And now I'm really all by my lonesome. It was pretty sad the last time we hung out, I was supposed to have lunch with him but my casting got delayed like mad and he went home already. But it was going to be the last last last time I ever got to see him so I jammed all the way over to Kepong intrude on dinner with his family.
We just stayed in his room all day and watched stupid videos on Youtube, laughed non-stop, vained and talked about everything, things I forgot to tell everyone else.
I couldn't send him off at the airport because I would've died. My heart would've literally stopped. I can't stand airports, I always think I'm fine, I always think I won't cry then I end up hysterical and everyone mocks me for years after. Its not that funny. Every time I show someone I care they turn around and bite me in the ass.
Had their album for some time but it took awhile to completely absorb it, now I'm in love.
Because I've been meaning to post this for a long long time. Haha.
Made this in the middle of the holidays when I was super bored. Saw the exact skirt in mermaid green in MNG, only it cost RM359 and it wasn't even long enough to cover my ankles. I don't like ankle length skirts, plus I like wearing heels with maxi skirts only they need to be long enough to partially cover my heels yet not too long that I'd trip on them.
So the obvious solution was to make it myself. I bought two meters of fabric in this lovely cobalt blue color from Kamdar and started snipping away. I got someone to the materials for me because my sewing machine can't do it but I did the cutting and the sewing together myself. Combined, it probably took me 2 and a half hours or less to finish it.
In comparison:
MNG Skirt = RM359
2 meters of fabric = RM18 Zipper, hook and thread = RM3.8 Hemming = RM1.5 In total DIY Skirt= RM 23.3
Total saved = RM335.7
Like a baws! :{
Because it reminds me of Blondie's Heart of Glass.
"They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock,
These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose,
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface."

PS: I don't know what happened to me. First half of the year I could count on one hand the number of times I bought clothes, now I just keep spending. =/
Still contemplating whether or not to bother showing up for class tomorrow.
I have a show at Great Eastern Mall at 4pm and class at 3pm. I keep trying to find out the venue of 10am's class but the timetable is so screwy I don't like looking at it. It's only been a week but I'm so uninterested in the subjects, I feel so restless in classes, all I do is daydream about where we're going to go for lunch and what I'd order.
On the other hand, the weekends was great. I won best catwalk in some makeup competition I was hired to model for (Don't ask me why models get prizes too, I wasn't complaining for sho!) also was so blessed to be part of Keith Kee's 10th Anniversary Gala on Sunday, 50 foot long runway with 45 other models. I was sitting backstage surrounded by racks and racks of gorgeous gowns thinking"I must be the luckiest girl alive."

Because I am a camwhore :P While waiting for my dad to pick me up from the gas station at 12am at night.

PS: Runway photos another time, but the runway looks amazing. :)
I do want to write, but every time I do it comes out in uncontrollable torrents that I eventually keep to myself. I think it's due to the books I've been reading, it's very emotionally draining to read books (Ernest Hemingway finally!) and my usual spunky self is reduced to a silent figure in the corner in deep thought.
Class started, two months ago I was looking at the calender thinking "August will NEVER come!" before I even had time to breath June and July just whooshed passed and I'm left attempting to adapt to the early mornings I'm required to be up and alert.

Just photo's from the event, because I like my dress very much. I'm rarely given the chance to dress up yet not feel like a sore thumb sticking out.
The runway was bloody cool, right smack in the middle of the ice skating rink in pyramid and we all sat on chairs on the ice. Only halfway the ice started melting and my toes were shivering like mad, but I got to skid on the ice like a 5 year old when the show was done which made up for putting up with the cold. :D

PS: Will be walking in Keith Kee's 10th Anniversary Grand Gala show at Renaissance Hotel on Sunday. I feel so lucky. :)
