woohoo. first week of internship over!! LOL. and omg. i just realised i have 8 weeks left. bloody hell. that is a really long time. anyways back to my first week. nothing much to shout about but i'll update you guys la. lol.

so far i have vacuumed the place, wiped his glass display shelves, arranged his accessories, done beading, removed beadings (lol), ironed a (sort of) skirt, unpicked stuff, sewed buttons, hooks and eyes, and my favourite part of it all - design, sketch and colour :) okay so it may not seem like a lot but to be honest, you can really learn a lot by just observing. like when he asks me to unpick something i always end up turning the dress inside out to see how he does the finishings, how he attaches the zips, what stitches he uses. stuff like that. kinda good that i got this job instead of a magazine one. hopefully my sewing skills will be good enough for my last semester haha.

and i realised something about myself this week. i find it really difficult to ask people things. like i'm always so reluctant to ask someone how to do stuff even though im clueless. i dunno wtf that is all about. it irritates me. i dunno if i'm just shy, or afraid that i'll sound stupid or stubborn or all the above. sheesh. (see, i even irritate myself. wth rite.)

i finally bought neil gaiman's american gods last night. i really liked stardust and since i havent read anything for a while i decided to get another of his books. was deciding between smokes and mirrors and american gods but i went for the latter cos its a novel. smoke and mirrors is a collection of short stories and i wanted something longer. lol. anansi boys will be next. hehe. speaking of neil gaiman's work, the movie for stardust is coming soon! check out the official website for the movie here. huh. i always imagined tristan an yvaine to be er... younger looking. hope it follows the story closely. i heard tori amos is gonna appear as the tree. lol. incidentally, she was the inspiration for the tree in the first place i think.

and since i'm on the topic of movies now, i am absolutely dying to watch pirates 3. it's out in cinemas but i dont have time to watch it! argh!!! someone take me out!! lol. here's the official website. check out the pirate map. there are pictures of the pirate lords. one of them really cracked me up. cos he looks like john galliano! seriously. for those who've seen Galliano dressed up in his pirate costume, trust me, this dude Capitaine Chevalle really looks like him. and i cant wait to see keith richards as a pirate! lol! eh there's one thing i was wondering about. at that time singapore was part of malaya rite? anyone can answer that for me? my history is so bad its as if i never studied it. wait. that might be true. lol.

i saw funeral for a friend's new album at mph today. i want it so badly. but it's rm48! so bloody expensive. and i think there's only 10 songs. garghhhh.

and for those who like instrumental music, you have to check out this band. yndi halda. i heard them on a cd which came with rock sound magazine. lol. the song is called dash and blast and its a frigging 16 minutes long!! but it's really nice. i can imagine it as a soundtrack for a fantasy movie. lol. there's a short clip of them here. well, 'short' considering the actual length of the song.


well i thinked i've pretty much said enough for this post. later, folks.
