Prom 2013

the long awaited day has finally arrived. 18th November 2013. prom. the event that i've been looking forward to since many months ago. a really great day with great memories created.

soooo went to hotel to find yunxian & beeshi because they checked in a day earlier. first thing was to plonk on the bed together with my piglets (yes i brought them along, i'd have brought my bolster if there's space). then because me and mx were so tired from climbing the hill to the hotel we slacked a while before getting ready. it was tough getting ready for me at least. I WANNNAAAA SLEEP ;;. started off by painting nails, screwing them up, trying to salvage them but failed, and eventually gave up since no one will inspect my nails closely. then went to put contacts on. really bad planning because i'm a lil scared to touch my contacts with painted nails. THEN THIS FATEFUL THING HAPPENED.

i don't know why i'm so dumb, but i put my coloured contacts ONTO MY CLEAR CONTACTS. WTF???? i didn't realise it because it's perfectly normal! well the first time i tried these coloured contacts at home, the right side was a lil blurry and left side's normal. so on this day, as usual, my left side is PERFECTLY CLEAR and my right side still a lil blurry, so i assume all's well. then after a while i really cannot take it because the right side is too annoying to bear. on my way to the toilet.. I REALISED MY CLEAR CONTACTS WERE STILL ON MY EYES AND WTF I HAD THE BIGGEST TRAUMA OF MY LIFE. i quickly took them out (they came out, luckily) but sad thing was the two contacts stuck together. and i can't separate them (i ended up tearing the contacts, so i had to throw them away). so mx and me went to FEP with my blurry eyes cuz no contacts and bought contacts. LUCKILY I MANAGED TO BUY SOME CONTACTS.

then after that came back to hotel and mr sng's already there to help out with our makeup. PHOTOS TIMEEEE.



me before makeup! camwhored like mad. 笑



final product! i requested for super natural makeup because i really, really detest having thick makeup on my face. and also because jeanette is super natural too (c'mon, she doesn't even put foundation). basically my makeup consisted of concealer, foundation, eyebrows done, super light eyeshadow, thin eyeliner, super light blusher and lipgloss. unfortunately i was kinda forced to put foundation by mr sng which was quite uncomfortable because i couldn't touch my face during the whole event ;;. which is why i hate makeup so much. (i sense a makeup rant coming up). but anyway, overall it was tolerable since it's just a few hours & once in a blue moon.


our final photo before we leave the hotel and embark on our journey to concorde. 笑

reached there, immediately felt awkward because 3 of us (mx's wasn't as bad as us) kinda overdressed. AHAHAHA. and it was super hard to walk normally in heels because i sense eyes looking on me (self-consciousness strikes again) and i just wanted to go back to hotel at that point of time. but of course, it's impossible. i wanted to go to the ballroom asap to sit and blend into the crowd. after that's all fine.

before the event, camwhored and stuffs. my outfit for the night! 









event started with some mini games like bingo (which was totally a cheat) and stuffs. then dinner time!!!! unfortunately i only ate 2 dishes because i don't eat the rest of the food they served!!!!!! only ate rice and some spicy meat with gravy. THE GRAVY IS DAMN NICE OMG DAMN DAMN DAMN NICE. those that i skipped out on were, for example, fish, salmon, vegetables (ew ew ew), rojak and stuffs. so smart of them to serve almost all seafood and vegetables and rojak. ugh so annoying. so glad the soup, fruits and desserts made up for the lack of main dishes. then games started and luckily, there's no stupid things like going on stage to do weird things (that i've feared since i heard of prom stories from my senior). games were manageable for me. 

then it was nominating the prom kings and queens! 1 pair from each class each. then they competed with tongue twisters and mini skits (as i'd prefer to call them, ミニコント). and after the final prom king and queen were chosen, it was the end of the event. 









everybody were busy taking photos after that and i was just standing there awkwardly because i don't talk to many people in school. (i have more friends made online than in real life. i'm a social failure). and while beeshi, yx & mx took photos with guys, i didn't take a single one with any guy because once again, i'm a social failure and also because i've been brainwashed by those american children storybooks that say boys are disgusting that i read when i was young. (i was a freaking bookworm then what do you expect). i don't even have a guy friend that i talk to right now. well i used to have some made from audi but i just stopped talking to them. AND THAT'S MY LIFE. so yes i just stood there awkwardly while mx, yx & beeshi went off snapping pictures with class people and stuffs. 

and finally. camwhoring time ended 'cause they needed to pack up and leave the place. i was seriously so glad because no more awkwardness for me. i'm a real failure in my social life. (oh gosh it seems like i resemble mayuyu's personality. oh well she's an otaku and i'm a wota afterall. we're alike in a sense). then headed back to hotel and i was the first to remove makeup BECAUSE I HATE MAKEUP. ahh the feeling of having a bare face is so nice. then i was the first to change out of my dress while mx, yx & bs were using phone because i'm a pig that likes bare face and home clothes. then i accompanied my piglets on the bed, using my phone in my comfortable clothes while yx, mx & bs went to wash up one by one HAHAHAHAHA this is life man. 

thennnnn. the most looked forward to, yet dreaded time has come. sleeping time. i'm a person who is super sensitive to breathing/snoring sounds since young. i can sleep through thunderstorms, alarms but once i hear one snoring sound, i'm awake. so as you've guessed it, i didn't sleep much. only slept from 2-4 and 6:30-8:30. next day, ordered mac fr breakfast and yayyyyy big breakfast. and i was the first to pack my bag because i was really scared i left things there. and i cannot think well when rushed so yeah. and my ever reliable packing list saved me 笑. 

checked out and headed home.

AND THAT'S THE END OF MY ONE AND ONLY PROM. the event that i've been looking forward to has gone. and no more proms will be experienced in my life ever again cuz no jc. well that's it!
