Well, prom has come and gone. It was a new thing for me since dunman high didn't have prom back then, and I guess it's rather interesting.
Checked in at the hotel at 2pm and was super pissed initially. It's amazing how some people can be so irresponsible and selfish when others are actually doing you a favour. No words of thanks or acknowledgements and tons of last minutes problems. Since, it's over now, I wouldn't want to be reminded of it anymore. Anyway, the hotel is rather cool because I bet 90% of you reading wouldn't have checked in at hotel 81 before. The best thing about it is that it's bloddy cheap. Initially I thought it was $109, but turned out Singaporeans got a discounted price of $89. Compareed with Ritz, which was around $400-$500, this was really a killer, since all the hotel served as was a place for changing and minimum sleeping. Weirdly enough, I don't have any photos of the hotel currently but it's not as bad as many people think, except for the fact that there was hair of previous occupants on the bed and floor. Well, s41 and s23 had rooms there too.
Got changed and reached Ritz at about 6+. Started taking pictures with my class. I think there must be so much discussion about prom that mine would probably pale in comparison. However, the essential points are 1. the food is lousy, 2. the emcee is weird, 3. the bands suck totally. The food they served was barely enough to fill a cavity in my teeth, let alone my stomach. The servings were really tiny and the standard was not better than any random restaurant out there. The emcee was kind of great in the beginning but sort of became a jackass towards the end. I guess he thought he was funny in many occasions, when many people found him rather rude and weird. What the hell, no one can remember his name! The bands were a major problem, especially the first one. I think the singer totally screwed up each and every song he sang, including champagne supernova and welcome to the black parade, my favourite song. Even My Chemical Romance cannot do a good job in live performances, and he dares to try it??? He was basically screeching throughout the song and I was glad I was busy taking photos then. Lucid Vapour and 4 Toads were about the same, unimpressive. Probably the daniel band did a better job and staked their place as winners of musicfest earlier this year. Ok enough of grumbling, time for some photos, but not all, it'll drain everything outta me.
