AFA 08
I went for my cousin's birthday party on Saturday. She's 3years old now. Heh. I still remember when she was born. Loadsa stuff happened. Heh I was Sec 1 at that time, going on to Sec 2.
I feel old. Never mind.
So we went to my other aunt's house to celebrate(not the birthday girl's mother's house), just because we could. And she invited friends and some neighbours too. So there were a lot of kids and I was just stoning around, feeling dang out of place while the kids ran around.
Really weird, but I found the computer and lodged on to it.
Played mahjong till 12AM and they started watching football, Newcastle vs. Chelsea, no? I forgot already, I was playing the computer. Then I came out to watch Man Utd vs. Aston Villa.
Effing boring.
Oh and my aunt is quite rich, condominium and stuff. So she would naturally have rich friends, because birds of a feather flock together. Had a clearer insight of the lifestyle of rich kids.
A lot of stuff like:
'Oh I have to send my child to tuition class tomorrow at 7AM..'
'Umm she has piano lessons at 4PM, I'd try to make it, would be a bit late though.'
'Oh he's going to the driving range tomorrow? Mine too!'
I guess all that tells us that they live those high-class lifestyles, eat high-class food, and play high-class sports like golf.
I hate golf. Is it even a sport? How can swinging a club and walking around to find a ball you hit with the club be considered a sport?
What's needed of golf? You just need to be able to stand and swing. People would start pumping in abstract shit like the need of 'precision', 'control of strength', blah blah blah blah, but would you consider those 'sport'?
If 'precision', 'control of strength', and abstract bullshit like that passes for 'sport', then 'cooking' is a sport. You need to be precise in handling the food, you need to control your strength when you flip the noodles into the bowl, you need to stand to man your stall, blah blah blah.
Why aren't people learning how to cook instead? Ask the rich kids and you'd know that they don't know how to cook maggie noodles. Why bother learning how to 'golf', a virtually useless sport as compared to cooking, when you can cook?
Is this where society is headed to? Golfers and no cooks? You spend thousands on good golf clubs, to play golf. Why not spend money on setting up a stall and earn back that money? =.=
Anyway, at half-time of the match between Man Utd and Aston Villa, I went to check on my scouting of a village.
My scout died lah. Wahlau. I loved that scout. It did a lot of shit for me, then this has to happen. Fine lah. Nobody loves me. Even pixels don't. Sobs.
Oh, what a sad life I lead.
Went out on Sunday afternoon to Suntec City for the AFA 08. I went there in search of porn, and I sort of got what I searched for in the form of PVC.P, where PVC = Plastic, and P = ?
Find: ?
Something interesting happened.
There was this cosplay competition, and there was a huge mat. The seats took up a lot of space, and people who weren't luck enough to sit on chairs had to make to do with sitting on the mat. WK, Ed and I were the few we weren't lucky enough to sit on chairs but lucky enough to sit on the mat people. The people surrounding the mat were standing.
Naturally, people sitting on the mat would sit on the mat and not stand, right? I mean, if I were to stand where everyone else is sitting, I'd be blocking the view of people behind me and prove that I'm some inconsiderate bastard/bitch, right?
There was this couple who simply refused to sit down. There were standing there, with a mob of angry people behind. Being typical Singaporeans, we didn't sexpress our anger at this atrocity.
There were people who did, however. A woman went up and confronted them. She couldn't get them to sit down, and told the people at the back to start boo-ing them. No one replied much. An Indian man did, though, but that was just 'one'. She couldn't do anything, so she backed off.
Then she pointed the middle finger to their backs, because anger occurs only when a problem can't be settled. Emotions show only when something failed or succeeded, but you won't see people getting angry when they succeed. I guess that indicates something.
The emcee spoke through the microphone, calling for everyone to settle down as the cosplay competition was about to start. Sighting the couple, she was like 'and can the 2 people standing there please sit down?'
We started to clap and cheer.
They didn't budge.
There was this man who came out and talked to the male of the couple. The man(an ah pek) was like motioning to them to sit down, and the female of the couple was like crossing her hands the Ultraman way, giving a huge 'NO'.
After much talk with the male, the ah pek motioned for them to move out.
Just as well anyway, because the show was starting. The male moved off first, and the female followed suit.
We started cheering once more and shouting 'whoooooooooots' and stuff like that.
The female didn't want to be seen as a weak person or something, so she retaliated by throwing her brochure at the crowd with a face contorted with rage and hormonal imbalance. I could sense the murderous intent, and I nearly fainted because her haki was so strong.
We all started boo-ing her for that action. Then the competition started.
Nothing much to write about, shan't bore you with the details either. Most were downright lame, and most put the 'WTF' face on me. On a lot of audiences I presume.
I seriously think that anime characters should remain in animes, and not be played out by real humans.
No wonder people in Japan are fighting for the rights to marry anime/manga/game characters. Fictitious characters in short.
Bleh.
Went to pee after that.
Walked around a lot. I saw this short short cute cute girl cosplaying as Kanda from DGM. Heh.
I lost my balls in front of her. I wanted to take a picture with her, because she's cute. I guess this makes me a paedophile. Confirm+guarantee+chop.
I lost sight of her after awhile of shying around, though. So I went around looking for her, and whenever I see people wearing DGM stuff, I'd be like 'Have you seen Kanda?' So if I were faced with Lenalee, I'd be like 'Lenalee! Have you seen Kanda?!??!?!?!!?!?' I think I talked to Lenalee, and I didn't mean to be heard, but it happened anyway. When the random woman started to turn around, I just..ran away.
I found Kanda anyway. Short short cute cute de. Heh. Decided to go hiong hiong and take picture with her. The conversation went something like:
Me: Kanda, can I take a picture with you?
Kanda: Um. OK.
Took 2 pictures with her, but WK's camera taking skills are of the phail and it was shaky. But that's OK. I got it covered. Heh. Here are some pictures of her, if you don't have me on MSN/don't know who's on my display picture, here are some illuminating pictures:
ZOMG IT'S KUCHIKI BYAKUYA(forgot how to spell)!
Oh and there was this Jap anime-song-singer who was supposed to sing at 7.15PM. May'n or something. She looked chio in the brochure.
But I couldn't stay to watch her perform, because there's some sort of family dinner at home. Being a family man, I had to rush home.
I felt like I wasted 5 bucks because I didn't get to see her or hear her sing live.
Here's a video of her: http://www.afa08.com/mayn.htm
BLEH.
A lot of heartaches on Sunday, which was yesterday, since the time now is 1.52AM.
1) I didn't get to see my Kanda before she went home. I think she's from TJC, J1. Shure doesn't look like it. Heh.
I think I was attracted to her or something. Dang. I was making a lot of noise about it on the way home.
Bleh.
2) May'n. Not being able to see a Jap singer sing live, urgh. It's just. Urgh. Wahlau I feel scammed even as I think about it, but I realized that my family is more important than a random Jap singer.
Still...
Aye. Eventful. Going out tomorrow. And blah blah blah. I feel better with my sleep already. Though I could still get more. Heh.
