Edit again: Bangkok photos are also up HERE and in the sidebar but I don't expect anyone but the 4 of us who went together to be interested in the least in the photos but I like to look at them so there (:
HELLO Linette are you seeing this heehee (:
Pre Prom Preparations
... were a lot more fun than prom itself, it seemed. Haha! Perhaps it was because of my resolute decision to do everything myself at the lowest cost possible. It just doesn't make logical sense to me to spend so much for a few hours worth of phototaking.
Bought a dress online (on sale!) from the USA some time ago, dug out an old pair of heels (but I love them they're comfy and pretty), curled my own hair, did my own makeup, made my own bracelet, painted my own nails - well you may turn your nose up at me and scoff at my minimal expenditures, but I have to say I had a blast doing all that by myself. Hehehe. Sadly, not a single other girl wanted to join me in my cost-free preparations, so I had Justin come over and amuse himself with Pinball while I preened.
Curling my hair, the old fashioned way! With torn up rolls of magazine, a million bobby pins, and a large bottle of styling mousse. It was crazy fun haha! And, I nearly suffocated to death trying to take a nap and trying not to squish the curlers at the same time.
Imagine my horror when we removed the curlers and discovered just how CURLY my hair was. Hahaha.
But no worries, we teased it into shape and it turned out pretty nice (: I like how you can see my dramatic grimace in the mirror reflection.
And yes, I did my own makeup.
Prom - Classmates
Hmm so many photos to choose from. I'll be uploading them all onto shutterfly so here is a small selection of photos in which (1) I look retarded (2) I look ugly or (3) there are a number of people inside. Just because I'm sick of looking at photos where everyone's looking pretty pretty glam glam. Teeheehee.
With Gabrielle and Yiling, who didn't seem to notice that Gabrielle and I were making silly faces. And Angel in the darkness behind us. (Whoops, that sounds a tad sinister haha!)
Charity who looked completely different! Nono, I'm not just talking about this photo haha, but she really looked very different in a good way. Never noticed her eyes were so big until she finally took off the spectacles.
"Lizhan why you never smile in the photos! Smile for me smile for me!" So I tried to copy his teeth-baring smile. He looks like a cartoon character, I just can't place which one exactly.
Jon, Ethel, Liru. Whoopsies someone's blinking!
Gabrielle, Jeslyn. "Let's take a candid shot!!" -all begin to sway around and fling hands in the air wildly-
Tubby says "Let's take ANOTHER photo!" So we wave our arms about and go "wheee".
Class beauties (well, not everyone's here).
The class. Photo stolen from Tubby and then edited. (:
Other People
Just! Who's always knows when I need a motivational message from him. Hehe. We need to Chingay again.
Evelyn Chew, who pointed out that we have a photo together at pretty much every stage of our lives. And Banana who gave me a blood clot on my toe thanks to her heels. Hehehe don't worry Lychee still loves you <3
Bryon Teo. Primary 1 to 3 partners! We used to loathe each other so much that we refused to hold hands when walking down to recess, so we held pinkies instead.
The Bangkok gang. Hehe (:
Hanloong wearing "his mum's top". Haha! Yes, I do find this photo a little disturbing, yes.
Kevin so handsome (: Hehe I really really LOVE his outfit. Like, really really. (:
xY!! So shocked to see you there! All pearly and gloved (: And sorry for shoving you to the front, but then again you got proposed to, so maybe I'm not so sorry after all ;)
Post Prom Party
Got in free of charge, thanks to Glen, and without my ID, thanks to Nina. (: Interesting sights there, for example all of us in shock after seeing * and * Being One. Lost my voice promptly after screaming to be heard over the racket.
Hello Sandhya! (: We DID take a photo and here it is! It was a nice surprise seeing you there. Teehee we both got very disturbed in the hotel room because of someone and someone, which made me vacate the bed and crawl into hers to complain. OK TELL ME STORY (:
Lizhan on his way to being intoxicated! :D
Joel is actually trying to be cutesy but my arm wasn't long enough to include his cutesy fingers.
The obligatory slutty-poses-at-the-club photo. Hehe.
And the obligatory hello-I-am-an-alcoholic photo as well. Hehe.
Some Handsome Ruggers & Our Rooms
The Handsome Boyfriend looking particularly handsome here.
Handsome Bodyguard doing his favourite pose. With Handsome Senthil peering at him unamused.
Wenloong looking Very Handsome with my red clutch that matches perfectly with his outfit.
Handsome Ilman with the rubber lips. Too bad I forgot to ask him to do it for me ):
What a random photo. Jaafer trying to look like a Bad Boy toying with a cigarette, and Wenloong ("at my cervix", so his t-shirt claims) trying to make me look like a Bad Girl with a cigarette tucked behind my ear. (Actually noone in this photo smokes haha.)
This is what we look like after sleeping at 6.30 am. Had a fitful night thanks to noisy boys who snore and grunt and cough in their sleep. Haha! I have to say, Just is really funny when he sleeps, but let's not mention what the boys did to him here. Hehehe.
My sleep cycle is all screwy from sleeping at 6.30 am and waking at 10? 11? And then going home for an hour's nap at 4 pm. And then sleeping at 2.30 am because of a Very Exciting Discussion with Kerrie Huilin Bryon, and waking up at 8 am today just because I always wake up at around that time.
Anyway I'll upload my photos in Shutterfly soon because I know some people need to steal the photos (:
Fun as I make it out to be here, prom itself was actually not eventful at all. I generally hovered around my table and waited for people to come by, because I was lazy and tired and bored.
I suppose at the end of the day, what matters most is looking at the millions of photos that we took, and recalling all the precious, precious memories.
