Went for open house yesterday.I left the house at 10.30 with my parents, who dropped me off at Lot1. I almost forgot what to do at a LRT station (that's how much of an idiot I am >>). Jiamin reminded me that I was able to take any route, and alight at the BP stop. Without specs, I found that a tad hard since I can't really make out anything within 2 meters without squinting. x_X
It took some time before I reached BP Mac where I was 'designated' to wait for her. We went a little shopping, I bought a nice clip and a new comb. Went back down to Mac and sat down, waiting for the rest to arrive.
Yin called, and arrived with Huifen.
Then Jiemin and Shaoqi arrived.
We called up Zhihui, and she said she was in the basement with Andy and Hanwei. What in the world is she doing with them..? Anyhow, they arrived soon after, and Zhihui left with Jiamin to do further shopping while we waited for Nick, Sean and others.
Kaili came.
William came.
Sean came.
Us: "Where's Nick?"
Sean: "He said he's at Mac already.."
Me: "He told Jiemin he's at home, then says he's arriving in a minute. He tells you he's at mac. Where the fark is he."
Sean: "Aiyah, he'll get his dad to drive right up here one lor."
Us: "Hope so."
We go on to having girl talks, and Jiemin claims that she dreamt of Fred last night.. in a chalet. I didn't know she was like, a Fred-fan. o_o
Jiamin and Zhihui arrive back, and Nick comes along wearing his bro's shirt, of which he denies it's Fred's. Harr.
Oh, Yanliang appears out of nowhere and gets tortured by us girls again.
Jiemin then suggested having Yoshinoya. Yindi and I both had Terriyaki chicken and Salmon, and Sean, Jiemin and Qi had Beef noodles, I think. I felt f*cking full after that, even though I already skipped my breakfast.
*lets skip the bullcrap, yah. OFF TO THE POLY!!~!1!!1one~!!*
When we finally reached NP after much pains and agony, William took Kaili, Andy, Yanliang, Huifen and Hanwei another route, of which they had to walk a further distance. One thing: "Don't trust William's 'hao zhu yi'".
Alfie and Kok Liang (did I spell it right?) came over to greet us at the gates, and we went off when Kaili&Co arrived. We took our goodie bag thingies, and on stage at that moment, someone had just won an iPod mini.
Everyone: "......wtf!"
Jiemin: "I WAN IPOD MINIIIIIEEE!!"
Apparently she really wants one, as in her MSN nick: "I want an iPod Mini for my bday!". Too much of Nick's influence in my opinion; he's gonna start an 'iPod trend' in 5A. I did want one, but if it's going to get so common, I'll stick to Jerrold's suggestion; Zen Micro. o_o The sky blue one looks really nice..
Also saw an ex-BPian and ex-CO member.. I could tell you, I sooo wanted to walk off when she was talking to me. I just seem to have manners installed too far deep in my brain to do otherwise. Damn it.
Kok Liang then brought us to the... dunno what's it called. But we went in to see the courses, and I landed myself into deep trouble. T_T!
Jiamin: "Eh Gloria, there's BioMedical!"
Me: "Where where??"
Jiamin: "There... *points* BioMedical.... Engineering? Eh?"
*lecturer pops out of nowhere*
Lecturer: "Did someone mention ENGINEERING?"
Jiamin: "Em.."
Me: "Uh oh."
Lecturer: *looks at me* "Come come, follow me."
Me: Greeaatt. *follows*
Had around a 15-20 minute talk with them.. and I wasn't interested in engineering at all! T_T~ I turned my head and saw Yindi, Zhihui, Kaili and Jiamin at the Masscomm booth. I wannnnttt... tooo... goooo.. >>!
After I was finally released, I tried looking for Jiamin and realised we were running to each other in circles. I ran and finally caught up with her, where she told me that BioMedical -SCIENCE- was on the other side. Wanted to nab the MassComm brochure as well, but that lady was like "you want one? Need to ask question. We running out of them." Felt like.. slapping.. >>!
We left, and wandered around places like Business and Accountancy block, a supposed Horticulture building when inside wrote "Film and Studio" o_o and to the library, and finally, we decided to look for Carl, who apparently was at block 40. We walked, walked and walked.
(Just so you know, I have never ever -ever- seen Carl before. Few pictures and all, yes. But not IRL. o_o)
We arrived at Block 40 FINALLY, and I wondered how the heck Carl got there without the shuttle bus (students aren't allowed to use, apparently). We walked everywhere, and finally when we arrived at the place where they were making ice-cream, I saw someone who looked really familiar. I stared... Is that Carl? Everyone who was around me asked that question as well. I nodded, but was still rather unsure. *sms arrives* "Saw you le, the one with white shirt de.."
So okay, he saw me. o_o I didn't reply back, since.. I didn't want to like, make anyone think I like him or anything. I didn't really get to talk to him though, he was with his juniors. #1 rule: Do -not- interrupt someone when talking. Okay maybe not #1, but still, I know better than to interrupt someone just to say Hi. Only when we left, did he turn around, and I waved to him.
I didn't mention we got separated from Kaili&Co and Jiemin, Qi, Sean and Nick, did we? Well, we did. It was merely Kok Liang, Alfie, Jiamin, Yindi, Zhihui and me left to take the shuttle bus all the way back to Canteen 1, where we waited for Kaili&Co. Apparently Jiemin and party have already left the campus, and didn't even want to go to NYP. o_o;;
We gathered together, and Kok Liang, Alfie and Jiamin left on their own to go back home. The rest of us.. decided to go West Mall to watch Meet the Fockers.
We waited from 5+ to 7 just for the movie, but I suppose it was worth it.
"Asssssssssssssssss...... Hooooolllee."
