Drinking session in hall after banner painting. Jane, Liqiang, Edwin, Ben, Grace, Tianyun, Zhongyu, Shawn, Eileen, Dickson and I. Shawn relates hilarious anecdote involving male masturbation. Laughter all around. Vodka, beer and Bailey’s. mmm.

Met up with yonglong after 2 years of him maturing in canada. realised he has never seen the esplanade, nor taken a ride on the NEL, nor used an EZ link card. weird. what he has done, though, include humanitarian work in kosovo, roaming europe on a shoestring, shaving his head for charity, and smoking pot. nothing much else has changed, really.
restaurant hopped. thai express, olio, marche, then new asia for a while, before finally settling down at introbar @ swissotel. scrapped plans to go to dblO cos weijian and nathan looked like they might just keel over, splutter blood and die any minute.
party boke up at around 1am. alex and i headed to lau pa sat for supper.
taxi home.
27/6/04 (today)
