Blondie and the Olive Oil

Blondie Night
Didn't I say I was gonna be blonde for TGIO?
I was initially excited to be only one wearing a blonde wig... coz I thought I would be getting the kewl Roxette/Bon Jovi hair-do, until Zhonghan smirkingly tossed me this mother-of-all lion mane... Oh f**k...

2 days later, past the screams of horror & screeches of laughter from neighbors & Lynn's regular boys, I dejectedly accepted lovely role of the (assetless) Dolly Parton of the "Smelly Pink Panties" band (I still dunno how the heck they came up with that, eurgh)... since I was the only gal in the Mat Rock band... dammit... oh well, at least I had my revenge of sludging red paint across their faces haha... (great idea of Dad's... the beauty of having a hip arty dad, heh... u rock! And noooo it's not Ninja turtles k???)... and we got the crowd roaring to an 80's female medley... and of course, me fav "I'll be there for yooouuuu" :o)

Hold your breath and... EEeeeEEeeEEEkkk!!


The Smelly Pink Panties... purrrrr



Sigh, how traumatic... my first & last year performing as a blondie, which I desperately hope I wouldn't be remembered by when I graduate... not to mention the absolute entertainment I provided to my virgin groupie classmates & SMSU mates... sigh...

Oh well, at least the Rockers had their own share of wearing gigantic afro wigs, nerdy glasses or ah beng hair-dos, heh...
(For more pics, see cJaY's, aH boO's or aH liM's...)

One big mental family...



Best of all, the event itself was hosted by our very own, melodious.... OrangeMan!!

*Drumrolls*...

"B-I-N-G-O and bingo was his name ohhhh~~~"



And since I had the bird's nest stuck on my head for the rest of the night, I decided to make my 20 bucks worthwhile tasting the experience of a blonde air-head with my fav band men...

Dolly Parton & her toyboys:
Jimi hendrix & Bon jovi...
Ceena geek & Kirk hammett...


and Ah beng...
Aarrgghh... attacked by Ceena geek!


Final year performing TGIO... melancholic yet traumatised, what a mix of emotions, haha... It has been good anyway... esp. post pizza/booze supper... heh... Gonna miss this lots soon :o(

Finally lost the wig, ahhh... more bailey's... (CJ snickers: "Hee hee hee~~")



Olive Oil Virgin Experience
Yess I finally attempted cooking sth substantial for the masses! Ok, so it was Ah Lim's infamous olive oil pasta recipe, but at least I touched the ladle... and it was the first to be finished... hee
Now just gimme another 5 years or so, I would have come up with another recipe by then, ahem...

Tada... finally sth other than mudpies and apple swans...


Rockers supper at Keith's was the usual agenda...

Outdoor bingeing...


Followed by indoor boozing & movie viewing...
As usual, the girls snagged the baileys n started dunking choc ice cream into it (and yup Pam was the first to go, heh)...
And I swear I didn't get too high this time, really!


Alternative options were pool...


And mahjong...
Note the aftermath of the binging session in the foreground...
Attempted 2 games out of hours of 'observations'...apparently I didn't inherit Mum's mahjong kaki blood, still cluelessly lost...
Think I'll just stick to learning how to cook, haha...


All-in-all, it was still fun, and we enjoyed the air-con, heh...
And I swear the kois have grown much bigger...
Alrite, shall blog about the Bday & Wingyee's farewell party next...

Nooo Life~~~

Year 4 life? What life?
Aiyooo... who da devil said final year's the slackest year? Am taking like 5 mods & and fyp this sem... so my free days on mon & wed r taken up with socializing with rat brain smoothies in biopolis.... and the rest of the week peppered with weekly case studies, tests, and a ridiculous overload of project discussion for each module....haih, even skipped my 4-6 lecture (out of my 2-8pm marathon) to catch an extremely short nap....barely have time to sleep nor clean my room.... which is turning into a pigsty, far from my normally neat state....but i still love my green egg lamp lugged from home's IKEA (ok, out-of-point, haha).....sigghhh nooo liffeeeee


Salsa
Salsa classes have been upped to twice a week, not tt I'm complaning, since it's an attempt to prove to myself tt I still sorta have some form of social life, haha.... Nope dun think my improvement is proportional to the frequency of classes, since I still seem to be clueless with the leads, heh... At least in Salsa 3, the guys are less err, desperate and genuinely passionate about dance (i.e. most probably gay), so it's way more fun to learn now :D


Hilton weekend
Anyway my 2 ex-classmates from M'sia were here for the past 2 weekends for their work attachment... So took the opportunity to gather the SMSUians for a few meals, gossips & lotsa-lotsa shopping together... then of course had the liberty to check out the Hilton's duvet and air-con facilities.... so cheapo, but oh well, was never shy, muahaha... next destination to crash: EH's condo? haha


Momo
Also finally visited Momo to see ah lim n keith play last weekend with 2 funky babes ah boo & (alicia keys) shi li and yes our dear chaffeur hanrong (who also got stuck in the line for 30 mins waiting for us to bring him in, oops)... ha see keith, said i'll drag down a few more supporters liao :P ... Anyway haven't had so much fun grooving ard for some time already... and aiyo, this alcoholic boo made us down 3 jugs lor... at least i was still walking straight, didn't blurt out embarrassing stuff, nor get violent (ahem)... just went err, prancing around like a maniac...

Halfway during the performance, Mr. Shane had a group of hot blondes screaming his name... hmm, this couldn't do... so we gals did the mock fan club screams for Ah Leem & Keith too, altho someone was too busy banging the drums away to notice, haha... oh well, another good deed done :P

The mock tai tai portrait (with new recruit Shili Keys!)...




Reverie...



Keith, Ah Leem & the Momo groupies...


More details & pics on Ah Boo's & Ah Leem's website... Checked out Reverie's fav blues/jazz haunt nearby as well... Totally awed even tho we heard only 1 song, not even sung by the regular band... gonna terrorise tt place soon... the next rockers outing maybe? :o)


Okay... back to aca & TGIO practice... can't believe I'm gonna wear tt huge blonde 80's hair... thanks to zhonghan...sigh, hope i wun make a fool of myself :S
