What a peculiar day, I must say! I thought so, my friends knew so, and Tim (the one whom I described the “incidents” to) said so.
But first, some “normal” things.
At uni
Normality
So my 2 week summer course ends today with a 40% website presentation and a 30% final exam. Of course, even though it was a general education course, I was still pretty worried about the whole day.
So I got to class, ready yet nervous for the presentation, thinking that we had to explain every code that we used for the website and all. Turned out I had nothing to worry about at all! -_- He told groups of four to log into the school computers, load our sites and kicked us out of the room. Literally. After marking, he told us to come inside, grab our medium if we used one and then kicked us out of the room once again. Easy.
So we went to the law library, into the seminar rooms so we could “study”. As all study sessions proceed, we ended up cracking Russell Peters jokes, talking about some really random stuff, snacking, reading the papers (uni offers round 1 out today, how exciting!)… and towards the end of the “study session”, realised that we were all screwed! Well, not Andy, but the rest of us were!
Because the class was pretty big, the teacher decided to split the group into 2 to take the test. Julie, Huy, Sharan and I barely made the last 4 spots for the first test session! Phew!
Skip skip skip.
The test was pretty hard >.< Yep, a gen ed final exam was actually hard! I mean, what the hell? Some of the stuff we didn’t even learn about! -_- GAH!
Outing: Food
Weird incident 1
Meanwhile, outside was raining. Rats, why did it have to rain on my birthday? It hasn’t in how long? I don’t know. But longtime!
But seeing that it was my birthday, we decided to double date with Julie and Huy.
So first off, to eat!
Ichiban boshi!
We arrived and there was a huge line. Huy wanted to go somewhere else to eat but I didn’t want to because:
- I was too bothered
- It was raining: hard to get around
- I like eating at Ichiban Boshi~~
So we asked one of the waitresses (who looked European but spoke fluent Japanese!) how long it would be till we get to go in. 20 minutes. Ok, 20 it is!
So after checking out Kinokuniya (a huge bookshop), we came out to wait with the guys. Then… something weird happened.
Some girl and her friends walked past our group, and she kind of stared straight at me, talking to her friend and all. All of us took notice of this but decided to ignore that.
Andy: It might be because she thought she knew you from somewhere.
And still, the staring continued.
Julie: Could she make it anymore obvious?!
And then suddenly, I saw her eyes make a dart to my chest area, staring ever so intently.
Huy: Maybe she’s looking at your badges…
So again, this was ignored, and her head stuck out a tiny bit, eyes still at my chest. At this stage, I was starting to feel a bit… uncomfortable.
Andy: Maybe she has bad eyesight…?
Her eyes wandered up and down a tiny, then fixes on my chest.
Huy: Man, if I wanted to check out your badges, I wouldn’t full stare or anything!
…
Waitress: Number 68.
Me: That’s us!
And I took my things and hurried the heck out of there. Okay, that was “Incident #1″. The meal was great, with Andy drinking a lot of water while finishing up my “very hot ramen”.
Outing: Shopping
Weird Incident 2
We got out of the building, and still it was raining. Julie said to go Myer, so we did. Somehow, we ended up at the lingerie section. Huy wanted to go to the games section so I shoo-ed Andy to go with him while we girls had some “alone time”. We did actually, but with one more person… And this is the beginning of “Incident #2″…
Me and Julie were checking out hot hot bras when a saleslady came around and started introducing all the products to us, telling us what they are made of and how “spectacular” and “stunning” they all are.
Saleslady: The change rooms have very long lines so when you both are ready, I’ll pop you into our special change room.
So Julie and I must’ve grabbed 6 items each, giggling about how to escape from the saleslady because man, have you seen the price tags on some of these? And I know I definitely can’t afford things this much!
Ready!
Saleslady: So I’ll pop you in first, Wendy (she got my name wrong but oh well, I’ll be Wendy for a while)
Me: Oh it’s a single change room?
Saleslady: Yeah.
Me: How about we go in together Julie?
Julie: *drags me into the room, pulls the curtain close*
Inside…
Me: Man, this one costs $190!
Julie: Yeah, but they’re hot. I’m going to try this one first.
Me: Maybe I’ll try this one. *Whispers in her ears* How are we gonna escape?!
Julie: Don’t worry. Hey, reckon she thinks we’re lesbians?
Me: *looks in mirror* Yeah actually.
Curtain opens.
Shock.
Covers up.
Saleslady: Oh WOW, this one really pushes up your breast, Julie. See how it gives you that lift?
Me: Yeah, it really does Julie. Looks good.
Julie: Yeah shite!
Saleslady: And the red looks absolutely spectacular on you, Wendy.
Me: I like it actually.
Saleslady: Now hurry and try these one on, girls. *points to see-through red lace bra, disappears out of room*
Me: That was weird!
Julie: Mm. *starts changing* Can you turn around while I change into this one?
Me: Yeah. *hangs around, too embarrassed to try anything*
Saleslady: *pops in* Hi Julie and Wendy, how are you girls doing?
Julie: *covers*
Saleslady: Wendy, why aren’t you changed? Oh wow! Look at you Julie. Oh come on, don’t be shy, we all have breasts.
Julie: But my nipples are showing. *uncovers* Oh wait, you can’t see them much.
Saleslady: So what do you think?
Julie: Yeah I like it.
Saleslady: Now hurry and change into this *indicates to the see-through black lace one and disappears behind curtain*
By the looks of this, makes me wonder if we had a choice anymore? So anyway, by now, we started changing quickly and freely in front of one another before she pays an early visit…
Saleslady: Oh WOW, you both look very stunning! BOTH of you should be advertising for this! So what do you think?
Julie: Definitely like the black more then the red.
Me: Yeah, I agree with her. And I like this too.
Okay, this goes on for at least another 15 minutes with many “you look stunning” or “this is so HOT on you” (and the like) before we both finished changing into all the clothes we took in. Andy called to see where we were so I told them to wait for us outside the lingerie section. So much for being lesbians now…! (Although I am bisexual)
Saleslady: So what do you think, girls?
Julie: I like the black, not the other. *sees the boyfriends coming back*
Me: Me too, I’m just showing him.
Man, she seems either quite:
- Keen on checking out breasts or
- A very persistent (read: pushy) salesperson.
But they most likely don’t get commission, so I don’t see what they point was.
And we just hung around, the four of us. I think the saleslady must’ve took the hint because she went into the change rooms to serve another lady, leaving us to decide.
Plonk.
RUN!!!
And that was how we escaped.
That was fun!
Evening
Dinner
After, I got home and freshened up a bit before going to have family dinner to celebrate our birthdays (Brandon and I have birthdays on the same day and month). We had some very delicious seafood, took some photos and then went home feeling satisfied.
That night…
Chatting
I explained the whole story to Andy. “I think she’s a lesbian.” he says.
And then I repeated the story to Tim to have this said, “Yep, definitely a lesbian. You could have asked her for an orgy and got her fired!”
After all, I thought it was because of my new hairstyle… or the outfit I was wearing… Which led Tim to one conclusion, “You’re attracting the wrong gender with the haircut.”
Sounds flattering.
But I don’t think so.
So there you have it, my very interesting 20th birthday.
