life is not complete without a bloody mary.
anyway, wkwsci dnd was a small event held in the retro room of MOS. i believe that room is called hall 57... or something like that.
anyway, though small, it was fun to see people all dressed up. i came in a newspaper boy kinda of look, with an all black outfit and red suspenders. liyana came with suspenders and a half-suit. sarah came as a flapper. pamy came in a chic outfit. and adeline was somewhere in between. but they all (except liyana) wore pearls. people were decked out in fedora hats, feathers and cheongsams. tingyi was dressed in a curious way. he had a nice suit, but the inside....?
i was pleasantly surprised to have been picked for best dressed (especially since there was another person who was dressed nearly identical to me (spare the newspaper boy cap). but i was even more so surprised to have gotten a 20 dollar topshop voucher for it and then later on winning ANOTHER topshop voucher for the lucky draw. and i am sorry to adeline/pamy/sarah for not picking up their numbers for the 80 dollar cathay voucher. oops. by the way i never won a lucky draw before. remind me to buy toto later.
since a year two (apple) organized the dnd, it kind of explained the large number of year 2s present in the crowd. however, it doesn't take away the fact that it was rather enjoyable. i didn't really feel bored or felt left out. it would have been more fun if more year ones came.
i think it was angela who told me, before i started school, to run for everything and try everything in university.
one for practical reasons, as she is a business graduate, for the necessary contacts in your working life in the future.
but two, for less practical reasons, these will be your last few years of your life as a student. and these are the days that will be the most fun. if you make the most of it. professor anthony at the hall one investiture echoed the same sentiments: to be boring is the greatest sin.
so... don't shy away guys. this could be your last chance as a student to do anything. without getting reprimanded.
haha.
