How Schmetterling Spent Her Birthday

S's Alarm Clock: *beepBEEPbeepBEEPbeepBEEP*
S: *whack*
Alarm Clock: *is sullenly silent*

7:00 AM

Roommate(NH)'s Alarm Clock: *BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPBEEPMANIACALBEEP*

S: *searches for panic button*

10:50 AM

(Outside the computer room)

S:*finds panic button and jabs at it frantically*

Classmate: Yo. Hope the computers are working properly for this electronic assessment.

S: Now you've gone and jinxed it.

11:00 AM

(S grits her teeth and tries not to swear at the computer that is probably slower at calculating stuff than a centenarian with a faulty abacus)

12:00 AM

S: *brain melts*

12:30 AM

(S stumbles out of the com lab towards the artsoc meeting room. She has to buy one ticket for herself and four for other people.

Artsoc Meeting Room: *Massive Whopping Queue from the Deepest Bowels of Hell*

S: *beep*

2:00 PM

(At the money-changer's)

Guy at counter: 200SGD gives ... (presses calculator) about 20 Euros?

S: I don't believe it. This is ridiculous (has no choice but to change GBP instead).

(At Sainsbury's)

S: Heck, I'm buying two tubs of Ben & Jerry's to cheer myself up.

4:00 PM

(Home)

S: Zzz.


6:30 PM

NH: *bursts into room* Hey I'm back! We're all going out! Eh, you're sleeping?!
S: Wha?

7:00 PM

(S, NH and the other 2 flatmates, SY and PX, amble out of the house to the tube station)

PX: OMG CUTE GUY!
SY: WHERE?!
PX: THERE! (points at some guy in the corner reading a book)
PX: OMG HE'S READING A BOOK!
S: O-kay.

8:00 PM

(Dinner at some crowded Japanese restaurant)

Plate of food: *is goddamn big*
S: Woah.
SY,PX & NH: FOOD!

9:00 PM

(All four are kinda strolling around)

SY: Whittards!

(All look at tea for a while)

PX: Accesorize!

(All look at hats and scarves for awhile)

(This goes on in a similar vein for the better part of one and a half hours. There is much girly squealing over nice earrings. )

NH: When did our walk to Piccadilly turn into a shopping trip?

(The four pass by a funfair in Leicester Square)

NH: OMG THAT STUFFED BEAR IS SO CUTE!
S: O-kay.

11:30 PM

(The four finally get home. On the way, they meet A, who goes up to the flat for awhile)

S: *begins to notice that people are acting suspiciously* Hmm.

Just before 0:00 AM

S: Hey, power outtage?
Thornton's Chocolate Cake: *appears*
S: Ah.
Everyone else: Happy Birthday!
S: Thanks. You realise that it's nearly officially over?
A: Still got a few minutes left.
S: Semantics.
Thornton's Chocolate Cake: *gets eaten*
