It was sunny today. After the gym, Vivian told me I have that important vocal exam next Friday. As I expected, it requires a formal dress. Luckily, I happened to have brought one back from my trip to Japan – a black and white one-piece, with a floral collar and cuffs. It was the most elegant, suitable formal dress you could find in Asia, or so I thought! It cost me a fortune. Guess what? After Vivian saw my photos trying it on, she said it looked 'too funerary'. I mean, yes, so what? That’s kind of the point, isn’t it? She called my best formal dress 'funeral-ready'. Fine, I’ll just wear a white tee and a random skirt! I don't think they even understand what 'formal dress' means.
