Steps To Getting Brain Damage (edited)...

For the past few days, things have been pretty crazy for me. For one, I had 3 papers in 2 days (again). Yes that was hell to go through and it mentally drained me but that's the boring stuff, what occurred on either side of it (brain damaged me can't think of a better word for the opposite of in between) was the fun part :D.

On Saturday, my house-mate Aaron came back to KL after spending several months back home. And accompanying him on the way back is 2 bottles of tuak! For those sober and dull people out there (yes offence), tuak is made from fermented rice and has a golden colour to it. Oh its sweet as well therefore its kind of the silent killer type of drink... So a couple of us gathered and had some shots of tuak before one of them suggested we go to The Library for happy hour... I only said, 'thats exactly whats on my mind!'


Enjoyin some Hoes...

So off we headed to the Library, which in a way is what I actually should be doing :P. And to add the icing on the cake, I finally had pure absinthe! It actually tasted pretty good although the after effects was like having 4 shots of tequila in one... But I felt kinda cheated cos I ordered two different types of absinthe, wanting the green colour one and instead both came out white. FYI, only 2 types of absinthe are legally sold here, white one has bout 50+% alcohol while the green one has 60+% content. So pussies like yong and donn, next time try la.. 1 glass wont die wan la.. wont even feel it... trust me guys :D...

Then later on, Gwen and her friend (sorry if wrong ah) dropped by so a round of stouts was bought. I only had half a pint though, which was good enough for me, not a big fan of the black stuff, prefer my alcohol clear, gold, white or green! All this was happening while the Manchester derby was playing in the background and because we had to bounce to crash a BBQ, I missed the typical 92nd minute goal from United... HAIZ... There, I had 1 cup of self mixed ribena + 42below vodka =D.... So total drink count for that day: 3-4 shots of tuak (I can't really remember), 2 pints of Hoegaarden, 2 glasses of Absinthe, 1/2 pint of Connor's Stout and 1 glass of 42below... Brain damage? For sure!!


Elixir of Deth...

As for yesterday, we'd already planned to drink but because of some complications, there wasn't enough alcohol... This is one of those times that makes me believe in miracles cos right in front of my condo, like 1 min walk in front, was the grand opening of a pool centre. So there was free food, free pool and free beer! Seeing as we already had dinner, we basically maxed out the other 2. Around 7-8 of us had at least 20 buckets of beer (1 bucket = 5 small bottles)!! The amateur beer drinker in me only had 6 bottles before I felt too full, not drunk, to consume anymore...


Beer was just the light infantry...

After that, some of them decided to go to my place and tried to finish the remaining tuak with another liquor from hell - langkau... Another fermented rice drink that looks like water but according to the brewer, its about 90+% alcohol ... -.-'.... I actually was watching the 1st half of the Champions League so I didn't had that much to drink. But when I reached home, I saw 1 by 1 nearly out! Personal deth avoided!


Compared to the clear WMA on the right...

I can seriously feel the lack of brain cells in my head already right now. But on the bright side, my next paper is on Saturday, so I'll have a decent amount of time to recover... hopefully...
