bottoms up.

Ok, after recovering from my non-existent hangover, i have a confession to make: i'm sad, well, for a host of reasons. Before that, in utilitarian terms, prom was a bloody disappointment. Period. If not for the typical Innovian lackadaisical attitude and lack of adherence to ground rules, the event would have been a stale and squalid affair. I bet my bottom dollar most did not reach on time for either cocktails or dinner although stated explicitly the time was(even myself, i admit). Even when Din, Naz and myself reached the hotel lobby, most of them were still loitering around and have not entered the ballroom yet.

The function started somewhat close to 8, with Ms Yeo making a short opening speech, which was well, short. The first course came briefly afterwards, and that was as close as i came to eating. The subsequent courses were a real bummer. Hardly palatable, the dishes were a far cry from standard hotel fare. The next moments were spent in a flurry of picture snapping, people spotting and ignoring whosever's presence on the stage. In truth, Edwin's and whatsisname's rendition of songs were nice, but ill-timed. Besides the usual prom king/queen and lucky draw events, the other so-called 'competitions' had a lukewarm response.

All those aside, my congratulations to the King and Queen, the stars of the night. After prom, deciding not to go home, we wandering around Clarke Quay area finding a place to watch the Barca-Bremen game. Even flirted with the idea to go to MOS cause some people were selling us tickets at 10 bucks a piece. Ended up walking to Suntec after someone crazily suggested catching a midnight movie. No movie, went to a deserted Marina Square where some forlorn fellows were singing their hearts out at Kbox. Walked back to Clarke Quay where i entered a bar for the first time in my life. Left when coaxed to buy drinks. By then only Dinie, Aiman, Shrills and me were left. Met up with John, Esh and Calvin to walk to Boat Quay. Again another fruitless search till we were languished at Lau Pa Sat where finally a television was showing the match.

Well, what a way to hang out after prom. Took first train home with Shrills. I was certainly late, but not laid. Cheers' 'all!

Later.
