Outing Part 1

Last dunno-what day (I think it was Monday) I went out with Seok, Ian Sann, Sheen Sern and Chai Yee (just so you know I had to force their names out of all the slime that is slugging my sinuses right now) which was quite surprising since I rarely go out with people I dont know (that well).

What happened was, after my Sunday night programs (Macolm in the Middle, Oprah Primetime, Kofee with Karan/The Scholar, Parkinson) I went to my phone (which I dont carry with me when I watch TV or use the computer, cause I dont like being disturbed) and I saw a miracle unfold at the touch of a key, which was a miss call from Seok.

Firstly, Seok never calls me
Secondly, she NEVER calls my handphone

So I called back, and she invited me out for the next day. Normally, I would have said straight away No, since it was late notice, but somehow, I decided to ask my mom anyway, knowing pretty well that she would say no.

So, my mom was packing up to go to Australia, when I told her that my friend had invited me out, but my mom was reluctant as I was just recovering from a flu (which Ive got back now), and also since the annual ball was up in 3 days time. So she told me to ask my dad, who of course said yes. So I told her, and she got quite agitated, and told me it was up to me if I felt like I could go.

So of course, the guilt trip began, but I decided I would not feel guilty and decided to go.

So of course, since Seok had said

'Ok, meet at MPH entrance 1 p.m. sharp', I was there at 1.01pm, and lo and behold no one else was there. So I waited 20 minutes, when I bumped into Sheen Sern on the way to the music section, and then 10 minutes later the rest arrived.

So then, we went to A&W to eat ('You went to ONE UTAMA to eat A&W??!! - Mom) because according to Seok I had to be taught how 'normal' people eat, and be prepared to have a culture shock

If normal people = smart overacheivers who have a very good social life, financial freedom and quite lieniant parents then yes, I want to be normal

And I did not have a culture shock, but A&W WAS practically empty

Anyway, usually when I go out I talk a lot to everyone, but this one was a bit wierd, so I contented myself by smsing JuEn who was laughing at me because I was slightly bored...

BUT NOT BECAUSE OF THE PEOPLE!!!!

And with Seok shooting snide comments my way *sniff*,

but then the movie made up for it...
the past week I had been wondering what happened to the movie that Jojo was acting in, and then on Monday, I found out it was RV and we watched it!

I LOVED IT!!!! I was laughing most of the time...

And then, straight after the movie, everyone left (WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE!!!), and so I had to go back to MPH to buy Ray Muns present, when my mom suddenly calls me and says she has been waiting for me for 20 minutes for some heaven sent reason, so I iniminimynimoed between the 15 choices I had in front of me,

okay no la, I bought something I already had and liked, so thought might as well

and rushed all the way accross OU to the taxi stand where my mom was...
