As usual, haven't been up to much except celebrating Ruobing's birthday in a way that i would never have done in any normal birthday circumstances.
I queued for 2 hours to get luo zhi xiang's album signed!
No matter how much i like a singer/celebrity/artiste, as much as i do want to meet them, my dislike for crowds precedes any consideration to even think of going. if not for the fact that ruobing is my really really close friend, having spent 4 years together in secondary school and that it was her birthday, AND the fact that the event was at eastpoint, I WOULDN'T HAVE GONE.
Not that i really minded, since my sister (show luo fan extraordinaire) said that he would finish signing all the albums, so we didn't have to queue from the morning to be in front to ensure that we got our albums signed. so we wandered around eastpoint, looking at books and stuff (she's one of the few people that would spend hours in a bookshop with me) till he came and went to queue after his performance.
oh and luckily i bought my album early, cuz those sold at the event cost an extra 5bucks at $30! i should have expected it. i had to buy 3 extra albums for ruobing, my sister and her friend and i only had $80 and had to run to the atm just to fish out the remaining $10 i needed. oh well, take it as money earned to cover the cost of the event.
xiaozhu's fans were mostly female, and i noticed that it is really useful to have a boyfriend during these times, cuz queueing in such a crowd is no joke. you need a boyfriend to buy you food, run your errands, and keep you entertained while you queue.
so that was that. oh, and i cried buckets watching marley and me with audrey and regina during the day. a rare sight, coming from me. i would think it is pretty hard to get an exaggerated reaction from me. nothing really shocks me, and i don't know why. anyone has any idea?
