Winter Wonderland!

Yeah, I dragged a few friends with me for an hour of on-ice torture. Well the good thing is that if you injure yourself, it won't hurt as much. Bless the numbing properties of ice! I didn't fall once! I'm brilliant. I think Darren and Alvin were having some kind of falling-over competition because they fell down...A LOT.

Ah! Man, got caught by ticket inspectors for not having a concession card. They were really nice, but I hope I don't get fined otherwise I'll be in deep deep...poo. Darren and Alvin INSISTED on chasing each other around Southern Cross Station. The rest of us looked on in horror and wondered, "do we know these people?".

Everyone but me under random unknown sculpture (it's the Docklands ya know? There are many random unknown sculptures)

There were eight people to start off with, ME!, Chan, Ying, Alice, Alvin, Dhanish, Darren and....Winson. Oh my gosh. I can't believe Dhanish invited him. Scary lah. Then Chris came with his sister. His sister is very nice. If Chris wanted us to go later he should have told me sooner that he wouldn't be able to make it in the morning. Chris and Elizabeth skated in the session after us, so it was a good opportunity to sit there and laugh because for once Chris sucked at something. Nah not really, we sat there and played with the stuff in Alice's Original Idiot showbag. There were two blackouts during their session. Sorry about the lack of photos guys! Everyone else kindly helped me with these, but I'm lazy and cbb taking photos!

Darren, Chan and Me!!

Me, Alvin, Chan and Alice

Me, Alvin an Alice
Me, Alice and Alvin (wth..)
Alice, that's so YOU daaaahling! I love showbags!
During the first blackout, as soon as the lights went off, everyone fell over HAHA! We were watching everyone skating when suddenly BAM! Hahahahaha! When the second one came, the fair people opened all the tent curtains. There was this hot guy. Yeah, I have the amazing ability to hone in on any hot guys in the area. I noticed him working on the snow slide before the blackout lol. I'm like....a satellite but less expensive. Hmm, I should put that on my CV right Alvin? Anyway, I said to Ying sotto voce, "Ying! Don't you think that guy is hot?". Ying looked at him for like, 5 seconds and then said, "Yeah!". Haha, I'm a genius.

After the second blackout, the power didnt come back so we all just left.

Well I had a good time skating, but after that it wasn't really much fun. Dhanish is the WORST person to take shopping. SERIOUSLY. With Winson too. They walked so SLOW. Then they get lost. Then we have to spend ages LOOKING for them and AHHH! Eventually the boys with Elizabeth went to the State Library and us normal ones went shopping by ourselves. Well I bought a cheapo shirt dress thing.

I had tuition so as soon as I came home, I started my chinese essay. Then I had tuition, and now I'm thinking about watching another drama. I already finished 東方茱麗葉 (Tokyo Juliet) Hmmm, I think I'll watch 花樣少年少女 (Hana Kimi). Hey, I just realized that this is one Vanessa recommended to me. I didn't know it was also called Hana Kimi till I looked it up. Well I'm definitely watching it now. Wu Zun MAY look like a girl, but he has huge muscles for an asian person. Oh! Also has Jiro Wang from ISWAK, Ah Jing remember? They're both from Fahrenheit. Actually, it's weird how they recycle their actors...I just realized I recognize most of them from other dramas...weird. Wow that was completely off topic.

With love,
Mel
