Stupid blogger.com is still not fixed yet. Why?!!Time: 5/11/2007 09:45:00 PM
So I'm just gonna blog. Dunno if this will get published... But I need to blog! I'm super bored. Blog-therapy.
Been having a bout of low self esteem all of a sudden. I just loathe looking at myself in the mirror. Don't ask me why... I just do. I feel ugly...
What a 21st-century-guy to do?
Go for a facial.
The first... in almost a year for me. I lost my way looking for the place in Orchard Road (I need more brain food... such a himbo).
Decided to try something else other than the usual exfoliation and facial steam.
Microdermabrasion (I think its spelt that way...).
Painful as hell.
Its like a cross between a vacuum cleaner and a sander. Whatever is scrapped off the skin is sucked away.
Ouch.
I have had a few surgeries in my life: my lower lip operation and my many (four to be exact) wisdom teeth extraction surgeries. Mind you, I was awake for all the surgeries (thank God for local anaesthesia). I heard every breaking teeth and the drill drilling into my mouth. I felt the knife slicing into my flesh and every prick of the needle stitching me up. But none could prepare me for microdermabrasion. I was digging my right pinkie into my chest to take away the pain from my face.
Did it work? Was my self esteem restored after that?
Maybe the complementary massage helped a bit.
But my face was devoid of any facial expressions after that for the next few hours...
It felt like I had taken botox.
Haha... Another stupid entry. Muahaha...
PS: I found a solution to the problem (something was wrong with the 'create post' page; the icons were all over the page and some links didn't work).
Solution: Just add a 2 to the http://www.blogger.com/post-edit... to make it http://www2.blogger.com/post-edit... Refresh the page after that. Everything should be fine. Its inconvenient but it works. Been snooping around and I found out it only affects Singaporean bloggers using Singnet. I hope blogger.com will do something about this.

New Phone! New Nose?

Santa Claus came early this year.
Cause... I got myself a new phone!!!
And I so love the phone! Finally after 2 months (or so) of using that primitive phone (since that horrific snatch theft incident... a minute of silence... sob sob...), I've finally found the perfect phone for me!
N73!!!
Here's what's so good about the phone, everything!!!
Its not just a handphone (or a cell phone or a mobile...), its also a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics that can provide vivid photo quality for prints up to 10'' x 8. And that is so damn important for a camera whore like myself. There is also an built-in flash which will leave you temporary blinded for some time (I kid you not!). Plus it has auto-focus (*gasp*... so say goodbye to shaky shots!) There's also another camera at the front for its 3G functions. And all your shots (or 'crystal clear' videos) are beautifully framed in its 2.4'' viewfinder.
Some of my first few shots... (FYI my hair is not that blonde in person)
Plus, its built-in digital music player and stereo speakers are so loud!!!
There are other 'normal' functions like 3G, RealPlayer, radio, calculator, BlueTooth, Infra-red, web connection and stuff. And with new functions like Nokia Lifeblog and Flikr, blogging and uploading pictures are merely a mouse click away! Even bloggers like Mr Brown, Adrianna and Chubby Hubby are using it (see here).
I feel like I'm helping Nokia promote the handphone.. lol...
Well, the phone itself is a decent-looking candy-bar phone.
And since its close to Christmas, its a friggin steal!!!
Well, guess I'm not the only one with an early present, Wendy a.k.a Xiaxue from 'Xiaxue.blogspot.com -Everyone's reading it' got herself a brand new nose.
Courtesy of the producers from 'Girls Out Loud'.
The show is probably the best thing from local TV since... erm... ever(?). It kinda reminds me of 'The Simple Life' (Ros is Paris, Wendy is Nicole, naturally) with a bit (just a lil' bit) intelligence, some brattish pranks and a whole load of bitchiness.
I simply adored last week's episode with Miss Izzy a.k.a SPG. I was tickled silly when Ros said she loved Miss Izzy's accents, all three of them (that was like a slap to her face lah...). And they further cornered her into admitting she talks to herself (poor girl must have no friends) to perfect her made-up (mix-and-match) accent. Someone pass me the tissue please, I'm tearing (from rolling on the floor laughing, not because of her 'sob story'). Haha... Stupid delusional people!
Pictures from xiaxue.blogspot.com
So back to her new nose. Wendy said she wanted a new nose and the show could follow her surgery... So it would be FOC (free-of-charge) then.
Smart girl... Cunning.
But this coming from someone who was 'slaughtering' Dawn Yang for her alleged plastic surgery (or surgeries...). There are more pictures of Wendy's surgery in this week's '8 Days' issue (FYI, the big-sized edition of '8 Days' magazine also has a 2007 calender... nice...).

Last words: My sister got the U-Zap thingy (like what Fiona Xie uses on those commercials). And I'm having a blast with it. On the spare tire around the waist, on my thighs and calves.
On my head (warning: causes headaches) and neck (really not recommended, painful as hell).
Hopefully my gut disappears before school reopens.

Dawn Yang: Revisited.
Bitched on: Tuesday, December 19, 2006

I have to admit something. Time: 12/19/2006 12:56:00 AM
I did a really foolish thing.
Exactly a year ago.
God, I can't even believe I'm posting this entry. Haha...
You know how I would go gaa-gaa talking about Dawn Yang (or Dawn Yeo as she was known some time ago)?
Well, one year ago, on the same day, I found her Friendster profile.
And I... (God, I'm freaking ashamed of this) added her to be my friend.
But... one year passed and its still unaccepted.
Haha... What a loser. Hahaha...
And add to the embarrassment and the 'loser-ness', I wrote her a message too which is also (surprise surprise...) left unreplied for a year.
OK, don't judge me. But this was before I found out about her supposed post-surgery pictures and other controversies surrounding her. And I was seriously crazy about her then.
Now not so much...
The subject was "WOW. i found THE Goddess".
Crap. I'm even ashamed of the title.
"haha, guess you must haf a lot of fan mail and might even forgo my mail but ill try my luck nonetheless.
no you dont know me but i know you (as much as the New paper write about you, haha)
no i'm not an old balding chikopek or an office pervert on his computer 24 7, but im a plain looking guy with insecurities who stumbled on your friendster jus before i wrote this message.
i noe u r not a movie star or anything but im jus a BIG fan ever since i saw your pic on the NEW paper.
i reassure you im not a stalker or anything but i would like to be included in your large LARGE circle of friends (460 up to date, or izzit your fan mail?)
haha, i envy you a lot. u r blessed wif perfect looks,great brains and deep pockets. i hope you dun feel insulted but im sayin this whole heartedly. God must haf spent all his efforts on you and i happened to be his next work (cos He was exhausted after you haha, im so lame)
send me a mail, if u feel up to it (wat am i sayin? a goddess mailin back??)
Wow, u really r something. and wat a name too."
What the hell? Haiz.... I'm so ashamed . Hahaha.
What can I say, I do not have a way with the ladies.
I ended up sounding like a sex-crazed desperate pervert.
I ended up sounding like a sex-crazed desperate pervert.
Gosh... I should just walk around with my finger and my thumb in the shape of an L on my forehead.
But heck, after the alleged plastic surgeries and post-surgery pictures emerging to support these claims, I'm not so keen anymore (yeah sure... like she had wanted me in the first place).
Tell me, are these pictures of the same person?
Hmmm....
PS: I admit, I do reject requests of strangers to be my friends in Friendster (especially if they are freakishly ugly and delusional... hahaha...).
But hey, that's life...
I watched today's episode of 'Tyra Banks' show about how beautiful people have it easier and not so beautiful ones have it harder in life (work, how surrounding people react and respond, day-to-day stuff, etc.).
So they tried to this 'research' with two gorgeous identical twins. They had one 'uglified' (with braces and a huge fake nose) and both twins were supposed to get people walking on some street to do some sort of a survey.
And 'surprisingly' the 'uglier' twin had 0 surveyees and many people (especially guys) had no problem stopping to help the sex-kitten... I mean prettier surveying twin... with the surveys.
Haiz... Life sucks doesn't it?
So I can't wait for my chemical peel... which would be in a couple of years time (*fingers crossed*).
I can't wait to look normal...

Since I am in the habit of 'revisiting' my entries, I thought I would revisit this particular entry, Estatic about Aesthetic Surgery.Time: 2/25/2006 08:52:00 PM
I came across this website offering body implants (that sounds so weird..) in a health magazine. Go check it out to see what I mean.
Other than the usual breast and butt implants, they also provide (not hands or heads, don't worry) pectoral, tricep and calf implants...
Gee.
That makes going to gym look dumb.
I mean why sweat it out when you can just go under the knife for that well toned body?
While I am under the anaesthetic, why not do a little lipo and add six hard lumps under my abdominal skin. That would be easier that having to do 100 crunches on my swiss ball, wouldn't it?
Or why not add implants on my pecs (chest), bicep and triceps (arms)?
I will never have to carry weights again (or anything heavier than a spoon)...
Not forgeting my gluts (butt cheeks) and calf implants.
I don't have to ever run on the treadmill again.
Forget that, I will never have to run in my life again.
Probably because I'll be permanently immobilised when the silicon implant leaks.
While I am already doing a whole body implant thingy, why don't I exchange my brain with a working one too?
P.S. To those visiting the web site, please do not be offended by the nudity (mostly pictures of naked breasts...)
