my hall 16A #03-04

jz when emmy and geri blogging bout their big move to hall 16 for the next coming sem, i have to most reluctantly to move out of there. didn't manage to get re-admission into hall due to lack of eca pts, sigh.


still remenber that time, hall 16 was spanking brand new. it was so not very attractive due to the $240 per month for a double room which aint cheap. but me yinkai decided to apply anw for we desired tt hall stay experience. and cool, we did get Hall 16 in the end. and our allocated unit was #03-04.

haha and we tried a 4D punt on 0304 but it came out 0404 first prize instead. omg! and since then, we have been 'blaming' the unit above us for hindering our golden luck. lol.

suddenly feel like im being rolled back the past. whenever i pass by hall 16 now, i will be reminded of my prev 2nd home. the usual walk back frm my school to hall, used to grumble on the slope up from north spine back to hall (lol) esp during scorching hot weather, den thro the gate (yeah, hall 16 is like a prison. everywhere is gates, only accessible by an electronic card), past the lift and back to my 03-04.

but some things made hall 16 special. the close distance to my school (i could wake up at 0820 and still make it to lab on time at 0830), the fresh new smell of the hall plus the convenience of staying out late and return back to hall anytime. Numerous mahjong sessions on my bed and the start of my increasing dislike for Jurong Point. Continuation of my running habits at ntu during night time, wearing of any lock cock clothings to classes without bothering how i look.

and 2 things stood out the most for me during my stay there...

1) the development of something special for geri.. i got to know her more and grown to like her more. lots of memories, like the rooftop, nightly walks/runs, distance to her was jz 300m away =) its been a long endurance race, even if i had to suffer heartbreak in the middle of the race, i didnt mind.



2) the strengthening of frenzship bond with yinkai. those laughter, those jokes, and those horsing ard whilst doing daily activities.

i've heard people complaining bout their roomie, but i've nothing but praise and gratefulness for him. he's such a neat guy la, doesn't throw things about, or jz simply mess the room up and most importantly, doesn't mind my frens staying over.

brought my tv/xbox to hall to entertain us when we r bored. it was kinda funny trying to adjust the external antenna frm the window always! to get the most perfect reception. see how we have to position the antenna in such an awkward manner. and our usual mee goreng for supper.

heh, laundry time. most of the time, i'm pretty lazy to go and wash. so i will jz conveniently dump my dirty clothes into the blue thingy (wads it called anw), dirty clothes holder? haha. anw yinkai is ever so kind to help wash our clothes by making a trip down to the washing machine point and hang out to dry thereafter!


heh, those cleaning stuff needed for maintenance of the room and yup, i got 2 other chairs into the room to accomodate my friends. places to go in hall include the pantry and the comfy tv lounge where we spent our nights usually to watch good frequency TV. oh yeah, took a photo with the cleaning auntie of our block also. she's so damn nice la, never fail to greet me at anytime of the day.

so after one semester of stay, its finally time to leave. had quite a tedious time packing up my barang barang and stuffing them into cab b4 dumping back into my house. look at the difference between the fully filled room and the vacant one when we first arrived into the room. cya hall 16, block 16A, unit 03-04.
