The 4 Day Package.

Wednesday

We finally auditioned on Wednesday. Well, I can be sure that Loretta & myself were nervous. He looked the part and even followed through by fumbling here and there (the others didn't know he fumbled though). I on the other hand was seriously having a hard time getting my voice out there. Couldn't hit keys nor could I sustain them. To make this even funnier than it already is, it was a private audition. We had a room all to ourselves and only about 7 people were there to hear us. Only 7 people and we're already in pieces. We've got quite a bit of work to do. Well, we got through. I'm grateful and very much relieved because even with that performance, we already got a "I like it a lot". If we can get composed properly, I think we'll do wonders on the night itself. Ha. Did I mention that I think I'd like to call us The Brotherhood of the Pink Ribbon? In the night when I got home, I picked up the lame Malay article and began to translate it for the group members (and myself). God, I was up all night. Sick of Malay. Yes. Sick Sick Sick. Then I left home for college.

Thursday

Yes, I left home for college and was a zombie which was too tired to even sleep in JoA's car. Today we had tutorials, tutes were fun. JoA was finally enlightened on why I called someone what I called her before. Now she understands that I wasn't being mean (lol). After tutes and JoA's short meeting, we began trying to figure out where to eat. We settled for lunch in Rice Bowls. Some interesting conversation ensued. During our interesting conversation, an idea of what to do while waiting for The Fuz to get to the train station came to me. We were to go to KL Tower. JoA had wanted to go for a while now (2 years?) and I never really thought of visiting because it never really crossed my mind. We headed towards the tower and reached there after taking a wrong turn or two. It was interesting how when we reached the base of the tower, we seemed more excited about looking for the entrance to the duty-free store there. We couldn't find it because the store wasn't opened yet (sadness). In disappointment, we then went into the tower. RM20 (sheesh), that's what it costs for a foreigner to get to the top of the tower. I was a little shocked when the lady at the counter said that if we showed her our ICs, we, as Malaysian citizens only had to pay half that price. The wonders of being a Malaysian! I'm patriotic again!
The tower was nothing special though. Of all the days to go up there, we chose a hazy day. We couldn't see too far and besides, the observation deck was a little crowded. It was alright I guess, for the first 5 minutes.

Well, after leaving the very interesting KL tower, we decided it was time to go. I hadn't slept all night. I was up doing a translation of some lame Malay psychology article. I think I've had enough of Malay for a while. We went to pick The Fuz up. On the way there I fell asleep. We picked up The Fuz and then after changing at JoA's place, we took off for Rio to play some futsal. FUTSAL! Me?! Futsal?! Something I really didn't expect myself to enjoy. I was never really a footie person. Sure I've played my share of footie back in highschool but that was it. Never really touched a football since highschool (so I correct myself here, it's been more than 2 years. Maybe even 4 years). Well, I got the taste of what I had expected. My stamina was in the ruts. 15 minutes into the game and I was panting like mad. I really needed to get out of the court. After another exhausting half, we went for drinks and some food. Then we all dispersed and JoA dropped me off at the bus stop (thank you!!). At home, I washed up and waited for my hair to dry before I took a nap. Woke up later than expected. Oversleeping is a hobby. JoA called me nearly 13-15 times (thank you!!). Got up and began to rush my Social Psychology assignment. I forged on till about 5am then gave up because I began to see words which weren't in the articles I was reading and began to type things which didn't make any contextual sense (aka, I was sleepy).

Friday

I woke up at 12pm and began to finish off my assignment. I did. When I got ready to go out and head to college, it began raining again. I had no choice but to borrow my granny's flowery little umbrella (I think it's cute). After rushing to hand up my assingment, I headed off into Subang to meet JoA. We were going to play CS with Shaun & Loretta (Dong has been ammended to Shaun by request). It was a fun night as we watched JoA suppress the enemy once more. Such skill. Well, after a bit of coaxing, I agreed to join Loretta, Shaun, The Fuz, JoA and Adam to play futsal with them at the CFP fustal meet the next day. At 2am in the morning, I managed to convince Reneeta to join our team as well and her only condition was that she didn't play at all and was a reserve.

Saturday

I woke up late (AGAIN!). We were going to play futsal again. I was supposed to meet JoA at the train station at 10:30 but I woke up at 9:50 (the HoRRoR!). I was forced to call The Fuz and get him to drive us to Shaun's place. He did and we got there. We met up there and after having a light breakfast, we began to search for the place. We found it after a while and in fact, we weren't all that late (haha). We entered the arena and found a sweaty Reneeta. Some of her first words were "You remember I told you I didn't want to play right? Well, I've played!" (LoL). We all began to get warmed up for the game and when we played, we played. I was reluctant to even play at first but after the first game (which was also very tiring) I think I got all hyped up. I wanted to play more. After the second game, my right thigh began to work up. My toes were killing me too but I wanted to play somemore (wahahahaha). In the last game, this big guy side-stepped into my foot and I ended up with my big toe blue-blacked (if there is such a word). What made matters worse was that a while after that, I had to swerve out of the way because this time, a girl side-stepped into my way. That pretty much killed my toe and thigh. Well, the games were loads of fun. I've never been this hyped up about playing futsal before but yeah, I am now. I'm waiting for my toe to heal and then I'm going to play somemore (lol).
After the games, we had some drinks and food then went on to have our showers. I had to take a bath at Loretta's and from there waited for JoA to finish washing up.

JoA was going to take me to pick up my little sister so that we could take her to the magic show which was going on Subang Parade. When we made it there, I found my little sister crying. My Mom had struck again. I will not go into the specifics but simply put, my mom had made my sister cry and that pretty much spoilt her mood and she ended up locking herself into a room and not willing to come out. I decided that it was best we left this little trip for some other time and left but on the way decided that I should buy my sister something to make her feel a bit better. JoA was understanding and kind enough to turn back and let me buy some KFC for my little sister. After that, I ended up telling JoA a story I hadn't told anyone for a while. My past. We headed off for dinner. We had quite decent food. I got stuffed again. Besides the little kink in the night with my sister's issue, I had a generally good time.
