met with the marketing manager of a boutique hotel this morning to discuss sponsorship issue. tall, pretty malaysian (i guess so) lady in her thirties with honey-coloured skin. so nice and so patient with us who looked like sei leng jai. although she wasn't familiar with new media art or how some of our projects worked, and she honestly admitted that she didn't understand so much about art, but she would still pay attention to what we said, really trying to learn more about it, and raise questions when coming across any term that she didn't understand. really appreciate her very positive attitude and openness.

siuyuen i really like that b, but don't worry i won't fall in love with her. it's just that i've never met such an adorable b (usually i have an impression that TBs are one of the most terrible creatures in the world). after the meeting with the manager we tried to collect our thoughts outside the building lobby. she asked me if i was going home, i said yes and then she said, '可唔可以陪我食埋支煙先？' i said sure yes and watched her smoking and looking away, organizing her thoughts, pondering on the next step. WA that moment, that particular scene was killing me. there is a tiny, vague happiness when being with her.

i know all these sound so oi mui but please don't get me wrong. i just like her.

went to the salon despite the black rainstorm signal. in these many years it's the first time i talked so much with the hairstylist. but it's probably the last time before i leave lu, i went there partly to say goodbye to him. a few months ago as i was having a haircut he said for the first time he suddenly realized that i looked older. at that moment i was almost touched.

the meeting with my frd and my agent (the one who got this drawing job for me) afterwards again a test on my limit. so good to see this friend again as she has worked with this guy before. both of us thought the way he worked was really ridiculous. as he arrived 30 minutes late at the coffee shop i couldn't pretend to nice anymore. i didn't care so much about his being late actually but it gave me a good and convenient excuse to vent out my anger which had kept on accummulating.

for god's sake i don't want to have an engineer or a doctor as my boyfriend or husband. isn't it ridiculous that a professional can have no common sense at all?

and mud q ar, isn't it supposed to be his job? why make us brainstorm the whole thing for him? and why as one of the featured artists should i coordinate the exhibition by myself especially when he knew very well that i wouldn't even be in hong kong? why would he think i would do the exhibition pamplet? what is he as a curator doing then? wouldn't it be a bit funny?

but the good news is, we will probably get a 2000 sqft exhibition space in peak galleria where i can display that big drawing with other previous sketches as well as the acrylic namecard sculpture that i did 2 months ago. let's hope the exhibition will turn out looking decent and not too DIY-ish. i don't really want it to be so pop with DIY workshops being held and DIY products being sold at the same venue. will try to make sure it's neat, not too artsy but not too pop.

finally gong yuen. so long-winded. haha.

good luck to chiubi's essay, yuen's trip, wiki's school thing (i don't really know what's going on), the big big drawing, videotage's projectes, mum's bitter melons, the coming exhibition and my school life.

and i can't wait to see classmate again this weekend =]
