Karaoke!
Place: MHQ Karaoke Bar, Pacific Mall Date: 19th February 2000
After much nagging on the part of Norman and Sandra, i finally went out and applied for a MHQ membership card...the next Saturday we all agreed to meet in the Pacific Mall at a specific time...we all made it on time...except for Sandra of course, who always seem to be chronically late...hehe, she must still be running on Jamaican time.
Once we got together, we bickered over where to eat...before finally choosing the Vietnamese Noodle House upstairs...All in all, it was an uneventful dinner except for the time Remon gave a joke at the wrong time, causing the soda i was drinking to come spewing out my nose...and for Sandra complaining about her Hairy Chicken dinner, which she absolutely refused to eat!.
Inside the glorified closet that MHQ passes off as a private room, we ordered some drinks, flipped through the large song catalogues, shocked ourselves messing with the wiring, and mashed up the controls trying to figure out how to use it...Once we had all that in order, the 2 hour torture session began...
Happy Hour!
The room they gave us was so small that i had to go OUTSIDE to take this darn picture!.
Sandra: "Hey norman, don't Jeffrey look fool standing out there in the corridor like that!?"
Norman: "Bwoy, i don't know him yu know!"
Remon: "Who's at the door?...Room Service?"
Mili: "Heheh, It'd be pretty funny if i slammed the door in his face just as he takes the picture!"
Batty...i mean Backstreet Boys.
Norman and Remon got so into their Backstreet Boys routine, that even long after we had left, they kept insisting we call them Kevin and Howie.
Norman (aka Kevin): "You are...my Fiiiireee...the one...Desiiiireee!!"
Remon (aka Howie): "Cuz i....want it...that waayyy!!"
When Serenades go wrong.
As a little joke, i decided to serenade Sandra with my rendition of Savage Garden's "Truly Madly Deeply"...but, i couldn't make the high notes and cracked up less than a minute into the song = )
Jeff: " I should've worn a tighter pair of jeans for this song = )"
Sandra: "Was all that horrible screeching supposed to be a Love Song?"
The Spice Girls...and one Spice Boy!
Sandra, Remon and Milli love the Spice Girls so much, that not only do they like to sing their songs, but they've formed a new group based on the Spice Girls...from left to right are Mawga Spice, Bashy Spice and Money Spice.
Not Shown: Anime Spice and Diet Spice.
Bailamos is Spanish for "Tone Deaf"
Mili's got a thing for Latino singers, like Ricky Martin and Enrique Iglesias...here she is, belting out the bilingual lyrics to the tune of "Bailamos"...her english is fine...it's her spanish that needs a bit of work = )
Mili: "Bailamos!, let the rythm take you over Bailamos!!...Yo quiero...Taco Bell!"
Norman: "I can't take this anymore!, Remon have you found another song yet?"
Remon: "I'm looking!, i'm looking!!...just hurry up and pick one that doesn't have any Spanish!"
Yakkety-Yak!
Sandra and the others makes fun of Mili's singing...
Sandra: "And then she was like...Baiiillllammmmoooooossssss!!!"
Norman: "Bwoy, you shouldn't be talking yu know Sandra, you were singing just as badly as Mili!"
Bedtime story.
Remon fell asleep at the mic shortly after this picture was taken. Hey, 2 hours of singing'll do that to ya!...Mili didn't last that much longer...but Sandra kept on going, and going, and going...
Sandra: "My body never knew such pleasure...my heart never knew such pain!"
Remon: "Now i'm all...*Zzz*...Cried Out...*Zzz*....Over You...." *snore!*
N' & Out of Sync.
Norman's in sync, Sandra's out of sync, and Remon is just plain stync! (just joking = ).
Norman: "Drive myself crazy...drive myself crazy...err...how's the rest of that song go again?"
Sandra: "Ugh, this is the 3rd song from an all-boy band in a row!!...change it already!"
Remon: "Okay, okay...hmm lemme see here...1..7..9..4..8....Blink 182!!"
The Blues Brothers
And no, i'm not talking about our clothes either, me and norman teamed up to show our friends the legendary singing talents our family is well known for...unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be hereditary = (
Jeff: "I don't wanna close my eyes!...don't wanna fall asleep...'cause i'd miss you babe!!"
Norman: "Jeff!, open your eyes you idiot!...we've moved on to another song already!"
Mili: "Wait!, don't stop him till i get a picture of this!"
