After many days of saving up, selling off some of my things and the best of all the collection of ang paus... I finally bought my keyboard!

I bought the last one on the shelf which original price is 1.1k as quoted by Yamaha and they are selling it at $600 because they only got the one on display left. The keyboard looks perfectly fine so why not?

Then the best shit happens, they told me there isn't any box for this huge-ass keyboard and I either get a case which cost 40 bucks or carry that thing back just like that. Just like that, Yamaha scammed my $40, screw them.

The keyboard I believe is around 7-10 kg and should I tell you that the case doesn't help at all?


That's the newest item in my asset.

We then had the craziest idea, to go to crossfire for lan games. When I got home to put my precious keyboard, Samantha suddenly asked me when is the Corfu incident. I was like why is she asking me history like at 10pm and then I finally remembered I had to do a History Quiz online.

Anyway that was when I was about to go to crossfire and without even preparing by swallowing the whole lecture book, I just do the quiz like a soldier stupid enough to chiong to fight an army.
I think I broke the Guinness world record by finishing it within 2 mins when I am given 8 mins of time.

Yes I failed the quiz with a score of 8/20, that is why we need to
Handle our impulsivity, Lang kiang jiu ho, mai kay kiang (be smart enough, don't act smart)

We took I think the last bus to simpang bedok and much to our horror, the lan shop is fully occupied. We thought we can wait till there are computers avaliable for us and we waited from 12am to 4am, walking all the way to bedok central to pass time.

In the end we just cabbed home with our middle fingers pointing towards the direction of crossfire, waste our time.
