Wow?
This is the view overlooking a hotel group's office waiting area. My
jaw dropped when I walked in. A pool on the eighth floor? Wow.

And mind you, this isn't even an upmarket hotel group like the Ritz or
the Shang..

Plot for Bright Star
I wrote this down on a friend's wall in Facebook, but it made me laugh so I thought I would reproduce it.
The plot for Jane Campion's Bright Star, as told by me.
Warning: Spoilers ahead!
~ Beginning of Bright Star ~
Fanny: Oh I love you John Keats!
John Keats: I love you but I have no money....
Fanny: I'll stare at you from outside your window then!
John Keats: Here's a poem for you. Oh wait, my friend is getting angry!
Fanny: I'll pine for you anyway! And catch butterflies!
John Keats: *cough* *dies*
Fanny: Noooooooooooooooooo!
~ The End~
Needless to say, I didn't find the movie very interesting when I watched it in Cannes earlier this year. In fact, the more exciting part of it was that Quentin Tarintino was sitting behind us during the movie! (Yes, I am going to repeat that QT story until the day I die, I'm sorry.)

The house is on fire!
I had my first real panic attack last night. My first in 25 years.
And it happened all so fast as well. One minute I'm on the phone with Dave, the next minute I'm in tears, I can't breathe properly, my head is woozy and I feel the constant need to puke.
Then of course, supermom comes in and ever so nicely (NOT!) says that I'm not handling my work and stress all too well. "But it's always like this every month, what!"
Uh, thanks for your understanding mom. And no, the end-year crunch is worse than the usual year.
But strangely enough, I feel a lot better today despite only having a couple of hours of sleep. Maybe it was because I delegated a few tasks this morning, maybe it was me not putting up with the intern's shitty writing anymore and making her re-write her crap, but I feel very zenned out right now.
Whatever will be will be. Just take it as it comes.
Let's see how long this feeling will last, shall we.

Lady Gaga's sartorial influences emerges in mysterious ways
Why yes, that is indeed a hat made out of three plushies! Fashioned by yours truly while Dave was busy shooting skegs and zombies in Borderlands.
