Happy Ghost Cafe

Never had a good laugh for a long time. Especially when sharing my frightening experience with my campmates.

It all started off last yr, when jy was boasting about the effort she put in for the event at feb and told me to come down to support. Certainly i promised her instantly. And there i was yesterday.

I woke up early in the morning eating breakfast when the first msg i received was from her.

"eh pple tink you all can 4get abt comin into the haunted cafe liaoz.. its damn not scary la... super sad. cus the cloths damn thin.. aiya i oso dunno wat 2 say lah.. juz dun come in"

Certainly, anyone who first read this will not understand wat she is saying. What does thin cloths have to do with the cafe? does she mean the actress all wearing thin cloth then become not scary? knowing her so well that its rather unlike her to give such unclear msg, This will mean 2 things: 1) the cafe was really horrible that she was disappointed and embarress to let me grace the occasion. 2) she dont want me to come for some reasons. And because of that the more i really wanted to go down have a look and perhaps see what i can do to help.

reached there at 11am exactly, the time which she said that the cafe will be opened. (i at first tot it was inside cine, and i saw ghost making themselve up in the girls toilet. Almost shouted jy's name as i tot she was one of them) It was then i knew what she meant. Cloths too thin (i'm civilized enough not to use the word 'damn'). She was refering to the black cloths used to surround the place to darken the atmosphere. Seriously, it was ridiculous, everyone can see in and out from the cloths. Whats more, the speaker was empowering, it looked more like a disco having a funeral or something. Of cos i think these are factors that they didn't expect.
I can rmb that time i told her to "make the place super super dark, use more cloths and make sure got SOFT ghostly music, atmosphere very the important."
Nonetheless, jy still pushed it on. Was rather amazed seeing her trying her best to improve the cafe as much as she could.

There was nothing i could do then, so i went across to ljs to eat lunch while observing them.
It was around 12pm that i made my move. I must say, they made alot of effort on the ghosts. Ganesha commented (just now) that these girls must be either very ugly or they did a good job with the make up.
I must really comment on the pregnant ghost holding onto a baby doll. The one with messy hair on the pic. (i was carrying the baby while taking the pic). She never failed to pop up from nowhere and scream when u least expected. Of cos, i played along and scream back for like 3-4 times. I laughed eventually but she didn't. Professionalism. According to jy, her name was zz.
Its so fun playing along with the ghost. Doing weird actions and stuff, too bad jy was too busy (or embarress) to be there to see me having fun..
