Finally A.Y.C.E!

The (relatively) last-minute planned night outing was SUCCESSFUL!



But before I get to that... ABERDEEN FLOODED! When I got to work, the first floor sales floor was drenched. As we made our way into the back room/staff room, the water was even deeper! Deep enough to reach and soak up my pants! We had to move all our boxes and merchandise to higher grounds. The water in the warehouse was the most damaging. We had to close off the first floor for the morning. Other first-floor stores that had their stores located on the outer side (w/ windows) were the most prone to the flooding. Heehee, only a year old and Aberdeen can't withstand a simple thunderstorm. Imagine earthquakes.



I got off work, went to the bank to get some $$$, dropped off Jo's stuff at Jo's place and went straight home to shower. After showering, the crew already arrive at my doorstep before I start rummaging around for an umbrella for the gloomy, grey weather making them wait some more in the car. We meet up with more people at the casino. Almost everyone goes in, 'cept me and Jo. Instead we took the car and drove off to the night market, which was pretty deserted for a Saturday night. The place was covered in giant puddles and rain came off and on... luckily me and Jo both had our own umbrellas. We window shopped and were drawn to the delicious aroma of the food stands but we refrained from buying anything. We also got to listen to the William Hung CD when we were there... he doesn't sing as bad as we thought.



We met up with the gamblers afterwards and made our way to Aji Taro for our reserved table for LATE NIGHT ALL YOU CAN EAT! We got there a little early so we were told to wait a bit. Then that 'little bit' became 20+ mins. The meal was pretty satisfying 'cept there were a few disappointing dishes. Either my jaws hurt because of the sour soup in the sunomono or from laughing too much. XD



After the FOOD, we went to play billards at Cue. On our way there, we witnessed a post-car accident which was kinda whoa. We played for (surprisingly) 2 hours before we decided to call it quits. Um, me and Simon won one by default because the opposing team scratched with the 8-ball. Fun. :D And yeah, we only won one game. lol~ All the games were sooo close though... We'd always be fighting over the 8-ball at the end.



We considered a few things to do afterwards but we realized that not many things were open after 2am so we all headed home. We *did* consider playing a batsu game with really shitty beer and big-2, but nah.



On another note, my next paycheque'll be all gone by the time I get it. Korean BBQ tonight for my bro's b-day. I think I'm going to get him Chains of Promathia for his present after all. It's unfortunate I will never reach that expansion pack myself. That reminds me, I need to get around to restarting Wild Arms 3 sometime soon.
