Monday: Acted a fool while inspiring young minds at the Academy and experimented with calamari cooking techniques, discussed Rosetta Stone and had Tagalog lessons with Trisha and Steven.
Tuesday: Screening of “Milk” (Please, go see this movie. It is one of the best this year – and it was shot in SF!). Wrote. In the evening, I sat through a “Twilight” screening with a bunch of hormonal tweens dressed as characters from the film. My personal favorite: the little dude dressed as a member of the Volturi.
Wednesday: Was a part of a fashion panel on “Sustainable Fashion” for the Innovative Fashion Council of San Francisco, where I spoke of all my knowledge on the topic alongside five other fashion industry professionals to a standing room-only audience. Steven, Charles and Cheryl gave me great reviews on my performance. I felt I was obnoxious throughout the whole ordeal – but still charming!
Thursday: Wrote during the day, met Bernardo with Cheryl for a meeting. Went to a Saks Fifth Avenue/GQ event, then a Ferragamo thing and then to a 2.5 hour (without credits mind you) screening of “Australia” – which was an unbelievable romantic epic! I love Baz Luhrmann.
Friday: Erline flew in, but have yet to hang with her. Had a meeting and then interviewed “Australia” costume designer, Catherine Martin via phone. Interviewed GQ style correspondent, Brett Fahlgren at Saks. Visited a new store called Shotwell. Ate cookies, pizza and then frozen yogurt. Went on a hunt to buy something expensive, ended up buying a Podoll shirt at a warehouse sale in Hayes Valley for $25 – but I am still on the hunt for some lace up boots. Which reminds me: Nice Collective – can you please hook me up with a pair of your new boots?
Plans for the weekend: Saturday: Tagging along with my sister to Cupcake’s party. Yes, her nickname is Cupcake and I shall be known as Bundt Cake that day. Then later that evening, my cousin is making it hot with a b-day party. Sunday: Hip Hop DanceFest at the Palace of Fine Arts.
Aren’t you glad I just bragged about how busy I am during my work week? Don’t you hate it when people always say “I’m SOOOOOO busy!” Instead of saying that, I am just going to show you how busy I am – so take that! And believe me, I will excessively name drop when appropriate. Also, you can stalk me this weekend since I told you everything I am doing short of bowel movements and morning jogs.
