Invitation to Cheriss First Birthday 36..a




Aiping invited me to her brother's baby first birthday about 1 month ago as i recently has recovered more from sick and forgotten to update fiona about it, about noon time i asked if she can join me to their party as she was outside with her granny at ct area and needs time to travel by time prepare would be after 6.30pm and we took a cab to the location, b4 we hop on the cab.. i phoned aiping and asked her where is the exact location? she wrote on paper the letter K i guess it looks like Ic and.. the unit 36a, she told me it's at telok kurau road ..and think so it's correct, when we almost arrive that area, the cab driver told us he is not sure of the unit location and drop us around unit 20 but that was opposite the telok kurau road ..called Lor G telok kurau or something, i called her up again .. when i said we can't find 36a and she told us it's 36..9 and omg it's totally 3 digit not 2 digit wor!! so.. we cross the road to search for it but fiona says she saw the number till 400+ and point that way in but it looked quite dark and the road sign was joo chiat xxx .. i was saying it does'nt looks that way.. halfway in.. i was saying can't be this way because there must be alot of cars since 50-60 people are going, and she said .. ya hor can't be so quiet.. and we were at middle of the place where there is 365 and 372 but no 369.. on phone she told use it's middle of the road with 2 rows of bungalows.. and i replied her.. i know every lane look exactly the same as she describe, with busstop too, telok kurau road [everywhee has this sign] noticing the wrong way we walked out b4 that we asked some resident.. he does'n even know the way and keep talking crap to us.. i said it's better we find it on our own, then went to the main road and phoned again aiping's dad was on the phone with me and i told him we were opposite 'east shore medical center' how do we go from the direction.. we tried walking towards the shop house and i bth sit at the sell seafood place with fiona 'dunno what company, only got prawn,fish,crab picture then seafood word, i told ap we are at the ang gong seafood place' she told us she's on the way out to fetch us, i asked her to describe the place and we saw a petrol station.. SP ..green colour.. b4 that i thot it was caltex but there is no Star logo.. and she told me there's 2 Caltex, 1 Shell opposite there is 1 Esso.. near St.patric primary.. we took cab again heading near tanjong katong..fiona said she knows the secondary school location, and i was wanting to give up saying to meet at parkway as it's almost 8.30pm and we have not had our dinner, when we at the entrance of taxi stand.. the 2nd driver told us he does not know where is near St.patric primary, aiping is worry that she does not know the way back from parkway if she meet us there.. the damn driver was bad in attitude telling us 'St.patric Ah very far from here near upper eastcoast leh' then i replied 'nevermind u just drive there' he was like 'wah lao eh reach liao parkway now where you want to go again? i never ever meet people like these not knowing the way there, is your friend not from singapore don't even know the road name?' then i asked ap to see around if there is road sign..she can't pronounce it and spelled out but her voice was quite soft.. 'margai road' and i tell the driver 'uncle you know margai road anot?' he: never hear before, i: margai road leh uncle!, he: hwo do you spell it? wahlao.. st.patric then now go where? i:'m.a.r.g.a.i he: Oh! Maggie road ar? so such road name! ... #$@!^%&&^% then i told ap.. why not we meet at the shell, driver:ask her for the main road name i:ok.. what is main road or other road sign name? "eas coast road" the uncle step the padal fly till upper east coast -> this is st.patric secondary on your right, on left we past by 'wast shore hospital road sign' and remember aiping mentioning she pass that way, then the uncle insist. .Shell is very far from here.. the Shell with a big 7-11.. almost reach bedok liao.. i asked ap on phone got a big 7-11 there anot? she replied no.. only Esso opposite, then the uncle think quite sometime 'i was saying Uncle.. East Coast Road not Upper East Coast' he U-turn back... as i was saying this is not the direction going to reach Bedok liao leh, when we arrive at the Correct Shell Patrol Station, the uncle was still saying 'where is your friend? still want to go where?' we were saying we are dropping here, fiona also can't tolerate suan the uncle say 'uncle you know we are going to her friend's party, we took 2 cabs and spent almost $20 liao leh.' that driver is like keep complain and nag to us..i was like duh.. if really can't find we will go else where for dinner..
so it was not margai road after all karkit.. i said anything lah.. kitkat road..

at the shell ap showed us the way there and we were super late cause we really lost our way and we actually arrive at 7pm+ and.. 9pm then reach their place.. i pass the gift to ap.. and she hand over to her bro.. her relatives had all eyes on us making us feel like superstar.. then breaking the cold ice 'who are they? who's who's friends huh?' then ap's parents were like ..yaya.. ping's friends lost their way.. then ap's dad more nervous.. say comecome.. so late they must be very hungry already. .come get your food first.. then also said: 'as long as you are safe here can already..' after the dinner n cake.. her relatives chat with us.. told us to help ourselves.. all very warming, saying we very 'you xin' to come but lost our way actually we reached very early but ap feels shy to tell them, they could have came to fetch us, when we were saying to leave, i was saying if can just show us the way but 1 of her relative brought us to the busstop area to take bus back, finally the whole thing end.. had a unforgettable day -.-!
