then you look at me

A few weeks ago, I decided to do something I don't normally do. I stepped out of my comfort zone and altered my hairstyle. What used to be spiky and gravity defying was now flat and humble. And this is how it is when i'm at home. Just me being my humble self. I stepped out in this style and got good responses all around. Some were shocked at how i looked and some said it doesn't suit me cos it does not represent my wild side. I'm like W H A T E V E R. But overall response was good.

BUT with this new style came new problems. People were approaching more and more. Most of the time, with my previous style, I sort of have an intimidating presence and a devil-may-care attitude which prevents alot of people from actually striking up a conversation with me unless they're really confident and daring. But with this new style, everyone was talking to me!

On the ride to work, this guy in front of me asked me for the time and then proceeds to talk about the weather. I'm looking at him in disbelief and just nodding and he's smiling and going on about the weather. And on that same ride a woman asks me about flight timings in and out of Macau and after I tell her she proceeds to tell me about her holiday plans which I seriously do not give a damn for. Out shopping, random people stop to ask me this and that. Often stupid trivial stuff. I feel like I'm wearing a "Feel free to approach and talk to me" sign.

Don't get me wrong. I welcome all sorts of human interaction but alot of the time, I just don't wanna talk to people. Seriously. So despite the good response, I've returned to my old hair which served me very well. And back to my regular diva-self.

I learned a lesson from all this, I look good no matter what ;) Sorry no pics!

you make me sick


SICK SICK SICK. I hate couples who dress alike! Colour coordinating is ok. BUT this one takes the cake. Lord.. help us all..

where the streets have no name

Had a big case of mistaken identity recently while on MSN. I have a friend who frequently uses the nick FallenAngel. In fact, it's become her solid calling card. We were close awhile back, always hanging out and talking about life and our dreams but grew apart recently. In fact, we only speak on MSN nowadays and ou conversations are polite and I guess we try to be as we were once but it just doesn't happen. So anyway, she went in for surgery a few months back. She says it's to remove a cyst or something but I suspect it's for cosmestic reasons ;) Being the caring friend that I am, i spread the word and we got a card sent out to her and never got back a thank you. So we assumed she died on the operating table.

Then a few weeks back, discovered her back online and we chatted for awhile. I never bothered asking her about the card. And life went back to normal. Today, I saw her online. Didn't bother to message her. She messaged me instead. And we spoke for awhile. I asked her how she was and so on. Then I asked when we were gonna meet and she said we can meet this week. Then the politeness in me came out and asked her how is she recovering from her surgery. And she asked me, "What surgery?"

I told her the surgery you went for in March. And she was like, "I didn't go for any surgery. U must be dreaming." I insisted, "No, you told me a few months back you went for surgery. I even sent you an get well card which i never got a thank you."


And she went on denying it. At this point, I thought to myself, this bloody bitch. She must have casually lied to me back then when I asked her out for a drink and she came up with this excuse of having to go in for surgery. And promptly forgot about it now. Which also explains why she didn't say thank you for the card. Cos she was guilty!! The dirty whore! I was so ready to attack her when I got this next message, "Are you sure you got the right person?"

Which sent me into turmoil. Uh oh.. Did i get it wrong? I checked the nick. Yea.. it was FallenAngel. I checked my contacts. Yea.. It was her. No way I could be wrong. No way no way. Then I saw another FallenAngel at the bottom. That was her. This was somebody else who had smartly changed HIS nick. I was flabbergasted. I was in shock. I wanted to die. I was like you fool!! Couldn't you tell me who you were in the first place? Lord.. I feel like such a fool.

Needless to say.. I was embarassed for all the thoughts and feelings I had. Sorry to the original FallenAngel. But you had it coming anyway.

grace kelly

These covers caught my eyes for different reasons. Rolling Stone never fails to amaze us with their cover shots. And this one is no different. It's been awhile since Rose was on any cover let alone nude. So it's qutie refreshing to see her. I like the shot alot. Classy.
Whereas the Carmen Electra one below has me in bewilderment. Where are her nipples?! Totally airbrushed away!! And are those chocolate coins on her or what? Nice shot too. Just abit sleaze. Then again, it is FHM.
