The chinese operetta I was at the olympics with some friends, and they asked me if I wanted to eat anything: ("Yeah. Can you guys get me... Chips and some chicken?"). Susan went off to get the chips, Kylie went off to get some chicken (though she kept turning into Jenny). Anyhow. I decided to go along with them to the fast food joints. As we were walking down towards the bridge, Susan (who was wearing THE SEXIEST high heeled boots in the world) was a tad bit tipsy & started telling us how so & so (a friend of ours) was "sooo fat today! she's reallly put on weight!" and whilst I agreed with her, I hissed to susan "SHUTUP man! that's so slacknot to mention she's walking right behind us...) Can't remember who the 'fat' person was. Anyhow. Heeding my advice, Susan says "Hey! isnt it cool how we're all wearing heels!??!?!" to whichy I replied. "Ummm. only you are. we're all in flats..." "Oh." "loooooooser!!!! :) " Thats when the scene changed. I was still at the olympics, but i was with two people: A really old woman and a 21yr old chick (lets call her kat for editorial sake). I didnt really know them but they took me under their wing and I became part of their "troupe". The old lady had onhalf of a beige bra and half of a black bra. The beige one belonged to Kat, and it indicated that Kat was a radiographer. The black one belonge to the old lady, and it meant she was a geographer. I dont know why the old lady only had half of each on. and why she was wearing kat's bra-half, not being a radiograper: she wasnt qualified to wear a radiographer-bra. (HAHAHA HA thats so weird) Note: I dont know what a radiographer is. I think I made it up. We were all really poor. The old lady and her sidekick wanted to be teachers at this academy thing (good $) and to get in, they had to do certain evil things. I cant remember what they were, becuase all of a sudden, we weren't at the olympic stadium anymore, we were in some sort of amazonian jungle, there, in the jungle was a white snow leopard. The leopard was participating in a game show where you swap habitats with another thing, and as part of the challenge, the leopard had to eat like the animal he'd swapped with. Being a bit cocky/over confident, He'd chosed to eat a crocodile. So he was perched up in a tree, waiting to jump down onto the croc & wrestle/kill it. Meanwhile up in the trees, a human had swapped places with bird, and the human had to balance upon the trees & collect 'golden footed caterpillars' disgusting white grubs with little gold coloured feet) because that's what the bird did for dinner everyday. The old lady, the 21yr old and I stood about watching them. It was most interesting. AH that's it! To get the teaching job, The old lady and Kat had to do some 'mischief', and the game show was their so called 'mischief' Well, then we were transported back to the olympic stadium, and in the time we'd gone, They had already finished calling out all the winners and stuff.so we just sat there & sang/yelled out "go.. aussie...go" which caught on so that everyone was yelling it out loud. and we sang a few more patriotic jingles, then the old lady brought out a sponge cake with cubes of fruit inside and cut a slice to give to the 21year old, who turned out to be my sister note: thats why I've called the 21year old 'kat' and an olympics-commentator saw us and announced to the rest of the stadium: 'LADIES AND GENTELMEN!! THE FIRST PERSON TO RECIEVE A SLICE OF BIRTHDAY CAKE! (at the olympics) ... I became the 1st '2nd person to recieve balblabla'. HAHAHA. the cake was sooo yummy. Then the lady dissapeared. Confused, Kat and I ran to the trains tation to look for her. We espied her getting into a train carriage so we quickly followed. When we got in, the old lady was asleep. But she woke up and grunted "who are you?" followed by "You're 16!"(to Kat) & "You're 21!" (to me, the 18yrold who looks like she's 16... bummer). because she'd somehow gotton our ids mixed up. We went about trying to un-mix-her-up to no avail. After sometime had passed and we'd given up however, she snapped right out of her confused state, looked at me and said something about wanting to 'give it all in' and 'get away from it all'.then she jumped up and dove through a hole in the train carriage floor, down down down into the ocean (i.e She committed suicide) Kat and I were shocked. Fast forward a few years, Kat & I are living/working as teachers in a hotel (which resembles my grandma/uncle's white brick house). We were in the lounge room teaching when the boss, this guy with mini devil horns growing atop his head, comes in and drags me into the office/admin room, saying in a rather angry/irritated-i'm gonna-fire-you voice "look at this. just LOOK at this...". Kat follows me. The boss then hands me an envelope, and in the envelope is a big golden trophy with the inscription "c3-p" and a picture of a happy rich couple & a baby in a cot who's holding the trophy. At the back of the photo, the rich peope had written "I dont know how baby got hold of this (trophy). Maybe she got it from the blabla sisters adoption centre? who knows. anyhow. We think it belongs to you guys" The old lady, Kat & I had won the trophy at the olympics. Anyhow, somehow, we knew that the old lady had been reincarnated and she was that little baby in the picture (thats why she was holding the trophy). The 'c3-p" inscription meant something to us, maybe it was the old lady's codename (I've forgotton) so we decided to set off to buy the kid back from the rich couple. When we told the boss, he became angry and wouldnt let us leave (he would lose $ with us two gone from the hotel). We were determined to however, and, handing Kat the keys to the front door (which the boss had locked), I turned to face the boss and started singing a chinese opperetta type thing (mini opera?). As I sang, I levitated so my head was about to touch the cieling (2metres up) and I found that I was dressed in chinese opera robes: flowing dress, super long flowing sleeves, flowers embroidered here and there... cool makeup, ornate headpiece... and I was armed with a red stick that sort of looked like a baguette. I know I know: why the hell was i singing a chinese opera? well my dears, It was all part of my plan to render the boss useless: I knew that if I started singing the opera, which involded a guy and a girl, The guy I was singing to (in our case, my boss with the devil horns) would have to sing the guys part. (I'm not sure why, Those were just the rules.) So. My boss ALSO found himself dressed in long flowing robes and a black baguette stick thing, (btw, The operetta I was singing was about a guy and a girl having a fight/quarrel: thus the sticks (to hit each other with) We both stood/levitated there, singing furiously at each other and occassionally having stick fights (sort of like sword fighting... with sticks). I used my stick to try and push the boss further down the corridor AWAY from Kat who was trying to open the doors, whilst my boss used thge stick to push me TOWARDS Kat (so that he could grab the keys from her hand and stop us from leaving). we pushed and shoved and sang and had a marvelously fun time (!>??!) and I noticed, after about an hour of singing, that Kat had FINALLY managed to open the (extremely fidgety and complicated) door so it was safe for me to stop singing. So, I said to my boss "alright. stop. I leaving", and started floating back to the ground. My boss lowered his stick (we were in the middle of a stick fight) and replied "what!?!?!? You're allowed to do that!?!?! I though We had to finsih singing the opera! thats not fair! if i'd known sooner, I would've done that!") and I laughed at him and said "suckers!" (how immature. hee hee) and ran out of the door to Kat [who said to me "you can keep on playing that game if you want, I could always go get the baby myself you know" (The game = the opera, and in the time that we'd been singing it, my boss and I had become friends and the boss saw the funny-ness of wthe whole opera singing thing. He also realiused that we were coming bck to the hotel to work so it was all cool) but I told her that we could play that game when we came back.] We started walking walking towards the street to catch the bus to the blablasisters adoption centre, when my boss flung open the hotel doors looking very distressed and yelled out "WAIT! if.. you must..leave... *sob sob*.. take.. these....*sob sob*" and in his outstretched hands were 3 coconut halves. Umm. not sure what their use was, but they was supposed to help us in our travels... This was all very comedic because the boss was dressed in womens opera clothes and he had all the makeup and head pieces on to boot. and the coconuts were just..well... fucked. really! COCONUTS: WHAT THE??!?!? anyhow we accepted the coconuts, thanked our boss, then set off. And thats where the dream ends.
