yep, oriental society. the one club i still take part in at school..ha! well, all we really do is nom oriental goodies and fawn over hot asian guys (for example - THIS guy miura haruma, officially the only asian guy i've ever thought was attractive *dies*) but lately we've been watching weepy films - koizora for example. shed so many tears over that movie...
anyway, we decided to mark our love for o-soc with a yearbook page devoted to the club. and what better way than to camwhore for all we were worth to provide visual material for the page? yeahh, you know i'm right :)
we spent the best part of an hour at lunch taking pics for the page ;) standard
and we brought in cool asian stuff specifically for the photos. i brought a yukata (seen below), inez a mini kimono and a pink wig, jing her awesome sailor schoolgirl uniform!
pictured here with the gorgeous xin nee, who brought her asian loving to the yard with geek accessories - glasses, books, calc etc, cat ears and a soho tee (yep...cause chinatown is in soho...:P)
so the camwhoring began.
one example of a "typically asian pose": the sailor moon pose. "tsukini kawatte oshioki yo!"
sailor moon style:
oriental society style:
yeah inez, you know mine was the most accurate ;) kinda.
inez looks like a sushi chef :P or, y'know. a yakuza :D
then we took the asian loving outside...
in the stark barbican landscape in front of our school, there is very little in terms of nature :P luckily we found a willow tree to express the orientalism nicely!
miaow! finally beginning to get the nekomimi craze...
i made more peace signs than i've probs ever made in my life. AND I WAS PROUD.
poses choreographed by inez while xin took the photos ;)
getting sick of the shameless camwhoring yet? :P
tore some flowers off a bush for this pic. ah well, put it down to artistic licence
haha. despite practically skipping food (noming is very important in the orient!) to do this, we all ended up having a lot of fun. asian girls love nothing better than a good photoshoot...you know it! we should have one once a week :)
and the funny/ironic/retarded thing is, we didn't even end up using any of these pics for the yearbook. facebook screwing up made sure of that...GRR! ah well. we made a nice homage to miura haruma instead :D which basically sums us up.
japan IS coming! this is just a little taster of the oriental life ;)
