Labour Weekend

It had been 147 days, over 4 1/2 months since the last public holiday. Was it a long time coming? Hell yeah!

It's absolutely amazing how much difference an extra day to the weekend makes. It’s almost a weekly ritual that Sunday is when I moan and groan that I have work the following day. But during the Labour weekend, it was different. Good thing was that it came to Sunday and thank goodness it wasn’t the end of the weekend! Bad thing was that the Monday felt like a Saturday. So when I woke up on Tuesday morning, I definitely wished it was Sunday again! *SiGh*!

There isn’t too much to say about that weekend. I tried to get more sleep in order to recover from my cold. It seemed to have worked. I went to 2 drinking/BBQ parties during that weekend – Saturday evening and yesterday afternoon. Crazy people! They ended up wrestling on the grass. *fAiNt*! Check it out:

Don't know how it switched from basketball to wrestling but it all started with Simon and Jia Ming...

... Soon after, joined by Ah Tuan...

... Followed by Chin Yang & Jackie (who initially just wanted to pose for the camera) ...

... But ended up at the bottom of the pile!

... And so it continued...

It took three of them to attempt to bring Jackie to the ground who managed to get away but ran straight into the knot of the clothes hanger wire. *OuCh*! I don't know which would be worse.

And yet, that didn't stop them...

Jia Ming: "Can you smell what the rock is cooking?"

They soon got over the amusement of wrestling and endured in pouring beer all over each other - poor unwilling bodies were carried out from the house while some were attacked while innocently watching them do their thing...

Ah Tuan & Chin Yang...

And to think, that their combined age would be almost 200 years old. Need I say more?

P.S. Justin: This post is dedicated to you. I bet you're missing Christchurch right now! :P
