elaine

remember when i said the scene here was tiny? and how you see the same people everywhere you go? and there's like 1 degree of separation. well, it got even smaller this weekend when we ran into our friend elaine at a party on friday. she was visiting from cali. and it was a yacht party. of about 20 people. then we ran into her again at IFC mall. And we met up with her for someone's birfday party last night.

the yacht party was very nice. there was food and booze and it was just really relaxing to sit on the water, under the night sky. the temperature was perfect, the wind just breezy enough. but sadly, there was not a single star to be found. the pollution here is awful.

here are some pics from last night at prive. the music was good and we were able to get in right away because apparently elaine's friends go there all the time. otherwise it wouldn't be worth the trouble. those places never really are. having to wait in line and all that. it's such a sad thing to just stand and wait in anticipation. a friend's friend actually has a membership there! i forgot how much it costs but it gets you in right away. it's not all bad i guess since he gets to use that money towards drinks. but still. man, everything here is about membership and exclusivity. hk is very similar to ny's meatpacking district, except more amplified and dense.

...something's wrong with blogger, will post pics later...
