I received this letter the other day...
'Twas an invitation to my alma mater's
SPEECH Day
I wonder WHY they call it SPEECH day
when all they ever do is
Give out awards.
Shouldn't it be a day FOR speeches?
I mean, that's why you make a day
SPEECH Day,
isn't it?
(Not that I'm all for it though...)
So the dress code for old boys
was formal wear...
with SHIRT
and a TIE.
So I'm thinkin'...
"Yeah,that's cool."
But the shopping trip
Made me think otherwise.
It was my Mom, cousin and me
out on a shopping "trip"
to the Parkway Parade branch
of Isetan.
And we ended up
buying this:
I wouldn't mind wearin' this
out on a TGIF night with my pals.
But on an important event as stated above?
I don't think so.
Okay.
Now imagine THAT with a tie.
WITH THE SHIRT TUCKED IN!!!
I think NOT!!!
I admit,
I don't have the hottest bod in the room
But I wouldn't wanna showcase it
In THAT!
I'd look like Disco Dan
mashed up with Bozo the clown!
Personally, I preferred the OTHER one we bought.
Tucked OUT, of course.
Seriously, it looks better in real life
Than it does in the photo.
But NOOO....
They said that white wasn't 'cool'...
That it resembled my school uniform...
Like Momma, leave the fashion consultation
to ME, yeah?
No offence, but....
well, no offence.
