Reached Tanjong Pagar MRT station at 8.30am, little to know that we were actually meeting at 9am. All that someone/whoever's fault.
Anyway hung around and finally all came and we went on a five-minute walk to the Amara hotel. Got some leftover sushi FROM Edo Sushi to tide over the hunger pangs...
And we went up to the third floor, where Christine, the event planner, told us that they only need 10 dressers(10 models) and asked five of us to be ushers. Well of course everybody came here for the dresser job, but i think there's not really that much of a BIG deal. I'm gonna get beaten up for saying this, but whatever. Some human behaviours disturb me terribly. The thought makes me shiver. BLAH.
So Pearlyn, Clarion and two other girls came out for the usher job. We tied ribbons for the door gifts - paper bags filled with rubbish. Then we slacked around and went looking for the dressers. Pearlyn and I found our love of pledge in the form of two feathers from a red feather boa.
After a very long time there was a full rehearsal. Well i brought in chips into the backstage to show off HA! The models are like NOOBIES. HAHA they weren't used to taking off their clothes at backstage. They took goodness how long to change... We went to the audience to watch the rehearsal. TSK and there's the occasional horny glance since we were the only audience there besides from the photographers and maybe two aunties. WE WERE SO PRIVILEGED to be there. I must say it is a blessing in disguise, cause Pearlyn and I had so much fun.
In between rehearsals and the real show, we:-
1. Drank coffee and cappuccino while the dressers were slogging out and acted out a short skit like we were business partners. (Well, actually Pearlyn had a one-man-show.)
2. Got to know a ADM alumni.
3. Got a new friend the magician(my hia di).
Well, actually he was showing tricks to a uncle who was dressed up as a clown(balloon man) and we joined in. I asked him for the Number 8 club ball he conjured but he says he can't take it BOO!
4. Got balloon bracelets from the balloon uncle.
5. More chips.
6. Got a necklace(from the alumni).
After the show we went for the refreshments. Waited so god damn long for it can. All charged to the chocolate fondue and cake. HAHA. Then we took drinks from the bar and acted like rich people who go to Japan everyday for work purposes.
After everything we left for the Red Dot Museum. Walked around the flea market(i only got a knitted cockroach brooch at $2). Then went off.
The three of us headed for Clarke Quay. Eve got her flats, finally. Then off to Orchard. At Wisma, we went to Cotton On. While waiting(the crowd is insane!) I went to get Yan Yan from Watsons. I sat in a small corner opposite Cotton On. There was a shop under renovation and it was all boarded up, and there was a small mirror panel between the boards and another jewellery shop, so i sat there. Then a female security guard came and chased me away, asking me not to sit there and that "there is a sitting area on Level One". Stupid woman i was waiting for my friends lah! Anyway i went to look at fish and went into other shops before coming back. I think we spent(i mean, THEY) an hour or so there. Sigh, WOMEN! And i got chocolate all over my white shirt.
I can't bloody comprehend how people can tolerate SQUEEZY crowds like this just to get some shopping done. I'd rather rot at home.
Off to Body Shop, where Pearlyn got her first makeup - blusher and foundation. HAHA i only agreed to go cause i wanna see what she was gonna buy. Then off to Mango(i was sitting all around the place that i may be mistaken for a busker), where Evelyn took forever to say goodbye to her colleagues. And that woman spends like there is no tomorrow/it is the End of the World, man. LOL.
The whole day Pearlyn and I were singing and acting. Sigh. Talented people.
And i reached home at 7.45pm.
Goodness feet pain.
Alrighty. My feet are gonna break.
Hmm anyway. I actually wanted to walk to school from the overhead bridge stop. HA when i got off 27 i think the person sat beside me was very shocked, cause i stop up very abruptly. I didn't notice that i had reached my stop can.
"Siao ah?" Yes. (Uh huh repeated but LIKE WHATEVER~)
Reasons for the preference of walking over taking the bus
1. screw the crowd
2. my bag is an obstruction
3. it is hard to get off the bus
Disclaimer: All the above applies to peak hours only. Like HECK HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
BUT.
I didn't walk to school today.
INSTEAD.
I took the TP shuttle bus for the first time this morning. When i went up the bus it was like Cantonese songs played in the bus. Uncle driving what you expect?
Blahblahblah. The headrest was a wee bit hard and uncomfortable but I AM NOT COMPLAINING!
Reached school and i contemplated a walk even when i only had 15 minutes to class. HAHA i took up the challenge and walked along the canal. Super shiok. This man came cycling here when i was making my way back to school. His maltese started growling and barking at me. NANNYNANNYPOOPOO.
WELL i thought i looked pretty suicidal walking along the canal cause i was wearing neither sports attire nor sports attire. L.O.L.
Italian CLASS. DARN quiz on Monday.
Oh and yes the much revered pinned-up cockroach is gone. I wish it good luck.
Blahblahblah. ComDI stretched to three today. Towards the last bit i was already stoning and falling alseep and kept rocking myself forwards and backwards to stop myself from dozing off. To further illustrate that, look at my illustration:
Alrighty. I set off for City Hall. See, i figured i needed some "me" time. HA. And so starts my Self-Discovery Tour. The Second.
Well actually today's mission was to get some CDs.
I came out of the station to Raffles City. LOST. I anyhow walked out from some exit and saw Suntec City just in the distance. Passed by the memorial park, saw Esplanade, blah. And waited at the traffic lights for bloody long time. There was a Caucasian on the opposite side and we were like two stupid people standing there stupidly waiting for the stupid lights while the rest of the stupid people jaywalked.
LALALA. I went in search for my stuff when i didn't even know what the heck i was looking for. I mean the shop. Walked around in circles for quite some time. HELLO it has been a long time since i last went there okay. Now i can add one more place to my area of expertise. Celebrate, people! I don't know how many times i went to the directory, and for the last time i stayed there like five minutes... And i passed by the information counter and snatched over one map of Singapore. HAHAHAHA i just love doing that. Makes me ticklish. Then i walked further away and shook out the whole big map a la Christopher Columbus. HAHAHAHAHA one girl got a shock. I am always shocking people and i kinda enjoy it. HOHOHO.
Anyway i also went to this part of the mall which they call "MY PLAYGROUND". Initially i thought i had walked into Dhoby XChange. It's like exactly the same, complete with vacant shops. LOL it's gonna die out soon.
For a while i came out from Tower 3 from the back and came to the lobby and i felt like a criminal with the marble floor and ceilings around me. TA-DAH! And there was a guard there. I quickly made my way out and jaywalked to Tower 2. And went inside and walked all over again.
I made a decision to visit the Fountain of Wealth, and almost jaywalked across the turnaround when i found the escalator down. WOAH the last time i've been here was long long long long long long time ago. And dammit the fountain is closed from 26 October to 11 November for some maintenance works. BOO!
I think i walked to around till 5plus before i OFFICIALLY exited Suntec City. Well well not a very grand exit i must say. I came out from the back, where the bulk of Carrefour is, and came to a dead end. They were building some train station for the Circle Line i guess and all who were there were construction workers. What an affinity. In the end i walked till the end until i could almost continue to walk to Nicoll Highway and go to Marina Promenade. LOL. Anyway, in order not to lose face, i crossed to the opposite Millenia Walk. Cross first, think later. I walked into the fountain place with all the water streaming down the walls. Oddly out of place with all the businessmen/women. Brought back all the memories. Aww...
Somehow i got out again, up the escalator on the right side of the entrance of Millenia Walk, and crossed the bridge to Marina Square. BIG EMPTY SPACES i love them. I felt like running to each and every corner of the balcony-like place but that would be insane. Memories. Toys R' Us at Marina Square was a place we frequented a lot when we were kids. Anyhow, i walked, back to Suntec, and to the City Hall MRT. Well actually CityLink should have led me to Suntec in the first place, but i thought it went to Esplanade. BUMMER. Nevermind. I love to seek trouble. My philosophy is that there is always a way out. So i went to this place which i had never explored on foot before. AH NEVER MIND! I'm a walking map. And thank goodness i didn't wear Converse. HA!
And i was actually heading to Somerset for the HMV when i remembered there was one at CityLink. Just to try my luck, i went in. Under the metal section, found Avenged SevenFold, which i had heard before of them BUT not their songs. BUT no Anberlin. Continued searching under Pop/Rock, no Taylor Swift but i bloody found Anberlin! I actually couldn't believe it like WOW. I was so happy that i almost jumped in joy. Could been happier. HAHA.
I paid and asked the staff if there were any Taylor Swift's discs in their outlets, and he said there was only one album at the Orchard branch, and it is her self-titled album. And that's not i want, so i headed home.
And along the way i saw six window display-like boxes in which real people are in. Some camera ad i think. Pretty cool.
And i reached home right at 7pm.
My brother is having a mahjong session tomorrow with his friends.
WOO tomorrow is dresser day. FREAKY!
Arrivedieci.
Hi there.
Okay, as usual, the stupid bus and all. BUT instead of switching to 15 at the overhead bridge bus stop, i walked to school. I am so sick of the stupid crowd in the stupid bus. HA! Well i figured i won't be late cause it was like only 8.30am and it should take not more than 15 mins to reach school, considering that i am a fast walker.
You say,"SIAO AH?". Yeah i am a bit loony sometimes.
Italian is crazy but it's not a problem for me. Ah and Natalie, my classmate, told me she recognised me from my bag and saw me walking to school. I love my bag. It is a good substitute for a nice warm pillow.
I am starting to like ComDI cause i like subjects which induce me to think. Yeah. He showed us ads and all. Pretty cool. And i discovered that i have a hidden fetish: CARS. I didn't know, seriously. I only knew that i like Alfa Spider.
HAHA short. Sweet. Nice.
Goodness it's November already.
