Every time I want to type “October” I type “Oktober” now!

Just like in Malay wtf.

Anyway last Friday, I was at Laundry at the Curve for the GAB Oktoberfest celebration.

To be like you know a responsible writer (wtf) I googled Oktoberfest.

Oktoberfest is a 16-18 day festival held each year in Munich, Bavaria, Germany, running from late September to the first weekend in October. It is one of the most famous events in Germany and the world’s largest fair, with more than 5 million people attending every year. The Oktoberfest is an important part of Bavarian culture. Other cities across the world also hold Oktoberfest celebrations, modelled after the Munich event.

Visitors eat huge amounts of traditional hearty fare such as a lot of meat, sausages and sauerkraut, among others.

Got one damn funny line in Wikipedia! “There are many problems every year with young people who overestimate their ability to handle large amounts of alcohol. Many forget that beer has 5.8 to 6.3% alcohol, and they pass out due to drunkenness. These drunk patrons are often called “Bierleichen” (German for “beer corpses”).”
HAHAHAHAHA

Setup of the place. I got there quite early so it was still quite light and people were still coming in.

Very nice right! The tables all so quaint and the staff were all dressed up in cute German costumes!

Including me and Fresh the wench AHAHAH

Dammit why am I always the man.

Yuenny’s attempt at using the panaromic function on my camera. Damn fail cos everyone came out damn distorted!

Me!

Me and my Tiger.

What is Oktoberfest without the beer!

A lot of promos were going on – you could get a RM50 mug of 1 liter Tiger beer AND bring home the mug! (it was hugeass)
Or if you spent more than RM200 on your food bill, you’d get a free bucket of 5 Tiger Beer pints.
And a free Oktoberfest hat (which I really really wantedddd) if you buy 12-can beer packs at participating hypermarkets.

Bumped into Aaron who looked all sweaty and gross hahaha.

Fresh and Jestina being very fascinated with my phone -_-

Stilt walkers! I loves em.

Because EVERYONE looks short next to them HAHA.

Yuenny and Fresh.

Me and Muenny!

A bunch of us were engaged in a competition – since this was a GAB event, we were all divided into 3 teams – Tiger, Heineken and Guinness. We were supposed to bring as many people as we could to the event.

I was Team Heineken with Daphkisses and Jasonmumbles! Team Tiger who was also there were Tziaaa and Chuckei.

Not sure who won though cos after that we all got damn happy and non competitive already wtf.

Me and Daphkisses who’s very sweet, ladylike and incredibly skinny ahh envy don’t turn me purple.

And and look at this! First thing Jane said when she saw me was “you’re so short!!” FML.

Not me who’s short lor it’s she who’s tall *denial

Aih stuck between two young and pretty girls wtf.

When I found out I was gonna be at the same event as them and Tziaaa I told Ringo “aih I better remember to put on more makeup” WTF.

With Gareth (who helps even out the mean age a bit WTF) and purty Tziaaa.

And a shiny head HAHAHAHA not me who did this ah it was Fresh!!!

Well at least I beat someone in height.

With Wombeh, Tziaaa, Shinyee and Adele.

Carlos (from Nuffnang PH) looking like a right player.

Wombeh!

And I got momo cheeks but Cheesie not there to have momo cheeks with me cos she was at Sid’s TTDI the night before for Team Tiger against Team Guinness with Niki, KY and Cindy.

Rachel and Huai Bin!

Carlos who drank and drank but never turned red.

Not like some people wtf. I told him I couldn’t tell where his face ended and his shirt began wtf and apparently Gareth said the same thing too hahahaaha.

Since it’s Oktoberfest is a fair, it wouldn’t be complete without games!

This was a barrel rolling game.

Check out the girls in the barmaid outfits damn cute right!

This was the game I attempted. To throw pretzels over one of the beer bottles arranged there. I asked for handicap cos obviously my body not long enough but they ignored me wtf.

Both Wombeh and I failed miserably at this.

There was also this adorable quartet playing oom pah pah songs and pretty dancers in flouncy skirts waltzing around the place I think that was my favorite part of the whole festival 🙂

Rachel, Carlos and Nic with the 1 liter mugs of Tiger beer. Damn huge even when the mug was empty I found it hard to lift.

We each brought back like 1-2 of them ^^

HB and Wombeh in a bros before hos moment.

Fred, HB and WOmbeh.

Drinking games – More college frat party than Oktoberfest ahaha.

I think this is the first time an Oktoberfest type event like this has been held in Malaysia. And one of the more fun events I’ve been to! I loved how they recreated Oktoberfest here (even tho I’ve never been to Germany wtf) and how the atmosphere and setup were so merry and fun yet quite quaint. 😀
