This week I have realized that when you have something to look forward to at the end of the week, school days, no matter how BAD they may be, you'll survive! For example, this week would have been pretty bad with all the tests and a certain malay teacher being extra, extra nasty. BUT the people who sat around me in class will always be able to cher me up. So much so that we even named ourselves the Communist Community. Simply because we share almost everything! Food, laughter and jokes. This community actually comprises of our whole row. It's the largest row in class and we sort of take advantage of that.

It was actually a spur of the moment kind of thing. We were all just talking during recess. Zhi 'An was asking me what I wanted. 'Cos he was gonna give me a little belated birthday treat. I told him that I wanted a nice Belgian Chocolate Latte. And one thing lead to another, the next thing you know, EVERYONE was gonna go down to Junction 8 and have Linner (something like brunch only it's lunch and dinner). It was going to be a mass Communist Community Meeting at Junction 8. All the girls wanted to have dessert at Secret Recipe. I have never been there before but according to Keetha, Diyanah and Gaya, it's desserts are to DIE for. So, I got really curious and wanted to try it out. And so it was settled. On Thursday, the first ever CCM (communist community meeting) would commence.

Thursday came and at first, Diyanah and I were really owrried 'cos the last remedial lesson we had was Asnah's. And we ALL know she always digresses and drags the lesson. We thought we'd be late and miss out on the beginning of the fun. But a MIRACLE happened that day. She actually ended ON THE DOT at 5pm!! Diyanah and I were overjoyed. We immediately rushed out of her class and met up with the rest of the community. The ones who could make it were Keetha, Gaya, Diyanah, Zhi 'An, Akmal and me. We went immediately after school. And as we trooped to Junction 8 at Bishan. We were already starting our crazy jokes. And when we reached J8, we headed to Coffee Bean first to get my delicous Belgian Chocalate Latte. Zhi 'An bought me one! YAYY!! Thanks, Lilly! =) It was so good!! Bought a regular. And while we were waiting for them to make the latte, we were discussing where we should eat and stuff. The girls were insisting on Secret Recipe and the guys had no choice but to agree. Hahaha! We dominate, lah! =P But to Keetha, Gaya and Diyanah's HORROR, Junction 8 took OUT the restaurant and is replacing it with something else. Those three were positively INFURIATED! But seriously, what is up with J8?! They replaced Secret Recipe, Aunt Anne's and MRS FIELDS!! HOW CAN YOU REPLACE MRS FIELDS?!!! It's the most wonderful place for brownies and cookies in the WHOLE universe!! And they changed it into some weird kampong food stalls. Like HELLO?!! Does the people in charge of J8 have taste buds?!

So anyway, after much deliberation, we decided to go and have dessert at Swensen's. We entered the door and sat down at this huge table. Even in the first TWo seconds, we were already laughing 'cos the girls were saying that one of the waiters looked exactly like Ajay but the guys thought that we were referring to this OTHER waiter who had this massive moustache. They were like, "NOO!! He does NOT look anything like Ajay!" and when we realized who they were referring to, we all laughed like crap. The whole of Swensen's was filled with my our voices. We all ordered and took loads and loads of pictures. Here are some of them,





Keetha and her COIT TOWER! And she actually finished it without feeling sick or anything. Way to go, Keetha! =) We're proud of you.





This is my Belgian Chocolate Latte and NUTTY MIGHTY. The lastest sundae creation from Swensen's. Man, it was GOOD!! =P





Gaya, Diyanah and me =)





Gaya, Keetha and me =)








As we sat in two rows opposite each other. Here's my row. Gaya, me and Zhi 'An!





That's the opposite row. Akmal (who only looks THIS happy when he's being photographed), Keetha and Diyanah!





The Two gorgeous models of our Communist Community =P





Gaya and me! =) The two Glam Mamas of our Communist Community

After that, the spasticness started and unfortunately, they were caught on film. It got CRAZY!!





The lovely couple *shudders* Hahaha! They were just trying to creep out the waiters that were haning around our table alot. Which I later realized why. You see, they were afraid that we, young fit kids, would dash out of the door without paying 'cos we sat so close to the door. Then we all made scenarios of what would happen if we actually did it. We realized that Zhi 'An may get stuck at the door, what with his huge water bottle and 10kg bag and file. It'll slow him down. Then, they'll ctahc up to him and we have to speak in our Communist Code, "May day, may day!! Man is down! I repeat, a soldier is down! Switch to plan B!!". Then, according to Plan B, Akmal was supposed to do a strip tease to distract the waiters. And we went on and on and on... Funny shit, lah! I laughed so hard, I could've gotten abs!





Me enjoying my delicoius Nutty Mighty. I love ice-cream! =)





Keetha going crazy! We were all making weird faces at some point.





And the crazy pictures shall continue. However, I think this one's pretty artistic. Don't you think?





I TOLD YOU WE LAUGHED LIKE CRAZY!! Hahaha! =P Man, I look possessed.





Here's Diyanah sprinkling pepper in Keetha's drink. Hehehe!





The spastication can be seen clearly in this blooper shot. Gaya was probably protesting to something one of Diyanah's insult and that would be me, stoning and/or having a brain freeze. This is classic! =P





Keetha and Diyanah are taking a picture while trying to sabotage each other with salt and pepper shakers. Yes, people, salt and pepper shakers can be deadly.





Here's Zhi 'An making kissy faces at Akmal and Akmal cringing in disgust. Hahaha! This is hilarious, lah! Those two put Heath Ledger and Jake Gylanhall to shame!





Here's me trying to pour some ketchup into Gaya's shirt. A failed attempt 'cos she caught me apparently. Trust me, you will never get bored when you hang out with us. =P





We noticed that Akmal has the weirdest expression when he's eating ice-cream. Everyone else would be smiling or at least look like they're enjoying the sundae but NOT Akmal. He'll have this look or pure concentration slash deadpan expression on his face. It's like he's trying to solve a rubricks cube in the sundae with his spoon. Keetha did the most hilarious impression of his, lah!





That's me as I can't believe that my sundae was finished already! I was trying to scoop up every little drop I can possibly get. I paid eight bucks for that thing. I better get every drop I can!





Zhi 'An is never without his precious calculator, I tell you. He was calculating how much exactly everyone had to pay with GST and Service Charge. That's him with the bill. We decided to just let him do his thang. In total, we spent about $72 bucks. *whistles* That's expensive stuff.


All in all, it was one of the best times I've had. We then walked around J8 for a while before going home in troops. I hope we'll get to do it again, this time with the whole row coming to join us. The Communist Community Rocks HARDCORE!!! =D





Love you all! =)
