Me... and a bird

Hi y'all!!

I'm gonna go to Kukup for the weekend (it's a kelong thingy near JB) so I thought I should blog before leaving!

However, I have to wake up at 630am tomorrow and it's already 1am now so I don't really have time to do a good long entry.

So erm, another patronising entry??

Okok you all confirm won't be angry one you know WHY??? Coz the picture is not only an act chio photo of me but also contains a super cute something:

Yup, as the title suggests... Me and a bird! Yes yes it should be 'a bird and I'. Shutup.

Anyway that's my friend's baby parrotlet and it is so effing cute!!!!!! If you are angry just go look at His Puffiness over there.

It would hop on anyone's fingers and keep chirruping. And here it is, forced to camwhore with me while it has fun playing with my hair.

And thus ends today's entry. Moral of the story? Always exploit the cute things around you for blog entries.

**For evidence see few entries below, 'Mike's baby photos'.

p/s: There is a star on  my face coz they were giving out free stickers during the Samantha Thavasa store opening and I stuck one there to camwhore for a bit and promptly forgot about it. ~★

I don't do student interviews


Blah blah blah


Because that day totally exists


Moron


I don't do student interviews. I know I've mentioned this many times before.

Firstly, there is no positive upside to me giving an interview. My answers get published in some paper nobody will ever see except an uninterested lecturer. What a waste of my time.

Secondly, I HATE being typecast as just another person who had plastic surgery. I geddit that I'm one of the few who are open about it, but MY DEFINING THINGY is my blogging, not the surgery, ok??!

If they ask me to give an interview about blogging I won't be so pissed off but it's ALWAYS about fucking plastic surgery and DUMBSHIT questions nothing gives two flying fucks about.

Like "do you regret it?" "do you think you are addicted?" "Do you think our youths are addicted?" "How do your parents react?" "Why did you think you have to do it, is it because society is increasingly obsessed with beauty?"

What fucking era already? All these questions have been asked over and over and over again!

If one more person asks me another stupid boring politically correct question like that I'm gonna HURL!

Can't people ask more interesting questions like "How do you dig your nose after a nose job?" "When you can smell your nose's blood while it was cut, did it smell like bacon?" ETC??

Why can't they ask me how is blogging as a career? Or whether blondes really have more fun? But EVERYONE keeps asking me about CB plastic surgery! GO DISTURB PLASTICZILLA CAN???

I ignore people who email me politely to help them with an interivew. If they are being really nice, sometimes I reply that that I don't do student interviews. See, I can be nice to people who are nice!

But it absolutely makes me BOIL when I get the following:

1) This tone that suggests I am OBLIGATED to do their interview for them. Like they are paying me to do this or something.


"Come down to Ion to meet us at 12pm next Saturday, thanks." Yeah I WILL. To burn your face so YOU can get plastic surgery and answer your own damn questions.


"Please kindly revert by 4pm tomorrow." YOUR DEADLINE NOT MINE. Guess who doesn't give a fuck if you fail your module? ME.

People have even asked me to put on make up and go down to their schools for a "tv" interview. Why should I waste cab fare to do anything for you?? You wanna film me you come over lah!

2) People who obviously don't read my blog and still dare to ask for a favour!!!!!!! FFFUUUUUUUUUUU

If you read my blog or followed me on twitter you'd know I don't entertain student interviews! So if you are still gonna use a tone that suggests you take it for granted I'd agree, then fuck you!


I know I know... Why am I so mad just because people are asking me to do interviews?

I DON'T KNOW OK! It just infuriates me so bad! Especially when I already said I won't do it and people are damn buay paiseh! ESPECIALLY IF ITS AN INTERVIEW ON PLASTIC SURGERY!

Before my 30th of Feb trick (clearly, some people are too moronic for that to work) I was replying to people that I'd do their interviews in exchange for their first-born. So far nobody agreed.

Reebonz Spring Clean Blogger Contest

Advertorial

Hey girls!!

Wanna win some pretty (and expensive) bags?? Here's an awesome contest:




In case you can't be bothered to read the print, all you have to do is to create a spring outfit/look to match the bag of your choice among the six ultra cute bags above!

Easy peasy - AND fun!!



Spring has always been my favourite season. 

I know Singapore doesn't have four seasons but if you go to a seasonal country, Spring is when the weather is perfect... Sunshiny and not too warm. People are having picnics and rainbows are in the sky and the flowers are all blooming with roaring colours everywhere.

Just describing it makes me feel like donning on a chiffony, floaty sundress and sandals, flying a kite and falling in love!!!!

Woohoo!!

So in order to entice you to join the competition I am also gonna participate and come up with 3 spring outfits!!

But first, the difficult task... Choosing the bag!!


And... *drumroll* I choose the green Prada!!!

Love that shade, super got Spring ambience ok!!

(Please note my "outfits" are all, erm, modelled by myself. Apparently everyone else just did a polyvore sorta thing... You can choose either!)


LOOK 1:


Spaghetti strapped top with a playful pink chiffon skirt. The skirt has dusty blue bunnies all over it!

Coz spring is when bunnies have the most fun (ie fornicating LOLOLOL)!!


Make up is an essential part of the look!

Green contacts, green eyeshadow, pale rosebud lips and pink blusher for that flushed I-just-ran-about-in-the-sunflower-field look.

And not to forget, of course, romantic soft curls on the hair. :D


Posing with my bag of choice!

Haha the bag looks a bit crumpled coz it's actually empty.

Sorry all photos got no footwear coz my camera lighting cannot snap from far away wtf... Just imagine gladiator sandals or espradrilles with everything thanks.


LOOK 2:


My staple can't-live-without clothing item is the white wifebeater tank top!! Matches everything and is (to me lah) super sexy!! Ok I'm not sexy in it but imagine Megan Fox wearing it!

Actually don't need to imagine, she's wearing it in the Love the Way You Lie mtv.

I might have gone off tangent a bit. Back to the outfit!

Floral skirt. Predictable? I don't care! I love florals and I wanna wear them!

Garland of flowers on hair - it's fake but if people ask why I have flowers on hair I'm gonna say I gathered them while prancing around the lake.

And a little knitted fingerless glove which I kinda regret putting on coz it looks weird on only one hand and I lost the other side.


Camwhoring with the bag!






LOOK 3:


Lightweight perforated stripey red and white dress!!

Perfect for Valentine's day with a heart-shaped belt. Or on a yacht!

Wait, got surprise one!!


It's backless!


Chose this dress because I always loved the combination of chilli red and green. Matches so nicely AND is super attention grabbing! Love it.


If you wanna see the bags in closer detail, or participate, click HERE!!

If you are not a blogger, you can still shop on Reebonz! Your invite code is HERE, just click!! Warning though... It's pretty darn addictive.

AND GUESS WHAT?? I'd also be giving away one of the bags in this advert to a blog reader!!

So tell me which is your favourite of the bags? I actually like the blue Marc Jacob more but the green Prada, I thought, is the most "Spring", which is why I chose it for the pics.

Go join, and I hope you win!!!!!


UPDATE:

OMG! Sorry!! Had a miscommunication and as it turns out the bag I can give to a reader is not one of the bags given away in the contest but this one:


Classic sling bag that looks like what our SIA girls carry!

Leave a comment with your email and you stand a chance to win it!

Mike's baby photos

I was feeling stressed out coz I know it's time for me to fart out a new blog entry but erm... I blame it on my eyelash extensions. My beautician, since she is closing for CNY, did a 3 layered lash thing for me so that it won't all fall out before the 9th of February when she reopens.

Digressing there was a CNY when a big CHUNK of my lash extensions came loose. Ok fine I plucked it. It was right smack in the middle of my eyelid so imagine having a hole there!! A 1 cm hole!! CAN POKE A FINGER THROUGH.

Since the salon was closed and I cannot escape not seeing anyone on CNY day 1 and I can't remove the rest of the extensions myself I cut off ALL LASHES INCLUDING MY REAL ONES.  

(Did I blog about this before?? I've been eating Gingko nuts at every possible occasion but my memory is still abysmal.)

Everyone thinks I'm mad crazy/brave to have 1mm eyelashes but I think MEH! There's always falsies!

And no it's a myth that lashes will grow back thicker and longer after cutting them.


So yes back to blaming my lashes for not having a blog entry. They are mad heavy so I can't bring myself to photoshop my photos! It's very tiring ok!! *ahem*

As I was looking through my unpublished camera's uploads, I saw that I took a lot of Mike's baby photos from photo frames in his grandma's house so I thought they would suffice for a blog entry!

Somemore best, don't need to photoshop!!!!!!!! :D :D :D

Ok before I proceed to Mike's baby piccies I have to talk a bit about myself. I cannot help it, my self-absorbedness is too strong.

That day I was asking my mom whether I was an ugly child. It was really sad coz she hesitated a little before answering and said, I quote, "Not really lah."

CCCBBBBBBB!!!

I never realised it but I think I was mad hideous as a kid FML. Whenever people meet me they always commonly say "Wah she looks like Japanese".

This was back in like 1989 or something so it's not the chio gyaru Japanese but like the white-faced small-eyed kinda Japanese. (I'm not saying that's a bad thing)

I always felt that that's a compliment but now that I look back upon it, I think it's coz they have nothing better to say and they can't bring themselves to say I'm pretty or cute!! Coz I was not!! I was mostly sweaty with mushroom hair. But I was fair. So people always commented on that.

I asked my mom why nobody ever said I'm pretty + gave her a :(

She replied that it's coz I'm always seen with my cousins who have ginormous eyes, dimples, non-mushroom hair and didn't sweat that much. So "of course" nobody said I'm pretty.

FML!!!

Why couldn't Momo have hung out with friends with uglier, sweatier, mushroomier kids???

I wonder what it's like to be a parent who knows that your kid is not a looker. As a preemptive measure I'd probably say to everyone who just met my daughter "Yeah she's not pretty but her grades are not bad/she can play the violin/she just got 97/100 for her maths test" so that I'd save them the trouble of having to dig out a nationality to praise her looks.

Or I could just watch them struggle. When someone finally says "Your daughter? So cute/pretty!" I'd yell "HYPOCRITE!! LOOKS IS NOT EVERYTHING, OK?!" and huff away. LOL!

Mike's mom didn't have this problem.


In green: Mike. In blue: Second oldest brother Daniel. In red: Third oldest brother Paul.


Baby Mike with chio Mom in background


He was born blond!

That button nose is just too much, I wanna bite it!


Check out Mike's teeth. He has super perfectly straight teeth now (HATE HATE HATE) and I asked him before if he had braces and he said no.

So I yelled "You lied! You had braces!" when I saw the photos and he was like... "I didn't. My wisdom teeth grew out and closed up that gap."

Don't hold on to me, just let me jump off this building. The world is SUPER unfair.



His brother Paul has super white blond hair!! I might have mentioned blond-ness too many times. Erm therefore also check out Mike's brown hair. And my hair's roots which are black.


Mike with his cousins


Ok this was when Mike became kinda fat in high school!! LOL!!
But he sibeh act handsome!!

(That's his dad and youngest brother Jacob)


BONUS!!!


I took a photo of a photo of baby Ryder, Mike's cousin's son. He is so super cute if you don't go AWWWWWWW you are not human! Behold:

Photo of adult Mike checking out his old photos and probably wishing our future kid looks like him instead of me.




p/s: Just in case people say I'm racist for posting my husband's family's baby photos I also post one Asian baby photo.


This one is ok only, would be better with blonde hair and blue eyes.

KIDDING!! KIDDING IT'S A JOKE!!

Don't be so uptight it's Chinese New Year! And look, babies!!
