Well, I'm at home. Its so boring! Everyone back home is visiting one another, gambling, eating, having fun. Have no plans for the day or the next few days until Thursday (when I go to Barcelona) so I think I'll just get a head start on school work, ie. tens of pages of reading for 'User Profiling and Personas', and two sketches for 'How to Draw a Cup of Tea', and probably some research for our project.
Yesterday was pretty great. We went to the city where the Carnaval was held and the atmosphere was spectacular. It was colourful, noisy, crowded, everything!
On the way to the Carnaval. These girls were the weirdos and I was the normal-looking one (coz I didn't have any costume)
At the heart of the party
There was loud music and beer all over!
Inside one of those tents. They were selling beer at Eur20 for 10 cups or something. Madness!
Celebration! I was the only normal looking one there, which actually made me look like the weird one.
Amateur gynae? Nice one..
And one of the funniest one was seeing a really beefy dad wearing a puny skin-tight PINK tutu with fairy wings! Too bad, didn't get a picture of him. He was with his daughter too, bet that's where he stole his costume from.
And outta nowhere, these guys attacked me with some pink hair spray
And admist the choas, I spotted an unattended article. He was entertaining himself with the confetti on the ground in oblivion.
Who's gonna clean up the mess now?
Some kids playing near the public urinal. Yup, its a PUBLIC urinal out in the open.
Here's another one. I'm such a perv!
And after that, we went home and got ready for our Reunion Dinner.
Eight course meal, clockwise from top left: sweet corn soup, omelette + hotdog + vege, omelette + ham + shrimp (cooked by yours truly), bak kwa (brought by yours truly again), salty vegetable thing, mixed vege + cashew nuts, sweet and sour fish or chicken (forgot which) + potatoes, vegetable and finally, rice (contributed by me, again!). Also unseen in this picture 'lou he' and mandarin oranges (which I got from the market at Eur2.50 for 30)
More pictures coming soon!
