at first we were suppose to meet up at starbucks, the one via collins. Unfortunately lib was stuck at PT traffic (PT: public transport). raz then texted me to ask whether i wanna hang out - being living in the city and all that, and i told her to join me and lib at starbucks, via collins of course. Time was around 2.30 in the afternoon, and the sun was hot.
Raz arrived earlier than lib, since she was still stuck at PT traffic all the way down at Blackburn. So raz and i just got drinks from starbucks and walked our way to fed square, cause she said that her sis mentioned a few good art shows being displayed. We weren't there for long til lib rang me up and said that she's reached. By the way, while i was in the gallery gift store, i found a book titled 'ABC men's fashion" & "Custom Kicks", two very awesome books. Just wondering if i should get the "Custom Kicks" for myself and the "ABC men's fashion for ivan. ("Custom Kicks" is all about the wicked rad laced up sneakers with awesome designs.)
Not to waste time (cause lib got there by say, 3.30.), me and lib chilled at the fed square cafe (don't remember the name of it) and started discussing about the directorial needs for the play "Metamorphosis" that we're working on as our assessment for theatre studies. We ordered drinks of course and lib got this sweet looking chocolate drink. First a huge dob of chocolate ice cream was plunged into the glass, later on chocolate syrup was added, then the milk. That's not the average chocolate drink you see everyday let me tell ya that. Me on the other hand, went looking at the beverage menus. There was 'bloody marry', 'flying II', 'japanese slippers'....blah blah blah. Read the ingredients and felt like 'flying II' was a better choice to go with. It was gin and lemon juice with sparkling juice, also there was some other ingredient but i just can't get it into my head to recall it. It's a nice drink, very refreshing. A strawberry was topped on the glass which was just lovely on valentines day don't you think? lol
moving on now. We finished off our discussion not long after raz joined us at the cafe after having a little tour round the gallery. She tells me that it's good so guess i'll check it out next weekend. Lib got hungry, which later on got contagious, thus raz and i started to feel that craving of edible chemicals slowly digesting down to our spacious belly. We hanged at the steps of fed square for a bit to discuss about dinner and finally we came to a conclusion to have burgers at Grill'd. Once we got there, we decided to take away and hang by the state library since the day was turning out fine with the cool breeze. At Grill'd, they ask for your name as you place an order so they won't mess up the orders. In between that, i don't know what happen, it was either the guy at the counter has a spelling disorder or the dude who served me my order has got the verbal defect. I hear raz's name pronounced as "NARA", fortunately for lib, he got it right. Then i anticipated the awesome burger i'll be getting and this is when my life just crushed into a million pieces. My identity is now confirmed as raided and dumped. The dude called out "Michael". "MICHAEL"! Like what the fiddle-pop is your problem? (fiddle-pop: fuck) Can you not read? That was emberressing, raz and lib just busted their morphine tubes and started laughing mad. My confidence level just decreased into a percentage of 10%.
I'm just gonna forget that EVER happened to me. We got our butts to the state library and starting sinking our teeth into the burgers. Lib had to rush off home cuz her brother was all alone since their parents had gone out. Raz and i on the other hand went strolling round melbourne city. We had fun conversing random topics by the benches opposite the Myers mall. Walked by swanston and a boutique was still open -"Episode". I spotted a sweet black strapless dress with baby rose prints on it. Sadly, they didn't have my size, and i'm sure size 14 isn't my size. But we continued browsing through the store and found some cool fabrics. They also sell mario action figures and cute cuddly dolls with lovely floral print fabrics. These things don't come cheap actually, probably 30AUS a piece for the necklace, which says "Pop" with a balloon right by it. I found a top with hearts and aces which was kinda my style, unpredictable and funky. Had a hard time deciding whether or not to get it, but in the end, i had to give in to retail therapy. Got the top, i'm happy, we're happy, we go walk by the yarra bridge. I've never pictured the river bank to be that captivating. Things felt wrong when we got to the greens, as there were couples cuddling at every possible spot we see so we had to leave that awkward situation. But the scenery was nice that evening. The sun was setting and it had a really attractive orangy, dark evil sense to it. And so i took a snap of it. Photography is just my thing, you should know.
Got back home about 8.30 in the evening, which was then that raz realized she'd better get going in case she misses the train or even get back late at night when it's all dark and dangerous on the streets. I wanted to send her off but she refused. She started rushing off when I'm almost close to getting ready to go with her. She ran for the elevator and wouldn't open the hallway entrance until the lift came about. She got on it and started attacking the "close" button for the elevator. I couldn't get to her, so she managed to succeed in letting me stay back. I'm just worried and as a friend i wanna make sure that things are going safe. That was pretty much my day on valentines day. Other than finding things amusing with people getting roses and people GIVING roses, we've managed to survived the utter isolation of being single chicks about town.
