Aspirer

So last night was the first show of Randy Ortiz in 12 years and it was well worth the wait because the clothes were fantastic (the suits were gasp!). Al in all, it was a fun show. Fun because Happy, her cousin, and I got pretty good seats (even we were at the back but at least it was elevated) so we got to see everything. And by seeing everything, I mean EVERYTHING. We saw models slip, slide, and almost trip. Even when Suyen Sia fell. She didn't do a Miss Universe (fall then get up immediately) or a Naomi Campbell (wobble, fall, laugh about it, then sashay). When she fell, she posed and stayed that way for a good 5 seconds until a kind soul stood from his seat and helped her get up. Her fall, of course, got a standing ovation and cheers from the crowd. You couldn't blame them for slipping though. According to Kat, she said the runway was made out of l-i-n-o-l-e-u-m. Anyway, the most surprising "model" that emerged was (this white cow) Bessie who came on stage wearing a really pretty dress. "What's an animal doing here?" I asked myself. Oh wait, it wasn't (a cow) Bessie. It was Bea Alonso...

Her waist was wider than an Interstate Highway
... who also fell at the end of the show. I think her right leg must have gotten in the way of her left leg when she attempted to graze down the catwalk. I have a feeling the linoleum didn't have anything to do with it. But unlike the supahmodel before her, I don't think she got a standing ovation, only gasps. And a chuckle from me. I think that's sad.

What the...

At the Lifestyle Asia Eligibles event last Wednesday... ... that lady in the background totally ruined the photo. What's with the face, lady?? Funny thing is, me thinks only half of the eligibles actually arrived. Didn't they get the memo that they might be needed there since the event was about them? Anyhow, the event was fun. I really prefer intimate events like this one because I get to talk to everyone compared to having it in such a huge place. It's more fun, I think.
