Falling in Love to Saturday

Saturday (Nov 19):

One of my most anticipated days after O's. Before i went out, i groomed as best as i could, fixed my hair to the smallest detail, cementing my stray hairs. I was well shaved, smelt the smell of soap, and sprayed with davidoff coolwater.. Not noticing the time.. and then i realized that i was late..... again.. so i quickly dashed to City Hall mrt. Ashley waited for me in there for 30 mins cuz i was late for 30 mins! Damn i hate myself! I couldn't manage my time properly. When i saw her, she looked gorgeous! She even gave me a Christmas gift, and i feel like an asshole.. I was late, and i didnt have anything for her! Then we went to esplanade to find a cafe or a restaurant, but couldnt find any.. So we went further and reached the merlion statue and fullerton and still couldnt find any descent and affordable restaurant.. But since fullerton was just infront of us, we decided to check fullerton out, since i havent been there before, and i had planned to eat dessert there in the chocolate buffet. We asked around and found out that the place was fully booked! And so my planned failed and i didnt have any plan B or any back up plan.. Letting me feel more of an asshole! But thanks to Ashley, she knows lots of places on where to eat. She brought me to Holland Village, where there lies a stretch of road full of restaurants. I was mesmerized by the place, but even more mesmerized by the fact that Ashley knows so much! Holland Village is very far from the east and i kept on wondering how she knew all those places! We ate at Crystal Jade Kitchen and ordered Tim Sum. She was the one who took care of our orders cuz i didnt know what food was nice and the waitress was speaking in Chinese! While Ash and the waitress was talking, i could only understand 50% of what they were saying.. And that's how lousy my chinese is!
After that, we went to Orchard Road and planned to go to Hard Rock Cafe. But we changed our minds and went window shopping in Paragon, Takashimaya, etc. I thought Ash was going to meet her friends at around 9.30, so i contacted netty to go to clarke quay with me. But when Ash asked where I'd go after she leaves, i told her about me and netty, and to my surprise, Ash wanted to go either! I was so happy that our night didnt end as early as 9.30.
We met netty, samantha and Shu lin in clarke quay, and we decided to go to Attica, just to see what its like inside.. But as soon as we walked towards the door, the macho and tall bouncer confronted us and asked my age. He said while his hands on his waste: "How old are you?". Then I said that i was 18, and he said with a very masculine voice: "You need to be 25 to be able to go in here." They were very strict, and i think it'll be impossible for me to get in even without the girls and even with a beard! So i just said ok, and turned back, a bit of embarrassed.. So we decided to go to Boat quay instead cuz the pubs there are desperate to have customers cuz every pub goers go to clarke quay. We went to this Tikki bar and ordered our drinks. I thought everything's gonna be fine, but the guy there asked for our I.C.. I was worried that the same thing will happen, so i tried to look into the guys eyes, to make a gesture to give us a chance, and since the manager was behind him, i could just tell him to give us a chance. He looked at our I.C.s giving this impression that he was deciding whether to tell the manager or not.. In the end, he let us in. But when the girls went in, he whispered to me: "Err.. actually, 3 of ur friends are below 18". then i whispered while tapping his shoulders: "Can lah, we'll be here for a short time only. We'll leave soon." Then he beckond that everything's ok and it was cool. So i thank him like he was my friend.
So we got in.. I ordered a pine of tiger beer (since there was no other beers available for pines) and the girls ordered cocktails.. The music was loud.. The same amplitude that i was hoping for our class' prom. People were smoking and the place was very small.. But the worse part was that the music sucked! They were playing this old style techno.. the ones like para para sakura and stuffs.. Some Ah Lian girls were dancing like shit! They were very disgusting especially the part when the song says something like "...my shining star..." Then at the same time, those girls would look up and pretend that there was stars above them, shinning brightly! I enjoyed watching them, not because they look good or hot, but because it was so hilarious! Samantha was also hilarious because as the drinks were served, sam tasted it and then broke into a disgusted expression! She quickly brought out her water bottle and drank water to take the taste out! After that, sam couldnt stand the smoke and the music so Ash accompanied her to go out and take a walk. Shulin, netty and i stayed there for a while, and when we've decided to leave, i quickly drank their left overs. and left.. When we arrived at the raffles mrt station, we took photos and Ash and netty's cheeks were red, and i was a bit tipsy, but still could walk properly and still fair-skinned! And then we went home, tired and satisfied. Ash met her friends in city hall mrt. It was a great day! and it was one of the best since prelims era.
