penixxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx! :)
Okay I've to admit that I always thought halloween was a blah festival celebrated in the Western parts of the world as a sad excuse for kids to dress up in their fancy costumes and impersonate random characters to empower themselves or something.
So when I heard Yaanay (the beloved OG which has STILL fought against all odds and is still gonig strong!!!) was going TOTing at Woodlands, i thought what-.- but the mere
but when i first heard of Woodlands i was like...WHAT??!! you mean the like ulu place near JB with lots of HDBs. So we're going to like knock on random doors and go Trick Or Treat?! I mean the poor ahmas/ah gongs will kena heart attack and just die lah. i didnt even think it was like legal in singapore. like maybe you'll be arrested for... disturbing the peace of the quiet neighbourhood of woodlands....or striking terror into the citizens' hearts or something.
anyway, met kris and vivian at hollandv to buy our halloween get-up from the party shop there butOMG it was freaking ex! like the cheapest was 10 bucks for a flimsy plastic mask! losers like us got sent off to the neighbouring mama shop which was basically budgethalloween 101. kris got some clown hair shit, gab the scream mask,and i got this Pirate Package thingy which was quite awesome okay it had some cool vest + sword + eyepatch + hook + flag + hatthingy for only ten bucks :D
only to reach home and realize i can't fit into the fetus-seized vest. like the arm holes are the size of tennis balls!!! and its not like I have monique coleman's arms (Sherrie: HEHEHE) anyway rushed down to Woodlands to meet the rest of the Penix gang.
then while taking the bus to Bishan I realised ppl were staring at me for some strange reason but I thought, screw them. to my great horror and embarrassment, when I sat down, I realised the handle of my sword was sticking out like some sore thumb.. like I wanted to whip it out any moment and brandish its aluminium blade in someone's face ahhhhh.
But nvm the rest of the Penix gang was relatively noob at all this so we all looked just like freaks with bad fashion sense rather than trick o'treating scary freaks.
Gabriel looked the most 'halloweenish' in his The scream mask, Jon was just the joke of the night with adela's IJ uniform, Enna was a clown/witch, Adela was a... um, jogging monster? Kris was a kickass militant, Joel was the invisible man/skunk (being all black and wearing black), and vivian was a.. err, suspended nerd?(lol sounds like a oxymoron)
okay then we proceeded to further embarass ourselves by - surprise - taking the bus in the WRONG DIRECTION from the interchange(it was loop service but we sat in it for like 45 minutes instead what was supposed to be just '5 stops away')
In the process of which me kris viv were playing ssm and jon and gab were playing around with my pseudo sword. and omg i was almost going hysterical cos yen was like everyone's leaving and there are no sweets left etc. anyway the uncle was all like.. 15 mins .. reaching soon.. and LO AND BEHOLD after like ages ended up at where?? THE INTERCHANGE AGAIN!!! yes and this time we were at the correct side. so we continued on the bus while people got on (this is where we were supposed to get on) for another 5 painfully slow stops.
upon arrival we whipped out our costumes and transformed ourselves.
I took out my red bandana and clawww
kris put on her army cap
viv her glasses
gabe his mask (which made him look better)
enna her clown hair :D
joel his skunk hoodie
adela her red cheesy sunglasses,neon headband, sweatbands and high socks (i still have no idea how a midnight jogger who is afraid of the glaring moonlight is supposed to be spooky)
and...
jon looked at the pinafore as though it was his mother's used underwear..looking thoroughly lost and confused at what went where. anyway it (surprisingly..or not) seemed to be made for him (like omg he was even a guai kia IJ-ian. pls it went up to his KNEES! and its seams didnt burst GASP)
then i rmb i had a sword...
so i casually asked the idiots where it was
AND HAH.
They had the CHEEK to laugh and tell me they left it on the damn bus!!!!!!!
MY (well almost) TEN DOLLAR SWORDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!!!
still rub it in somemore ):
so we walked around the entire Woodlands Celebrates Halloween estate going up to 'em kickass ang mo houses with 'em kickass spooky decorations and collecting kickass candy (omg sounds like fiona's blog) from badass ang mo kids with their badass parents beside them.
yayyyyy we had cool US candy. not that I really cared
omg pls dont call me a devil child but...
I seriously DO NOT like candies (esp those hard ball-like ones omg ew)
but i like gummies (NON SOUR ONLY) and um generally things chewy like CHOCOLATE:D
anyway i'm pissed that no one cared about us despite our pains to dress up...COS in the end because SOME ONE just had to steal all the limelight with a costume..no a uniform he didnt even have to buy!!!! the bobo jon was the star of the night. the princess of the palace. the cinderella of the ball. like omg everyone loved him! the ang mo uncle was like totally flirting with him and calling him sweetie, the ang mo auntie was saying he was the prettiest girl she'd ever seen and like 2 random groups of giggly teenage girls requested to take photo with him. oh...and this row of um... ma- malay dudes yes were sitting along the roadside whistling and calling him sexaye. hahaha seeing in which he received all this attention (which, strangely enough he never did as a GUY) we decided to exploit it by making him go ahead of us to collect the sweets...
MEMOIRS OF A TRANNY:
I am so lonely... someone pick me up and send me to Orchard tower..at least I get paid there

eh poledancing pose doesnt seem to work..maybe i'll do a marilyn monroe..
gasp adela the hardcore jogger upskirting the dainty IJ girl who (thankfully) is wearing very manly black pants...
gab: i....need.... more.... white powder..
jon: noooo! i will neverrrr desert my darling even though you shiver and vibrate and hallucinate. let me sit here and look pretty with my flower and scarf... Pirate nerd, freak jogger and her pet Ice Bat
Freak jogger, suspended bobble head nerd with pet Ice Bat and wannabe jack sparrow
FUN TIMES Y'ALL :)
