Surgical experience
Ugh! I just undergone a minor operation: excission of abscess. I'm not gonna bore myself explaining that medical term, just that it involves pus.
I hate what I've to go through, hate that it has to be at the most fuckin awkward place...arghhhh!!!! This's soooo unfair!!!!
This whole thing is the root of all the tantrums and mood swings I've been having lately. And like that's not enough, I'm missing out on lessons in school. Not that I give a damn missing this wretched school, but now I've to pay my dues, try to catch up in lectures, and fend off those nosy questions from the hypocrites. I'm gonna hate the latter the most.
Whenever I bring up the subject of the hypocrites, I feel like committing genocide or something. So.....better stop here before I really lose control.

A new face!
My blog has undergone a renovation. Before this, it was filled with cobwebs and spiders (urghh!)...I've been neglecting it all these months!
I had a hard time choosing the new skin, but this skin totally epitomises what I feel about life and the people in it. So there...my skin speaks for itself!
So many many things happened during these past few months, but I'll talk about them later...coz now, I'm feeling kinda sleepy. Night for now.

Reflections with Tilz....
Ok, I finally found some time to revive this inactive blog....sorry guys. I'm just gonna give the same excuse__it's a fact anyway__I'm overloaded with tests after tests and projects.
This entry is long overdued coz' Matilda (affectionately nicked as "Tilz") left for Italy last Friday. Anyway, we managed to squeeze in 2 days all to ourselves while she was in Singapore for 11 days. We watched 2 movies "Elizabethtown" and "Memoirs of a Geisha", the former was kinda draggy in the first few parts, but the ending was real nice. Quite inspirational. The latter was awesome, maybe it's coz' I haven't read the book....ya know how you get disappointed when u watch a movie adapted from a book, but they failed to portray the intensity and stuff.
Tilz is an artist in the making. No doubt! We were having lunch and while waiting for me to finish up, she whipped out her sketch book and started sketching. Call it instinct, but I somehow felt that I was the subject of her sketch. Imagine the thought of having your portrait done while you're eating out of a sizzling hot-plate! Hahahhahhah!!!! But it was cool, she showed me her sketch and it was really neat! She was the only person who could see through my mask of a "happy" person, and sketch it out. Pretty deep, I know.
We spent more than 2hrs at a cafe reminiscing about the fabulous days in DSY__nothing can replace those days, especially in this dreary land. I love you guys!!! You know who I'm talking about, and for those who don't, they're the people who put colours in my life and help me discover who I am, during the brief years.
Oooo....Tilz gave me a charm bracelet! Something which I've been thinking of buying for quite some time! Now, all I need is to fill the bracelet with charms.
I wish I could be in Tilz's shoes....she gets to travel around the world ALONE!!! That's totally exciting but of course, it could get scary too. But I'd say "Hell yeah!" if I were given that kinda chance. Anything to get out of these shackles that bound me to the dysfunctional family and even more drabby school-life. *scoffs* Who am I kidding....I might get rid of the latter soon, after I graduate, but I'm still bound to my parents, coz' they brought me up and blah blah...just coz'. Arghhh....I wouldn't mind sticking with them if my mom was still the mom she was when I was still a kid. *curses*
Whoever is writing out this life of mine, I hate U for what you've done so far! I don't deserve this!
*stomps off*

My True Color.....I totally agree...
Su, your true color is Red!
Your color is red, the color of racy sportscars, blushing cheeks, and luscious roses. Red symbolizes passion, romance, and love. So, since you're ruled by red, you probably trust your feelings more than your brain and tend to act spontaneously. If you see something you want, you go for it without thinking twice — impulsive is your middle name. You don't wait around for people to make decisions, either; you dive right in. Quite the romantic, you pay close attention to your emotions. In fact, if your heart isn't in what you're doing, you won't be satisfied. Of course, even when you do pour all your energy into the projects you tackle, your impetuous nature means your passions can shift as frequently as the wind. That's why some reds have trouble with commitment. Our advice? Next time you're feeling fickle, think before you act, if possible. You might be surprised at the results. Overall, though, it's great to be red. No one lives life more completely than you do.

A New Year = New Beginnings?
Happy New Year darlings!
So, how did I countdown to Year 2006, u ask? I chilled out at home with 2 movies: "13 going on 30" and a Burmese movie ( I've been feeling so nostalgic these days....). Both movies were good in their own sense. Anyway, thought I'll squeeze in a last minute New Year Resolution-->
- Give more attention to studies, felt like I've been neglecting it for a while.
- Appreciate in the people/things I have.
- I won't wallow in self-pity.
- Make the most of being single.
- I'll make sure I voice out my opinions even if it's with my parents.
- Have an optimistic outlook on life again, though it might seem impossible, especially at times like these.
- Smile more.
- Live!!!
I'm hoping for a better year this 2006......................................

What makes a winner?
That was one of the questions that was thrown to one of the male contestants in the Mr and Miss Singapore Polytechnic 05/06, held yesterday, 23rd of Dec. Now, I'm asking myself that question coz' I'm the 2nd-runner up (only). I'm hoping that writing the answers down to the question will somehow ease the blow of coming out third. Here goes nothing.....
1) A winner is not someone who bags the trophy, but someone who picks herself up when she falls and carries on with her journey, chin up, with a smile on her face.
2) In this pageant, everyone's a winner coz' we travelled the same route, faced the same challenges, received the same training and most importantly shared wonderful, invaluable memories which can never be replaced with either the title or the prizes, coz' you can't rewind time or buy those memories.
3) At least I'm in the top 3! That isn't bad at all!!!
4) It's tiring being a perfectionist, and I wasn't expecting anything anyway.
5) Remember Su, your main aim in participating in this pageant is to have the experience, make frenz, and have fun, fun, fun!!!
These answers are merely for my own benefit. Helps me see the bright side of things.
Right, now that I've got it settled, let me fill you in on the MMSP finals! heheh...
1100: Reported to school. Gathered at FC5 where our nannies forced us to eat our lunch. KFC, fast food.....something which I've vowed to abstain from.
1300: Proceeded to the Convention Centre. Had last-minute run through of the show, last minute changes, stuff....
1530: Make-up time!
1730: Morphed from natural beauty to glammed up divas! Yes! It took 2 hrs to have the hair and make up done! Maybe it even took longer, I'm just estimating here.....
1800: Ate packed dinner which tasted like .....wait, it didn't have any taste at all, coz' my tastebuds have mal-functioned, thanks to the havoc-ish nerves.
1830: Changed into our first wear, casual wear. Had to prep myself up for the show, mentally.
1900: Show begins! First item-->> "Relight my fire" dance.
1915: Rushed back to changing room to change into our beach-wear. I had to don a pareo and wear it as a tube dress.....not very flattering for my figure coz' it looked baggy, like a towel draped around me. *rolls eyes* I didn't have much choice when choosing the beach-wear, coz' had to keep a couple of things in mind__not exposing too much skin, and being different from the rest of the contestants, just to name a few.
1920: Beach-wear catwalk. I wasn't feeling IT! *geeez*
1930:Q & A. My question: If you were offered a choice between a modeling career with a prestigious agency or a degree in a prestigious University, which would you choose? My answer: The latter. Coz' it's always been my plan and with a degree, I've the freedom to choose the career I want and change it whenever I want, wherever I want.
2000: The crowning of "Ms Body Beautiful" and "Mr Physique". Eileen and Ian won the titles__no surprise there, everyone expected them to get the titles.
2010: Intermission for the audience. For the contestants, it was time to change hair dos, from casual chic to elegant up-do. After touch-ups, we changed into the ethnic wear. The girls wore Malay traditional costumes, while the guys wore Indian costumes.
2030: Garam Masala: that's the name of the ethnic wear performance. It wasn't judged so no point talking about it.
2050: Rushed back to change into our formal wear. Loved that formal dress I wore! Swooooooon! Even Andy J. (our choreographer) thought so.
2110: Formal cat-walk. Went pretty well.
2130: Q & A. Question: If you were to represent Singapore in an International pageant, what 3 things would you bring along to represent Singapore. Answer: A bunch of orchids, coz' it's the national flower. A miniature Merlion, coz' it's the Singapore icon and a no-littering sign, coz' Singapore's a Fine country.
2200: Waiting for tabulation of points.
2230: Still waiting......
2245: Crowning of "Ms Congeniality" and "Mr Personality". Eileen and JunHao won, based on votes alone. Crowning of "Mr and Ms SP".
2315: THE END!
Oh, I think I forgot to mention that at the earlier part of the day until the formal wear segment, I wasn't feeling like myself. I felt strangely calm and devoid of any emotions. That's why I had to prep myself up before the show starts and try to get excited and all. It was like I was watching the event from a distance. But I found myself back when I wore that gown, when I had the touch-ups and changed my hair-do to a formal up-do. If only I could wear that gown for a longer period of time......
After the curtain closed, and while the contestants hugged and thanked their supporters, I was left alone, in a daze, lost in a fog of blank emotions. I was trying to think of what I should be doing next when someone called out my name. It was a guy, one of the judges I presumed. He took my hand and congratulated me. Shaking my hand for about 3 min straight, he complimented me on my looks, performance, bla bla bla. I wasn't really listening. Then, he said "You were one of my choices from the very beginning....". That caught my attention. I went like "Hmmm?" in my head. I realized I didn't even know his name, so after thanking him again, I rushed on"Umm....sorry, I didn't catch your name.....", hoping that he really hasn't introduced himself to me. Imagine, if he did introduced himself and I wasn't paying attention, I'd be caught red-handed! Anyway, his name's "Daniel". He was picked as the "Most Eligible Bachelor" in...I forgot which year, but pretty way back I think. hahahha........Not that I'd care, I don't even know how his looks are coz' he was wearing shades. Physique-wise, pretty good....has the height and the proportionate build. *shrugs* oh well, at least I found a judge who likes me, among the 13 judges. *scoffs*
Formal cat-walk: Ian and I.........love the dress!
Taken with my lovely frenz__my supporters__my fans....lol....thanks for being there for me throughout the competition guys! love you! *muacks*
