Mardi Gras 2010 was held yesterday. It was a fun and awesome event! (: The theme this year was VINTAGE.
At first, we weren't really looking forward to go to the event. hahas. cause somehow, the organisers forced every class to buy the tickets. Hence, we were like complaining about how the school was unfair. BUT in the end it turned out to be a good thing that they did that. hee hee.
so as the date of the event drew close, us girls start to wonder what we should wear on that day. and it was troubling as most of us do not really have vintage clothings, also, it doesnt seem neccessary/feasible for us to go out and rent costumes like the other class did. hahas and so....everyone somehow decided to dress up on that day. i was also worrying about wad im gonna wear to suit the theme as i didnt have any vintage clothes at all. then, i went home and asked my mum and dad. My dad even asked me to wear my grandmother's flora prints shirt. (of course i rejected immediately!!) at first, it doesnt seem to be any chance for me to find any nice clothing to wear. but after that, my mum suddenly remembered her emerald green dress with big buttons which was TRUE VINTAGE alright. the dress was a gift from my dad. awww so sweet~~ when she brought it out, i was so excited. (: hahas. but i didnt think i dare to wear it out like that. then i found a matching bag( also very vintage) and a old golden spoilt watch. the whole attire was almost complete, just without a pair of shoes that match.
the day before the event, i found that the dress was very looose. :( i wasnt going to be nice if it was that loose. i felt a little dejected. hahas but then i had a great idea. and altered until it fits. ^^ it took me quite awhile though. moreover, the next day was chem test. lols.
then yesterday, everyone was looking forward to it. but the sad thing was that, we all had to go through the boring lessons first. hahas. (like dun have the mood to attend lessons) so after the 'torture' of going throught the lessons in the day, at 3 pm we all rushed home to change for the event at night. during the bus ride home, ernest and aloy was discussing wad to wear. and they agreed on wearing black and white and white and black. hahas but in the end, they didnt yah so, went back home and i found a pair of heels that match and the attire was complete. Meow was so nice, she came over to my place and accompanied me to meet the rest for dinner. Love you meow! (: it was really embarrassing when ppl kept looking at you. but after awhile i got used to it. meow gave me courage. hahahas actually my dress wasnt really very kua zhang, its just really vintage and you wont see anyone wearing the same kind anywhere on the road. and even in school i didnt see anyone wearing similar clothing as mine. it was more like a costume party than vintage costume party. yah there were ppl dressing up as snow white, afro boy, tigger, ghosts, egyptians, and even mario. so funny. yeps. then memorable part of the event: powerbuff boys and mojo joho exclaimation NOO! dress pretty~ hahahas. was happy happy ytd. (:
