hm it's been more than a week since i last blogged.

since then... the torrent problem's been sort of solved. just one week to go before the alias finale, because TWO eps of alias aired this week :):):) which i have yet to acquire, but i look forward to them. yay! lena olin!!!

have had lots of daisy rehearsals; it's frustrating when you work with some of the actors and the next day they forget all the pointers you've given them. although it's only a very small proportion of the cast who's that way. most of them are fantastic to work with. all in all, daisy's rather fun =D i shall be sad when it's over because it'll be the last rjc drama thing i'll be involved in. which is sad.

yesterday i bought a really adorable denim skirt, and i most fantastically convinced kelly to make an impulse purchase. a white tote bag. which i think is bucolic-looking, because it's got flowers on it, but she refuses to allow me to call it bucolic because she thinks bucolic sounds diseased. i agree, haha. there are some strange words in the english language. but it's a nice bag anyway, so i'm glad she bought it especially since she was carrying around the bag i bought her in india, despite it being ripped on one side. anyway my skirt's from aslurpingape, which kelly thinks is a very weird name for a shop, but i think is quite cute although it's sort of nonsensical. i also bought a pin that says 'slurp', to pin on my black bag with all the other pins. i now need to get myself another plain black bag, because this one's got all the pins on it. haha i make shopping lists compulsively, but atleast 'cute denim skirt' is now crossed off.

what else.
OH!
my dad told me over lunch, about his really weird experience at some fancy dinner function he attended last night in KL. some ugly old woman - one of the singers who were supposed to entertain the guests but who apparently were quite bad - came over to his table, and called him the malay word for "white man" which i cannot remember now, and then sat on his lap and kissed him on the forehead! (my mother is suitably outraged that this happened.)

and my dad was really horrified, cos he was at the vip table and usually the singers don't come and flirt at the vip table - though in alias, when sydney dresses up sexily and sings cabaret as she did in Rendezvous, she HAS to go flirt at the vip table because the owner of the club inevitably is some bad guy whose pda or access card or something she has to steal :) haha but my dad's not a bad guy with classified access cards or whatever. hm maybe she was trying to steal HP secrets from his iPaq. HM. hahahaa. don't i just wish my life were more exciting and glamourous.

anyway my dad was horrified and the woman realised he was horrified and she got up and left. i hope she was really embarrassed, and hope she found out that he was a good little indian man, not a white guy. heh i'm sure my dad would have preferred if it had been asha gill instead, who was hosting the event. atleast she's younger and sexier. oh and after that the malaysian country manager apologised profusely and insisted that he hadn't told the woman to do it or anything. i find the whole event quite strange and hilarious.

my dad seems to attract this nonsense, which is really funny because my dad's actually rather shy. in vegas he was picked on to come on stage and be the volunteer for part of a magic show, and it involved showgirls dancing around him in skimpy outfits, sitting on his lap and tickling his cheeks and winding rope thingys around him. i felt rather embarrassed for him. he was blushing furiously. my dad's so cute.

oh speaking of vegas shows! i JUST realised recently, that the blue man group was the new hot show when i was there, but i had no idea who they were then and my parents were trying to decide if we should go for it, but my brother and i picked the magic show instead because we thought watching a bunch of blue guys would be rather boring. and OHMYGOD it was BLUE MAN GROUP.

i'm really slow - only a week ago i was watching a show on discovery t&a hosted by david cassidy, about the best shows in vegas, and it was only THEN that i realised the blue man group arent just a band but actually do a huge show there, and THEN I remembered the blue man group posters all over vegas when i was there, and THEN i kicked myself REALLY hard for passing up the opportunity to go to their show. man i'd have been so chuffed with myself to have been able to say "i've seen the blue man group live."

god i was a really stupid 14-year-old. but then i also listened to nonsense like the backstreet boys and britney spears then. and the magic show was really quite crappy, and embarrassing for my dad of course =P

ugh.
