Last night was unforgettable. Despite being engulfed in thick smoke and having throbbing ears because of the close proximity to the speakers, the atmosphere and mood was perfect. 'The UnXpected' was rocking the house down at Wala Wala last night and so were we!
Earlier on at school, I was practically dying from brain malfunction and excessive loss of blood (read: i was coughing blood) - it was terok Thursday once again and I was struggling to make it through the 4 tutorials and that irritatingly tough biochemistry lecture. And did I mention? My lecturer had to prolong my misery by insisting on re-drawing every mechanism on the notes which resulted in the lecture ending 15 minutes later. 15 minutes of coughing blood is enough to take a person's life.
It was only until later that night, under the influence of smashing live band music, wonderful company and red wine that I mananged to ease my nerves and loosen up. We were like a bunch of crazy school kids (let me see who: Joanne, Tresa, Jacq, Fi, Yan, Ren Chun, Jack, Bernard, Bernard, Zhen Hua, Andrew, Kairen, Ping Guang, Weizhong, Simian, Eric, Rayner, Zhicheng, Dahui, Yanran, Yeling, Christine and probably lots more) shaking to the music while everyone else seemed contented being stationary with their drinks where they stood or sat. I still find it amusing how people can NOT want to move to the groove when there's music like that playing. Getting me to sit still in situations like these is like asking me to go for a $10 haircut. Meaning, impossible.
Some of the 47 guys seemed a little listless and bored initially I was worried they were missing doing their hand-signals thingy on their favourite Mambo nights. But soon the mood caught up with them and they were clearly enjoying themselves too. I guess we sort of added in a little of the clubbing atmosphere to the place last night and we were probably the largest, loudest, rowdiest and hippest group there.
It was also good to see Brandon again since don't know when. The last time we met he still had LOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNGGGGGGG (read:VERY long) hair. Last night, he was sporting a new haircut and a goatee! Fresh new look. I like! For the sake of those who are still clueless, Brandon's the drummer for The UnXpected and he's one talented and passionate musician. Sweet guy with a great sense of humour and he has some really interesting insights to certain issues. Ok, this is beginning to sound like a Friendster testimonial.
My throat is a little sore from the screaming over the loud music last night but I guess it's all worth it. Now it's back to work for me - thank goodness for nights like these so my life doesn't seem so mundane. Hello there, me, myself and I.
