I can only imagine the HUNDREDS of pictures to share but i really don’t have time right now!
Still have pix from Jakarta, Bali and lots from Bangkok!

Have to run heaps of errands today so will post later!

On a quick note, QueenKanch was super effing upset cos she lost her luggage while flying back to KL.
Seriously, that’s like a shopaholica’s worst nightmare.
AirAsia said they can only compensate RM90 per kg (!!?)
I think Kanch’s SK-II skincare i saw her use in Bangkok in itself is worth over 1k.
Not counting the thousands of RM worth in new clothes…
I would SO CRY la if i lost my baggage!

I told her to use The Secret :p and to envision the bag being returned.
After a few days, and writing emails to AirAsia,
Some dude in a Proton Saga (a bit shady) returned her luggage to her!

Super lucky right!

Anyway i’ve GOT to run!
Many-a Christmas things to do!

That line is my bad-habit drunk-tweeting for the past few nights here!
Have finally achieved more friends than i can count on two hands here   :xlaughing:
But it HAD to be the week before i return to KL.

My old friend from college times, Way Sern, flew in on Saturday,
so i’ve been layaning taking him out to where i think he should go / visit.

I’m super tired cos there’s just so many things to do at night as well as during the day.

The fellow damn cannot make it when he shops tho,
3 hours and he complains of foot pain -_-

Tomorrow is my last full day in Bangkok.
But i think i’ll come back end of Jan   :xlaughing:
I wanna research some sweet suit designs and get one tailor-made,
plus i gotta carry home the Christmas tree cos QueenKanch doesn’t wanna keep it.

OK TIRED GONNA TAKE HOT BATH AND PASAUT

HP Future Is…

Comments (7) Sponsored Post

A few weeks ago, i was invited to speak on a panel discussion at an HP event
and to my utter delight,
the date happened to be scheduled perfectly during the time i was to be back in KL for the MINDstyle LIFEstyle event!

Talk about the Universe lining up things for me   :xlaughing:

Landing in KL at 3:10pm on Wednesday,
I was supposed to be at Rootz at 5:30pm for briefing,
and had a horrible feeling there’s no way i can make it at stipulated time,
so i emailed Nuffnang to tell them i would most probably be late.

And i was.

By the time i got through immigration and customs it was 4:30pm.
By the time i got through the 50-minute taxi ride home not including traffic, it was 5:45pm.

 :xwhatevah:

BigDavid (from Nuffnang): Can you come straight?
Me: Are you kidding me… i look like utter shit right now! And i have this allergic reaction on my face so i really MUST put on make up!
BigDavid: No la, you always look good!
Me: David. I look like a peeling monster. It’s unacceptable.
BigDavid: Ok ok, just get here as fast as you can…

Poor fellow smsing me on my constant whereabouts and ETA.

It was jammed all the way from Jalan Duta to Jalan Bukit Bintang,
and i managed to reach the venue at 7pm sharp (time event starts).

Rushing in, i was quite relieved to see that no one was as kancheong as David and i -_-‘
and i wasn’t the last to arrive.
Mr I’m-More-Fashionably-Late-Than-You-Joyce-Wong aka Kenny Sia‘s flight landed later than mine,
and he had to rush straight from the airport.

hp Future Is

If you haven’t already heard of this event, you must be wondering what IS THIS
that even Kenny Sia was being flown in for it.

Called Future Is, HP partners with Microsoft to bring together young influencers
to discuss the future of anything from technology to design, and fashion to environment.

The 5 influencers they invited were:
– Jojo Struys – TV host/celeb
– RedMummy – parenting
– ThatGirlCynthia – student
– Kenny Sia – because he’s just so femes technology
– KinkyBlueFairy (ME   :xlaughing: ) – fashion + design

Even though they categorized us to show we’re from different lifestyles,
it didn’t really matter cos we all ended up answering questions for all of them anyway!

This be me looking like a cartoon.
I think i must have been a cartoon character in my past life.
Every time i look at event pictures, i wonder why i look… like an animated character.
 :xwhatevah:

To be honest, at first i wasn’t sure how the discussion would go,
whether it would be boring,
whether we would run out of things to say, etc.

It went as well as i could have wished for!
I actually had so much fun yakking with them 4 on stage that i didn’t even *think* about how much time we had left.
I even raised my hand to answer some questions i wasn’t delegated, just because i wanted to speak up!   :xsilly:
Such a teacher’s pet wahaha

Because my memory is horrible and i’ll prollie mix everyone else’s answers up,
i’m just gonna note down some things i said.

Q: How would your notebook function, look, and feel – five years from now?

Seeing we were asked to go all out and be creative,
i said that seeing we now use two hands to type on notebooks that are getting lighter and smaller,
who knows, maybe in 5 years time we’ll have a laptop that can be affixed to one hand so we can walk around while doing other stuff.
Because time is money yo. (I didn’t say the ‘yo’ obviously :p)

Q: What do you think is the single most amazing technology innovation ever introduced to mankind?

At first i was thinking the obvious answer is the internet. Then they told us we couldn’t say that 0_o
Macam social exam okay, thinking what to say so you won’t sound stupid in public.

I came up with two answers i liked but told Will i’d only say one.
“You can say both!”
“Nah, it’s okay, i don’t think everyone would be interested in my second answer… so i’ll just say one.”
“Okay, what is it.”

I said teleportation.
Will then urged me to also state my second answer and i spoke about the new telescope that’s invented, how much more we would know about ourselves, other planets and life.
After babbling a bit too fast and excitedly for a while (i’m NOT sorry i LOVE THE UNIVERSE OK!), i realised the room had gone rather quiet, not knowing how to react to my statements >.<
So i laughed it off going, “See! I told you people wouldn’t be interested..!”

I can’t remember anything else i said worth mentioning here except for how a scientist invented a machine (although a bit slow for now) that lets him Tweet by thinking.

All in all, i had a lot of fun hearing everyone else’s answers,
pitching in my own,
and judging from the crowd,
they didn’t look bored at all either!

It’s so easy cos you can blog about anything that’s a trend!
Blog about what people like, what they don’t like,

It can be an opinion about something.
Or something that is not part of everyday life just yet,
but you think will be very soon!

Here are some Blog A Trend topics in case you don’t know where to start:
– Future of “Thin & Light”
– Future of “Touch”
– Future of Personalization
– Future of Design
– Future of Environment
– Future of Entertainment
– Future of Music
– Future of Fashion
– Future of Social Media

+ + All dresses sold out already except Fairy Wild + +

This is probably the third time i’m selling something online.
Truth is never really bothered much… cos it’s time-consuming,
there are so many blogshops around,
and the $ is not much.

And to be honest, i can’t help but calculate how many hours i’d spend on selling it,
but the $ isn’t worth it to me :p
Time is money! (Time is also happiness that money can’t buy   :xlaughing: )

So take this as a present from KinkyBlueFairy,
cos i’m not going to do this again for a long time!

The dresses below are of good quality (material and stitching).
All materiel is thick (not al cheapo stuff) and stretchy   :xlaughing:

Fairy Wild

Fairy Wild - Brown

Fairy Wild - Brown + Gray

A dress for the more daring. Don’t know how many of you would actually order this so we’ll see!
Two colours available: Brown and Gray
RM85 each and would fit Sizes UK6-10 (You can see in the picture it’s slightly loose on me, i’m a size 8 )
