April’s gone, and I’m back again

My posts are few and far between, my last one was in March and April went by as quickly as it came, without a single line from me. I need to put in more effort to write, gain a strong and permanent audience, and become famous! No, not really.

As I correctly predicted (not like it’s that hard, these things happen all the time every year), April was full of events. Due to time constraints I couldn’t make it to all of them, and if I did go, I almost always forgot to snap pictures. Apart from work, last month was a whirlwind of emotions, decisions, drinks and meeting/reconnecting with people. It almost drove me insane, but hey, I’m still here standing.

At the reopening of Emporio Armani’s KLCC boutique (Chinese actress Shu Qi came and made a very short appearance!)

At the Marc by Marc Jacobs Spring/Summer 2012 fashion show. I look somewhat high here already.

Before Optical88*’s fashion show. Love the invitation card!

At the Vice Convent party series – Vertigo KL.

And yeah…I like posting pictures of my moody cat!

A public therapy

I have a few quirks when it comes to dealing with my moods. For example, when I’m really upset or broken hearted I would go to a hotel, any hotel, to be alone and separated from the rest of the world. This first came about, some years back, when I had a huge argument with an ex – I just packed a night bag and exited dramatically ‘into the night’, as novels would say. A little bit of it also comes from my love of staying in random hotels – in fact, I’d just love to try out all hotels and backpackers in the middle of Kuala Lumpur.

I have recently found another way to calm myself down when I’m upset – taking public transportation on the weekend. The public transportation system in KL is horrendous, to say the least, so I generally avoid it when I can, but last weekend I took the bus and then the train to KLCC and it was an uplifting experience….in a weird sense. There’s something about figuring out how to get to a certain destination, getting ‘lost’ in your own city, being an anonymous commuter surrounded by strangers that takes my mind off things. 

Today, I shall attempt to take the bus to a nearby mall so I can go pay my bills. The easier option is to cab it, but I think I need some public ‘therapy’ again 🙂
