lesson #172: cocco latte serves disgusting lamborghini

Gosh. Only a couple of days have passed and yet I've got so many things to tell! Don't know where to start. OK. First off, G got the job that I'll be doing too. So we'll be colleagues along with Michelle. Our title will be Accounts Assistant, how cool is that? Since we're working at lovely Raffles Hotel, duty meals will be provided. That part is nice, too. I'm looking forward to working. Really curious to know what I'll be doing, and I'll really cherish doing manual data entry after my job-agency job experience.


Secondly an old colleague from StarHub, Steven, called me up to invite me and Maggie to come to a fashion/make-up show at Mandarin Hotel on 6 June. That sounded pretty interesting, as well.


Then there's Syd's birthday. We'll be going Sentosa tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to get a nice tan. Must remind G to bring the straw mat that we bought during the sucky Movies By The Bay! We also celebrated her birthday at Cocco last night. To be honest, I felt quite lost in the beginning. Syd's friends are all around and the people whom I know (Mich and Vida) didn't stay around for long. I'm not saying that Syd's friends aren't friendly, because they are. But it's just not the same. I miss my best friend and clubbing mate who'll soon be going to Sri Lanka to do saintly volunteer work. Come on Jing, no matter how much good you do over there, it won't change my opinion of you. Don't deny your bitchy tendencies! Haha. Come back soon, or else I'll have to put up ads in search for a temporary lesbian partner.


Sorry, I do digress. Back to Cocco. So later on when the music changed for the better, Syd and I went up to the small podium and experimented with pole-dancing. Given it's the first time and all, I wasn't very good I think. And then our high-on-alcohol birthday girl dared me and Kunz to each seduce a guy and get him to dance on the podium near the pole with us. She went first, then Kun second, then it was my turn. Oh gosh. I was looking around searching for a decent-looking guy to pull, but couldn't find any. How come they're all so ugly?? (If you're a guy reading this who was at Cocco last night and think you're good-looking, then I didn't see you). Syd in all her gone-ness was putting pressure on me to deliver the deal, so I just gave up on the looks part and searched about for an 'easy' guy. Found one, asked him to dance with me, dragged him up to the podium, and his friends immediately started cheering and teasing him. I made small talks while dancing (didn't touch him and pretended I was engrossed in dancing so that I didn't have to look at his face) and said bye after a couple of minutes. I think I forgot to mention it was just a dare.


Came up to the podium again after a while 'cos nice music was playing (think it was Get Right) and had my second attempt at pole-dancing, this time flying solo. The swinging part was quite fun! But I probably wouldn't do it again in a long time, not the right kind of image I wanna portray.


Also had dance prac before Cocco. Nothing much to say. It was nice having Zhi around but that's about it. Eh, I'm quite sick of being placed at the back all the time, you know. Even though I know Emmelin's positioning is according to height, I can't help feeling that she's got something against me. It is an unreasonable supposition, but my heart can't help feeling it nevertheless. I'm gonna tell G to not watch the musical. I don't want him and his friends to watch it and then see me and think that my dancing sucks because my placing's at the back all of the time. I seem to complain a lot about this but it's something that can't be helped. I do have my pride and I'm also bitchy enough to show attitude during practices because of my dissatisfaction, which was exactly what I did yesterday. It might be immature but it felt darn good to release everything that's been pent up.
