...the work might be lame, but at least it earns oodles of money for little-to-no-effort.

however, I never realized how this skirt really makes me look quite tarty, in the moulin rouge kinda way (but then again, maybe its the boots that do that).

:)

will theoretically be back in town in May at some point, though this is all up in the air (depends on job-stuff plus ticket-pricing). will keep you updated, maybe I can come along to a poetry night (oh, how very NY!) ;)

What kind of computer did you get? I need to get a new laptop. At about 4 years old, mines literally falling apart.

I'm in the US now, and I may get a Macbook while I'm here.

As far as the boots and skirt, the skirt COULD be a bit much if you're on stage...with people looking UP at you. And it seems like you're falling right in line with all the OTHER Chinese girls with the "knee-high boot" look. Just don't start wearing them with shorts and stockings...especially when the shorts and stockings are the SAME COLOR as the boots. Better of with pants at that point.

hmm... good points.

agree, boots with shorts = bad (and adding stockings to the mix?! eep!)

*still mystified by Chinese 'fashion'*

and yes, you should *totally* get a macbook :)

(I bought an iMac b/c I need something uber-reliable, and I'm secretly hoping that my powerbook can get fixed)

aaah I wish I had long legs like you ;)
I watched the Golden Horse (?) award ceremony on tv and the first hostess was soo damn tall and skinny ! It looks so weird when the woman's taller than the man xD

yeah, I wouldn't have worn those boots if I'd known that the other host was going to be soooo short (sigh)
