Where did I go?

Hello everyone:) Indeed, where did i go? Well, my last blog was about flitzing back to Singapore to welcome some of the members of Motley Crue at Changi Airport. You know, the usual meet-and-greet the band at the airport and throw a ring of pink orchids over their necks, signing a poster for Changi's Hall of fame hulahoop kind of thing. The band members were coming from different cities, so it was split between 2 days at the airport and I was hired to do a big tapdance announcement on the second day for none other than Tommy Lee. See if you can figure this poster puzzle out:Well, you can't really spot it but if you do figure it out, you get an air-guitar kick from me...Yup, Tommy Lee's signature is missing from the poster, which means he did a rockstar no-show! F.a.b.u.l.o.u.s! I wouldn't have wanted it any different, I mean, come'on, they're legendary! They can do whatever they friggin like, they're rock bible. Still...as i think to myself onstage: 'I got stood up by Tommy Lee in the center of Changi Airport.'HILARIOUS.The concert was fun, a lot of screams, a lot of mud (it was outdoor) and a lot of, ahem, older people dressed in 80's karate kid numbers. Amusing, but scary too...you had to be there to know what I mean..Back to fashion nation:THANK YOU ELLE SINGAPORE! for making me Fashion Icon of the Year 2008! This award goes to my squished feet for wearing the most ridicules stilettos of all time and enduring my yogic balancing act of grace and poise in the wonderful world of fashion. So, here's to you, my 10 little piggies for all the pain I caused you.And off to shoot for Elle for the closing issue of 2008.grrr, you're a leopard, you're a ferret, you're tiger with brick wedges on...uh, what?Sometimes I really have no idea what the hell I'm thinking about when I'm in front of the camera..but I do realize over the years, how much more I laugh at myself doing this. Look at the sheer concentration...I'm holding my tummy and keeping my lunch in:)And this is the touch-your-strap-and-keep-your-fingers-posed-for-ring-shot..Uh,... only my fingers turn out to be crooked because I'm double-jointed...Nice!And off to the next project: Pistorio Foundation.I have to say I'm generally really sheepish about doing charity events/auctions, especially when you have no idea if funds meet the needy. But this one, feels different. It spoke to me in a different light. And I fell in love with Pistorio's mission in the world, which is to help children and their future. Having a mum as a teacher, it resonated in me how little schools we have in Asia. Basic schools. Basic tools. Basic life needs.So me and La Perla silently auctioned a specially designed dress for the cause Read more about it on www.pistoriofoundation.org I think we hit a great mark for the foundation which from I understood, was a night of sufficient funds to open a school dormitory in Thailand. :)And my last stop: Thailand! What a great way to unwind my twinkle toes for a short break with my sister, Nadine:)I'm back at work, mad at work and will be in and out from AND. Lots to report in the next months..Thank you for the sweet messages and well-wishes for my m.i.a. I promise to keep updating when I have moments to spare. Do look out for my new website, coming real soon. I know, I know, I've been saying that for almost 2 years now (LOL), but I've been working with some very cool webmasters who go by the name of artfantastico, and we have FINALLY figured out what my problem was: getting my act together!So watch this space, I'll give you guys a head's up. And once again, than you for being so patient!love, dk
