Really gone...and reeeally back =)

I was getting ready to go to San Pedro, a city 2 hours away from mine, to attend a Honduran designer's fashion show. I was excited, and wanted to post on my blog before leaving and then I realized I couldn't access any of my accounts!!
I was sad because I knew I wouldn't have a blog to come back to with the lowdown on the fashion show...but... I can't help it, I need to vent out all my (fashionizable heehee) emotions and opened this new blog.So anyway...the fashion show... Miguel Chong was the Honduran designer, and the event was held in favor of the Ruth Paz foundation and all the cream supreme of the "society" attended. I was reeeally looking forward to seeing people's CLOTHES, outrageous funky outfits, spunky risktakers, ugly pretty accesories and strange color combos.....
Eh...I saw a cute dress or two, nice shoes. High maintenance people...alot of chandelier earrings...fancy hair... I do admire the man just to think he could even put up a show here in Honduras. It seems like a ton of work!! I found my outfit last minute. I'm not going to say how much both dresses cost me (layered them)...I'll let you think it was incredibly expensive. *Hint hint* I hadn't been to an event like that before, so I did have alot of fun I admit!aaaand recent DIYs?
A skirt and a summer dress. At sewing school they have me working on pockets, hems, etc. etc. so I haven't had the time to work on anything big. The summer dress was an ugly grey t-shirt+spring print fabric. =) Pretty easy!
And I have some prettyyyy cool news ;) I was offered a job as a reporter+presenter for the fashion section of a new local tv show that hasn't aired yet. The funny thing is the channel is mostly about crude news! Images of dead people, splattered blood and accidents, protests, etc. And then fashion, health and interior design?! That'll be interesting!
Cons: Heavy heavy makeup. Tips anyone??? I just learned last week how to apply blush!!
More public exposure to humiliation (heh, and I complained about that in the old blog.) Ohhh, and get this! I was asked to "tone it down"!!!! TONE IT DOWN?!?! Nah-uh.
In other words, no Emilio de la Morena, Peter Pilotto or designers of the like I can mention....booooo! (thumbs down)I think they'll settle for the Carolina Herrera/Oscar de la Renta/Michael Kors range...which is okay compared to how the "Abercrombie&Fitch/Hollister" crowd are considered fashion royalty down here...heeheehe
Also, I intended to post this on one I left half way done on my old blog, and it was loong time ago but here it is:the sweet sweet girls from chicintuition.com
interviewed me for their site! Apparently they were having technical issues with the site and I'm not sure the link is working anymore, so this picture is all I have. Their site is filled with good stuff =P

Anyway, thankyou everyone for the support, and please keep helping me spread the word about the new blog! (Stevie thankyou for the wonderful post!!!)...All the pictures from the old blog are gone, but I'll try to put them up somewhere.
I'm off to have dinner, mom's waiting....

a 7 pounds heavier but lightened up,

04/07/08 Tag Alert

I've been tagged by Lynn&Horst and Antonia !
There are strict rules to follow.

The rules:
1. Link the person that tagged you.
2. Tell the rules.
3. Tell six unimportant obsessions of you.
4. Link to six people.
5. Comment on their blog that they have been tagged.

Here we go:

1. I have to buy a scarf at least once a week. I currently own about more than hundred yet you'll hardly ever see me wear one.
2. My flatmate and I tend to just add an s onto words when using plurals which actually makes sense in english but sounds pretty retarded in german.
3. I recently discovered how fabolous it is to get really drunk, meaning I am actually hammered 5 times a week.
4. The only film I can quote from is Clueless.
5. I am the only one how is allowed to take pictures of me. Yes, maybe I have a poserface but it sure does look good. They don't call me Claude van Damn for nothing.
6. I can't possibly get rid of my New Kids on the Block Shirt even though it shines in the tackiest neon colours.

Ich wurde von Lynn&Horst und Antonia getagged!

Es gibt ein höchst kompliziertes Regelwerk an das ich mich halten muss.

Die Regeln:
1. Setze einen Link zu der Person, die dir das Stöckchen zugeworfen hat.
2. Erwähne die dazugehörigen Regeln in deinem Blog.
3. Erzähle von dir 6 unwichtige Dinge/Macken/Gewohnheiten.
4. Gib das Stöckchen am Ende deiner 6 Antworten an 6 Leute durch Verlinkung weiter.
5. Hinterlasse bei jeder der gewählten Personen einen Kommentar in ihrem Blog, wonach sie getagged wurde.

Ab dafür:

1. Ich kaufe mir ständig Schals, mittlerweile habe ich über 100 Stück, ziehe aber selten einen davon an.
2. Meine Mitbewohnerin und ich tendieren dazu an alles beim Plural ein s dranzuhängen.
3. Ich habe vor kurzem rausbekommen wie toll es ist betrunken zu sein, bin also jetzt 5 mal die Woche voll auf Sendung.
4. Der einzige Film aus dem ich zitieren kann ist Clueless.
5. Ich bin der Einzige der von mir Fotos machen darf. Ja, ich habe ein Posergesicht, aber es sieht super aus. Ich werde nicht umsonst Claude van Damn genannt.
6. Ich kann mich beim besten Willen nicht von meinem New Kids on the Block Shirt trennen auch wenn es in den schlimmsten Neon Tönen leuchtet.
