Green Tea

Today was a (sort of) sabbath for me... Woke up REALLY late and tried to do some Heart Embryology... By the way, for those of you who don't check your mail but do visit my blog (okay that doesn't make any sense), this website is EXCELLENT for embryology stuff:

http://www.indiana.edu/~anat550/

Then you go to the link "human embryology animations". With the animations, I can now understand the formation of the heart very well, as well as the formation of the greater/lesser sac in GIT. Damn good la.

So after doing some heart embryology, it was time to go back to school (RI) to play street soccer =p okay rather ironic it should be called "astroturf soccer" but you get the idea.

I think I'm getting better with each game I'm playing, both in NUS and in RI twice a week... Almost a throwback to the days when I was playing soccer regularly. Didn't score any goals today (aiyah dammit Zeying!) but I did have a hand in several... I think I got the most assists in the match (or matches).

There was this new ang moh guy today (new being, he hasn't played with us before), I think his name is Leslie (at least that's what the back of his shirt said... It was a LIVERPOOL jersey... With the number 10. How cool is that man...). His shots are super sick... He will take outrageous shots with his left foot from any angle at any distance and the ball either JUST misses, or goes in. Haha... We all called him Dirk Kuyt.

Anyway after the first game (amongst ourselves) we then played against our juniors from RI. Wow the young players are getting better and better... After we went 3-0 up at first they soon drew level, then we had to end the game (before we lost). Haha! Nah... It was getting late already.

Seems like today isn't the day for green tea... I just wasn't fated for it today haha.

First, when I was walking out in the sweltering heat to the bus stop to go to RI, I decided to buy a bottle of "Heaven and Earth Jasmine Green Tea" at 7-11 =p... It's really good. Anyway, the queue at 7-11 was longer than usual (there were 2 guys who bought over $60 worth of beer!) and unnaturally, I decided to wait the queue to buy the drink. By the time I got out to the bus stop, I saw bus 52 flash past. AARGHHH

Then later in school, during a water break through our game, I went to buy a can of the same green tea at those new vending machines, you know the kind where you can see the drinks through the plastic and press A1, A2 all the way to E5 or something like that to choose your drink? Then after choosing the drink this slide-thingy moves to the level of the drink and the outermost drink drops onto it and the slide-thingy will bring it to the level of the hole where the drink drops to and you can take it out right? After I pressed A1 to get green tea, the slide-thingy moved all the way up, the drink dropped onto it, then the slide-thingy moved down toward the level of the hole. Then it continued to go down... All the way to the bottom. I was STARING at the green tea I bought at the bottom of the vending machine!!! AARGHHH

The funniest part was, after the games I went back to see the machine right, the drink was GONE! O_O

I hope the fella who got the free drink enjoyed it. Lol...

Okay I'm going off to Changi Airport to pick my sis up... She's coming back from Melbourne tonight. Signing off!
