where do we go from here?

I am WET. Although I came home about an hour ago. Soaked in the rain, drenched in the storm, dripping wet from the monsoon. because I was stupid enough not to bring an umbrella with me and because dan's umbrella was of no use whatsoever. I am wearing a white tshirt. And, it's so wet it's almost TRANSPARENT. Congratulations, m'dear, for wearing a bright pink bra under my WHITE shirt to er, match my shorts. Now everyone can see very clearly through my shirt. cc is the brightest girl on earth.

Went to school first in the morning to hand in my confirmation slip and meet dan to get to orchard for my guitar strings. But me dan and bek were unable to escape the vp's evil clutches and were enslaved. We were made to.. *drumroll*

... edit typo errors on openhouse brochures. So we just sat on the bench outside the general office looking like losers correcting spelling errors while passersby threw us less than sympathetic glances. The world is cruel. Wox came by but nope, no help offered whatsoever. Foofoo came by as well and watched us and said what we were doing was "ci di wu yin san bai liang", and we had this puny glimmer of hope that he would help us but NOPE, none at all. OHWELL. But as we are efficient workers we finished 500 brochures in about er, half an hour.

Headed for orchard with dan, ate yoshi as usual, and had a hard time looking for this music centre. Bought the guitar strings. Spent ages in kinokuniya reading about the davinci code and its facts and fiction. And flipping through the illustrated version of the davinci code? And omg it's bloody cool. But the cilice is so super freaky it's not even a BELT it's just pure METAL and WIRE. Very sick. I want angels and demons ): Shall extort money from mum and buy it, I don't care.

Then spent ages in HMV looking at almost every single rock album sold there or something. DAN FOUND SUGARCULT THERE OHMYGOD! Palm trees and power lines! :O:O:O Got out of the heeren. It was raining, cold, dark, wet. Bloody heavy. Only dan had an umbrella. Thought it would do okay as shelter but I was oh-so-wrong because it didn't cover me at all. When we crossed the road I chose to run in the rain instead cos there was NO DIFFERENCE whether I was under the umbrella or not. Ran to mandarin hotel, sprinted across the entrance doors cos the air-con was brrrrrrrr, then to taka.

The guy outside was helping people put their wet umbrellas into the plastic thingys. We um, accepted his offer. He took the brolly, slipped it in, shook it so it went to the bottom. But OHOH it fell out through the other end. So while dan and I laughed our ass off he took another one and apologised for "making us angry" but we obviously weren't. Hello, we were LAUGHING. He shook the thing so it went to the bottom again but it FELL OUT AGAIN. More hysterical laughter. Succeeded on third try though. xD Almost turned into ice sculptures in taka cos we were soaked to the skin. Literally. Home sweet home.

I am so long-winded.
