i can't believe i forgot about Gender Bender Ball :( oh welll.....there's always next year. anyhows. gender bender ball is part of our halloween celebrations whereby guys dress as girls and girls dress as boys. now i know why dresses are meant for girls ONLY. it's just disturbing to see a guy in a girl's dress unless we're talking about kumar or hossan leong. but that's a different story. 

michelle and i were in the courtyard playing speed when we heard this strange female voice greeting us. i looked up and got t

he shock of my life. ok. not really the shock of my life, but nonetheless, it was a rude shock. a guy in a dressed. i was completely stunned, not knowing how to respond to that. any-o-hows....i will go next year..yes i will..meanwhile...i need to think about what i should do for haloween's masquerade ball. oh me oh my....in the past i 

used to be so sad that i can't celebrate haloween, but now i'm like oh me oh my...what do i wear and what shall i be?? zzzz...

this weekend has been pretty kickass, with drawing mid-terms out of the way, i only have homework for 2d design, out of which i already completed 2/3 of it during the week and i just had to do my characterisation and updating

 of my notebook work. :) got some of my midterm grades already, got an A for my drawing 

(WHOOOPPIIEEE) and a B for my art history..not bad considering how i hate it though i could have gotten an A if not for my carelessness and lack of details (COS HE BLOODY SAID THERE WASN'T A NEED TO PUT THAT DOWN!!.. GRRR) 

anyways...for this week's 2d project, we have to create a book. at first i thought she meant like design a book cover cos it's 2d after all and i'm like COOL. i can give this to my pacey when i;m done for her journal! and then my bubble got smashed when she told us we were going to create characters for a story :( i suck at creating imaginary things :( not good for someone going into creative arts..so here was my shot at creating characters. ... MONKEY SEE MONKEY DO.MONKEY HOO HOOO HOO HOO HOO ;D

initial stage...i wish more of the basic skeletal marks could be seen cos it really made me feel like i'm going into animation, which after this exercise i have determined that though i dont really suck at creating cartoon creatures...this is not what i want to do cos i had such a hard time struggling with this..grrr....

after inking...we weren't allowed to make them all uniformly coloured. hence the alternation

highlight of the week....

LOW COUNTRY SHRIMP BOIL with 180 and downpour @ the Bamboo Gardens!

bamboo gardens...how cheesy is that?!?! sounds so cheena-fied like it comes from china. lol. didn't really see much bamboos though :S 

pumpkin patch...see that pile of orange? that's the pumpkin. the patch is pretty much a patch now cos there's nothing much there anymore. 

naomi, rachel, heather, orlando and i played frisbee on the grass patch next to the pumpkin patch :) great time to run cos it was soooo colddddd...it's getting colder and cold-errrr....michelle is even wearing her winter coat. eekkssss...

you can't really tell how much food there is on the tables, but it's ALOT. not everything is out at this point of time anyway, but joe bought all the corns in savannah for this and that was aloottttt..he bought over a 100 corns for this and it was still not his target :S

so we had more than a 100 pounds of sausages, a 100 pounds/number of potatoes. 90 pounds of fresh shrimp. YUMMYYY...the shrimp/prawn had uber soft and thin shells, not like those we have in Singapore that cut ur hands cos it's so hard. it's super soft like the epidermal layer of the onion. just push and peel it off the prawns. easy peasy :)

after we ate we danced to the music. yes. i danced too. haha. jill, naomi and michelle dragged me to the dance floor and most of the time it was awkward. i don't know what to do with my hips, hands and legs. lol. there was this jumping song and like everyone was CRAZY jumping and you could see the whole platform bend. IT WAS SOOO SCARY I WAS SOOO WORRIED IT WOULD BREAK AND WE WOULD ALL WALL INTO THE WATER. aye-yai-yai....

twas was my week. i had fun :)
