38: The Epitome of Beauty


Suri Cruise sure is pretty for a 2 year old.

37: Candy shop

When I was 9 or 10, I got my first MP3 player and discovered MTV. Back then, I loved Hip Hop music. I loved Eminem's songs and I was a fan of 50 Cent. One day, I watched A7X's Bat Country on MTV for the first time, and I wondered why everybody loved it. I found it ridiculously noisy and thought that the bats thing was lame.

Okay, I was still young (and stupid) at that time.

So, when I first entered Secondary School, I got bored with Hip Hop and decided to discover more. That's when I started relistening A7X and fell in love with the band. I told myself to not be so narrow-minded and so started listening to other Metal bands (Atreyu) as well.

Then came the most dramatic year of my life: the 14th year. Things happen and I started growing up (mentally) and dropped A7X for MM cuz A7X to me was "happy music". As the days go by, I slowly stopped listening to A7X and added more MM into my playlist (Right now there's only 1 A7X song on my playlist).

Not long after I pledged loyalty to MM, I started listening to Blink-182, and that I found surprising. Blink-182's and MM are like complete opposites. While MM sings about his life, Blink-182 parodies other artistes in their videos. No doubt, Blink-182 did grow up and started producing more mature music.

Now I sit and wonder while waiting for my Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security 2007 to finish scanning my laptop. Will MM still dominate my playlist next year?



P.S. A7X = Avenged Sevenfold, MM = Marilyn Manson.

36: Everyday is exactly the same

I finally got a birthday card (and a cellphone strap) after a gazillion years.
I love cards!
So, Merci Beaucoup Meijia! (L)

Deleted all of the posts published in the past few days. I find them too short. So short that it holds almost no meaning. Flugh.

Went out with Meijia yesterday to IMM and trekked for almost 3 hours. Lol. Glad to hear that she's eating healthily now. :) Borrowed her December issue of Smitten Mag and went home. Oh, and the phone strap fits my cellphone perfectly! Now my cell's fierce and girly all at the same time!



35: The angel from my nightmare

Where are you and I'm so sorry
I cannot sleep I cannot dream tonight
I need somebody and always
This sick strange darkness
Comes creeping on so haunting every time


Been MIA these few days due to constant gaming.
In the past few days, I:
  • Completed both Crimson Sea 2, Van Helsing & Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones. (PS2)
  • Have been getting only 2 hours of sleep.
  • Bought Shu Uemura Rouge Unlimited Lipstick in 299 (Dark purple).
  • Have been gaining weight (Officially became a couch potato).
  • Developed red eyes and humongous eye bags.
Here's proof:

Fuhgly.

Also, I checked the length of my bangs yesterday and it was longer than I expected. It was covering the whole of my eye area and I'm very pleased with it.






The shade looks like Marilyn Manson's! (Lufs) :3

34: Psssh

32: MM talks sense

So, I've been reading a review of Marilyn Manson's biography called The Long Road Out of Hell. One paragraph (originally quoted from the book) woke me up.

“Satanism is not about ritual sacrifices, digging up graves and worshipping the devil. The devil doesn’t exist. Satanism is about worshipping yourself, because you are responsible for your own good and evil. Christianity’s war against the devil has always been a fight against man’s most natural instincts – for sex, for violence, for self-gratification – and a denial of man’s membership in the animal kingdom…. All the power LaVey wielded he gained through fear – the public’s fear of a word: Satan. By telling people he was a Satanist, LaVey became Satan in their eyes – which is not unlike my attitude toward becoming a rock star.”


Nevermind the LaVey stuff (He's the founder of the Church of Satan, just so you know), I finally realized that Satanism is not that bad as how we usually see it. No thanks to my annoying brother who keeps going on and on about how MM is satanic etc, and slowly changing my impression of MM. Fortunately, fate led me to this review and cleared up my negative thoughts about him being a Satanist.

Okay fine, you might not think he's that all bad. But I'm pretty sure you'll find him rather disgusting cos: 1) He's got no eyebrows and 2) He's got no armpit hair as well.

It's also said in the book that, by the publishing of his book, he had at least 450 scars on his skin. I'm not sure whether the reviewer was exaggerating but I suddenly feel inferior.

"Manson’s irony must be understood. The protagonist speaking in this song is the self-righteous American looking at the failed culture his religion has produced. Behind this twisted irony is Satan himself piercing the soul of “infallible” human self-righteousness. Manson laughs in glee when Christians attack his lyrics as offensive and pornographic, because (he believes) they are only proving his point. He is not the protagonist in the song. Therefore, when a famous Christian personality attacks him, they are attacking American Christianity and the culture they have created."
“Marilyn Manson is not the disease; he is just a symptom of our sick society.”




31: Typical

Did you forget that you weren't spposed to use white font anymore, Xuan Wen? Heh.

30: Smexxxy

Introducing, my style icon & favourite model: Dita Von Teese.



A fashion darling and innovator, Dita Von Teese, the International Queen of Burlesque, has secured her place in the global spotlight with her elegance, style and wit. She has been listed on prestigious best-dressed lists, and is a muse of haute couturiers. A trained ballerina, Dita's artful and provocative performances bring pin-up imagery to life and make the erotic fabulous. In 2005, she married alt-rocker/performance artist, Marilyn Manson. Her book, Burlesque, The Art of the Teese/Fetish and The Art of The Teese was published in 2006 (Regan Books/Harper Collins)

I just love her. I don't know why.
I love her style.
I love her makeup.
I love that she was once Marilyn Manson's muse.

29: Not fair

How could you?




What did you think I was gonna write here?


Fate fell short this time
Your smile fades in the summer
Place your hand in mine
I’ll leave when I wanna

This place was never the same again
After you came and went
How can you say you meant anything different
To anyone standing alone
On the street with a cigarette
On the first night we met

Look to the past
And remember and smile.
And maybe tonight
I can breathe for awhile.
I'm not in the scene
I think I'm fallin' asleep
But then all that it means is
I'll always be dreaming of you.


28: Ho ho ho!


Prezzies for TC5!
(I feel like Santa already o.O)

27: Homecoming

I'm finally back in Singapore. Bought a Chanel purse for Ying Shuang that looks something like this:
Similar, but not the same. :) I don't know the exact price she's gotta pay cuz the value for the Thai Baht has been fluctuating these few days. Zzz. It's less than $20, so don't worry so much Ying Shuang.

25: The little things

I bought souvenirs for TC5 & Meijia. Somehow, I know that you guys will love it. :)

24: Merci, all

Thankz all for the birthday wishes! Sorry this was a little late (my brother hogged up the laptop for the whole night so I got no chance to blog). Thankz to (in chronological order): Momz, Elaine, Meijia, Karin, Sheng Hao, Wei Xiang, Broz, Xuan Wen, Sharmain, Bella, Judith & Veng Yan. It's nice to know that there are people who care. :)

You guys made me feel special, for once.

23: Sawasdeeka (sp)

Greetings from Bangkok.

22: Afraid

Okay like my whole forehead area is hurting. The pain is like that of pressing a pimple, but no there's none on my forehead. I can't walk properly too cuz the muscle/ligament above my (uhm that bigger bone that protrudes out from the side of your foot) is not able to fully "expand"(????) and I'm really worried.


I think I should go for a checkup soon.

22: What the-

Okay so my Mom's watching this Taiwanese show which is something like Taiwan Idol or something. I don't know, I just heard singing so ....

There's this contestant who is from Singapore. He sang This Love and I thought it sucked. The articulation was not clear, yada yada yada ... Why did he even choose an English song to sing anyway? What a disgrace. Lucky for him, there was this Taiwanese guy who sang Umbrella, and forgot like 20% of the lyrics (way to go, man) which pretty much overshadows his mistakes. Flugh.

While everybody else (from 2e1) feels that the chalet was a success, I'm thinking the opposite. It was messy, and I got a free present of like 50 mosquito bites. I don't know which freak changed the air con temp. to like 18 degress celsius, which was far too cold for some of us to sleep in there. In every group, there is of course the irresponsible few who would leave their finished cup noodles everywhere. Like, how am I spposed to enjoy that? Srzly. And one major defect: how are 28 people spposed to squeeze in just 1 bedroom?

Chevrons sucks, despite its convenient geographical location (super convenient, I'd say), but that cannot make up for the infinite amount of mosquitos/rats/cockroaches inhabiting there. At least that's what I think, but I don't know about you.

21: Screw Screw Screw

What happened last night and this morning was a nightmare. I'm pretty glad it's all over now.


I'm home now. I have no intention of going back to the chalet cuz it's so damn hard to even get half-an-hour's sleep there. Plus, the crazy crazy people turned the whole house into a freezer by lowering the temp. to 18 degrees celsius. That's crazy. I, for one, cannot stand cold places.

Got Manson as a prezzie from The Clique 5. Thankz ever so much, guys. I love him!
(photos will be uploaded later on Flikr)

20: Hugz & Kizzes
