It's MARDI GRAS again!^^
A festival organised by teejaycee once every 2 years. The prev time was in 2006, but i missed out on the majority of the activities then cos i'd sprained my ankle and sat at my CCS food stall for the whole night with Mei ling who happened to be injured from a fall. We poor things!
So this time round, i figured out that if i dun go, i wont wanna go back in future. Cos there's fewer familiar people and things around in the sch as the time goes by. So the nostalgia isnt there anymore. Like my pri sch, it looks totally alien to me now, with all the new buildings...
Went with Samarx and Xiuzhen..
Didnt bring camera that day as it was with my bro.. missed taking pictures of all that great costumes.. So i koped some pics off FB. From Stephanie's FB acct. Though she doesnt know me (but the whole sch population knows her) and i doubt she will find my blog, i thought i should give her some credit for taking and uploading the pics =p
Our dear tee jay tutors..
Hard to believe unless u see it right?
Mr Erwin (how to spell his name??) donned a super cute tiger suit! Complete with a long tail on the back & a headdress.
This one should be a student..
The outfit is cool yeah, erhmm but i cant say the same about his posture and facial expression. Don't quite fit with that outfit lorh~
I spotted several students holding those punk/gothic lolita dolls in their arms.. Very cool neh!
Only saw them once, they will look super damn cool if they were to dress alike with the dolls they have in their arms.
That's a tutor, but under all that white makeup, i cant tell who is it..
Quite interesting and daring outfit~~
The big white round shoes are so CUTE!!!
The green mask's from a certain Jim Carrey movie, i cant remember which.. cos he made so many comedies~
Quite a lot of people liked the bomb head and joker hat..
There are many many other interesting outfits.. Like the 3 sailormoon in outfits of 3 different colours, the cutest couple wear being The Flintstones, they even had a mobile 'car' of their own (remember Flintstones' type of vehicle?? People sitting or rather standing inside and walk along to 'propel' the vehicle? Haha might as well just walk together) But the idea to dress up as them is so darn cute lor^^
One guy had a bright orange wig, i dunno who's he trying to be.. but the loud hair colour certainly got many people's attention. The Bruce Lee wannabe in a bright yellow jumpsuit with black stripe looked cute too~ There's also Darth Vader and Neo from The Matrix hanging around the school too!
Feather queen, fluffy wings, little genies, Hogwarts uniform, kimono, han2 fu2 (korean traditional wear), lolita, royal princess, gladiator, magician, panda head...
Those gone bonkers would probably like the Grape, Strawberry and Watermelon suit (YES! U really become and look like a roly-poly strawberry when u don the bulky suit!.. wonder whose idea was that to rent such kawaii outfits)
For those on low budget, like a teejay guy whom i spotted... Super low budget one lorh!!!
Really!
Hmm.. what he did?
HE WORE A TEE JAY SKIRT.
Just borrow from a not so slim classmate will do.
Quite cheapskate hor? Haha.. but not bad for coming up with the idea and daring to don it~
Tutors again~
Click to enlarge the pics to see who's who in there!~
Many HODs in there...
In other words, the gathering of the da4 pai2s..
Many people wondered who's the tutor beneath all that big hair, big shades and loud clothes..
He's none other than my J1 Civics tutor Mr Kao! haha~
3 years ago, many girls said that our tutor's the best looking among all the J1 CTs.. =D
But too bad la, he's already taken~ Hahahah..
It takes alot of courage and confidance to carry off this outfit. And he gamely posed for many pictures with students too^^
Fairy sprinkling some golden dust~~~
Aiyah no photoshop to add in the effects =x
Seen many juniors there.. And some old sch mates.. But as for the /05 batch, quite few of them turned up~ Only saw Kar Keat from my old 25/05 class. Sad wor..
Surprisingly saw Clover there (jian4 gui3 ah!) yeah that's what we said to each other when we met, didnt know she's turning up & vice versa. Saw Jia yi, Fiona, Angelina, Yan ning, Shi fang, Nessa, Sze sze, Angeline, Kathleen, Sin yee, Jessica, Pak, Sadia, Sonia, AJ, Lincoln, Desmond, Bei yi and many more!!~
The three of us went to the food stalls at arnd 930pm to get cheaper food, cos they will definitely lelong the food before the carnival draws to an end. Hehs.. Knew it from experience.
Each of us have $2 food coupons, included in the $7 entrance fee (inflation sia! it wasnt that expensive back then)
Got 2 brownies for $1, 1 box of spaghetti and 1 box of fried rice (buy one get one free) for $1 only (woahs! where to find? it originally sold for $2 per box), cups of ice cream at $0.50 each.
Then went back to get another box of spaghetti cos it tasted yummy =D
But we couldnt possibly finish 2 boxes again so i bargained to buy a box for $0.50. Then a girl came along with a trayful of sausages (going for 3 for $1), when i said i only have $0.50, she replied 2 for $0.50. Yeahs! So i ate a lot that night~ So full!
And it's so qiao3, i met Kar Keat at PR interchange and we took the same bus home. Though we just live in the same area, it had been a year ever since i last saw him. Hehe..
Cloud thinks Mardi Gras 08 is good but dun think she will return for Mardi Gras 2010
