Magic Fundoshi

Another play being watched again. Magic Fundoshi was a riot, although not half as amusing as Dim Sum Dollies. Got all dressed up as usual. Whoever said that plays in IP is a fashion parade for everyone is true to a large extent. People usually anticipate seeing what others would wear to plays. I know I do, and I enjoy commenting about the ugly things that people put together and the nice things that people pull off.

Met up with Si Hui to go with her to meet some others at bugis for dinner. On the way, we met Tina on the train and we met up with Rachel, who was shockingly the earliest today, and Vanessa at Bugis MRT station. Apparently, Rachel has the record for being the one who is always late. Audrey was supposed to meet us initially, but she had to spend her mom’s birthday with her mom, duh. So it was the five of us and we decided on eating at Swenson after a moment of debating where to dine. Eating is, to me, a social event so naturally we talked and bitched and chatted about random stuff, as usual.

We went around shopping for a while, but it was not long before we had to hustle to make our way to the national library theatre. The play was hard to stomach in the beginning because there was a lot of profound talk going on that was done speedily. I, being the low IQ person that I am, took some time to familiarize myself with what was going on and over time, I understood what was going on. Haha, there were some funny parts. However, I think the funniest parts where those that had the red light flashing. The red light is some sort of self censorship that the company had introduced to warn us of moments where NC16 content would be revealed. I was rather taken aback when there was nudity present in the play. There was the exposure of an actor’s butt. At first I thought that it wasn’t real, since it looked pasty and all. However, over time it occurred to me that it would be quite impossible to create a fake butt. Other nude scenes was the last skit in which there was not one but probably over ten red lights switched on throughout the whole sketch. There was the revelation of three of the male actors in g string, or at least that is what I assumed it to be. It looked like the kind of things that sumo wrestlers wear. The most shocking part of all was the revelation of Emma Yong or Young’s breasts! Her nipples were covered with shiny stuff but besides that, her top was totally revealed. Shocking if I do say so myself.

Stayed at bugis until 11.00 plus. Went to sit at the infamous steps near the MRT station. When some of us had to leave, Yi Xiang, Mark, Nicole and I went to meet Yi rui and a few others who were are Breekos. I don’t really enjoy awkward silences and was quite glad when it was broken after a while. Major bitching session going on before we left to catch the last train home. Got a lift from my mom home and reached home past midnight. Thankfully no policeman went up to me to arrest me for being out after eleven. Haha.
