say he’s probably the most persuasive guy i’ve ever met. with much persuading effort, i still hold on ground and insisted that i would not help in their fund raising.
guess what happened?

he snatched the pen away and turned his attention to alvin. alvin being soft-hearted, was on the verge of getting cheated. he sounded like it was compulsory to give our helping hand to those unfortunates. it was a total contradict to what he said previously. i would find it senseless to spare a penny to the likes of these scammers. these self-proclaim to be the servants of charity would not send those raised funds to the need people, instead, into their own pockets. one good example was a guy whom i encounter during my outing with kelvin some months ago, ironically, it was a friendly approach and he exposed to us that these activities were only appeared to be carried out in the name of non-profit charity organisations..
come to think of it, there was an url printed along the pen package, “www.cropsinternational.com”, which is a fake and it doesn’t relate to anything the scammer was describing.
okay i sidetracked. anyway, we managed to shake him off while leaving him with a black face. hehe.
these scammers could claim and come up with any reasons under the sun… be sure to hold your ground and not let his/her words get into you. it wouldn’t be wise to even fork out 2 bucks, not to mention if one is in a financial crisis state.
we were not much affected by his aggression, and we continued our journey to chua chu kang. coincidentally, i met wei ping who seemed to have boarded the train from bishan too. he was working at junction 8 and explained that the previous scammer was indeed a fake, and that he was sick of seeing him everyday. that, further proved my experience correct to alvin.
after a long conversation with wei ping, we alighted at chua chu kang and headed straight for lot 1. we didn’t spot andrea along the way.. guess she had finished her work already.
we had a quick meal at long john silver and headed home.
Happy Birthday to wei li btw. finally can go kpool.
tomorrow is the match between singapore slingers and adelaide 36ers, i doubt i can find time to join precious and the others. sigh. 
.p.s would upload the video i took during the match asap.
