Exactly a year ago, Joyce emo-ed in the office

I’m sitting here listening to Pulp’s ‘Like A Friend’
I’ve done this before and i will do it again
I’m tired
Worn
Stubborn
Aching

I had a wonderful night having cocktails at Frangipani on Thurs night and going back to my HappyPlace after that
The thought has been swimming around my head for awhile and it really is true:
It would be damn ex to maintain the lifestyle i have if not for my job and friends
>_<

Out of my pay, i fork out to pay back credit card bills, dentist bills, and today - driver’s license bills
(yes i’m 22 and am halfway learning to drive after being chaffeured around for half a decade >_< )
So anyway, upon calculating how much it actually costs me to eat at all the nice restaurants, party anytime/where i want, stay at the HappyPlace, have gorgeous cocktails on weeknights, shopping once in a while… IF i had to pay for everything… fuck man.

I’d be living in a cardboard box selling off My LIttle Ponies for money and food.

0_o

Appreciate.

AshleyTheMonky,
You’d be pleased to know that i’m continuing taking my driving classes (tho it kills me to wake up at 7:30 am on a weekend) so maybe, just maybe, i’ll be able to drive by the time you come back ;) and try to make up for the 102048302029 times you fetched me around  :D

Oh, oh.
My first driving thingy i went to was my undang lecture = 6-hour long torture of trying not to pass out.
Upon signing into the class, i had to write my IC number down
830414…
I looked at the other numbers
They all started with 89

… 0_o …

Okay okay i know i’m a bit urm late in doing this and probably the oldest biddy in the class
I walked in and slumped into a chair, wishing for it to get over with asap
Fantastic me didn’t bring a pen.
Or even a notebook
-_-

Great.

Today, i tried to come up with numerous excuses to skip the lecture:
I forgot to bring my card to sign in
I’m wearing a skirt, that’s noT okay right? Why don’t i come next week…
My eye hurts…
My driving instructor so didn’t give chance man
:p

I ended up almost falling off my chair while passing out to the max

Vogue Kicks Ass

I just got back from a food review at Vogue @ Uptown
The food is seriously awesome
Will blog bout it another day ;D

Lynnzter smsed me last night
“The rat in O’Sushi is still here. Gag.”

I don’t take to sms-ing very well, i think it’s a waste of time when you can just chat on the phone and its faster, so i called her to verify instead

“Eh! What do you mean it’s still there?”
“I’m here having dinner now and someone just screamed…”
“ahaha! Don’t wanna listen to me somemore la!”
“How i know… you wrote it got caught already wut!”
“Obviously got more then one right!!!”

See.
It really IS INFESTED WITH RATS.

YUCK.

Anyway gonna go Masjid India to buy a sari with QueenKanch and Nadia now
Hope it won’t be awfully jammed
Then will review cocktails with CareBearJoanne (ah sucH is my work hee hee)

then TAG BABY!

Vanity At Its Best

Taken by KevinHan with Celine’s assistance ;) in my HappyPlace
Since i have nice shots taken of me, obviously i put them up to be admired right
-_-

 

Oops stupid xanga took so long to upload the pix i gotta run now

Anyway, last night was wild… too wild for me >_<

RainbowGayDave was being a REAL HO and making out with my straight friends in Liquid
Wtf wei
He made out with LaughingLoga
Then PassedOutBen
Then LL and POB made out with each other

I’m honestly fucking traumatised

“I seriously feel like i need to go for counseling wei.”
“Now only you feel you need it?” laughs LaughingLoga

-_-

POB tried to appease the situation today
“It wasn’t me making out with him. …… …. It was the *beer* making out with him.”
“… i have nothing to say.”

Then RainbowGayDave tried to make out with AdamPoserPan too

Thank god Adam doesn’t drink and therefore is rational enough to push Dave away

BLEAH to you Dave!!! *sticks tongue out triumphantly*

I win.

Exactly a year ago, Joyce put up party poppy pix

Of Rats & Rude Waitresses

Just got back from watching Just Like Heaven
Bumped into JoChick from The Star in Megamall during lunch

I was apalled

at a huge motherfucking rat that was caught in O’ Sushi while the editorial team and i were there for lunch
It reminded me of Gnaw and was stuck to the sticky paper that had been placed on the floor near the kitchen door
Soft squeals from the waitresses were quickly hushed by the manager as a waiter came to pick it up

Gross

Then PrincessAnna caught sight of it and screamed damn chat loud
Attracting even more attention haha

One of us asked this Indian waitress who was pouring us green tea
“So did you all kill the rat?”
And she didn’t answer even though his face was freaking one foot from hers!
She did however give a crooked smile when CareBearJoanne piped up,
“Ignorance is bliss.”

How terribly rude of the waitress!
At least bloody answer
and say something normal like ‘oh the situation’s been taken care of bla bla bla’ instead of ignoring people as if they’re a piece of kayu talking

Stupid.

Then Ian started putting ideas in our heads of rats running on the cooking utensils at night
Having their own jolly funfair when all is dark in the late of the night
Grossing us out even more thinking what if the cooks don’t wash the wok before cooking. Ew.

Plus they don’t even know how to do damage control
To apologize to the customers, cut our bill in half, whatever
Knowing we’re never returning to the restaurant again,
I suggested we sing ‘Beware Of The Rats!’ while skipping out

 

We’re never going back

to O’Sushi again


Rats and rude waitresses. Nuh-uh. Not our thing.

We pacified ourselves by getting Starbucks next door to cleanse our mouths

About a year ago, Joyce partied with her queer folk

Ghetto Last Thursday

was awesome, so to speak
Not crowded and happy clappy people drinking and dancing

MaryBerry and QueenKanch took fucking ages just getting out of the car and walking to the club
First they forgot something, then Mary wanted to put something in the boot, then while they were both doing that, Kanch stepped in a bit of water and wanted tissue to wipe it off, so had to open the car doors again -_- Then the car park guy had no change.

I was giving my  mata sepet look  at them the whole time wishing AshleyTheMonkey was there to share my exasperation

MaryBerry is looking sexier and sexier nowadays
I’m not sure whether QueenKanch looks miang or sleepy…

BlackChickJessie was WILD that night   

Lam was drunk and singing along to the songs
“Wow! You know all the lyrics! Cool!”
“No la, just pretend only! Nobody can hear wan!”
*continues singing loudly*


Fairy Spoilt

KinkyPugKevin and i were pottering around Kinokuniya on Saturday afternoon
I introduced him to the wonder of children’s books and we spent ages there

I hopped to my usual corner of fairy storybooks to see what new ones they had brought in
Upon setting my eyes on a new big one, i grabbed at it excitedly

“WAH! Damn nice right!!! WAHHHHH!!!”
“Hmm yea it’s quite nice, get it la.”
*turns book around* “Aiya, i’ll buy it when pay comes out la. Spend money on other things first!”
“Oh okay.”

Then we separated ways
I went to pore over photography and fashion books upstairs

As we walked to Chinoz On The Park to meet AdamPoserPan for wine,
he held out a Kinokuniya bag to me
“Oh, what did you buy?”
“It’s for you.”
“Huh?!”

He bought me the fairy book on the sly to give to me!! 
That was so fucking unexpected!!!

I jump-hugged him

Behold.

My fairy book!!!

It’s illustrated by Cicely Mary Barker of www.flowerfairies.com

*happy sigh*

I am so fucking spoilt.

I read the book out loud in the dim light of Chinoz
“…a flower fairy is 5-10 centimetres tall!…”

AdamPoserPan and KinkyPugKevin continued their conversation, totally ignoring me
That’s okay. I babbled along happily to myself
Adam turned around and waved for the waiter
I thought he wanted to order something extra

“Hey waiter? Waiter? Do you think we could sit in separate tables please, yes, one just for her.”


 

PrincessAnna & i

PrincessAnna and i went for a food review the other day
Which totally sucked ass, ’nuff said.

Vainpot Anna and poser me in the sunny tea room -

Someone said we look like ‘tai-tais in the making’
We wish
Then we wouldn’t have to work anymore and just spend the rest of our lives traveling, eating and holiday-ing

The wonder…

*snaps out of it*

Oh Finally LA

I just put the pics up
Even tho it’s later then the story heh

K, see below was when PassedOutBen wanted to show me the shoes he was dying for
This was MONTHS ago btw, his latest pair  was just purchased two weeks ago -_-

The Tiffany Dunks. Oh Joy.
I mean, okayla, i also go gaga over certain materialistic things
But not until…

Damn obsessive right?
Then when i kept on insulting him about it, he’d just go:

When he got the shoes, i noticed a phenomenal coincidence -
His treasured TiffanyDunks are the same colour as the MyLittlePony sticker i stuck in his car!
(there used to be a fairy sticker but it peeled off ‘because of the sun’ he said hmM)

“Oh wowee! Your dunks are the same colour as my pony sticker! Haha!!!”
“Friend. Do not. Associate. Your pony. With my shoes.”

See?! SEE?! See what i mean?!?!
PassedOutBen has too many shoes

And these aren’t even all the Shoe Photos in my pc
I’m just too lazy to hunt for the others, and i found these with MINIMAL EFFORT

POB smsed me last night
“I bumped into some girl i didn’t know. And she called me passed out ben. Can die.”

So next time, ask him to ‘Stop Buying Shoes!’ instead

And together, we can all work together to help PassedOutBen overcome his obsessive disorder

     


 

PassedOutBen 2nd Edition was posted up a year ago - *click*

PassedOutBen & His Obsession

I was buying a top at The Curve the other day

Got an accidental curry stain on my white top

Stains are totally rational reasons to buy a new top

Walking around in stained clothing is slobby full stop

 

I tried on an ‘S’ which is usually my size

When i came out of the dressing room, PassedOutBen asked

“So how? Buying ar?”

“Erm no… i wanna try on another size first, this one a bit too tight la.” I said meekly

“What size is that?”

“S…”

“Cannot fit ‘S’ meh?”

“It’s prollie the brand, i usually buy small.”

“You know what this means right.”

“It means this brand is abit different la the size.”

“It means you’re in denial.”

 

 

He went to buy ANOTHER pair of shoes in Showroom on the day before his birthday

 

“Eh i want to see something at Showroom.”

“Again?? Haih, okay.”

 

I know by now that *every* time he says that, what he *really* means is he’s going to buy something there

 

When i saw him at the counter, i started freaking out

 

“WHAT?!!??! Another pair of shoes?!”

“It’s newwwwww!!!” he squealed excitedly

 

-_-

 

So every new pair that comes out must buy la

 

-_-

 

Since it was his birthday, i cut him some slack

“Okay la… is this your birthday present to yourself or something.”

“Yeah!” He answered enthusiastically

Then i remembered the Tiffany Dunks

“But you just bought a pair last month…”

“…so…”

“So your birthday is every month la.” I was fucking sarcastic so the max, i swear

“…”

 

No answer from the birthday boy

Yay, i win

 

Shaking my head, i looked over at the box that the lad behind the counter was packing

My chin jerked up and i stared at the big-eyed lad

“From now on. You are noT allowed to sell anymore shoes to him.”

I put on my sternest expression, wagged my finger at him and pointed at PassedOutBen

And repeated myself haltingly for emphasis

“Understand? You. Are. Not. Allowed. To. Sell. Anymore. Shoes. To. This. Fellow.”

 

PassedOutBen retaliated

“Oiiiii”

“You.” I turned to him. “Keep quiet. No more shoes!!!!!”

 

The guy behind the counter laughed

“Ya la… next time we’ll put his picture outside… banned.”

I couldn’t help laughing with him

Obviously PassedOutBen didn’t share the humour

 

Anyway, it’s not like as if Showroom is going to put that sign up

Which idiot would ban one of their best suckers oops i mean clients
