Today was the first in ages
i didn’t have some meeting/inteview/shoot/event
or appointment of any kind

So i took advantage of it
to run around town like a mad person
running unavoidable errands

Tapau-ed char koay teow,
and ate it at home while doing emails

Dropped by recycling centre @ Ikano
thanks to boxes from new shoes
and plastic from Clem’s dry-cleaning
plus heaps of other paper, beer cans and plastic

Did my taxes at the new Lembaga Hasil office @ Damansara Perdana
Was mighty impressed at how modern the government building looked!
Brick walls, metal + glass
And all the staff inside were incredibly friendly and spoke great English
:p
Sorry but you know government workers aren’t known for their proficiency in this language

Drove to Jalan Sultan Ismail
picked up a cheque

Wondered how to get to Central Market from there
and called FaiTheMai for directions
(You know every person has 1 friend they call for directions? :p)
Met Justin Yap at his work studio
and picked out some things i thought i might wear to Audi Fashion Fest

We went for lunch at what was supposedly
the best wan tan mee in Petaling Street area
His uncle said so and he’s a foodie so he has Food Bitching License

Rushed to BSC after that, to pick out an outfit from Gallo (also for AFF)
Reason being, i really wanna represent Msian designers when i’m there!
I want to be able to reply, “Oh, this top? It’s from so-and-so, a Malaysian designer, have you not heard of him/her? *beams*”

From Bangsar i went to 1U,
where i got a memory card reader
and enquired bout printing namecards
cos i was thinking how lame it is
that i don’t have a namecard for my blog
and have nothing to pass in return anymore

From 1U i went home,
and planned on designing the namecard right then
to send to print and be ready by end of the night
Then it had to storm and i got scared the modem might fry
so i switched off everything -_-
Got namecard done, went back to 1U to print

While waiting 3o minutes for it to print,
i went to buy dinner for myself.

And happened to walk past Topshop.
On sale.

Picked out a few items,
and had the alarm go off on me TWICE.
The first time, they found a metal detector they forgot to remove from a top.
The second time, they found a metal detector they forgot to remove from a pair of shorts.
Can you say ‘malu’ with me?
When i walked out the third time, i said,
“If it goes off again, you’re gonna have to give me a free top or something.”

Actually i wasn’t angry at all,
and we were all smiling and joking.
I think i was giddy from the shopping. 

-_-

Picked up namecards,
packed for AFF halfway
and decided i’d better come to Clem’s place
before he says we didn’t spend time together tonight

And i found him passed out
at 10:30pm
because he (on his insistence)
partied with me two weeknights in a row.

And third night cannot make it already.

I said: Welcome to your girlfriend’s party life, dude.

Check out this brilliant ad done by Stefan Sagmeister (THE SAGMEISTER) with Kubhaer.
It’s a fucking fantastic work of art.

 
I told Kubs it was so brilliant, i felt like crying.
He replied with how i had to slow down on the drinks.

-_-

I’m sober tonight la wei.

Basket.
