Juice/Izzi Thingamajig

I had a fantabulous time last night
Went for the Juice event at Izzi

InYourFaceTini wanted to wear her jewel green Guess by Marciano
“Do you think i’ll be overdressed?”
“It’s always better to be overdressed then under-dressed.”

I threw on a bubble dress with reddish patterns
But i just wasn’t *feeling* it which is a rare phenomenon after i’ve already put something on

I felt like black last night
So i changed in a hurry

The girls took a pic of me in… the bathroom of all places -_-

I’s so happy to introduce my college mate, holiday buddies, drinking kakis, gay diva and colleague all to each other
And they all got along marvelously too
*beams in delight*

Okay, i’m gonna take a disco nap (©Angie) before heading out

“What Are You Gonna Wear?”

Came the same question whoever i’m going to a party with, plagues me with every week

“… i don’t know, i just woke up.”

A nap on a rainy Friday afternoon is the best.
Plus i was in an extremely pissy mood.
Too pissy to do anymore work.
I couldn’t connect to the wireless on my bed.
And just fell asleep listening to the rain and thunder pounding outside.

Woke up feeling MUCH better thinking, “It’s time to go out and play!”

Wineaholic

Saved this pic Nick aka Ganjaguru chucked onto my Friendster yonks ago
Claimed he saw it and thought of me right away

Was doing my usual habit of going through folders (and folders and folders) of photos
And decided to chuck them up

My technique (or rather, lack of) of not editing the pictures bloody nicely anymore is giving me WAY more time to put up WAY more pictures
So not so pointless anymore *hurrah!*

This was a few weeks ago when SmallSerena asked me to teman her to a Kerastase event @ Zeta Bar
She asked me to wear a cocktail dress
At 4 pm
0_-

“It’s at 4 o’clock..!”
“It’s an afternoon cocktail thing, *i’m* wearing a dress.”
“You want me to teman you wear issit…”

I thought i didn’t have anymore new dresses to wear
Shows how i don’t even know what i have magic my closet is when i pulled one out

Felt quite alcoholic (shut up i know what you’re going to say!!) sipping on champagne in the afternoon


Me, Emmeline, SS

Lazy.
Took one picture only.
Unlike SS who took many many.

Didn’t plan to, but went for a Wacoal thing @ Equatorial after that
I seriously damn tak sempat masa cos SS wanted to change (’cos by golly! How can a celebrity wear the same thing to two events and get their picture taken and published?!)
And i changed too cos Sa’s birthday do was a jeans thing

Macam nak glamour tapi pada hal i don’t actually have a 100% valid reason to
Heh

Lookee that!
We didn’t realise we were all wearing primary colours till we took pictures
Poor dude had to take the same shot from all our cameras


KinkyRedFairy, Elaine, Pouty SmallSerena

3M-Mel was there, i cocked my head to read what was on her sash - Miss Malaysia/Universe - and started sniggering, “Eh beauty queen… wearing your title huh!”

She said she had to for the event and asked me to shut up.


I like this picture of her
Not pretend-posey

Couldn’t stay long and ran off to the Shang for MadcapperMelissa’s birthday!
When i saw the invite that it was in the hotel, i thought, “Wah, okay, she got a room.”

I thought it’d be in one of those conference rooms or something.
Small, private party.
I didn’t expect it to be the grand ballroom.

The grand ballroom.
For your birthday.
And i thought me having half of Somo was spectacular…
Next time i’ll have ALL OF SOMO!!! *flings arms wildly for effect*

Okay crazy-talking in the middle of the night.
Back to story.
Not much story, just alot of happy dancey pictures.



MadcapperSa and her brother Joe with his son
I still protest against being called ‘Auntie’!!!


SalsaJason aka MamboJays
He has a blog bout salsa cos he’s so passionate bout it!
*here*


WhackyDaph, Mui, moi

SalsaJason, Nino


The Birthday Girl and me
Am i taller?
Am i taller?!

NuttyNefta and SalsaJason


My big forehead

WhackyDaph: “Gimme a wine!”
MadcapperSa: “No! You’re not allowed!”

Preggers not supposed to drink.
Maybe one glass or two. (i could be so wrong here!)
I sure mati when if i become a pregger.

There were performances during dinner

Sa singing with Ella

I didn’t take a picture of the girlies dancing to Fergie’s ‘Glamourous’!
That song never had much impact on me before, but after that night, everytime i hear it on the radio,
Image of a group of hotties dancing on stage is conjured up instantly


SalsaJason kidnapped my digicam that night
So most of the pictures are by his royal courtesy

Fairy: “We’re good girls right?”
NuttyNef: “Duh. Eh, is Jason taking a picture? I’d better look damn good okay! Else i’ll whack him nicely…”


I gave Nef a frower.


Ida and Harold


Farah (was dancer that night, woot!), Nef, Nino


Getting a peck from your male friend isn’t gay.
It’s called brotherhood.


Mmm… i don’t know what we were trying to do… 


NuttyNef like a (grinny) gangster.
WhackyDaph like a showgirl.
Me… don’t know how to open my damn chinese eyes.
-_-

*HAIYAK!*

NuttyNef’s smoke-inducing karate move.

Jarrod & Rawlins.

I like.

I usually frequent the one in Hartamas but wanted to go to the one in Damansara Heights for a long time now
Fetched KinkyPug there to meet the rest

“You have to show me the way.”
“I think i know…” he replied

We got lost.
:p

I just drove around till he saw a building he recognised and shouted damn loud
“OH MY GOD! THANK GOD! WE’RE HERE!!!”

Never heard him sound so relieved before…

Puggy in pink.
MareDiva in lipstick red.
 
Steph is Mare. *inside joke*

I like tapau-ing my leftover food back home
So whenever i’m doing work in the middle of the night and feeling peckish, i just heat it up and munch away

I neatly left half my chicken + avocado sandwich to tapau
Till someone decided she wanted to demolish it *stares meaningfully at diva*


Because Red Rocks…

I Have A New Cert

I still can’t find my SPM cert (not that i seem to need it at all)
And instead have slowly collected a pile of certificates related to more fun things!
For climbing Mt. Kinabalu in 2004
For bartending from Martell
For life drawing in London

And the latest addition - Defense Driving.
Disclaimer: Defense Driving does not = to Improvement in Spatial Awareness

Company sent us for the course in Shah Alam
I followed TylerTheFairysitter from behind (of course, ‘cos i don’t know the way.)

They work us hard.
So hard that we take forty winks any second we can get.


Poor us. 

After watching very disturbing accident videos and pictures at the tutorial, we were all to convoy to the track, where we’d have our practical

20 plus cars of only two models.
No problemo.
I can easily spot and follow any of them them fine on the highway.

So off we went.
A traffic light broke our neat procession.
Right at the front of the traffic light was… me.
0_o

I gazed at all the cars zooming off into I-Don’t-Know-Where-We’re-Going in slight panic.
Shit. Shit shit shit. Are all the cars gonna follow me now?
But i don’t know the way!!!

Through the rearview mirror, i could see the line of company cars behind me.
Die.

So i called Tyler.
Faithful ol’ Tyler.

He gave me directions.
I followed them.
And missed the turning while on the phone with him.

“I’m supposed to turn left, right?”
“Yeah i should be able to see you soon… oh shit you just missed it!”

I whipped my head to the side to see the small turning on the left.
And we both started cracking up on the phone cos, hey, Joyce just missed the turning, and everyone was following merrily behind her.

Fantastic.

After leading them further up before doing a U-turn, we managed to all park at the track.

“Eh, who was leading the way la?”
“What the fuck, went one round.”
“Not me!”
“It wasn’t me!”

I walked up towards my team.
They all stared at me.

“Should have known it was you!”
“If i knew it was Joyce leading i wouldn’t follow!!”

“SORRY!!!” 

 
InYourFaceTini’s shoes
She helped me do my claims yesterday

They spread oil and water on the track for us to swerve + spin on before trying to regain control of the car

My car overheated and i called Lam to tell him
“Guess what happened to my car!” i blared in distress
“… Don’t tell me you crashed it…”
“No la, the engine is overheating -_- “
“Phew.”

Will take pics of the lavender + beige one soon
Belts still available, must tell la which colour you want (black, dark blue, red, light gold)
Sorry to those i haven’t replied yet bout the belts

Puggy asked me to put this up

Been really busy
Torn between getting the shots for the dresses done or go sailing this weekend
Damn damn damn
Choices choices…

I Thought Of AzwinAndy

While I Was Peeing

Because ‘Itu Kamu’  was playing in the bathroom at a hotel
-_-

ShoppingStory #29483

Having the discipline to avoid going into Key Ng for a few months now, i gave in and trotted into one of his outlets at The Curve
And spotted the most darling little corporate dress there
Sleeveless black with stark thin lines of bold colours running down it
I tried it on despite it being an ‘S’ (Key Ng’s ‘XS’ fits me perfectly)
It was too big

I suggested aloud that perhaps, just perhaps, i could get it altered
QueenKanch went behind me to gather up the loose cloth
“Cannot, cannot. You have to alter so much, no point.”
“Sigh.”

They sold out in XS in black, and  in white (i would have resorted to the white), and in all their stores (made the staff call the other stores)

Out of desperation, i called Key Ng himself, thinking that MAYBE he’s got an extra stashed somewhere
“Don’t have la… we have very exclusive number of pieces… next time you must go earlier!”
“Argh!”

This is what happens when you abstain from window-shopping and *then* go
Your size runs out due to popularity

I took it a bit slower, and tried my best to relax one weekend
It was sunny, then it rained, but i didn’t mind ‘cos i had my chirpy stripey umbrella from M&S with me
I feel really chuffed everytime i carry it   

FaiTheMai got checked out of the hospital and QueenKanch fetched him to have banana leaf rice with DramaNadia and i


Fai all strong again.

DramaNadia reading the business section.
It’s a lawyer thing.

QueenKanch trying to avoid my digicam.
I is too quick. Yessssss

Went to thread our eyebrows
Looked through some of the boutiques and refrained from buying clothes
Failed from refrain when it came to shoes
Went to Kitsch to show DramaNadia the other shoes there

I picked out a MrMen shirt to show them
“Hey! I wanna buy this! It’s PERFECT FOR ME!!!”

It was:

They turned around and choked before laughing super loudly

What i really should wear is

SupaFookFrancis wore it to my birthday and i wanted to steal it off his back

Or maybe

I am definitely

:p

DramaNadia wants

but they don’t have it

QueenKanch should get
     

This is perfect for BlackChickJessie or i:

I was telling LaughingLoga how BlackChickJessie is more champion then me
I thought i was the Utter Klutz
I can trip while walking on flat road (i have. And hurt myself badly too >_<)

But BlackChickJessie takes the cake!
We were in the meeting room, all listening to DikTracyHau or someone talking
She miscued the wall behind her
And stumbled while standing still

….

I’ve never in my life seen someone almost fall down  while standing still

She looked around to make sure nobody noticed…
And saw me pressing my lips from chortling at her

So cute.


Chin Kong Yee

I’m so bad with names
Lagi a Chinese name
But i *can* remember Reza Ehsan’s name..!
Loved his designs at the Icon show @ Cenfad last week
Will blog those pics when i catch up with them (if i do)

CherubicCho took me to his sis’ gallery a few weeks back for an exhibition launch
*Wei Ling Gallery*

I’m all for kitschy, whimsical, happy art (though i do admit i fancy Goya’s stuff)

This is my favourite.
Just could never afford it.
:p
Called Merry Go Round (duh)


This is their doggie downstairs.
Cho knows me well enough… and he prollie knows i’m saying ‘doggie’ cos i forgot his name


I took this from downstairs looking up at the ceiling
A fire ravaged the building years ago, and they decided to keep the old floors that had holes burnt through them
With a transparent covering over it
So cool kan?

Blue sky from one of the paintings upstairs

     



The spa expert.
The everything-also-she-wants-to-do.
The student.
The model.
The kindergarten teacher.

Wanted to put up these pics for so long but lack of time!

Girlie night out is the best.
Scrumptious food, wine, desserts and of course, rib-tickling crazy laughter and decadent stories.
But the stories are secret *shh*

Also, it’s so tough getting us all out at the same time due to schedules and such.

I don’t have a sweet tooth so i wasn’t as crazy crazy over the arrival of the desserts as much as the others, esp. DhanyaTheMonkel

But i have to admit rather sheepishly that after having a bite of the Pavlova and the Pear & Ginger Upside Down Pudding
I’m a goner

We all adjourned to Velvet after that to dance to Mambo
The music is so temperamental nowadays… one minute they’re playing happy retro, then suddenly rock a bit

Breaking our groove la.

Okay my arm looks kinda freakish here.
Aps looks like Elastigirl.

Piling our handbags next to us allows dancing with abandon.

Oh yeah.
We DANCED SO MUCH all our feet hurt the next day!
We didn’t even need alcohol to dance!
Everyone was just so hyper crazy happy already!



“Are my tits not big enough?!”
They are darling, more then enough.




SpankyCammy likes it in the middle.


Jamie joined us for a bit.

Dhanya danced so much, i should call her the Duracell Bunny!
Hmm. That is possibly a better cartoon name for her.
She didn’t even drink a drop that night!

But even Duracell Bunnies’ feet get tired.
Us giving our tootsies a rest:


I look like a pregnant woman hovering above them -_-

Okay look at the picture.
I didn’t even notice it at first myself.
Doesn’t Dhanya’s head look strangely detached from her body?


Totally man.

That’s cos it wasn’t her!


Oh Spanky One fell asleep waiting for us to take the picture

Can’t wait for the next one.
It’s like an adrenaline rush that’s healthy for you.
Easygoing laughter, crude jokes, nonsense dance moves that we manage to convince people are cool.
