OH MY GOSH.Today was
beyond awesome.
Funny, even!
So... I woke up at like 9am, I was supposed to meet Lily, Sal & Hakim @ Pasir Ris MRT Station then we'll make our way to Plaza Sing. Sure, it was a little awkward at first but then soon after, we acted like we were best friends! Haha! Sal & Hakim kept on bickering like an 'old married couple' <- Lily's words. We found out that Hakim was actually Sal's classmate. He was just there to take photos/videos. He wasn't even a fan, lol! But I think at the end of the day, we managed to convert him ( think) o_o Oh well, I can't even convince a classmate of mine to do such a thing. Yep, there's a spark right there.
The 4 of us talked about the randomness of stuff omg. Haha. Hakim's camera was his 'baby' apparently (it was a Canon 40/50/60 whatever SLR cam) - he named it Laura. I was like "Who names there camera? Pfft." Then Lily was like "Jen! I do!" Then I looked at her and said "No, wait! You're supposed to be supporting me!" Lol, then she said "Oh. Oh fine. Yeah! Who names their camera? Pfft!" Hahaha. Hakim's really sarcastic. And funny. Like really. Hmm, like Kyle! He has this American accent which is kinda awesome haha. So we finally reached Plaza Sing. We went to Starbuck's cause Sal told everyone to meet there. So we walked around... looking for people... we all wore white anyway (cause it was David's tour colour! Haha!). Then we walked past this girl (she was wearing white) and the 4 of us laughed caused we really don't know whether she saw there for the gathering. It was Eunice, apparently! The one who made all of this possible! She recognised me from my picture @ AF. She was the one who pre-ordered and everything!
We went inside Starbucks to chill cause we had about 3 more hours until the very first stock comes. We waited for the other to come too. Sal, Hakim & Lily bought Caramel Frappucinos and we just 'bonded' haha. More people came. Hazel, Kitty, Diana, Ian, Clara, Juliette, Weiyan & her friends... Hazel schools in MJC! Lily and I were like " *gasp* We live near there!" She had a paper today. Lily & Diana skipped school just to come! Lol, I love them.
After all the intros, we went inside Plaza Sing and into KFC to eat. We took like 30 min(?) to settle ourselves down cause we wanted tables that were right next to each other. No one wanted to buy anything to eat but in order to stay there, you must buy something. In the end, 3/4 of us bought foodstuff. So we were just all chatting, dissing Miley Cyrus, gushing, eating our cheese fries... the radio was playing in the background. 913FM I think. Then I said "Wouldn't it be awesome if "Crush" started playing?" and Lily, Diana, Kitty & Eunice (we were all in one table) were like "Gosh, yeah!" We were taking pics and stuff... minding our own business. Suddenly, Diana squealed! I was like "What? Why?" Then she said "THE RADIO! OMG "CRUSH" IS PLAYING!" Hahaha. Gosh! Everyone stopped then we heard
cause the possibility that you would ever feel the same way about me and all of us screamed! Lmfao! Everyone in KFC looked at us like were crazy! By then there were like more than 14 of us already. After that excitment, more people came! Yasmin & Nora (Older Archies! about 30+?), Shikin, Lydia...

We still had an hour left before the stock came so Lydia shared her mags. Then Diana & Lily were like "We're gonna go down to Fairprice to buy Honey Bunches of Oats cereal!" Haha. David's favourite cereal. So I followed them. We found it! It was so expensive omg. $7 for a box of cereal. I didn't buy, only Liana & Lily did.

We went back to KFC and Lily let everyone taste it haha! Everyone just chilled there for a while then Sal said that maybe we should go check Sembawang Music now to see if the albums are there. So we went up and up and up to the third floor. Diana and Lily ran inside and asked the cashier. Apparently, the stocks haven't come yet so everyone waited outside of the Sembawang Music for it. It was getting pretty boring haha cause it was sooo long! We hanged around, talk here, talked there. But we went down again to Plaza Sing entrance to take group photos so that was pretty amusing. Hakim was the photographer so he used Laura (you know, his super nice camera) and 7 other cameras from people haha. We went up again after that and waited outside Sembawang Music again.
Then suddenly, there was this uncle. He was pulling like 3 boxes of stuff and rolls of paper on top of the boxes - and was heading towards Sembawang Music. Someone shouted "OMG IS THIS IT?!" Everyone screamed like hell! The uncle was so shocked haha he almost ran inside! Some started hyperventilating, and followed the uncle inside! Hahaha. Lily, Ian, Sal, Hakim and I stayed outside and were like "We don't know them..." Then we heard ripping of scotch tape and Lydia shouting from inside "FALSE ALARM! IT WASN'T THE ALBUM!" Lol. Simultaneous "Awww"s were heard. Lily and I laughed super hard. It was so funny! The SM people were kinda scared of us hahaha. We were all super hyper!
While outside SM, we found out that Nora flew to the States and met david! Like Larissa! Diana was like "Oh my god, you actually stared into his mesmerizing eyes..." and Nora, feeling cheeky, said "Yes, of course..." and all of us were like "We hate you. So much." Haha. She even showed us a picture of her and David together! it was her phone's screensaver! Everyone screamed when we saw the photo. Yep. Everyone = jealous.
Lily and I remembered that we still had 3 packets of the flyers so we 'briefed' the group about what to do - explain the gifting campaign and such - and we all split to hand out the flyers. Lily, Diana, Lydia, Shikin and I went outside of Plaza Sing to give them out while Hakim was taking pics of us o_o We found out no one is practically outside so we went inside Plaza Sing again and up to Golden Village cause we figured there would be a lot of teenagers there. We thought wrong. But... there was this group of JC girls. Lily approached them and said "Hi! Do you guys listen to English music?" They were like "Uh... sure?" Lily: "Do you guys know who David Archuleta is? He sang "Crush"!" Girls: "Uh..." Diana: "Come on, remember!" Girls: "Uh... English music?" Lily: "Oh. Never mind then..." We walked away and I asked what happened. Lily was like "They were hesitating to answer whether they listen to English music or not! Ugh." Haha.
Her phone started ringing, she answered, stopped in her tracks, screamed, put the phone down and told me, Lily, Diana and Shikin "OMG! CLARA CALLED! THE ALBUM'S OUT!" So the 5 of us screamed/squealed our heads of and ran all the way to the 3rd floor. Mind you, we were at Golden Village, 7th floor and we ran all the way down. We were thankful we didn't bump into anybody! So many "OMG! WHICH FLOOR! CRAP! NOT THIS ONE! DOWN DOWN DOWN! LEFT! NO WAIT HERE! WAIT FOR ME!" were heard hahaha. We screamed all the way down and ran inside Sembawang Music! The others were there already! Sal managed to record us running in! Hahaha! It was funny! Clara showed us her copy and we screamed our heads of! The others were like hyprventilating! Sembawang Music was like supre noisy! Then Sheryl came! To buy as well. We were queuing up... Diana was like "I can't breathe!" Then someone opened up the free poster/calendar that was given for free and everyone screamed again! Weiyan opened up the CD and shouted "WHO WANTS TO SEE THE INSIDE?!" and some screamed and ran to her omg. Hahaha.
Alvin came to get his copy! He was an older Archie! Like my dad probably? I found out he was filipino! Yay! Woot! Do you know how many copies he bought?! 10. 10 freaking copies of the CD. Which meant that he had 10 posters too! Diana asked him "Can I have one?" and he was like "Sure!" and gave her one. She screamed! Haha. He gave out all of the posters he had so in the end, I have 2! Woot! He was super kind. After he bought, he waved goodbye. We stayed inside SM for so long, hyperventilating and such. Hazel said "If we promise to keep quiet, I might convince them to play the album..." Haha. So they did! Some really had to clamp their mouths shut from squealing! "Crush", "Touch My Hands" and "Barriers" were played. Everyone sang along... it was super fun. It was like a mini-choir haha.

Clara & Juliette!

Weiyan and her friends!

Lily and Lydia - queueing up!

Hazel!

Eunice and Sheryl! The poster/calendar! Omg! Lols.


Kitty reading through the flyer... we found out she schools in RGS. Woah.

Lily listening to the album!

*Gasp* Look at what is playing...

Aunt Nora and Aunt Yasmin! They are such fangirls, I love them!
After that, we finally went out of SM and decided to sit somewhere just to chat. Some people actually needed to go so we recorded a 20-30 second video for David's Bday to be submitted to Team Archie. He'll see it! XDD We ended up recording it in one of those empty hallways in MRT Stations haha! Everyone left after that :( I hugged Aunt Yasmin (yeah, I should call her Aunt) and waved goodbye to everyone. Aunt Yasmin was like "Bye Arch Angels!" Haha. I went home with Lily & Lydia. And while the 3 of us were walking away, I shouted to them "Today was beyond awesome!" Lols. We all will definitely meet again in the future!
