Post Holiday Blues & Then Some

It's back to work and I'm guessing most of us would have trouble getting out of bed, re-snoozing the alarm on our handphones before we finally get our butts to work.. oh yes those are the signs of the post-holiday blues alright. Well, there's the CNY holidays to look forward to and Hari Wilayah (for us KL-lites yipeee!)...

And even though we're hit with the post-holiday blues, we're still up to do a lot of things or have the energy to attend events and social activities such as the upcoming PICK & GRAB II Flea Bazaar organized by Lah'Lah; Land @ Hartamas Square, Pandora Lair's Club 69 and a gathering which may possibly happen next Friday night. All in the name of love and all things passionate.

Personally I kinda missed those days when we all knew where to head when it came to the weekends. Having read KLWord recently, I agree and recalled those days where we just wanted a place to chill with the girls, drink (except for me though, Coke will do please!) and be merry... in the colourful nights of "Liquid". Now that the place is no longer there, we sort of have different places to hang out every weeke but it's never the same because as the places segregate so did the crowd with some hanging out at one place and the others at another.

I mean just recently even the LBB creator was really, really surprised to see us at her event! She thought we wouldn't show up because we were from a different group but that's not how we work here in WLU. Even though we may or may not know you well or whichever social group /sites/affiliation you're from, when it comes to supporting the womyn, we do try our bestest to be there because we know how much it means to you to have people attending the event and take part in the cause/the party/the network etc which you believe in. Of course the intention has to be nice though ya. It is indeed challenging to expect a change in everyone at one go but we believe that once you've showed the commitment, be honest in what you believe in, hearts will definitely melt. If not, well there's always karma. Hehe.

And so we leave you with this campaign trail message to start your votes on the LBB page now because it ends on 31st Jan 09. Be wise and show them how smart we are when it comes to deciding the best candidate to represent Malaysia as the proceeds from the sale of the planner will go to a charity body and yes this is the real deal folks. Selamat mengundi!

Much Love,

Little Black Book Nominees Party - NY Eve!


We all had separate plans on the eve of New Year 2008 because there were too many parties going on such as the All girls party at Retro Club featuring DJ Q-Lock and there was also a party at Maison featuring a PLU Australian DJ! In the end, we decided to head over to the Little Black Book Nominee Party @ Club 69 whom I must say did a wonderful marketing & PR work within 10 days away from the party!

Because we were so kiasu and didn't want to be stuck in the jam, we reached KL by 730pm, without any jam! Hmm... since it was too early, the best thing to do would be to chill at the mamak before the party starts.

Even then when we entered at 945pm, we were the first ones to arrive ( of all days, we were so punctual! ). Soon people were trickiling in and by 1130pm the show started. The organisers made sure that the branding was apparent (with the LBB printed backdrop), the door gifts was pretty good and they had the girls giving out shots at RM20 just as they promised.

Stef Lim who is the creator of the LBB group/project emceed for the night and started the party with the fashion show. Although only 6 out of the 42 nominees walked the runway that night, the commitment and passion only showed in them and we wished that more nominees would have taken part instead of just having their pictures up for nomination. Even the troupes from Singapore came all the way down to support the show! After all, the whole idea of the event is for CHARITY.

There was also performances by Sapphoric Acid and a pole dancer who decided not to pole dance in the end. But thank God for her groovy dance moves which kept us entertained.

As the clock struck 12am, we countdown-ed the night and bid farewell to 2008 and cheered for the year 2009. May it be filled with happiness, laughter, kind hearts and such.

Happy New Year to all and be safe!
