I'm auditioning for the role of the Big Bad in the next season of Buffy

And I'm gonna be a better vampire than both Angel and Spike because 1) I drink and 2) I have a tattoo that will put their fangs to shame...haha

So I've been drinking for the past 2 nights till like 2am...the first night was just beer. Nothing much actually. The 9 of us cleared abt 15 cans of beer that night...was slightly tipsy after that...couldn't walk straight but was still able to maintain myself

And so, we decided that the beer didn't give enough kick that night, so we went to VCC and got like...was it 3 litres of Barcadi...apparently it's hard liquor (40%) and the game is on. Got to drink quite a bit (because i had to drink like 8 mouthfuls of it after cassandra and another idiot gave me 4 mouthfuls each)...and i down like 1/4 cup of it because i really had to visit the bathroom and the only way to leave is to down the cup.

Was losing my bearings nearing the end of the game. Kaylen gave up midway through and i was forcing myself to last through the whole session. Couldn't really stand up at all and it was so difficult to focus on the game when the whole world is spinning. And due to the milkshake incident, everyone is preparing for me to puke (of course i didn't...I'm evil now). Managed to get back to my room and climb up to my bed (living on the top) and I'm not very sure why...but i came down and went up like 4-5 times and just paced around. The dizziness got even worst after the lights were off...it was like darkness spinning (i know it doesn't make sense...that's why it's called drunk)

And in the morning, there was a company trip to Virginia beach. Not gonna upload anything on the beach cos i thought it was terrible...the beach is overcrowded.

Anyway, decided to go our separate ways since everyone wanted to do different stuff. Some went to the sea, others decided to cycle around, and I went to explore on foot with Jia Pei and Pauline.

Haunted Mansion...LOL

Walked around the areas...there's a lot of eateries and tattoo shops around. Was pretty hungry (actually, we just had to try the pancake), so we entered a pancake shop and ordered an apple pancake. As usual, the pancake is huge...

There're supposed to be 3 pieces but Pauline took one already...imagine having all 3 to urself for breakfast...no wonder the Americans have a weight problem

Everything was fine until Jia Pei suggested that i should get a tattoo...and Pauline seconded it (they just wanted to see how it's done...and sadly, i was the only guy there). And of course i didn't agree to it immediately. My reputation as a mild-mannered, well-natured boy is at stake!!! Anyway, it took me a couple of streets down before agreeing to it. Virginia is pretty famous for their tattoo...so i thought i should give it a shot, so 我的第一次献给了美国. I wanted a pair of wings on my back but I thought it was quite expensive and the gals thought it was a bit girly. So i settled for a ferocious panther eventually. Had to walk around the street topless for more than an hour for the tattoo to dry...another incident to add to my most-embarrassing-list.

I know wat u are thinking...nope, it's not painful

Haha...they were saying that i look pretty tensed up (who wouldn't), so had to do a cute pose. Oh my, the tan line looks bad...:(

The almost finished product...a ferocious panther that casts fear into the hearts of my sworn enemies and those careless enough to cross my path.

Met up with the rest for lunch and shared 2 pizzas among the 11 of us...yup, once again, it was that big...20 inch per pizza if my memories served me well. It was pretty boring after lunch...just strolling around, trying to find a post office to send postcards but to no avail. Eventually just shopped around, had some food at Macdonalds and left for the dorm.

Priceless reaction from Elisa (it was actually staged-_-)

This is an official road sign in US...I think it means that drivers are not allowed to scold vulgarities or point their middle finger etc...the weird things u find in America..

And if u thought that was weird...these are traffic lights. They were hanging on a thread and swaying around and i dun even know how do drivers know which one to look at

This was actually very funny. Cassandra caught this man "walking his pet" and ran across the street after him like a patient from the mental asylum just to get a picture with his "pet". I got to touch it as well

And so, it was a pretty crazy 2-3 days for me...got a lot of alcohol in my system and got a tattoo for myself...I still think that I can go slightly more crazy...hope there's more to come:)

Mark the new mob boss in town (beware Angel and Spike...u are abt to get dethroned)

PS: Woah...all these blogging is really taking up a lot of time. Imagine working 9 hrs a day, 3 hrs in the kitchen...very little time is left to read, watch video and blog. But blogging is still an essential for this trip. Imagine a couple of yrs down the road and someone asked wat u did in America...and u dun rmb a thing or anything significant details...that would be very sad. At least, i have everything jotted down in pretty vivid details...and have something to refer to when i look back in time...


And I got my bank card as well. Pretty cool looking. I hope it doesn't lead to more shopping:-p
