It is, however, irrelevant in the grand scheme of things.
We went back home today, to study. I must say, the new sports complex in VS is really a godsend. You new Victorians are very, very lucky. Before, various CCAs had to compete for sporting venues, leaving guys who just wanted to play ball stranded, especially during the times where the field was getting its synthetic makeover.
Yes, VS is something more. We get the good shit. Of all the secondary schools out there, we have the best facilities, because we deserve every single cent spent on 'em.
It was quiet and relatively cooling. I got a good amount of work done but it could be better. Overall not too shabby.
The real fun part about today, which I wouldn't give up for anything, was dinner at Werner's Oven at Siglap.
Oktoberfest just ended, but they still had the Oktoberfest menu, so hell we went for the 'Oktoberfest for 4'. There were 6 of us.
Okay so we did top it up with 1 main course and 2 more beers, but either way, it was extremely filling. I couldn't think of a single bad dish. Seriously. Maybe the french fries. Yeah that's the worst of all the food, but only because, well, it's ordinary and your french fries come from the goddamn frozen pack anyway.
Those trashy chicken sausages that come in packs.. well I wouldn't even call them sausages. Seriously. You haven't had sausages till you've had the ones here. They're huge, juicy and don't have that boring, salty, non-descript taste of the typical frozen frankfurters.
Pork knuckles were crazy good. You could feel the fats melting in your mouth - I shit you not. Overall an epic gastronomical experience.
Sure the bill worked out to be about $36 per person, but for the company, food and experience, it was more than worth it.

Beer is good. You can never go wrong with beer.

Pretzels. Nothing extraordinary. Tim told us that we're supposed to dip the pretzels into the beer. The collective of us did just that and wasted no time looking like idiots.

Meal for four? Really?
From Ian@rantbox |
Yeah we finished it. See that satisfied smile on Melvin's face? You can figure who paid disproportionately less.

Andrew, the plate is EMPTY. STOP PICKING AT THE GODDAMNED BONES.

Easily the picture of the day. Prost!
That's a day well spent brothers. Wouldn't give it up for anything.
