All dressed up to view an apartment and the guy who was supposed to show it to us didn’t pick up his phone! Come on, I just want a luxury loft for the same amount of rent that I was paying in New Orleans. Is that too much to ask? And it’s 22 C today (70s for you Americans) despite the fact that it snowed just three days ago! I was so excited to wear my new dress.

How’s my bitch face? I’ve been practicing.

A gaggle of catholic schoolgirls and a similar number of whores stuck in a church during the rape of Nanjing, I wonder what’s going to happen? Reducing women to saints or sluts in 2012?

I really don’t know why I went to see this film. I can’t stand Zhang “Subtle as a brick”/”Crayola” Yimou and I can’t stand Asian cryfest cinema. No stars.

And they forgot the eyebrows. That really bothered me.

Please don’t say that to a film you don’t even want to know the meaning behind it. I don’t really good at English but your words really bothered me. Don’t like don’t watch don’t complain, you make mankind looks uglier in my eyes, while Zhang Yimou (and other artists) is trying to makes it better (although I’m a Vietnamese and I don’t really like the way China treated us).

LOL. Zhang Yimou is a puppet of the PRC. He makes mankind look like a crayon drawing. Is this simile simple enough for you?

TOWERS OF SILENCE: ZOROASTRIAN ARCHITECTURES FOR THE RITUAL OF DEATH

A Tower of Silence, or Dakhmeh, is a structure laying on the top of a hill, consisting of concentric slabs surrounding a central pit. The bodies were arranged onto four concentric rings: men, outermost, than women and children. Despite the fact the the birds of prey needed less than an hour to leave nothing but bones, the remains of the dead were left bleaching on the upper circles no less than a year before the nasellars could come and push the skeletons onto the underlying ossuary pit. Running through sand and coal filters, the disintegrated bones were eventually washed away in the sea.

Going to get my nails did tomorrow: which ones should I get? LDR’s new French manicure but less pointy more almond shaped (just red or red and gold?), Sophy Robson’s hearts on a blue background, or DVT’s half moon? Or just classic red? It’ll probably last at least two weeks so I want something that won’t look too stupid as my nails grow out. Answers on a postcard in the next… 6 hours. Yikes. Better sleep.

Let me tell you about how I got shouted at when I tried to take pictures of tacky-ass shit in Macau.

Photos 1 & 2:

Man in black jacket: YOU CAN’T TAKE PHOTOS HERE! YOU CAN’T TAKE PHOTOS HERE!

Lok: Sorry (putting phone down)

Man: YOU CAN’T TAKE PHOTOS HERE!

Lok: I know. I heard you. I can speak Chinese

Man: Oh you can speak Chinese, can you?

The correct response here is: “What is your name and where is your supervisor” but I was so tired and shocked that I just walked away. Shame.

Photo 3:

(Floor at the entrance of a hotel/casino called something like “Grand Emperor”. In case you can’t see them properly, they’re hollow tiles containing “gold ingots” and “diamonds”.)

Man in uniform: You can’t take pictures here, go over there to take pictures

(No one is coming in the door so I’m not blocking any guests from entering)

Man: CAN YOU MOVE AND TAKE PICTURES OVER THERE

Lok: I already took the picture, why are you still talking

Man: CAN YOU MOVE

Lok: YOU’RE STILL TALKING.

Correct response: “Oh I’m sorry, what if I start speaking in Mandarin and waving around $1000 bills, which I have in my wallet right here, can I take a photo here then?” (This one is bordering on bad taste, but context.) Instead, on my way out, I stared him down thrice. How do you stare someone down thrice? When they pussy out and you catch their gaze again and stare them down. Twice.

Photo 4 is one of the two “carriages” flanking the Grand Emperor or whatever it’s called. No one shouted at me for taking this photo except for EVERYTHING THAT IS GOOD IN THE WORLD
