Last Night

Swissotel. I felt so awkward, so out of place, so many times, but it was still fun. Bad lighting, photos with flashes that I hate & my stupid mistake that prevented me from bringing a camera to prom causing me to subsist on my polaroid (which "broke down" later on anw!) & other kind souls' cameras. Food was pretty good in some dishes but not in others, but I'm inclined to think that overall I enjoyed the food more than I did in Orchard Hotel 2 years ago. I'm glad we had John as prom king nominee for a last sense of class solidarity, even if he was only first runner up.

MBS has really awesome rooms but I don't want to think about how much they cost. A toilet twice/triple the size of normal hotel toilets & a roomy bedroom area. I predict that the view from our room would look fantastic once the construction is complete, because now it is a map of orange/brown sand. Walking/cabbing up and down through Marina to Dhoby & all around to play (or as in my case, watch) LAN through 1-6am was an experience. Inhaling second-hand smoke was not my cup of tea but now I know. Bus stop talks, getting to know people better. Breakfast at Macs at 6am with other groups of VJ people all around was interesting. I spied at least two other groups residing at MBS.

Drifting in & out of sleep as we waited for the guys to finish doing wtv they were doing - twice? I'm amazed that I'm not really tired now even though I'm usually like that. Also, just how cold the whole of MBS was, even in the sky garden/pool. The wind just kept blowing & it was really nice, but a much-absent jacket would have been greatly appreciated. The view at the otherwise $20 per entry skypark was fascinating & very gratifying.

Ending w xlb makes it perfect :)
