“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?   :xwinky:
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!

The theme of green

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.

Haha.

Okay i’m pooped.

More Magic Dresses Please

“When did you go shopping?” asked DidiBuli, as i showed her two new dresses that had been delivered to me in the office.
“I didn’t… i *cough* got them online… while i was surfing… >.<”

You can keep the internet girl away from the stores.
But you damn well can’t keep the stores from the internet girl.

I saw these psychedelic crazies on Honey Pumpkin last week, and even though they were *sold out*sold out*sold out* (god, the way she writes it is so… final and depressing), NadiaPumpkin ordered me the orange and pearl ones. Tankius  :xlaughing:

I call them my magic dresses.

ma, it's moving!

Roads in KL

There have been two things that are recently more of a pain lately regarding the roads in KL.

if you momentarily forget about your surroundings, the sky brings some serious peace/positive feeling action
One are the potholes.

Is it just me, or are there bigger and more potholes of recent?!
Ashley said it’s because i’m driving a new car.
But i swear i never cursed and avoided so many potholes than i have been for the past few months.

Second, are the insane traffic jams that have been taking place of late (i think its due to merdeka stuff, Ahwin thought its cos of a riot).

Making my way out of the city for meetings and back are such a PAIN in the ass.
I can take the waiting but i hate how i waste time in the jam.
Music makes it bearable and almost, enjoyable (if i’m taking a slow drive home).

There was this moment when the sun was glinting off roofs of stationary cars, MGMT was playing and i couldn’t help playing director (layan diri in the jam la y’know, what else am i gonna do :p)

I showed DidiBuli and she said i’m asking for an accident.
I said i was going at 20km/h la!

 :xshy: *looks at sky guiltily*

Streething Plays Dirty

On another note, ThatGirlCynthia smsed me while i was at work, saying she saw a picture of me next to someone’s pubes on Streething.

0_o

Those sort of announcements give you a bad feeling in the pit of your tummy.
Accompanied by thoughts of, “oh gawd… please don’t let it be something really bad. nah… it won’t be that bad. how bad can it be?”

It’s not SO bad.

What happened was, hell, all i did was go for Lapsap at the Loft Zouk on Wed, put on James’ (AdamPoserPan’s friend down from uk) cap on for a bloody TEN seconds, someone shoved a camera in my face, i went something like, “hey… no pictures..!”

And then see what happens.

A picture of me wearing a cap that reads “Play Dirty” goes up online next to a picture of some dude’s pubes sticking out of his jeans.

 :xwhatevah:

 :xwhatevah:

 :xwhatevah:

meaning of: misleading

I play dirty?
Streething plays dirty!
(i’ll get you back for this…*mutter*mutter*plot*plot*)

You know what this is called?
It’s called - Damn Misleading Dot Com.

-_-”’

 

How Now?

I decided to take Shane and Carmen home from the office after there was a Tortoise Emergency end of last week.
Jolene told us one was missing and we (April, Sarah, Clouds and me) RUSHED outside to look for it.

AprilPikachu spotted it amongst the rocks.

“Is it… dead? Maybe it died in its shell,” ClaudiaOnCrack said, peering closely.
“Clouds! Some optimism please!” i breathed exasperatedly.
I didn’t want no dead tortoise on my hands.

Weekend i didn’t get to take them home cos i passed out and didn’t get the office key off Adlin.

Today i spotted them trying out some circus escape stunt and ran to grab my camera.

Almost... there...

What the… 0_o

So i took them home today and asked my mother, “Hey, can i keep my tortoises in your tank?”
“What tank. I don’t have a tank.”
“Your tank with the plants?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I don’t have a tank.”
“Your… pot then. The big pot outside with the plants in,”
i rephrased.
“…”
“Where you used to keep tortoises?”
“I don’t keep tortoises there anymore.”
“Well, yes, can i keep my tortoises there..?”

I swear this is how most of our conversations go -_-

“I don’t want you keeping tortoises in the house.”
“Why?”
“Someone told me it’s not good.”
End of story.
Er… okay…
“So you’re not keeping tortoises cos of superstition?”
Silence.

Confirmed end of story.
Hey. I’m all for superstition.
I just never heard of that one before.
Shall google it up.

So now Shane and Carmen are homeless.

How now 0_-

 

Fairy Finally Kaput.

Sorry you guys whom i said i’d be at Heineken Impulse tonight.
I finally couldn’t take it especially after only 2 hours sleep, and being on the go since 7:15 am.

Spent an hour plus in the freaking Friday evening jam from Jalan BB to Jaya One for a wip meeting.
Had two beers during meeting.
And was falling asleep driving another freaking hour and a half back into KL cos i wanted to drop by the office.

That was damn dangerous.

So i called RR who’s supposed to go to the event with me, “Hey, i’m damn out, i need you to drive tonight.”

And i never, ever ask him to drive on any night prior to going out.
So i headed to his house to park my car and got Tianna to open the door.
You know you’re good friends with someone when you can crash into their house even when they’re not in.

He got back a few minutes later and asked me to wait for fifteen minutes.
I said okay.

I don’t know what happened, next thing i woke up and saw two things -
1. It was past midnight
2. Rudy going, “Oh. Finally.”

I don’t remember this but he said what happened was:

RR: Do you want to go now?”
Me: Yeah… I’d better get up… before… i ZzzZZZzzzzz*”
RR: … Joyce?…. Joyce?………….

He said i was dead to the world.

:p

 

Suddenly I Have New Pets

Me and my big mouth,
i offered up the idea of having two tortoises with the letters ‘TIC’ painted on their backs for the launch tomorrow (alongside vase of flowers and fairy statue)
And i wasn’t (really) being serious, but they remembered it in a meeting,
So besides rushing getting the new site up,
I had to prep tortoises to be put on the registration table?!

I planned to get them at the neighbourhood pet shop,
But it was impossible.

For real.

I was taken up from morning till late at night and there was no way i could escape to go buy tortoises,
So i asked AshleyTheMonkey to help me buy a couple ’so the other won’t get lonely.’

I also asked her to help buy a vase at the same time to put flowers in (that Justin Yap is helping buy) just to make it more cheery.

“How big do you want the vase?”
“Half a foot high?”
“That’s not very big.”
“It’s big enough la.”

We launched into how big the vase should be.

“From floor to ankle?”
“No, that’s too small! From floor to middle of shin.”
“But shin is… *goes one to describe*”
“NO. That’s not your shin!”
“Isn’t the shin… *blablabla*”
“NO! Your shin is… wait. I don’t have TIME to tell you what your shin is!!!”

-_-

Totally lost the plot i swear.

I went to pick the tortoises up from her in a combination meeting of having a Guinness.

“Can i meet you at —–? (sorry i like keeping where i hang out private now ha ha) Then i can have a Guinness and pick the stuff up from you as well.”

So we did.

The tortoises are called Shane and Carmen.
Cos they were both seen humping each other (apparently) and they’re both female (cos they have long tails).

Yay!

i have lesbian tortoises.

“What are you going to do with them after launch? I can keep them if you want.”
“No! I want to keep them.”
“Okay…”
“I can talk to them!”
“Oohkay.”

************

So yes, i’ve got a new haircut and spent most of the past few days receiving comments from people that they don’t recognise me.

Which is all fine by me!

Remember me, not by my hair, i say!

So this is BarbieMui and i.

New do >.<

And this is interpretation of what i look like, as tagged on Facebook by Noel -_-

-_-

I couldn’t stop laughing wei.

 

Another New Do + An Awesome New Series

Got another new hairdo yesterday.
Due to lack of time, Milcah just cut it instead of springing new surprise colour as she’d planned.

I’m still getting used to it…

You know who i look like? SueThePixie..!

Wei Chien + moi

I thought a few hundred bucks would suffice the outing.
After 2 hours, i peeked into my wallet to see… 7 bucks.

0_o

No ATM nearby and not enough to buy another beer even.
Even if i found 3 ringgit on the floor, i wouldn’t have money to pay for toll on the way home okay.

-_-

So i looked around thinking whom do i see often, so i can easily borrow 50 bucks and pay them back.
Hmm.
I knew half the people downstairs, but shy la, somemore god knows when i’ll see them next (and whether i’ll remember!)
So i went upstairs… and saw Blink.
Aha!
Confirm see the fellow this week.

“Eh Blink…”
“Yeah,” he looked up from his decks.
“Can i borrow 50 bucks  :xlaughing: i spent all my money shopping! >.<”

****************
The peeps from HBO contacted me recently cos their comm director was down from Singapore and wanted to meet me.
Whenever i can, i do schedule meetings (usually a rush dinner or drink one!) to share with them about blogs and (sometimes) their wondering how i can work with them on whatever project, product, and in this case, program they’re promoting (Man, that’s a lot of Ps).

After our dinner, they gave me a media bag of Flight of the Conchords stuff including the first four episodes of their series.

Flight of the Conchords

I didn’t mean to write about this at all.

But i had to.

Because.

The show.

Is.

Fucking.

Awesome.

I volunteered it up to watch while RowdyRudy and i were hanging out.

“Haven’t you heard of Flight of the Conchords?”
“No.”
“What?! *goes into detail on who they are*”
“No…”
” *stares at person who’s supposed to know stuff like this cos he’s on radio* You’re so uncool.”
“Oh shut up miss Vampire Weekend!”
“HAHAHA”

We popped the DVD in and watched it.
And boy, did we laugh and laugh watching it.
At points, we had to go back a few seconds cos we missed what they were saying on screen due to us laughing so loud.

The boys flow into song mid-acting and the production, lyrics and direction are hilariously wicked.

We haven’t laughed so hard watching a show in AGES!
Not even for Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay.

Flight of the Conchords

“You know, i bet the HBO people gave me this DVD hoping i’d write about it, and now i WILL cos the show is TOO fucking awesome.”
“Yeah man, they got you there.”
“There are only four episodes though.”
“That’s just fucking evil. Why are you doing this to me?!”

We’ve watched two episodes and keeping the other two for next session.

 :xsilly:

Flight of the Conchords - HBO series. Rocks.
Remember, you heard it here first.

 :xwinky:

*FOTC will start airing on HBO early September
