night out at alexs house.
agenda: cheries party
report: fun and saucy
HAHA!

for those of you who didnt know what happened to us-band members, before the party
heres your big chance to find out!
ok. here goes.
just as we were walking to the bus stop, junliang messaged vanessa telling us to buy 5 bottles of 1.5litres of drinks back.
"has our class been turned into camels?!", i wanted to scream.
5 bottles!
so fine, we went to shell petrol station which was conveniently a stones throw away (a LONG stones throw away) to buy drinks for the camels.
at the petrol station...
jac: "eh, what drinks they want? scully wait buy pepsi, they want coke."
jas: "ooooh look! ice cream 3 for $2!! so cheap!"
vann: "lets call back."
she then tried to call junliang back.
no answer.
then she called fionn.
no answer.
and she called alex.
no answer.
kimberly?
nope.
supanee?
nope.
evonne?
nope.
jennifer?
nope.
cherie?
nope.
wei rong?
we dont have his number.
i think we dialed about a thousand numbers until finally the ever patient vanessa gave up and shrieked "heck la! lets just buy our ice cream and get out!"
so fine, jas treated us to ice cream and we nibbled it while waiting for the bus to come.
ok whatever.
fast forward to the party.

when i stepped into alex's house....
"OMG JACLYN! I LOVE YOUR HAIR!"
(i tied it up...what?! it was hot that day!)
no idea how loud it was?
imagine standing under the boeing as it takes off.
now, imagine the engines saying "omg jaclyn i love your hair"
yeah, thats about roughly the decibel range.
and it came from alex.
and amirul pinched my cheeks so hard until they were numb.
oh goody.
haha.
thanks for getting the facial oil out for me, amirul.
we ate..and ate.
and kimberly clucked about stuffing food and drinks down our throats.
kimberly, while serving us chicken wings, : "eh, the barbequed chicken wings right, those that are still raw is not i do one, those that are cooked is i do one."
HAHAHA! good one kim!
more of my hairs effects on my classmates...
wei rong had to strain his already puny brain to remember who i was.
wei haos exclaimation of "omg! wait i tell XIAO WEI!"
junliang nearly jumping out of his skin when he saw me.
evonnes gigantic thumbs up.
zairils "short girl got nice hair."
(how dare he call me short? @!#@$^^%$#!! [random noises])

basically, we had lots of fun.
omg!
*smacks forehead*
how could i forget about this episode?!
the one when i bought cheries present?!
okokokok.
my humble apologies.
lets rewind to before band.
before band, vanessa, junying and i decided to go to parkway parade to buy cheries present.
77th street.
there, we were served by an over-enthusiastic sales girl.
she was soooooooooo...bouncy.
seriously!
the whole scenario was like...
unsuspecting customers-namely US, wanders into shop and glances at wide array of neckalces and bracelets.
unsuspecting prey doesnt suspect a thing...until...
salesgirl: "HI!! whatcanidoforyou?! ulookingfornecklace?!" *bounce bounce bounce*
one more thing about her. she speaks quickly and animatedly with flying hand gestures everywhere.
jac: "er yeah. its a birthday gift."
sales girl: "oooooh! birthdaygift! boyorgirl? thepersonlikenecklace? orhowaboutanicebracelet?!" *bounce bounce bounce*
sales girl then proceeds to pull out a case of gaudy bead necklaces which look suspiciously like scarfs.
jac: "are they scarfs?"
sales girl: "hahahaha! no! theyarenecklaces! nicerightniceright?!"
jac: "er...haha.yeah."
actually...God forgive me...i lied.
the necklaces (or cleverly disguised scarfs) were NOT nice at all! actually, they were hideous!!
well, hang on, ok, they are nice....if you are some sort of a getai singing mahjong clucking hokkien spewing aunty with a blue rinse hairdo.
too bad, i couldnt take a picture of the necklaces (or cleverly disguised scarfs) to show you guys.
sales girl: "theyarethefashionnowadaysyouknow."
jac: "oh....er...wow. haha" *looks at vanessa*
vanessa grins.
-_-
fashion.
riiiiightt...gotcha.
in the world of getai singing mahjong clucking hokkien spewing aunties with blue rinse hairdos.
jac: "huh...how you wear? like this?" *puts necklace on*
sales girl: "hahahah! nonononono! islikethiswearone! yousupposedtoloopittwice!"
sales girl demonstrates with the necklace and tries to loop it twice around her neck.
jac: "hahahaha! too short! too short!"

in the end, i left the shop with a silver necklace strung with a pink dragonfly diamonte pendant and one cherry hairclip, snug in a pink giftbox
(geddit? CHERIE...CHERRY? whoa...lame. okok.)
and alot of laughs.
i'm going back there again...
not because that shops sales tactic worked, but because i've set my sights on a super cool silver fire pendant hung on a black leather...thingy.
think its called a strap. not sure.
but heck, its cool.
saving up my miserable money "sou by sou"...
