Family Reunion

Today was an epic day with Nina-bitchy and Hoe Dong. our agenda? to eat waffles.
but it turned out to be quite an adventure. and i totally got my city experience.
it was a very memorable day, where every moment was a crackup. which therefore means, this is going to be long.

the day started off with me in bed.

time: 9.01
i was sleeping zzzzz and then i felt someone nudge me awake. then i heard laughing. i turn around and ninas there watching me sleep =-=. so i turn back around to keep sleeping and hten i realised OMFGGG NINAS ALREADY HEREEE. so i ZOOOOOMED out, peed, brushed me teeth, drank milk, got changed, got my bag, money whilst she sat there patiently..and made my bad (TY:D).

then our day began.
(OMGG OGMGOGMOMGOOG ON THE TRAIN, THERE WAS A ROBERT PATTINSON LOOKALIKE. and when i say lookalike i mean LOOK-EXACTLY-THE-SAME-ALIKE. he had a smaller face but he had the same shades, the same hair, same jaw, same lips, same nose.)
we arrived at melbourne central clock to meet up with ol' granny. and i saw something REALLLLLLLY HAHAHAHAHAHAH AWW AHAHA
you know how the clock has birds coming out of it at every hour? well it was 10 and it was SOOO FUNNNNNY.
cause nina and i were waiting in front of the telstra store and i looked at it for a while and there was NOOO ONE INSIDE. IT WAS DARK AND EMPTY. but then when the birds startedd CHEEPING CHIPCHIP all of a sudden THE LIGHTS CAME ON, AND THESE PEOPLE FROM INSIDE THE STORE SUDDENLY CAME RUNNING OUT AND OPEND THE DOORS.
it was sooo funny.
its like "honey the birds are cheeping! lets open up!!"
HOW CUTEEEE. regulating your store according to the birds cheeping. HAHAHAHHA their clock is the MC CLOCK!! imagine closing down. HAHAHAHHA
well anyways that was a sign that hoedong was late so we hit off to borders until she came.

time: 10.20
we started heading off to eat at the waffle place. and omg the store looked pretty run down, but there was a really pretty french boy serving. at first glance i was just like mehhhhhh until he spoke french. then omggg he suddenly looked so handsome.
well the waffles were delicious. and we sat on green benches to furthur enhance our tourist-like souls. yes thats right, GINGERS HAVE SOULS!

afterwards we headed off down the street (where i mistook flinders street (?) for chinatown) and stumbled into a random plaza....with japanese stores and a cooking house of freaky barbies. we saw Japanese paper. Jonina: psh i could make that! Give me a printer!
coming out of the other side, we furthur ambled around and i bought a random skirt, becuase the weather was too hot and humid for jeans. and i got changed in the change rooms LOL.(jonina went "psh i could make that!) feeling much cooler, we went into this weird european-like area, where the tiles are black and white (i dunno where it was). weaving in and out of the random stores (saw babushca dolls: jonina"psh i could make that!) , we came across this place that sells witchcraft, candles and dead cats. ok not the cats. there was a wheel of fortune sort of thing there in this spooky chapel-like room so jonina was like LETS TRY IT. so we did (with nina clinging onto the steps superstitiously afraid LOL)
we had to drop a coin in a slot, ask a question, spin the wheel (jo: psh i could make that!), and whatever number comes up, we get a piece of paper with that number. pretty clueless about what to ask we decided to all ask "WILL I GET A BOYFRIEND" cause we're that desperate (any guy out there interested please call 1800 get-a-life). i got the number 13 (UNLUCKY MUCH?)
and my fortune tell was pretty shit. it basically told me to LET GO OF MY PAST, get over myself and the people i know. and go through a "rebirth". well eff you! my spell was to LIGHT A PURPLE CANDLE FOR 7 DAYS. =-=
jonina's basically said shes gonan have hot steamy sex iwth everyone and make babies. she gets to light 4(?) candles (jo: psh i could make that!).
nina's suggested her to become a loner for her prince charming will come. she got TWO pretty candles.
I GET ONEEEE!! FOR A WHOLE WEEEK. WHAT IS THIS? I CAN AFFORD MORE YOU KNOW. T_T

but spells and cane toads aside, i went up an elevator (by myself :O) and saw a bridal store. running down to the girls we decided TO FAKE A WEDDING TO TRY ON THE DRESSES. it was an impulsively stupid idea but hey we were bored. we decided none of us could be the bride. we were too young, too stupid. and we were too old to be flower girls. so we settled with bridesmaids. our profile of hte bride was a 24 yr old Vanessa, who is Jonina's sister. and we awkwardly walked in.
THE DRESSES WERE SOOO PRETTTTY!!! we recieved a welcome by the storeowner. which was when we stuffed up
HER "hi girls looking for a dress?"
"yes Jonina's sister has a wedding soon. we're bridesmaids"
HER "ohhh ok. you should bring her in some time...."
"yeah we're still looking around first"
HER "oh whens the wedding"
"......................um its still a while *GIGGLE"
NINA "yeah we're just overly excited *GIGGLE"
HER "um ok. we'll just get our assistant to help you with measurements"
*uh oh*
so we quickly ignored her comment and walked ot the dresses. but she came back and was talking about how itll take 3 months nad getting measurements etc. so we left around 5 minutes later... and laughed out nuts off outside.

then we decided to go in the elevators. and THE ELEVATOR WAS CLEARRR SO WE COULD SEE THE MALL. i turned to tqake a quick snap of Nina nad Jonina but the elevator already opened. so we clicked the top floor. BUT THENNNNN i wanted a photo with Nina so we clicked hte bottom floor and tok a snap. BUT THENNNNN the elevator opened to soon so we clicke dup and took a photo. clicked down then took a photo. until Jonina saw a secuiry guard coming so we had to leave our dear elevator and leave hte mall...and laughed our nuts off outside. he must have seen the elvator going up then down and up and down and up and down and up and down. =-=

time: 12.45
i had my first Boost experience. Berry Crush kids size! and i couldnt even finish it. so much liquid and pulp! but it was nice.
we reached Chinatown. with no real purpose there, we walked through to ...some store with asian stuff. where i bought and gave Jonina her present. TAEYANG AND SNSD. PACKAGE DEAL. 9 GIRLS 1...MAN.
after some more fooling around we decided to do something sensible...go to Myer and try on their expensive-no-way-on-earth-am-i-buying-that clothes. we had three dresses each, but due to the longass queuelines for hte change rooms, we had to leave cuase we were taking too much time. Nina found a dress though so we were productive!! on a side note, we touched a $7200 military jacket. (jo: psh i could make that!) A thrilling experience indeed. :D
we checked out the Mac makeup where we were welcomed by an astonishingly flashy make-up-endorsing "man" and i sugar coated myself, with PRICERY PERFUME. HEAPS AND HEAPS ALL LAYERING ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER. equating to the shittest smell ever. it was a very harry potter experience (long story). then we left myer...and laughed our nuts off outside.

time 1:15
we somehoe ended up in the State Library in the Games room with the kids. and we made a very beautiful picture! which ill upload when i get uncapped.
until we got kicked out. KIDS ONLY
"do you guys have a kid with you?"
jonina's mishearing "do you guys have a charger?" =-=
so we moved. and then explored the top floors of the library. where i accidently flahsed to a security camera and Jonina studied my toenail.
the displays were actually really interesting. like, the was this headless doll. and a barbie all chopped up. and a hairy emu's feet, dead rats (a lot) and the incoherent mumblings of a dead man's letter.

time: god knows what
after Jonina "refreshed" herself, she got hungry. so we headed to MC'S foodcourt (my first time) and ate and talked and ate. then we decided to explore some more. a few shops after, we came to the newly built Forever New, with the grand stairs and funky music. lol. here, i was called a "fob", Jonina was called a "bee" and Nina...escaped criticism :D. i was also inspired to find my perfect blingy clutch to use as my everyday wallet. CUASE I LOST MINE. im still looking. im currently using a swisspers clutch. cause im that stylish. yes thats right, a swisspers clutch, they exist. after sifting through a lot of $100+ clothing, re-enacting a lovers reunion, and Ninna's failed attempt to open a clutch, it was time for Jonina to go. *BUM BUM BUM!!!!*
but on our walk back, we bumped into Typo and spent another half hour or so there, looking at birthday cards, looking at "wankers",self-insulting "proverbs" and likening ourselves to them, drawing connections and drawing similiarities to our own face...

time: 4:30ish
goodbyes and Nina and I boarded our trainback.

time: 5:....
Arriving at Fairfield station, there was still 2o minutes till our bus came so we decided to fulfil Nina's childhood dream, a dream she had clutched onto since she was a mere zygote! a dream that only she can conquer! A DREAM, THAT WILL HAVE THE WORLD ON ITS FEET! APPLAUDING! SUPPORTING HER EVERY STEP!! URGING HER! YOU CAN DO IT!!! ok im overdoing it. (but it was Nina's dream)
what we did was pretty amazing in my eyes.
the bus that was due in 20 minutes was on the opposite side of the road. casuse it stil had numerous stops to go before it reached the other side of the road (which we were at) we boarded it!! it was a mere coincidence that it was the same bus though. but it was fun!! we saw a polite man!

time: 5.24 and 23 seconds (or was it...?)
Nina got offf at her stop, and I, one stop after.

PHEEEEEE-EW
it was a very tiring day, but i didnt realise i was tired till i was home.

looking back, we realised that
no plan = THE BEST plan
we planned to go to eat waffles, but that wasnt even the highlight of our day. it was just a warmup.
we didnt go to any omg-wowwww places, there was no scenery, no sparkly vampires and no free food. in fact, a hobo couldve been where we went. or a whole group of them! but we still managed to make the most out of the most mundane things.
and its made me realised that fun isnt in where you are, what youre doing or what youve bought, its in who youre with and basically ANYTHING that makes you laugh your nuts off... like that ugly dress over at Wayne Cooper.
