In my last post about February, I forgot to mention the 23rd.
i went to the Viterbi ball. it's like a second chance at prom for all the nerds. funny how lots of engineers are South Asian, but when I go to the ball, it's a bunch of Caucasians.
We went to the Avalon in West Hollywood. they kept it a secret until we got there. Supposed to be a very popular and hard to reserve place. I thought it was cool. When I went to the restroom, there's a lady there to show me to the stalls and then after I wash my hands she hands me paper towels. I've never had that kind of service before; it was sweet.
they had a pole there, so i thought to myself,"when else would I have an opportunity to dance with a pole?" answer was probably never...unless i decide to become a stripper or something. So i got me and my friends to dance up there with the pole...it was fun, and i have great pictures :)
then i wanted to get all of our dates to go up. the guys weren't so thrilled about this, but they did it. hahahahahha, and i enjoyed it.
joanna's date must think i'm crazy. because i make him dance with the pole, and then i get curtis to jump off from the platform to be carried by the crowd, and i go around freaking. yes, so that's his first impression of me: a crazy girl :)
that's also when i decided, perhaps freaking is not so fun anymore. it's not like in high school when i danced with a bunch of friends and we all cheered each other on. maybe it's looked badly upon, and it's just awkward... well i can't wait to go clubbing with yune.
the lady at the bar gave me a hard time from getting alcohol. even though i'm 21 and i showed her my ID. she figured i borrowed my asian friend's ID. well she didn't stop me from getting drunk. I had sex on the beach. It was fruity (kinda like peach?) and enough to do the job.
They even had a mr. and mrs. viterbi (basically prom king and queen). and i happen to know them both, not personally though...then again, probably everyone knows them...hence they are king and queen.
I went with my ex-bf. it makes it all kinda bittersweet, but mostly sweet because I had a good time. reminds me of how sweet it was when we were together, and i wore that dress to his sister's wedding. oh well, all is in the past now.
it was interesting. the guy i liked, and the girl he liked went to the ball together. they were like a power couple...or at least admired by us... i wish i could have that girl's body.
i wanted to buy this black and white dress from macy's because it makes me look slim. and i'm glad i didn't because 3 different girls wore that exact same dress at the ball. and they all look great, but i like being different :)
too bad they never played slow songs....i like slow dances.
i wish i could be as rich as viterbi. rich enough to have millions of dollars as change.
