Life - Reposicion 2007

Thursday, December 27, 2007


it means revival in spanish. the programmes booklet for that night said so.

for those blur sotongs, Reposicion 2007 is the seniors prom for Commonwealth's class of 2007. it just happened like last sunday the 23rd at shangri-la rasa sentosa resort.

I planned pictures for this post, but then none of the photos are blogworthy since I am sure you wont want to know and see all the photos with me and my friend(s) in it anyway.

so I shall just describe the entire situation that day in words. I have a whole truckload of the not-so-recent 2/3 chalet photos to do a photoblog as well. but that is for another day when I am done procrastinating again.

the below is a monologue with myself throughout the entire day. timestamps are attached for your convenience.

==

PRE-PROM (warning: boring like crap. good for kaypohs.)

9am: what a beautiful day! the birds are chriping bountifully to their own jovial... yadda yadda...

fast forwarded the rest in case later got some guy come to my brain and steal this to write as the opening to their compo sia! wahlao I as bhb as zp liao. cannot.

9:17am: ying sheng replied to say he confirmed with anba to take bus with nicky. cannot go with us. oh well.

10am (breakfast): a few hours later I will be having a meal many times better than this sia! cant wait to see the girls in their resplendent finery! wait. why did I tell you all that?

10.23am: emolei sms me to tell me jinyu might wanna come with us. but she wants to meet at 5pm. I ask whether 4.30pm can or not.

12.17pm: chun kit sms me whether he can join emolei and I. why I become like tour guide liddat? ask him go bug jinyu to check time.

2:40pm: meeting time and place finally confirmed man. after like asking the exact same question for 12 hours.

2:45pm - 3:45pm: kns I simply no talent with design la. now have some guailan hairdo after one hour with that spanking new can of purple-coloured Gatsby© Moving Rubber©. to think I went three places to find it -.-"

that stylist at shirley mah created a proper style in seconds while demonstrating to me wor. so easily some more. should have just cut my hair today. zz.

4.30pm: met emolei at boon lay. jinyu too shy and met up with dayana at JE directly. wait, why got another person?!? aiyah whatever.

~5pm: just when I am done joking about jinyu's "light and easy" approach to dressing up for prom night, chun kit came even more casually in short-sleeved polo shirt and sports shoes. he looked more surprised than us when he see us in long-sleeved shirt and blazer. too late.

5+pm: walking around in vivo at the sky park doing nothing in particular. sky was kinda overcast. didnt walk long before we looked for sentosa express since station is at vivo 3rd level and because its boring.

5++pm: we paid 3 dollars to take sentosa express, inclusive of admission fee. basically wasted that darn letter and my printer ink. and the trip was like less than 15 minutes. should have just taken the bus or walked in right? zzzzzzzzz.

5+++pm: what the fish is wrong with this blue line bus thing? it is already bad enough to have a non-airconditioned bus stop, the bus is taking eons to arrive also!

5++++pm: dammit the bus is no better. I think even ayam brand sardines get more space in that tin than us in this darned bus.

5+++++pm: I want to kill the person responsible for the siting of rasa sentosa resort. why the heck is it on top of such a ludicrously steep hill? do they want me to be as drenched (in sweat) as a cow before prom even begins? irritants everywhere.

~5:45pm: met plenty of ppl at resort entrance. some people seriously looked different. registered as well. didnt stay for long before settling down at my table whose number I forgot (21?) before I suffer a nosebleed.

PROM

till ~7pm: the pre-prom entertainment by asnida and whatever was really kinda sad. it is just as interesting as that "commonwealth video" ever did. which isnt really interesting. think you get the idea. oh, faizal performed a song. good, wonderful. now end this quickly.

7:10pm: emcee is vijay. believe me when I tell you I am so not surprised.

7:20pm: they are interviewing random people on why they wore what they did and how much it cost. my only thought was to not pick me actually so I am not paying attention.
