Ah Those Were The Days
I miss being back in school.
I remembered how retarded and lame i was back then, wait a minute; i think i'm still all that. Alright let me try to refine that phrase. I remembered how over retarded and unethically lame i was back then (oh well i guess this might work). Husni, the-not-so-small-young-boy-who's-nadi's-and-sofi's-cousin, was snooping around my archives and telling me a hoot i was in writing those entries way back then.
A hoot? Oh boy.
Did i mention that i was retarded? Oh yeah, twice as a matter of fact. Honestly, i've always thought my entries back then were my mundane, ever so nocturnal posts cause i hardly blog when the sun is up, with bad engrissh (i think now too), even i think the singlish was bad enough to make people barf. Opps, i think my cat just did. :/
Point proven, BIG TIME.
Anyway, Husni made me reminisce the past, i dive right through my archives and began to dug out the interesting facts that i list down in the world wide web. Oh boy, it was atrocious, horrible and relatively unbelievable. They say, the old stuff sounds way better after reading it now. Geez, but one thing is for sure that is sentimental enough for going through the old posts were that, i was pretty carefree then. I blogged about my friends almost daily, on what i do, on what i eat and everything else that matters to me under the damn sun.
My blog is turning 5 in May.
5 years of expressions. The good, the bad and the ugly. I'm surprised that i'm actually still blogging right now. I virtually can see that how mature my posts are now compared to the years of B.C. heh. Well, not ancient history as of yet, but it sure will be in 2090! (why 2090... bleah!) I'll dominate the world with my life story! If it'll ever made that far haha. I'll put a note in my life calendar.
The days back in design. Those are the days that i made friends of all sorts and the ones that actually colour the pages of my biography. I am more than thankful with all the friends i made back in design school, they are who i am now. I'd like to thank Husni, that not so little brother of mine hahaha for making me reflect on my past. It was all good. Even the bad that was back then, seems positive now. Ah.. now this puts me in an emotional state of joy haha. YAY.
Design school ended their orientations last week, thanks to Sarah for the live feedback and congratulations to Temasek Design School for gaining the Best Spirited school award, cause being the best of your spirits, brings out the best of you.

Weekends, Not So Much Of it.
Hello people of the virtual world.
I just realised, i can only manage to pin down my thoughts relatively, once a week. Ah. I've been busy. The hectic schedule seriously is drowning the shit out of me. Let me see, my last weekend were gone because of the damn ball, this weekend, i spent half of the day in the office rushing the Jimmy Choo drawings. Next weekend, i'll be heading down to Vivocity for a 3 day event for Levi's (which is unprofitable and non-beneficial to thyself). The Labour Day weekend, i'll be having another 3 day event at the newly built Tampines One for some Topshop|Topman styling whatever but thank god Anny will be there, so i won't kill myself with boredom and solace.
Well Jimmy Choo is on the 28th at St. Regis, but that's a weekday, but it'll be freaking jammed pack nonetheless. Bah!
I've been craving mexican food so much lately that i bought tortilla wraps and pita breads to whip up some mexican fiesta for myself but obviously i do not have the time for that. I've been craving for alot of things lately that sometimes i wonder if i'm pregnant :/
Oh i had casting the other day for Levi's and bumped into Christabel! It's been a while since i saw her because the last time i met her was a year ago back in camp. How unfortunate is that, to meet a hot girl in the surroundings of horny green cladded men. It's weird that i was casting her for the show because obviously i'd be bias hahaha. But truth be told, i really thought she was the best of the lot. She fits the jeans nicely and had a terrific catwalk compared to other models that were present. Oh well, it's all up to the client!
I've got taco's and guacemole on my mind this very instant.
It's 645 in the evening right now, and i feel like sleeping all over again but i've got digital imaging to do for work right now. Oh well. See you guys in a bit!
"...tonight is the night..."
A Night At Capella
Capella Hotel was dope. Well the entire ball was dope. Though i was working, i managed to mingle with the richest of the richest in Singapore. I was introduced to Dick Lee, Denise Keller, Ashley Isham, the Melwani's, Giorgia Lee, Phillip Morris, the owner of Georg Jensen, etc. I was taken aback actually with all the A-List people that came. I was in a frumpy blazer that has nothing to wow about but these guys made it down in their Gucci's, Dolce's, and what's not. It was amazing.
It was 1am, these tai-tais were partying hard, with the open bar and dessert counter, i was sitting at one of the dinner tables looking upon these middle aged people dancing their asses off to the tunes of Lady Gaga (trust me, i was shocked with the song choice). A waiter came up to me with a glass of martini. Well, i'm allowed to drink even though i was working but i thought personally it wasn't right. It came from a socialite called Cynthia Lee. She was sitting alone adjacent from me. Honestly, i didn't know what to do there and then. Do i walk up to her or do i give a nod of thanks from a distance?
Haha. All these were just so surreal. I've got my colleagues slumped in our given rooms waiting for the event to end so we could tear the set down and here am i, getting drinks, well just a drink from this relatively pretty but mature lady. I took my martini and gather all of my courage and went up to her table. I just introduced myself and such, i'm nothing more but "the people behind the scenes". Well, she just laughed and offered me a sit. The room was still banging with music, now tunes from another era haha.
I did mentioned that her name was Cynthia Lee right?, but it was so loud, i couldn't hear what she was saying most of the time, also i've got my walkie talkie earpiece stuffed into my ears. I complimented on her white chiffon greek goddess Versace dress. Somehow or rather, thoughts ran through my mind, thinking wah sehhhhh this must be how a toy boy feels! WAHAHAHA. Imagine, if i were to get serious (not in a relationship of course) i'd be showered with gifts, money, etc. I'm for sure certain she's rich, well to me anyone who attended last night's ball was definitely the creme of the crop of Singapore's finest. Well, we chatted for 15mins, before i took my leave and joined my colleagues in our room somewhere near the ballroom. Haha.
I made my exit and again thoughts were running through my mind. The night was interesting, i've been called a gentleman a million of times by various women and boy! was i flattered. But the socialite that offered me a martini, was definitely the most memorable experience i could have, well experienced haha.
The party ended at 3am and tore down began right away. Both me and my colleague decided to rest the moment the tear down began because the contractor convinced us it was under control. We retreat to our villa, yes a villa. A villa like no-other to enjoy our slumber. The next morning, the ballroom was cleared of all the mess! The contractors were definitely onto his words! Hahaha.
I headed home, dreadfully because the villa was heaven on earth accompanied by its very own private pool. Hahaha. Lugged the steamer and dresses home because i couldn't be bothered to drop by the office cause i'm dead tired. Oh well, i can't wait for for work now! Haha.
"...book of dreams..."
Let me see. DKNY show is this Saturday, together with Passion Ball 2009 at Capella Hotel. Next week, hmm I've got a medical check up on Tuesday and Levi's shoot on Thursday. I'm pretty am much done for the work except for the occassional meetings around the island. Next NEXT week, i've got a 3 day Levi's show at Vivocity and Jimmy Choo's at St Regis. Not forgetting Audi Fashion Week is coming up in May.
So i'm pretty jammed up in times to come. Com'on guys book me early for meet up! Well do book me, so i got reasons to leave the officer early hurhur.
