TomHayton expressed how he wanted to shoot portraits of roughly ten random people in KL to form a series for an exhibition See his (very short) post here
When i told CherubicCho Tom was going to do some experimental shots, Cho went, “That means you’re posing nude!”
Not nude la idiot. See.
Tom’s concept is to talk to the person till they forget they’re actually in a shoot, so they end up smiling naturally or, as exemplified in the picture above, i was deep in thought about CNN (or was it CNBC?) reporting that FB is reputedly worth over 8 mil USD now.
Actually no la. I was thinking about lunch.
If anyone is interested in sponsoring the rest of the series, please email him at tomhayton@gmail.com (Btw he didn’t ask me to write that, i did so solely on my own basis okay)
What someone DID ask me to write *cough*pietrofelix*cough* about is Mix FM’s Retro Mix Party

“The first ever Retro Mix Party is coming to Maison. Come and meet Ika, Serena C, Pietro, Ross, Sham and our new announcers, Jay Menon and Jojo Struys.

Where: Maison, Asian Heritage Row When: Saturday, October 20 Time: 11pm-2am
I’m Being So Distracted
from cleaning my room and doing whatever else i’m supposed to be doing. I seem to be in a funny mood. Turned down a few parties and ffk-ed PugKevin for Armin tonight cos i just feel lazy/tired/stormy weather making me cosy/want to psych myself further to sort out room
I sent Kevin a picture of my room to let him see. He replied with “People like you make me think my room is perfect” (or something like that) and ended with ‘Thank you.’
-_-
I asked NickIsTaller to help me move out my desk (cos i don’t even sit at it anymore) to make more space “Well, first you have to move the stuff out of the way right. -_-“ “I know la, i know!”
Mummy inspected my collection of handbags i lay in a line in the hall “How many arms do you have, you tell me.”
-_-
How can a woman say that to another? Sacrilegious.
As i sift through the mountains of press releases, CDs, clothes, bags, presents that i love, presents that i’ll never use, free gifts from events, more clothes, accessories, even more clothes, art stuff, books, cards, wire, paints; the thought of getting a place to call my own was being pondered on even more then ever before.
Buying an apartment is something that most of my friends in their late 20s are doing, so it isn’t something that i feel pressured to do. Plus since moving back home early this year, i love seeing my family and dog for even a little while a day. There’s less petty fighting. More communication. Deeper understanding. More tolerance.
Some friends complain that they want to move out asap because their parents keep on asking them to come home early and they can’t bring people home. Well i don’t have that problem because my parents don’t babysit and breath over my shoulder, and i don’t bring people home.
The grown up part of me went around asking close friends like LaughingLoga who’ve just acquired new property how much was down payment, monthly installments, etc.
Then over dinner with the girls this week, we all discussed we’d try to obtain a place of our own by next year (reasonable right? i think it’s a reasonable time line goal…), whether we’d rent it out and maybe we’ll rent out everything and all stay in one and have a bachelorette pad.
This will be hard… have to take less holidays and shop much less. Think of the return in investment, Joyce! Think about it!
Sigh.
The hippie part of me is wishing i could just move around the world and work as i go along.
….
My brother just saw me online – “Your room cleaning plan tergendala already ar.”
“Four thirty. I’ll clean my room,” i told Daddy confidently at 3:50 pm. He guffawed at me, “I’ve heard that before. Too many times.” And walked away.
-_-
So four thirty, i went upstairs…
Fell asleep on my bed and dreamt about Facebook -_-
I did eventually start at 6pm. So much junk! I stared around at all my possessions thinking, “Gawd… i just have too much stuff! A room isn’t enough… i need my own apartment or something!”
I’s torn with having to throw away a fuchsia party whistle. I swear… after i throw this away, an occasion will arise within the next two months where i *need* a party whistle and have to go buy one!
Managed to obtain some walking space in my room. And ended up coming downstairs to waste time because… it’s already 8 and i can hear the party bells ringing!
I am going to clean my room. Today. Erm, later. I MUST. Tripped on unpacked luggage from Bangkok and Perhentian twice yesterday and almost fell against my shelf. Danger danger.
I had SO MUCH fun last night. Mainly because i was off and i didn’t have to socialise *for* work. I socialised however and with whomever i wanted. So nice.
Lam is a sneaky bastard (it’s okay, he’s switching departments so i can call him a bastard now haha!) and managed to pry a very dark secret from me in a very sly way. Will post up piccies later.
The internet is fantastic in the sense that i can stalk people on it. Was reading this dude’s blog, as i barely know him and we’re going for dinner next week, and i got bored after reading two pages.
But then again, i was thinking, Of all people, *i* should know that you can’t judge a person based solely on their blog.
Because you might adore a person’s blog, but dislike them in person, and vice versa.
To all my Malay friends and fellow Malaysian collecting duit raya and/or taking advantage of the food/holidays
Here’s a super teeny bopper bloggy post:
I woke up at 11:15 today and suddenly remembered that i had to get ready cos of a shoot with Tom at 12. Totally forgot! Thank god i didn’t oversleep! Rushed packed some outfits and drove over to the studio in Hartamas. Hate studio makeup. So thick. Hate hate hate. Brenda, who did my make up, said i have very healthy skin (wee!) but i have dry skin under my eyes (boo!) and that i was very prone to lines now 0_o
Shoot took about 3 hours Then met up with PugKevin and ChristianCleo for a quick juice before seeing RyanMukati for wine and bacon strips at Jarrod & Rawlins Went for massage after Gonna have forty winks before saying hi to Rudy in Decanter for his birthday, followed by AhHoong DozyDidjital then StephC
