Lantern Festival 2008

For the first time ever,
I had a day set aside to celebrate this with friends.
And by celebrating, we mean burning lanterns and dipping our fingers into hot melting candle wax.

So, armed with a bottle of wine and tiny pieces of mooncake,
we made our way down to Maplewood Park to make a mess of the fitness corner.
We set off sparklers, and lit up pictures and words and weird symbols and generally,
had a decent amount of good clean fun.
It gave us the time we needed to catch up, swap stories and fear for the lives of polar bears, suffering from global warming.

The event at Zouk was good.
Inevitable mistakes, last minute clarifications and messing up of the sponsors' names.
Other than that, not having much sleep, not eating for 24 hours and standing around in six inch heels for eight hours in total, everything was dandy.
It's a shame, the timing and all.
Was hoping there'd be more able to make it.
I think secretly, I was also hoping there'd be an energy for me to feed off.
C'est la vie

Kudos to you, Freemansland.
You guys did fab(:
