#391- Waiting for the best frozen yogurt in the entire state
Gosh it feels like I haven't blogged in so long (is that just me). How are you finding uni because I have a non-existent social life. I mean I totally second whoever wrote on the USyd confessions page about how difficult it is to have a social life when you really only want to be at uni when you have lectures or tutorials. On top of that it's so hard to keep in touch with people who might be really good friends with if you a) see them only one a week or b) don't even see them at all. So yeah story of my life so far I have acquaintances but very few people that I can really call friends and we are not talking about facebook friends (hell no).
Want to hear another story? If not, don't bother reading the following.
So on Friday was the pre-sale event at Noggi Strathfield, basically anything K-pop related is sponsored by Noggi. I'm sure if you knew but Mychonny had a fan meeting there last year and the crowds were crazy, they were obviously a lot less subdued because we were only buying tickets but there were a lot more people than I expected. In the morning I went to Daiso in the city to buy a box to put Reflectica's present in, then stuff it with the confetti I made plus her actually present whilst I was on the train to Strathfield. I got there just before 12 and there were only a handful of people outside Noggi which was closed at the time, they opened at 3pm (yeah stupid I know). Btw 365 friend and Better this is the one time that I am so glad that the two of you flaked on me, anyhow I went to My Sweet Memory to grab some food i.e. my usual green tea latte and I also tried their bingsu. Killed around one and a half hours, I had my trusty law readings. When I walked out it was a bit before 1.30pm and there like maybe 15 people in the line and I kinda panicked. So I took my place in the queue, and I asked the people in front of me if they were also lining up for tickets. Turns out they weren't just there for Noggi..... a 2 hour wait.....really? During my long long 4hour wait, I pretty much conversed with the girls in front of me and these brother and sister duo behind me, whilst doing a little reading on the side. And it just happens that one of the girls is a Running Man fan (hallelujah), she also ended up buying a ticket to the concert so spend a good 4 hours together. Tickets began selling at 4 but it obviously took them a while for us to get our turn and what really pisses me off is how there were school kids ahead of me (I'm glaring at you Sydney Girls and St Mary kids) in the queue- hello wait your god damn friggin turn, sigh I just wanted to say Bitch please because by the time it was 4 we were like 40 something in the queue. Yeah thanks to those people who either pushed in or had someone they knew waiting in the line.
Also everything time some white person passed by or an old/unenlightened Asian passed by we got so many weird looks like this old Asian lady just walked by and I swear her eyes bulged every time she blinked as we saw all of us waiting outside an unopened shop- just casually waiting 4hours for the best frozen yogurt in Sydney even though Moochi and Yogurberry are open for business. All in all I got my ticket and I was almost stood up by Reflectica so yeah people please be punctual when dealing with me because I had a very narrow tolerance window.
