update?? update wat???

i was told to update again.. update wat???

i dunno wat to write leh.... (after 5 mins of thinking).............. (another 5 min of thinking)... ok.. i think i know.. wahahahaha..

Gary just bought a new (well relatively new.. he got it a few weeks ago) game called Catan (the card game version). Let me give you a little insight to the game. It is a settlement development game. The aim is to get 12(base) or 13(expansion) victory points. For more details, refer to http://www1.freewebs.com/curry-pot/cardgaming2.htm --> Gary's webby.

Here's the score as of 30 Sep 07:

  • Base game: Candice (3) Gary (a big FAT 0)
  • Expansion: Candice (nil) Gary (2)

haha. I am so lousy at the expansion. Probably because I am really not sure how to use all the extra cards. haha.. but well.. at least he's good at something!!! heeheehee... wahahahahahah..

The cost of a good game (S$80), a good place to play in (S$4 - my travel expenses), the thrill of winning Gary again and again (PRICELESS!!!)

Gary ranks the games in his blog. But because he is so lousy at this game, I think his game score is really biased. So I shall provide a more objective ranking for THIS game in my blog too.

  • Time requirement: 8/10 (can take pretty long sometimes)
  • Ease of beating Gary (base game): 11/10 (i've never lost to his before)
  • Ease of beating Gary (expansion): 7/10 (i've never beaten him before.. but the score's getting closer.. so i'll beat him someday)
  • Replayability factor : 12/10 (I don't mind winning him all the time in something..)

wahahahaha..

My dreams (and Gary's nightmare)

Gary asked me to update my blog. At first, I have no idea what to write. Then it all came to me.

Gary and I have a dream. To stay together. But then.. I have bigger dreams. I'll highlight it here. Openly for everyone to see. It'll be the worst day of Gary's life.

1. IF he were EVER to propose to me, I want it to be in a VERY crowded place (like in the middle of Orchard Road) or when we go see fireworks
2. I don't really want a very lavish ring or dinner, I just want something that is thoughtful and something that can remind me and us of this day.
3. Honeymoon need not be to Europe/ Australia/ Asia/ South Africa/ any exotic places. Just a nice cruise will do. One week or so should be enough.
4. I want my own place. A small 3-room will suffice. Because I like small cozy places. Big house will only magnify the emptiness of the place.
5. Though I know I dun have any control over the tiles, I want a brown-beige themed place. Like a chalet. This will give me a chance to imagine myself living in Banyan Tree all the time.

Hee. That's all I dream. Haha and I think Gary's scared. Why? If anyone who knows him wll enough will understand that he hates point 1.

Hee.

To Gary: You told me to write, I wrote. =P
