Something comes along ...
Boy am I glad I decided to go ahead with the show, which is also the final bash for Singapore Fashion Week 03. It was quite fun, albeit totally wacked and hilarious fashion. The theme is "Toy Us" ..hence the psychedelic (bordering on childish graffitti) stage decors and recurring personalities associated with schoolkids such as the drag-queen flaming teacher and school boys.
I was told to be there by 2pm even though the show only starts at 10:30... for those uninitiated, YES, it really does take that long a time to organise everything; the choreography, the costume, the makeup and hair et cetera. Met quite a few good lookers, some of them snobbish though. There was the 14yo Chinese girl from Elite, 1.85m and stick-thin, very androgynous. Her colleague from the same agency, is a 17yo guy of Aussie and Japanese ancestry; shorter than me but extremely unique look (kinda Devon Aoki). He already has 2 huge tattoos and a nipple ring, while his tshirt says "GAVE IT" ...hmmmm I wonder. Then, there is this farken huge and butch guy who was busy chasing all the girl models. There is alot of female models from Germany and France, but only a few of Caucasian male models. Apparently, they are quite the passe now. One of my highlight was having dinner with a table full of these models including Gerald Wong himself hehe.
Zouk was already packed by 10 and I was quite nervous. But anyhow, the whole sequence seems to happen so fast I didnt even notice. It was fun though. It could be all the vodka mix and JUGS of long island they were feeding us the whole day ( since 2pm mind you) and even though I usually don't drink alcohol in that quantity, I had to that day because apparently its more troublesome for them to serve water. Anyhow, the organisers were later reprimanded because the models ended up looking so flushed they looked like they overdid their blusher.
Anyhow, it was a great experience plus I got paid, got free drinks and best of all, a free membership to ZOUK!!!! Ahuh, people have to be put on waiting lists to get one of this babies (unless u are SIA cabin crew or have other connections I think).
Partied the whole night at ZOUK with TT at the AJ corner, while he fuels up with the free drinks coupons I was given. Met KT again ... I swear that is how small the island is.
Saturday night, got invited to a pre-party at 'someone's" place with like 20 or so muscle-bois. I swear taht is ONE SCENE I do not wanna get involved in!! Left for WaterBar to meet up with TT ... ahummm more free drinks there LOL. Decided to check out ZOUK again where Terry Francis from London is spinning. This guy we met got me and TT in for free again, and yeah free drinx again hehe. The music was soo fab tho ... but too many late nights ... ageing ageing ... must preserve must conserve .... 3 people already thinks I am 25 yo sigh.
