Ummmm....

What do you do when you open your boss' notebook and the header reads: Audio Visual Issues at Clinique?
a) Automatically transcribe minutes to read the correct word: Clinic.
b) Marvel at how in touch he is with his feminine side
c) Tsk at how he has never been able to tell the difference and really, you should know better than to be suprised by now...
d) All of the above.

CNY was teh HAWT!

... and not even in a good way! :(

If reports are to be believed, it was 36C in the shade in Taiping.
TAIPING.
Once the wettest town in the whole goddamn country.
36C in the SHADE.
Fuck does not begin to cover it.

We hid in air-conditioned rooms (where available) and took umpteenth baths a day. What rain there was only made matters worse (read: HUMID). I had to wear sunblock in the house! OMFG I am SO brown now.

Being home with family was of course, terribly wonderful and wonderfully terrible. *laugh* Absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that!

Tue - met up with old friends & gambled till 3am.
Weds - drove back to KL & had dinner with some friends & chatted till 3am.
Thr - worked, tried to sleep, but for some reason, slept only past 2am.
Fri - worked, partied till 5:30am
Sat - worked, yoga, partied till 4:30am
Sun - woke up @ 7:30am to sms my cousin that I wasn't coming for his fucking dawn breakfast, went back to zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Oy.... I don't recover as fast as I used to! *laugh*
The days when Pauline and I used to party till 5:30 and go to work the next day (and repeat ad nauseum till the weekend, when we *still* partied but didn't have to work!!!) are *SO* gone.

The week after CNY was peppered with company dinners and department lunches and CNY lunches with vendors, etc. I can NOT look another yee sang in the face! I am *so* keeping to a clean, refresing, simple diet for the next month or so! *laugh*

Simple diet (she says, googling for the choc lava dessert she saw on the food channel last night)... *giggle*

Welcome home Doreen :)

She's home and she brought pressies! :D
Dark Choc Biscotti... SIGH... entirely TOO yummy & COMPLETELY sinful! I don't know whether to thank her or berate her :P

Nick got me a Gorgeous Amber pendant. Doreen *swears* there's a dead insect there (Jurassic Park style!) but I've been staring at it till I'm cock-eyed and I still can't see anything! *laugh* I'm ecstatic in any case! Thank you Nicky baby! :)

We're going for a mani-pedi t'row, and maybe clubbing tonight. :) I'm so excited :)

Honey I'm home! :)

I'm home from my food trip to Penang!
I seem to be having too many of these... *laugh*
This last one was with 6 other colleagues.
Made many many stops.
Great fun, but I'm Exhausted.
More later.

Nota is Spanish for Note

I've just watched "The Sing Off" and am *entirely* enamored.
Vincent recommended it yonks ago, but I've just only watched it.
It's a Heady celebration of A Capella in all its glory.
I love love love!
And my favourite team won :D

Suit Musical

Barney Stinson.
Musical.
About Suits.
OMFG
It's BRILLIANT!!

Men in TuTus

I had the BEST time!!

They are ENTIRELY Hilarious!

Les Ballets Grandiva was a Perfect blend of technique and down out slapstick comedy. They were obviously Excellent dancers, classically trained, with a well developed sense of theatre and comedy.

The 13-man troupe regaled us with a pas de deux from Satine, The Dying Swan from Swan Lake, a 4-person bit from Tarantella and a bit about 4 Divas who were hired to dance on the same stage. The guy who put that together was obviously not someone who’s used to thinking! The entire 2^nd half consisted of Act 2 from Swan Lake, which was BRILLIANT!

The dudes dressed like dames batteried, pirouetted, plied and fouetted their ways into the stars in our eyes and the shaking bellies of our laughs. That they had dancers bodies, was an added bonus! There was this one guy (who was actually *playing* a guy) whom I called “Mr. Nice Buns” for obvious reasons. *giggle* Some kindly stayed in costumes for photo ops after.

If you’re ever in Pentas 1 of KLPAC, try to get seats in the centre portion of row Q. They are Really Good mid-price seats, with a nice view and no row behind you to kick your seats. Close to the exits too!

They said they’re coming back again for another round of performances later this year. If you haven’t seen them yet, you MUST!!
