PLaytime!Exams are officially over, and it's time to have fun.
So I and Xinyi decided to go to Tampines Mall to take neoprints and whatever.
Let's skip straight to the taking of neoprints.
Ok, on the way we purchased a 'mini melts' bubblegum flavour ice cream and proceeded to Century Square to take neoprints. I was then imformed that no food is allowed in. So i put in in my bag, thinking that because of the cover, it won't leak.
Then we paid S$10 to take.
My god, it was a nightmare.
1) I cant stand the damn music. Urgh.
2)The cutesy voices in Japenise saying God knows what. Probably giving intructions. But hello, I'm Singaporean and I only speak Chinese and English with the occasional overseas slang. HOw the BFH do they expect us to know what to do????
3)The background. It's PINK. With HEARTS. Can you say "eeww"?The decos? sOME WEREN'T SO BAD, BUT THEY WERE ALL SO...GIRLY.Now I know why the male population stays away from neoprints.
Well, The end result was nice but not enough to compensate the torture we went through.I was looking at the decorations and muttering"Thou shalt not puke. Thou shalt not puke."
Oh yeah I put bunny ears on Xinyi in one of the shots and for the next pic, she tried to take revenge. Note TRIED. I had the last laugh in the end.
Now, normal people would be attempting act-cute poses. I tried it out(to the amusement of Xinyi) and laughed like crazy when I saw the result. I looked damn stupid.
So we justr sat back and smiled at the camera.
Anyway I can't say I'll stay away from taking neoprints ever again. I'll make a mental note to bring earplugs though.
After we got the shots and walked out, traumatized(Yes it is my first time taking them but not for Xinyi so you'd better not laugh or I will hunt you down and murder you brutally)I reached into my bag and withdrew a sticky hand coated in melted ice-cream.
F*CK.
We all but ran to the toilet and cleaned up. I had to ask for a plastic bag from a nice auntie who was manning a stall nearby. I cleaned up my stuff. Fortunately I didn't bring much.
I, solemly sore that I will NEVER, EVER put anything that leaves a mess inside my bag again, even if it has a cap and whatnot, 'cause, chances are, the manufacturers didn't consider the chances of it spilling out.
This vow, however. was broken minutes later when I bought ice blended mocha at Coffee Bean and had to smuggle it up the bus.(Fine, it's against the law, but don't be such a stickler. Have YOU ever not brought in food before on the bus?)
Ha. I thought so. NO I am not talking to you kuai pple.
Thank God this one didn't spill. Xinyi was shaking her head and muttering, "You never learn, do you?"
...
Then after I teased her a little she said that her new quote would be 0000 is an imbecile. 0000 is pointing to me clearly. So, pissed off, I purposely played the song bao lian deng which I knew she hated.I had such great fun watching her pained expression.
I am such a sadist.
SBS Transit really should ban annoying advertisments. Like the stupid Spongebob Squarepants ad. It was so annoying, I radiated a dark aura(akin to the one Kyouya, from Ouran High School Host Club' radiates when he's woken up very early.) The tempreture dropped a few degrees(which was something to say, considering that it was a hot afternoon) as I struggled to resist temptaton. The Temptation being throwing my ice blended Mocha at it.
Xinyi brought me out of my icy reverie by whining about listening too a cantonese song. I obliged and the Subn was soon shiny and happy and whatever, and the tempreture turned back to normal.
I started to sing the bao lian deng song softly merely to annoy her and it worked. She calmly aked me,"Do you realise you are making a fool of yourself?"
I agreed.
"Glad you know" She said.
I smirked and then said,"Hmm, I know my singing sucks..I know!*coy tone*
Shall we listen to the REAL thing?She shivered in disgust and hurriedly declined. It was amusing to watch her facial expressons.
My smile soon faded as the stupid Spongebob Squarepants ad started up again.
Thank god we pulled up at our designated bus stop and alighted. I spread out my arm as if to hug the Sun and exclaimed,"Thnk God! Salvation! Alleluia!"
Xinyi muttered "Salvation to me as well."And hurried away as I suggested listening to the bao lian deng song again.
"Count me out!"
I walked away laughing internally.
The Sun was bright and shining and it was a good day. The birds were flying, sqwaking, whatever.
I leave you to paint your own happy ending.
