Why I need to have a pair of Wellies

Why do you need a pair of Wellies?
Because a muddy rave party demands one.

You must be kidding. A rave in Singapore?
Neh. It was in Malacca.

Why there?
Organizers wanted to revamp their image as a state without nyonyas, babas and a crummy red dutch building. Their (unsuccessful) rebranding strategy included luring the new gen with strobe lights, glow sticks and everything neon.

Caught any other Singaporeans there?
Yeah. But I'm not in the habit of dropping names like kutus (not mine) so yeah. A couple of familiar faces here and there.

I still think Malacca's a weird place to have a rave.
Uhuh. The raya decor was still up, there were giant ketupats strung across its entrance and that made me think how ironically fucked it'd be if a guy with booze wished another guy with booze a Happy Eid. Really fucked.

Which acts were great?
I loved Simian Mobile Disco but Futon... the vocalist is just so alluring. And he wore the neon pink earring I nearly bought from Dorothy Perkins.

Did anything stupid?
Nah. Linda went on the buggy with the Blackstrobes guy cause we figured he might get us some free booze. But he didn't. Linda got a free unwanted kiss though. Gross.

Tough luck.
Yeah, oh. Stupidity in question - I bought this halter for the event but forgot to bring tetek tape. And since the top can only be pulled off bra-less... I went about the malls of Malacca looking for tetek tape. Here's how it went.

Fish's Tetek Tape Adventure

Me: Hello. Do you sell nipple tape?
Female Malay sales assistant: Ape? (Cramped eyebrows)
Me: Oh. Ade jual plaster,untuk nak (circles left nipple) plaster ni. (continues circling action)
She: Ah? Oh, yang nak besarkan ye?
Me: Eh, kenape awak bodoh! Ini tak cukup besar ke (Punches her right and left tit. They deflate. Punches again. They explode leaving me in a bloody state with an evil laughter amplifying the gore) Haha. I wished.
Me: Plaster. Ade plaster?
She: Tingkat dua.

That's so whacked gurl!
Yeah, she pointed me to the staionary section. Rather ingenious really, I ended up improvising masking tape. It's cheaper but go slow when taking it off unless you have tetek hair.

Did any other sightseeing?
Neh. Took off on a bus to KL. Am in KL now.

Damn. Why are you not doing any tourist-like stuff then?
Because I hate shopping. (Read: I don't have cash to shop.) And it takes a lot of stamina to shop with Ery. I'd wait for hours as he tries on 10 shirts and then buys all 10 (Read: I don't have cash to shop on my own.) (Re-read: I am a stupid woman for not shamelessly asking him to finance my sprees and I need 10 heels more than he needs 10 shirts anyway.)

Cheap bitch!
