Victoria Institution : BOTB @ Carnival 2005

have another tag to show off!

This tag gave me a reason to borrow an Epiphone Les Paul from Thian Chow Di! Looked exactly like Slash’s own. Looked. Prefer the feel of my Squier though. Fender just feels like silk to the fingers. Many thanks to Chow Di anyway!

OMG. I Didn’t Take a Picture With It.

*WAAAAAA…..*

k let’s start with the beginning of Friday. Went to SMBB with Woon to get his school magazine. Discovered that i was offered to go for Form 6, ie, STPM. blurkz. no thanks. Pn.Shirley, aka. Shirls was expressing her joy of owning a Kancil, in light of the recent petrol price hike. Pn.Ooi enviously thought of changing her car aloud. En.Khairi is Still a Very very very kind person, as one 5 Dedikasi girl would testify (he gave a perfect score for Lisan). Pn.Yoga knew bout my accident.. well-informed, as always. After we had looked up all the important people, Woon and i stopped for a quick leak. Saw something interesting.

SMBB Toilet never fails to disappoint.

Went over to MidV after that to meet up with Nithiya to get stuff for his mom for Mama Day. After touring the perfume area of Jusco and getting sprayed with a bunch of scents, we approached the DKNY section. Promoter there could put Carson of Queer Eye to shame. Gayness-wise, that is. After weighing the offers, Nithiya finally decided to get a(something, NOt Chanel, either Tommy Hilfiger or DKNY, i can’t recall..) package of perfume, body lotion and a bag for his mom. Woon bought a Body Glove wallet for his brother’s birthday, but put his mom’s gift on hold. Had lunch at the Food Junction, and sent Nithiya off.

Woon and I headed to Kishore’s house. There, we find Premila (who i called), sitting alone downstairs. Kishore, in what was probably the worst hosting of the century, was upstairs, on the phone with his shorty. (is she shorter than him??) gave her Dvds that she requested, and helped with some of her SAT math problems. Wasn’t too much help, but some were doable.. Meanwhile, Eddy the (female) dog got tired of sharpening her teeth on everyone and settled down.

Eddy (short for Edwina) rests.

The time finally came. Premila left, Kishore came down, and joined Woon and i in our epic journey to Ryan’s house.

Ryan’s house was a time of discovery.

We discovered how Datuk Kame of Dragonball Z would look like in real life, if he had hair, and was indian.

..we also discovered what a chinese wannabe would look like in Neo’s glasses..

..and left for jamming soon after, practiced our set, that consisted of our song, Ghost, November Rain, and Manbai’s Kau Ilhamku.

Left for dinner at Old Klang Road, on the way to OUG. Bak Kut Teh! the one in Kepong Baru is better.. but well, it was the company that counted.. Kishore and Ryan learned “mai tan” and “ka fan”. I learnt that Ting only spoke teochew. will secretly record him speaking it someday.

Returned to Kishore’s abode.

People in attendance : Ryan, Ting, Woon, Ephraim, Joel, Kishore, Me.

Swapping ghost stories, listening to snippets of songs that, played backwards, had hidden messages.. was fun! (if you like being scared and creeped out to the max, that is) played chor tai ti, atop the aforementioned Les Paul case. Felt like a real rocker. minus the cigs, booze and hot chicks. ..mm.. what if Joel dressed up..? nah, wouldn’t work. (ya think?!)

btw, THIS is Joel, and yes, that is an inflated erm, bolster on his head.

after some hours, Joel and Ephraim left for the night.. which signalled the beginning of..

The Saidina Tournament.

Kishore’s Property.

Long story short. At the end of the game, Kishore Owned Every Single Thing there was to be owned on the board. Except the 4 Plantations, which Ting held on to for dear life. The Self-proclaimed Saidina of Saidina named Saidina declared victory. The dice is possessed, i tell you.

(cue : Slipknot – The Heretic’s Anthem)

“IF UR A FIVE FIVE FIVE I’M A SIX SIX SIX”

well.. that was what the dice was.. most of the time..

Everyone was simply tired after the intense game.

(not tired enough for the camera, though..)

Sleepy boy..

Ting likes grey. And that’s a human hand, not a gorilla of any kind.

Ryan imagines himself with a gorilla. (he’s sleeping beside Kishore)

..and slumber engulfs us all.

The Following morning, soundcheck at VI @ 8am. Competition only started at 1:20pm. Was fun, we were first up. The important people came to support us.. Thanks yall. Special shoutout to Kishore’s parents, Ryan’s mom..

We didn’t win, nor make top 3.. but we were in the Top 10!

…(there were 10 bands competing)..

well, we qualified. ^.^

returned to Kishore’s house after results.. to be greeted with the pleasant discovery that his mom had given us RM100 to spend at A&W Taman Jaya.. xD

Ryan, Kishore, Ting & I had a taste of heaven. Well, what Seemed like heaven, after many dehydrating hours..

Heaven, part 1

Heaven, Part 2

WAFFLES! Ice-Cream Waffle.. (not featured here, cos was too busy eating it)

Roshan came soon after, and helped us finish whatever was left, effectively rendering Kishore’s mother’s money well spent. Went back to Kishore’s place via LRT, then cab as Ting left for Cheras. Tired beyond belief. Ryan collapsed on Kishore’s carpet, i on his chair. Aladdin was playing on the Disney channel. i still could remember the entire script. more or less.

Eddy likes stretching.

was picked up by mother from Kishore’s place.

had 13 hours of sleep.

we were due to perform @ The Curve for Mother’s Day the following day (Sunday).
