This Is Our Story

Haven't been blogging for the past 3 days....

This is because both dear and I were out of town...
hehe...
we went to Wesley's House in Bidor....

Day 1 : 28 June 2008 (Saturday)
We were quite early when we first reached HELP..
Had breakfast and then we head to Wesley's Hostel...which is HELP newly built hostel...which cost RM470 twin sharing....with aircond and attached toilet....however, you need to pay your own electric bill which will add up to around RM500 per month....that's alot for a small room...
Anyway, i'm not suppose to be in the room...but i didn't know that...haha...until i read the notice behind the pass where floor 2 to 8 is strictly no entry for females while flo0r 9 to don't know what is strictly prohibited for males....haha....so we gather at floor 1 which is the common room so that we can play Unhinged(not sure about the spelling)...hehe....it's a MAGIC card but the ability of each cards were rather comedy....

while we were drafting...Wesley's dad arrived...so we head off to Bidor...after 45minutes...we arrived at Tanjung Malim....had our lunch and continued our journey which is around an hour or so.....and we reached Bidor....didn't managed to take any picture...hehe....

anyway, we continued our Unhinged game....and laugh throughout.....
some of the cards have weird ability like.....
Tree Shoe....put 2 SHOE token on the card...
Standing Army....as long as you are standing, standing army gain Vigilance..
Fat Ass....if you are eating, Fat Ass got +2/+2...
then there are many more that i can't remember their name.....
need to sing to untap cards, cannot touch the table, cannot touch face, cannot laugh, cannot talk...
a good way to release stress...haha...

After dinner, we have deck test...and analysis or things like that....
then, we went mamak....yum cha...haha...
after that, we continue our game....
and sleep around 1 something 2....
