i guess why some are reluctant to join outings is because they
are scare.. with articles and newspaper reporting going ard, saying
how guys cons ger to meet up over the net and end up having a
mischap,like gena raped etc etc
my first outing was a KTV session, organised by Da jie and the
rest, but it was kindda of initiated by me as i post a thread on
"how to sing" 
hesitated for quite some time before i decided to go for the
outing.. because i scare i paiseh.. and scare cannot blend it..
scare i offend ppl......
but subsequently, i read the thank you thread that was posted for
each outing and find it very fun, so i gathered going out with them
shldn't be very bored....
i must say i enjoyed myself very much, not as i think it would turn
out to be.. ppl there treat newbies like oldbies, but must agree
that sometimes u will scratch head to understand what they are
saying, but that's inevitable, but definitely not a sign of
outcasting newbies i think...
subsequent outings include, chervrons, sentosa, movies..... etc
etc......
