I awoke this morning feeling the usual heavy headedness that ensues a night of endless pursuits downing shots and mixtures. Truth is the month is December, the end of the year and parties are popping up everywhere. The most mundane reasons presents itself as an opportunity to get inebriated.
Friday
Had a casual meet-up with reservist buddies over at a KTV pub in Tanjong Pagar. (2 beer towers)
Headed over to Zouk for Denny's Birthday party (2 bottles of Chivas and a Martell, shots of Jaegerbomb and tequilas)
Saturday
Met up with Justin, Denny, Melodie and Yani at winebar (2 jugs of Whiskey Dry, 2 jugs of Vodka redbull and some bottles of beer somewhere in between i remember 2 shots of flaming Lamborghinis)
Sunday
Justin, Denny, Yap and Yani at Legends Siglap (1 bottle of Chivas)
Bounced over to Zouk for Steve Aoki's set (2 jugs of Whiskey tonic and some Jaegerbombs)
It is clear to see that my liver has taken some punishment over the long weekends. The joys of yesternight's intoxication comes back to haunt me the moment i wake up, with constant headaches and nausea. Feelings of vertigo persists for the next 4-5 hours before the temptation of more drinks drives me back to the gutters. And i still have 2 parties to attend this month, Shawn's super belated birthday celebration (40 bottles of the devil's piss) and Zoukout 2008.
The constant partying has caused my body to disagree with me and as i type in this post with jaundiced fingers, my stomach is churning itself inside out threatening to release its contents over my new laptop. If you cut me now with a knife i'm pretty sure i would bleed vodka.
Anyway, on a lighter note my beloved girlfriend will be coming home in 2 weeks time (Cheers and applause) bringing around more reasons to celebrate. Honestly i can hardly believe that 4 arduous months have come to pass in such a short time. The dread of her departure is now greeted with the anxiety of her return. Daily tele-conversations only increases the anticipation of seeing her again which has now reached a point where i would gladly give up a kidney and a testicle just to have her back in Singapore again. The old adage "Absence makes the heart grow fonder" is proved to be true in this respect.
December is a good month, parties after parties and the return of a loved one.
