Went to a black-tie event with Siryn two nights ago.It wasn't as star-studded as expected but still there were a few familiar celebrities (tho for the life of me, i couldn't place some of their faces or remember what made them famous :P). Ok FINE!.. so i'm bad with local celebrities... can't help it if they lack memorable talent. 8P
Amidst the pool (not big enough to qualify as 'sea') of tuxedos and sparkly dresses, i noticed a group of 4 girls dressed in black slinky dresses except for 1 who was in strapless pink and had an interesting tattoo on the back of her left shoulder. They seemed to know their way around and highly at ease with the whole up-do thing. So there i was, keeping low profile since obviously, i have not reached the hi-society status (still working on that part.. hehehe), taking in all the sights & sounds, ooh-ing at some of the dresses at the fashion show and savouring the delightful spread at the buffet table. I was thinking 'hmmm.. i could get used to this.. well, maybe this kind of income, that is'. Hahahaha....
Just before we were to leave, Siryn and i went to the washroom and bumped into Pinky & her mates there. What shocked me when i came out from the stall was not so much that they were smoking in there, but that they were all squatting on floor in the most unflattering manner. Pinky was bitching away in local dialect and waving her hand as if she was ready to pick a fight with someone. EVERY other word that came out from her mouth was either a curse or a swear word. I may not understand the local dialect very much, but it doesn't take Einstein to figure out what she was saying. It didn't matter that Siryn and i was there or that 2 little girls were in there too. She just went on and on while her mates just listened, periodically nodding in (what seemed to me, clueless) agreement. Hahahahaha... sounds like a new cartoon/girlband - Pinky & the No-brainers... but i digress. :P
Siryn and i got out of there as quickly as we could. Any initial impression of grace or etiquette we had of her just washed down the drain at extreme speed. We were so appalled by her words and actions. We have heard and seen celebrity cattiness before but what we witnessed in there was beyond. It just goes to show that Clothes do not maketh the man (or woman, in this case) and as my bestfren Siryn says "Your carefully put-together Audrey Hepburnesque princess look wouldn't do you any good if what comes out the moment you open your mouth would put the most colourfully profane sailors to shame."
