Less than 36 hours, i will be in BALI BABY! (it has to be said with enthusiastic accent i’ve been spurting consistently, SpankyCammy does it as well )
So before that it’s a bit suffering – finishing work, making sure other things are settled while i’m gone.
But soon… soonnnnn i will be in Bali (one of my favourite places in the world!) with four of my favourite girls in the world!
Just the five of us for five days.
In a villa.
With a private swimming pool.
And happy colourful props and toys and streamers.
Accompanied by the sounds of Disney and all happy indie rock music we’ve accumulated.
With shrooms of course.
Trust me to be your friend.
Trust me to laugh at your jokes.
Trust me to cry when you weep.
Trust me to be by your side should i feel you need me.
Trust me to visit you at the hospital should you fall sick.
… And trust me to go to the wrong hospital cos i’m so blur.
One of my darling girlies has been in the hosipital since last week (erm i won’t write her name cos i’m not sure she wants people to know).
Seeing visiting hours end at 9:30pm, i tapaued myself duck rice for dinner and headed to Assunta Hospital (or so i thought).
Damn. Big hospital… er… which way should i walk…
0_o
I headed for the nearest desk i could spot and asked, “Excuse me, where’s Melati Ward?” “Melati Ward… there’s no Melati Ward here…” “Eh?” I checked my phone for the room she’s in, while the couple of staff looked on. “Well… she said Melati ward…” Oh no… “Is this Assunta hospital?” “No. This is University Hospital.”
I heard laughter burst out. Of my own mouth. I heard me laughing at myself… In front of strangers.
0_-
If anything, i think they thought i should be checked into the hospital.
Grinning a sheepish thanks and sorry, i quickly left and picked up my phone, “Babe… i went to the WRONG hospital, fuck!”
I had one hour before visiting hours were over -_-
She: It’s okay… i feel your love, i feel your fairy-ness, you don’t have to come… Me: No! I’m so close! I even bought dinner to eat while talking to you!
I hate driving in PJ cos i always get lost, but thanks FaiTheMai for giving me fantastic concise directions.
I made it there in the end.
So… i’m not the right person to ask fetch you to a hospital if you’re suddenly ill and need to get to a particular one for insurance’s sake.
Prollie fetch you to the wrong one then HL.
I’m not sure whether you remember SarChan and i playing Mariah for you during our set cos you were… very happy to say the least.
Bit shout out love to PassedOutBen, whose birthday was today.
Thanks for coming to Cloth & Clef with AhHoong to listen to my happy music.
Though by wearing your black BAXX shirt there, i feel as if you’re trying to steal happy people to the dark side.
If anything, AhHoong has come to the dark side cos he started blogging! Haha! *click here*
I’m wearing the blue hat IceCalvin passed to me last night.
We bought it in Bangkok and he’s been holding it hostage since.
This won’t be a long post cos i have other work to do, will blog a niceeee longgggg one this weekend. Maybe. If my semangat still there :p
me, AshleyTheMonkey, SarChan
Ash is wearing this gorgeous top with stars that flap around.
Initially, when SarChan and i were playing the first two tracks, we were like, hmm. What do we do… la la la… cos not many ppl were there yet and we weren’t ‘feeling’ it.
After a couple more drinks and few tracks down the line (to happier bouncier ones!) we started layaning diri and Ash got a shot which i took from FB.
We didn’t anticipate that only one of us got to wear the headphones at a time (wearing them and fooling around with the CDJ is so much more fun with two!) so had a system where one works, while the other busies herself with anything else (yeah i’m busying myself dancing here ha ha); then switch.
PassedOutBen: Where’s your headphones? Me: In my bag.
POB: Why you not wearing? Me: It can only hook up one… so we take turns la.
POB: Don’t care, wear only! No one will know it’s not hooked up! You have to look busy! Just wear it and act stressed! Me: wtf
A nice surprise was all the fash industry boys came out to play!
So rare cos the only times i get to party with them is during and after fashion events.
Other nights they’re shooting/designing/sewing.
I left my camera with them for half an hour.
Half an hour okay.
It came back to me with over FIFTY pictures of themselves cam-whoring.
0_o
Can die.
KrazyKatKyan was shouting,
“Okay! Pose! Think Spring Summer! Spring SUMMER!!!”
Then we’d all (tipsily) pose freaking shamelessly but it was super funny.
And that was just when i was around them -_-
So because i have sooooooo many pictures, i need more time to pick and blog okay?
One last picture before we tutup kedai for mention of Vice Modern Disco – founder Ethan Chuuuu!
Love the shorts Ethan.
Mmmm sexyyyy

Had a shoot today with New Zealand designer Jimmy Lim (who was also partying crazy at VMD )
I’m going to slut him on my blog > urged by Jimmy Choo (YES. THE Jimmy Choo 0_o) to give Malaysia a go, Jimmy came to show in KL last year and has worked with Datuk Bernard Chandran on some projects.
We’re both wearing designs from his SS08 collection called Fashion is Boring.
Can’t really see what i’m wearing but you’ll see it when the shoot’s out, don’t think i can say much about it now so i won’t.
“How’s your schedule like this week?”asked JustinYap. “It’s packed. Tomorrow work all day, 7pm adidas event, leave around 9, get to cloth and clef by 9:30. Thursday work, lunchtime i have to go for a shoot, go back to office, after work rush for dinner gathering. Friday work, 7pm Bebe event.” “Oh my god.”
“I know right 0_-“
The best line of the day (actually a lot of stuff he told me made me shriek and cover my face but it’s too juicy to write here :p)
We were discussing other genres of fashion, like streetwear.
Justin: I don’t understand why they’re so expensive. Me: It’s a different culture altogether la.
Justin: I know one brand… Brotherhood… Me: Brotherhood?…. *thinks*… you mean… Neighbourhood issit…
Justin: HAHAHA yeah Neighbourhood!!
I couldn’t stop laughing.
POB will die when he reads this.
Brotherhood… HAHAHA!

3 random pictures from past 7 days:
Had wine and guess what it was called?
I *had* to take a picture for you!
********
Been painting for a project that will be exhibited in November.
Stepping on my paintbrush = paint on tapak kaki = ticklish to clean off.
I dunno la, i layered and layered. Let it dry. Layered some more.
Then i realised it looked too complicated (read: like someone shat on it) when i stepped back.
Rectify.
Headache!
Oils are fun, but pencil is definitely easier to manipulate!

SarChan and i have picked our happy indie girl powerpop songs for VMD tomorrow.
RowdyRudy liked our selection so much he ripped it unto his Mac.
I voiced out over dinner to RowdyRudy that we had an absolutely bratty Saturday.
First, i was supposed to go Skytrex but because of the constant raining, it got cancelled.
Consoling ourselves with pollo lasagna and fettucine carbonara, VicG and i went to watch Deception after that at 1U.
After the movie, i rushed off to meet RowdyRudy in KL to go to the Matta fair in PWTC to holiday-shop.
Now, everyone knows that we it comes to putting the two of us together, it’s like madness and mayhem on a trip.
Going into that fair was, in his words, “Putting two kids on crack in a candy store.”
And oh my god. Our eyes were darting everywhere in the halls at all the signs screaming numbers, destinations and possibilities of where money can take you.
So guess where we’re going…
First, we’re disembarking at port klang…
Then we arrive at Penang…
Then Krabi…
Then Phuket…
Then Langkawi…
WE’RE GOING ON A CRUISE BABY!
Wide skies filled with stars at night!
Endless sea!
Different beaches to roll around and laze on!
For one whole week!
We went to celebrate our buy after that at Flam’s with French wine Charles recommended, oysters, chicken liver mousse,wagyu beef in cheese, and veggies.
As we cheered to our upcoming cruise and giggled like kids on the ADVENTURES we were going to have, the delectable food and wine added to the holiday high in our heads. Moving on to talk about work and ideas for future projects, i said to him, “Hey we work like shit, but we damn well know how to use the money we earn!”
