The weather has been two extremes every day in KL
Early half of the day will be FREAKING HOT (today the temp outside my car in Bangsar was 41°C!)
Then at about 3pm it’ll start storming to the point i’m apprehensive about driving
Been in a mad rush to get things done before my big trip of the year!
Thought Spain was my ‘big trip of the year’, but i guess not!
Running all these errands like
getting my road tax done,
getting new glasses made (lost my old ones, got new balenciagas and my power has gone up anyway),
changing currencies to USD, euros and pounds,
sending dry cleaning,
picking up my US visa (10 years! yay!)
Also a busy weekend as i’ll be hosting the Hanger event at Luna tonight,
and the pole-dancing charity event tomorrow.
I’ll be flying to New York this Sunday night thanks to HP! 
They’re sending me for the SATC 2 premiere!
I’m SO lucky i know!
The only other person they’re sending besides me is Ivy, editor at The Star,
so i feel really really fortunate that i’ve been invited as a blogger 
I LOVE SEX AND THE CITY!
Used to blog about it so much when i first started KinkyBlueFairy
And who knew it’d be possible for me to attend its premiere in NYC!
Arghhhhh supersexcited!!
2nd thing i’m excited about is meeting Tim Gunn (from Project Runway)
I had to contain my squeals when they showed me my schedule over a lunch meeting just now
(ok so i didn’t contain my squeals. i squealed. in public.)
3rd thing i’m excited about are the museums and shopping!
After NYC, i come back to KL for 2 days,
then i fly off to London for 6 weeks!
In the middle, i’ll be going to the Isle of Wight fest, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, and maybe Prague (haven’t bought tix yet)
Out of London, i only know friends in Copenhagen,
so i’ll be winging the other places alone and ber-adventure sendiri!
I’ve been wanting to do summer in Europe for years…
but never had the money / time.
And now it’s finally happening…
In a way i’m not feeling it yet, cos it still seems a bit surreal.
But i’m sure that’s to stop when i have to pack.
‘Tis gonna be a fashion challenge to fit outfits for 6 weeks,
and still have space for shopping (i’m bound to do)
So now you know… for the next 2 months,
this blog will be all about NYC and EUROPE baby!

I woke up at 7am on Tuesday
so that i could leave home at 7:45am
and reach the US Embassy by 8:50am to apply for my visa
Noticed the gorgeous sunrise for the first time from the apartment balcony
Despite the many complaints and flaws we bring up about KL,
i’m sure many of us heart KL heaps anyway.
(Think i’m being emo bout KL cos i’ll be away for 6 weeks muahahaha)
Anyway, wanted to say that i’ve NEVER experienced morning traffic in KL city before.
“Never?” asked Terry (when we met up reg. a comedy he’s doing in KLPAC in August)
“No. Never. My previous job in the city required me to be in by 10:30am, so i always managed to skip the jam!”
All i can say is: the traffic was HORRENDOUS!
A few people told me i can get from Hartamas to city centre in less than an hour for sure.
No man.
At 8:35am, i was freaking PRAYING IN THE CAR OKAY.
Thinking FUCK MY LIFE UPSIDE DOWN i’m going to miss my interview slot and not be able to go to New York because of the jam, this is crazy! this is unfair! i left so freaking early somemore! i wonder if i can park my car here and RUN there? NO! it doesn’t make sense! i’m already on jalan ampang! i’m so close! OH MYGOD!
Super stress sendiri in the car.
I didn’t even tweet cos i was THAT upset and stressed out!
In the end, there’s actually a line outside the US Embassy where ppl register to go in,
so i was slightly late,
but there were others in the same time slot as me (which i didn’t know about)
so PHEW!
Gave thanks to the Universe after that for hearing my insane spew of begging.
I don’t know how people manage to combat traffic like that day after day.
It would depress me terribly to have to sit in an almost-stationary car
and stare at row after row of other almost-stationary cars.

Went to have lunch with AshleyTheMonkey and her friend Jean
at Citrus in BVII after being at the embassy for 3 hours -_-
And back to her shop to hang out for a while.

I had a friend over recently,
cos she wanted to let out about some problems her man and her are going through.
Story i’m sure most of us have heard before:
Couple in love,
one is Muslim,
the other is Catholic,
one decides they should end it cos there is no future
(as both parties refuse to convert).
I’d say a problem like that sinks in more
when i’m talking to her for 3 hours
and knowing every detail of their relationship and its problem.
Clem came home from work while we were still chatting,
and tried not to blink an eye at the half-bottle of whiskey on the table
and tear-stained face next to his girlfriend.
In the end, he got asked his opinion on the matter as well,
so he sat down next to me with a beer in hand
and took over my Aunt Agony role.
After my friend left,
i was SUPER nice to him.
Heated up his dinner, brought him beer, water,
washed the seedless grapes i bought for his dessert,
agreed to watch Titanic with him (HAHAHA).
Him: “Why are you so nice to me today?!”
Me: “Whaddaya talking about? I’m ALWAYS nice to you -_-”
Him: “Yes, but you are EXTRA nice today!”
Me: “Well, i was thinking Mondays could be Nice-T0-Clem Days.”
Him: “Aww”
Me: “And Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays are Nice-To-JOYCE DAYS!”
Him: 
Truth is, i guess i was being extra nice
cos i was appreciating the fact how we didn’t have to fight about the topic of religion.
No doubt, we’ll have other things to fight about in the future.
But for that night, i hugged him and quietly said, “I’m glad we don’t have to worry about the religion part in our relationship.”

I’m at the Curve at least once a week to grab a bite,
have a meeting,
or run some errands.
Last week tho,
was one of the few occasions i went there for a fashion show.
The Curve‘s Centre Court was transformed
to exude a springtime feel complete with vibrant splashes of green.
Heck, even most of the guests wore green that night,
and i took the opportunity to grab some close-up shots of their threads,
while waiting for the show to start:
“Fashion represents an integral form of creative expression which explains its importance in every individual’s daily lifestyle.
Our focus is to ensure that shoppers can turn to the Curve to satisfy their fashion cravings to look their best.
On this note, the Curve goes to great lengths to organise its Fashion Week on an annual basis.”

the show started with a couple of dance performances:

Last Friday, SmallSerena and i fathomed how we could get
from an event in KLCC to another in Mid Valley
during FRIDAY RUSH HOUR
and be there on time.
But somehow we did!
And we even managed to squeeze in
- visiting some Hermes dresses in Aseana
- and buying KFC to wolf down on the way there.
(fashion + food = <3)
Miraculously, there was no jam;
and (also miraculously) i managed to not spill any sauce on myself while eating 2 pieces of their new black pepper chicken (it’s like Hot & Spicy, but less spicy and more peppery, if that makes sense)
Arrived just in time to catch Natasha going up for a short speech
I was really looking forward to this year’s one,
judging from last year’s stayed-for-4-hours,
got-really-drunk,
and played-with-glitter episode.
This year’s selection of photographs was again curated by Kenneth Goh
and features work from the lenses of world class photographers like >
Karl Lagerfeld, Simon Upton, Camilla Akrans, and Gyslain Yarhi.
Had flutes of Mumm’s while flitting about
doing 5-minute catch-ups with different people
Yuri, Xandria, Sonny
Raymond Choon
SmallSerena, Joseph Teoh, Clem, Kenneth Goh
Sometimes at events, Clem will ask me what certain people do out of curiosity’s sake.
Other times, i just offer up the information.
“That’s Kenneth Goh, he’s the Fashion Director of Harper’s” i told Clem
“Ah, i see! I said ‘what’s up’ to him.”
“You said ‘what’s up‘?” *scrunches eyes imagining scenario of bf talking to Kenneth like his homey* -_-
MareDiva
Saw Cris and gang.
By the time i bumped into them,
i was skipping towards *girl 3rd from right* going,
“Safetypin Samanthaaa!“
Somehow the drinks that night
reduced my age level by 22 years >.<
Magie
Abbi
Ha, i have an interesting story about Abbi! (well interesting to me anyway!)
I was saying hi to his mutual friend, when friend suddenly turned to say hi to someone else
(some events are like speed dating, except the more accurate term would be speed socialising)
so Abbi and i looked at each other,
and introduced ourselves.
I think our conversation was love-at-first-sight from the start.
Bantering, screaming, pouting in pictures… MFEO!
Somewhere in the middle of me telling Abbi how much i loved his polka dot shirt,
Clem accidentally bumped into me, so i gestured towards him saying it’s my boyfriend.
My new-found MFEO then nods, “Mm-hmm”
in a disturbingly appreciative tone.
Wondering what he’s staring at,
i follow his eyes to see him staring at Clem’s ass,
who was bending over to pick up a drink near us that was on a low table
Which is when, i decided,
I CAN’T BE MFEO WITH SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO GRAB MY MAN’S ASS!
and
I BETTER WATCH OUT FOR THIS ONE! *SUSPICIOUS*
So that was Strike 1.
Strike 2 was when a few of us were discussing 18-SX stuff,
and Abbi told Clem something along the lines of:
“She doesn’t know what she’s doing. Call me.”
And Clem just laughed.
-_-
Funny is it?
-_-
I have a feeling there will be 34398 strikes to come.

I love all the shots!
Not sure whether all the guests actually took the time
to walk around amidst the partying to admire them
but i did.
And dragged the poor man with me too.
And also got carried away (blaming the bubbly here!!!)
trying to ber-model with the pictures
ok i thought she was having an orgasm face. but i obviously saw wrong.

Went to the Blueprint tent two Saturdays ago to check out the booths and fashion shows in the afternoon
Spotted these exquisite leaf pendants cast with 99.9% silver
by a most friendly elderly lady called Marilyn Tan >
She explained to me in great detail how she crafted them
and how each and every one is different.
You can contact her at info.marilyntjewellery@gmail.com
I’s super excites to see Vice & Vanity had a booth there!
Been a huge fan ever since Jessica Ling wrote about them on TIC a couple of years ago!
Blurry pic = shaking from excitement
Aaron Kao + Vivi Lim from Vice & Vanity
Bought a necklace (obviously!) at 50% off at SGD85
which i wore to the following shows that night.
Wish i could buy more but i really really have to control myself a bit for shopping in NYC and London >.<

Everyone who asked me how my trip to Singapore was got a super enthusiastic answer from me:
“Surprisingly… i think this was one of my best trips to Singapore! I think cos it had to do with fashion and ’twas my first time going to Singers for a fashion thing.”
It was a wonderful experience,
well-organised (as everything in Singapore is :p)
and seeing Singaporean designs just blew. me. away.
I think it was a GOOD THING i didn’t have much time to visit all their stores and booths,
else i’d be much poorer upon my return to KL.
Great job on the Asia Fashion Exchange
especially Audi Fashion Festival, Singapore.
And hope you’ll bring me down again next year
