The day before my annual dinner, someone really special to me came to KL just for my annual dinner. (: Miss Georgia Tan purposely came all the way just to support me for the Miss Notts competition and I'm deeply grateful for that.


There were hiccups here and there when she arrived and I couldn't thank TheBoyfriend enough for helping me pick her up and all. And my apologies to you Sayang for having to wait for TheBoyfriend to finish his never-ending meetings.


Anyhoo I was really, really glad to see you that night. (: I was so excited and all. I hope you like the little spot that I brought you to. Where you can view the whole of KL. The next time you come, I'll bring you elsewhere. A place where they serve steak and it's really breezy up there and the best part is, it's only 15 minutes away from my place!


We went to bed pretty early that night and had to get up early to go to One World Hotel the next day. I had to be there at 12 pm when the dinner only starts at like, 8pm? T_T Tired much.

One side of the hall.


When we arrived we left our things in one of the waiting rooms and we went for brunch. This time we didn't fight for the bill cuz Georgia made me say I won't fight for the bill. -_- What happened the night before was that we were fighting to pay for supper. The poor cashier was so helpless he looked at his colleagues cuz Georgia was like, "NO NO TAKE MY MONEY!" and then I just spoke to the dude in Malay hoho and he took my money instead.


"Ya lar ya lar. Use malay language against me lar now."


Nyahahahaha..


Anyhoo I had to do my things so Georgia roamed around OneU and even went for FACIAL!


There was a little miscommunication which resorted to me and Yenli having to like, rush our shower session. Well, we were demanded to go to the makeup room by 4.30 pm. And by the time we got up to our room it's almost 4 pm and there was someone in the shower already.


When the girl came out we went to check out the bathroom and hah! There were two sides, one shower, one bath! So we were like, "Ok I take this side, you take that side. Don't turn and look ok!"


-_-


Then when we were done we were like, "Eh you done? Ok ok I'm wrapping myself now. You wrapped yourself already? Can turn now? You sure ah.."


It's really quite funny now that I recall how urgent we were. LOL.



This is NOT my table. Was just sitting randomly at a table and snapped a blurry artistic photo.



Before makeover! Hoho!


Just look at all the colours available. So many colours! Me likey!


And and and, my makeup artist is really pretty! You can't tell in this picture cuz Kwo Kuang took a picture when she wasn't ready isk. I had a picture with her but it's in her camera -_-


She speaks only mandarin so sometimes when she tells me something I'll stone for a while and then reply cuz I was translating haha. And it's pretty hard to understand her when she had that mask on.






After the heavy makeup and Kinder Bueno that Georgia got for me cuz I was hungry.



Happy much?



I like this photo! Thanks Kwo Kuang!


Kwo Kuang had his makeup done as well haha damn vain ok. In fact, all the semifinalists had their makeup done. The guys were looking a little fairer than usual haha.



Yenli, me, Kwo Kuang. Nike, Adidas, Nike.


While the makeup artist was doing my hair, MischievousGeorgia was spotted tiptoeing behind me and I spotted those roses and that sheep-goat! Then I was like, "I SAW THAT!"


Actually I should have just pretended like I didn't see but it was so funny I had to let her know haha.



My Sayang (: And this is the only picture-in-toilet that I have. See how special you are? (:


Then we went back to the waiting room and we had to be quarantined. Damn sad.



Yenli and me.



James and me.



Kisses for you? Haha I guess not.



2/3 of the finalists. Weng Phoon, James, me and Yenli.


Haha told you the guys were fairer than usual.



Kwo Kuang hahahahahahahaha! You're damn fair lehhhhh!


When Georgia saw me, she was like, "Omg babe all I can see are your eyes!"


The eye makeup was pretty heavy actually and in the picture above, you can tell that I had fake lashes on. Which was really, really weird.


Tell you what happened.


First, my makeup artist wanted to curl my lashes and as soon as she picked up that curler I was like half shrieking, "Omg I don't want that oneeeeeee!"


She thought I'm not used to people doing it for me so she told me to do it myself then I was like, "I've never used this thing before.." Then she curled for me omg that felt really scary.. Truth be told, each time I do my makeup, I've never used a curler cuz I don't have one. I don't use it cuz I think my lashes are curled naturally so I didn't want to use them.





Then after she curled my lashes for me, she told me she's gonna put fake lashes for me and I soddof asked her do I even need those don't need to be so kua cheong (over the top - I think). Then she told me cuz I'm going on stage so it will open up my eyes and make my eyes more visible.


As if they weren't visible enough already T_T


After putting the fake lashes on, Yenli and I were like, "Omg can see shadow lehhh.." just because we've not used them before. It felt really, really weird but after a while we got used to it and we were like, "Eh no more shadow already haha!"


For your information, my eyelids felt so heavy it's so strange.



Maria - One of the organizers for this Mr&Ms Notts competition.



We're all doing James' favourite pose hehe.


My eyes look bigger than my nose and lips.. No wonder Georgia was saying all she can see are my eyes.



Group shot! Minus Lesego.



This picture is damn funny ok haha I don't know what to say cuz the picture is so, so random.


We have Agha, Weng Phoon, James and Yenli at the back row acting cute. Me acting all happy. Kwo Kuang was so hungry that he wants to eat my fingers, my poor poor fingers. Maria was acting cute. Yi Yang at the front row was frightened by something, I don't want to know what you saw in that room ok. Emmanuel and Joseph being cool.


So random right???



Me, Maria and Lesego. Ahhh and Yenli who intruded the photo.



The finalists and our two 'managers'.. Well, minus Lesego again. She's always missing!


It sucks to be in our dance outfit cuz when the others came, they were dressed in suits and pretty dresses and we're like so casual. So sad. So no before dinner pictures for this year..



Friends! From left to right: Me, Kiwi, Kelvin, Weng Phoon, Yenli, DunnoWho, Kenny.


Everyone looked so good that night!



Kenny who had to squat cuz he's like, super tall! Even taller than TheBoyfriend.


These are the only before dinner pictures I have. So sad. T_T


Anyway, revision's a bitch and I think I'm gonna murder maybe, 2 of my lecturers cuz it's really so painful to study. First one was when I start reading, I kept hearing his voice, which isn't funny at all. It's so annoying cuz he doesn't speak fluent English and his sentences are punctuated at all the wrong places! After trying super hard to understand the notes, I just gave up. It really isn't me to just give up just like this but it was really, really horrible. Trust me on this.


Then I have this module where the notes are super short. Like really super short such that when you read it, you don't even know what the hell you're learning. So I'm reading the book. It's almost like, you might as well not give out notes and ask us to purchase the book and tell us all to bring the book to class or something. -_-


Oh.. I complained to TheBoyfriend about him telling me to take MHw and him taking care of me stuff like that is making me lazy. Then he told me, "Oh oh I know. The prerequisite for MHw is MSc."


-_________________________-


So I asked, "What about BEng or MEng?"


"Can be considered.."


Aduh.. Honestly I don't know what happened to me but I've totally lost the drive to study. Maybe it's because of the courseworks that drained me.. T_T


Anyway.. I hope this post will keep you all entertained for maybe a week or so cuz I really have to study otherwise my first class will fly away.. Wish me luck!

During the annual dinner week, the finalists for the Ms Notts thingamajig thing went for fitting at Bangsar Village II cuz we have someone to sponsor our dress for the catwalk (:


Tried on like maybe two dresses but none fits me. Why am I so small? Sometimes it really sucks being so petite and skinny alright cuz nothing really fits? And sometimes when I see something I really like I can't bloody fit into it it's so sad.


Anyhoo the salesgirl at the shop was pretty helpful she gave me this dress that she said is really really small so I can definitely fit into it and voila I really CAN fit into it! Wheee~~ But you'll have to see my annual dinner post for the picture of the dress. (:


After that we went for lunch at Delicious. Ordered our food and then while waiting, we camwhored! What else????



Quote Soon Seng "Ms Notts by default" hahaha I'm quite thick-skinned thank you.



Posers.



This picture is damn funny haha! She has the other one of me in Facebook. Just too lazy to upload it here as well hehe.



Steffi and Yi Yang!


These two people are the nicest people ever to work with. Compared to *CoughMichelleIpCough* cuz they're both really really nice and very understanding and they don't yell at you. d:


Instead of feeling all stressed up, we all just had fun throughout the whole thing. (:



Group photo of the girls.


Then somehow there was not much photo left to take. Then Yenli whipped out all the pink gadgets gosh I swear I can faint from all the pinkness and she's like sitting right next to me oh my gosh I don't even remember how I left Delicious alive. -_-



Yenli's very uncreative way of arranging her pink gadgets.


Yenli ah Yenli, how are you gonna attract people to buy your stuff like that?



Must arrange like this ok! See how I market your stuff? Hahahahahaha!


Anyhoo the pinkness is really overwhelming. At least your bag is not pink. d:


Then finally our long-awaited food arrived!!



Lasagna. I think three person had this.



Yi Yang's food. Don't remember what is it. I'm not a fan of cheese hence I don't really bother..



My super yummilicious salmon sandwich!!!!!!


T_T Looking at the picture makes me hungry........


Hmmm ok I'll probably go to OneU this Wednesday and look for TheBoyfriend for dinner then we can have this salmon sandwich again hoho. I think studying too much makes me crave for food.


I tell you, every night I crave for different food. Last night I was debating with EdmundChow whether to go to PJ and look for him for supper and then after 30 minutes I decided not to and my stomach was growling like a hungry tigress already. Then that bugger had to rub it in by saying he's gonna get KFC.


T______________________T


Then fineeeeee I was talking to KC. He said he wants to come back to Cheras and then we can go to Oldtown for coffee. Like old fellas you know. "Coffee no sugar please"


Then sip it from those teacups damn old school but cute right? But then that's not what I want.. I told him let's go KFC instead. Then he said he just had McD's Fried Chicken in the morning.. Sighhhhhh.. Then debated for quite sometime about what to eat and then I decided if I waited any longer I'd die of starvation so I went to cook Nissin Cup Noodles instead.


Now my best friends are cup noodles, milo and whatever junk food I can get to keep me awake.


So sad..


Last but not least..



Yenli and Eu Ling's pasta.


They said it's really filling. I can see why. The portion is quite big and cheesey (I assume it's cheesy).. I need not say much, do I?


And I'm blogging at this hour now and I'm hungry again but I just made myself tomyam seafood to eat. Like, loads of veggie and sotong and crabstick.


Anyway my revision plan is going alright I guess. I'm on track so I hope it'll stay that way till the exam comes. I have 6 papers this semester with only one week of study break. I swear those people in the School of ChemEng is trying to kill us.


I'm having headache over what to do as well. I mean should I just do MEng or finish it at BEng. Then continue taking MSc. My parents left me to make the decision. One thing I'm glad is that my parents trust whatever I'm doing they know I know how to think what's best for myself.


Well you see. Having to choose between MEng and MSc is already giving me quite a headache and some people had to tell me to take PhD instead. T_T You think I'm like what? Some freaking genius here? And I don't want to be a lecturer............


Then we have TheBoyfriend who told me, "Don't take MEng or MSc." So I was thinking he'll probably ask me to stop at BEng. Then he continued "Take MHw.. You can come do your internship at my place."


-____________________________________________-


Master in Housewif-ing.


Things that he would come up with.. But really, this is not a time to inject such thoughts into my head cuz you're really spoiling me. I might take my studies for granted cuz you keep telling me you'd take care of me but even though you know I won't take my studies for granted.


Sighs. Decisions decisions.


I don't want to just make rash decisions. I want to evaluate my results and then see if I'm capable of pursuing it further. I don't want to take MSc and then halfway through realize that I can't really do it cuz it's so tough. So now I must make sure I have strong foundations in whatever I'm doing so that it will be easier for me next time.


Sometimes I think I grow up a little too fast. In the sense of making decisions and planning and thinking of things stuff like that. Things that people will not see, I would have seen it. I know many will probably say you still have a long time to go before you need to make your decision but I want to know where I might be going first. At least I have a destination.


My dad was asking me about my internship applications, whether have I gotten any reply or not. Told him no and I need to follow up as soon as my exams are over. I can't possibly do it now. My exams are more important. He told me he has some connections so he can get me a job. But I said no.


Why you ask? Like I said, I think too much.


First thing is, if my dad introduces me to someone he knows, I'm expected to work harder. Not for myself, but for my dad. What would people think of him if I can't do my job properly? I don't know how others think about this but if I were to work, I don't want to work for people that my dad knows cuz his reputation is at stake. Somehow my performance is related to him, no?


Secondly, it will be a lot more stressful for me. Probably I'll try too hard and end up exhausting myself.


Sigh. Decisions decisions.


Maybe yeah. The easiest is to take up MHw and then do my internship at TheBoyfriend's house. d:


Oh MamaSaw gave me a amethyst crystal pendant. It's in the shape of an apple. Apparently apple-shaped crystals are good for relationships. Goodie goodie! Means she likes me! (: And oh, amethyst crystals are good for studies too! Double combo hoho!


Anyway I need to go now I need to go to bed and go to the morning market with my mum tomorrow.

I'm so freaking sick of doing plant design. Firstly, we spent 2 days working on the coursework like, back to back. Then when it's finally done I brought it home to type the report out.


I refuse to hand in handwritten work cuz it's so messy and I'm in a uni already. It's time to be more professional and hand in 'professional' work. I'm not being kiasu (Ok maybe a little) but don't you think it's more impressive seeing a report that is typed out instead of written?


But anyway that's not the point.


When I came back, my friend (From another group doing the same title as me) said someone calculated one of the Cp (Specific heat capacity/heat capacity) wrongly! Which actually affects everything. T_T


I had to do all the area calculations again to get the cost of my heat exchanger network. Fuck.


Then when it's all finally done, I wanted to type out the report using Excel and Words (DUH). Then I used Excel to key in the values so that I can generate my graphs and do my heat interval and enthalpy balance shit like that. Then while typing everything, I realized.. THERE ARE MISTAKES IN THE CALCULATIONS!!! T__________________________T


Which means.. I HAD TO DO THE AREA CALCULATIONS AGAIN AGAIN!!!!!


And also recalculate the cost of everything.


Fuck fuck fuck.


T____________________________________________________________T


I really wished I would just die on the spot. Now it's like 4 plus am and I just completed everything and sent it to Eveleen to be printed since she's staying in Semenyih so she can go submit it on Monday.


I'm so sick of doing the same thing for God-knows-how-many-times.


Because of this plant design coursework, I've cursed so much, more in 2 days than ever in my life. See what some stupid heat exchanger network can do to you? Especially when the lecturer keeps changing the information of the project.


And now what I can do is pray to God that there will be nothing wrong with the coursework anymore cuz if I have to do it again I might just die on the spot.


Exam starts on the 30th and I've yet to really study. I'm so doomed. T_T

To the most wonderful woman I've ever known in the entire universe who bore me for 9 months and took great care of me till now and loved me unconditionally..


HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUMMY!


You probably won't read this but I just want to let everyone know you're the greatest mum! (: I love you and I hope you'll stay young (at heart) and beautiful forever. (:


*****


Happy 21st Brian Shim! Thanks for being such a great friend since the day I knew you. I wish you'll have a blessed birthday. (:


*****


Happy 24th Yung Han! Our history is like, long long way back and it's really surprising to see you in Notts doing your degree. This goes to prove the world is small eh? (:


Anyhoo happy birthday and have a good one!


*****


Yes, three birthdays on the same day. Anyhoo my phone finally died on me after serving me for about 3 years. Blardy LCD. A bit sayang but it's alright.


I'm gonna blog about my Annual Dinner soon. I have so much to do you'll have to wait. And oh by the way, I didn't win Miss Notts. Sorta expected that (: But it's alright I had loads of fun working with the people involved in the thing.


Alright gotta go! Plant design!

My university organized a charity event - Fresh Labels: A SIFE Fashion Show 2008 on the 21st of March in Zouk KL. But before I go to the day of the event, let's get down to the dirty, juicy gossips and bitchings about the preparations before the day itself.


So we all only started practising less than a week before the event. The clothes were not sorted out and stuff like that. So the whole thing was pretty badly organized. Well, that's what I think. And you know how busy I was this year. So much work and I had other commitments as well. Although I do have other things that I need to do, I still took time and went for practices cuz well, I'm not a catwalk model, just a model for photography.


Then on the day before the event, 20th of March, we had a final rehearsal. It was supposed to be a full dress rehearsal. Practice was initially scheduled at 6 pm and then about 5 minutes to 6, we got a text message saying that practice is delayed to 6.30 pm. How nice. So fineeeee, waited for another half an hour. Then Yasmin, Joey and I decided to help out and took the racks to the room so that we will not waste time.


So at 6.30 pm, the others came and then we found out the reason for the delay in practice. Some of the models were stuck in the train as they were on the way back from somewhere.


Then we proceeded with the rehearsal without the few girls. Anyway it wasn't really a rehearsal cuz what we did was just wear the clothes and then line up. -_- So when the whole thing was over and done with, I had to leave cuz I've already had arrangements with friends and my parents who are supposed to pick me up from Semenyih. So I told Anis I had to leave and he said alright and so I left. 5 minutes later Aaron called me and asked where am I and asked me to return back to the dance room. Told him I was leaving uni already and heard Michelle in the background saying it's only for 5 minutes. So ok I'll just give her another 5 minutes.


When I re-entered the dance room, the first thing that greeted me was her super fucked up face and her yelling at me saying, "Can you just not leave like that?"


I think she said something along the line of it being rude I don't remember that part anymore. Then I told her I've told Anis that I'm leaving and he said ok. At that point, I think I ought to be applauded for controlling myself from yelling at her cuz I admit I do not have the best temper but I try my best not to simply yell at people.


She continued yelling/shouting, "Next time tell me! Don't go to anyone else! I'm the person in charge here! So if there's anything, whether you want to go to the toilet or whatever, come to me! Do you understand????? Cuz I might have something important to tell you all."


So I replied with a pretty sarcastic "Ohhh kaaayyyy!"


Then she continued being really unreasonable. "You people are pissing me off! I've been trying to arrange practices and everytime there's someone who can't make it! You're giving me excuses like you have your Miss Nottingham practice! You're stuck in the train or bus! Or your relative's in an accident!"


"Do you know that last year for our fashion show, we had to skip classes and go to Zouk itself to practice?!"


Then she made some really fucked up faces and I really felt like throwing the table at her at that point but whatever.


She then told us, "For tomorrow, bring whatever accessories and shoes that you think might match the clothes. Please remember to bring them and I don't want to hear any excuses that you've forgotten to bring them or you left them at home ok! That's all."


Seriously? That's all. And her tone of that "That's all" was really so bitchy I really tried super hard to zip my mouth and prevent myself from saying, "Are you sure that's all. So can I leave now?"


I was so pissed I stormed out of the room and I slammed the door. I think I've never been to pissed at someone before. I really, really felt like slapping her for being so rude. To be fair, I wasn't the only one who left. Another girl left too but she let it out on me super what the fuck kind of stuff.


Firstly, I NEVER said a thing about her delaying the practice by half an hour at the very last minute. And about my Miss Nottingham thing? For fuck's sake, I only went for a while for the dance and then I had to rush to YOUR freaking model practice and most of the time I miss my dinner time and I end up with a very bad gastric. And do you even care about that? I guess not. All you care about is yourself.


Then when people try to talk to you about your attitude, you just didn't want to take advice from other people and then said, "Her parents should have just waited another 5 minutes!" and then slammed the car door.


Like seriously. Who the fuck are you that my parents must accommodate your freaking time? If you do not respect other people's time so why should we? You've delayed the thing for half an hour, other people have made arrangements and you should understand that and not be so selfish. My world doesn't revolve around the fashion show.


Secondly, when you made that statement about you having to go to Zouk for practice and skip classes, I really wanted to say "Good for you." I'm not trying to belittle or degrade business students but I do believe that engineering students have a lot more to do than business students. And for us, skipping ONE class means skipping A WHOLE LOT of things. Let's put you in Plant Design class and have you skip one class. We'll see how you'll survive. But seriously, good for you that you are so committed to the fashion show. As for me, sorry I really wouldn't sacrifice my studies.


The next day, in the bus, when Yasmin was trying to reason things out with you, you just had to say, "I'll apologize only if she apologizes."


What. The. Fuck. Seriously.


I don't see what I've done wrong and I don't see a need to even apologize to someone like you who have no respect for others. Alison, San San, Soon Ming (I think that's how their names are spelt) are the girls who help the models with the clothes and changing in the backroom. I know what you call them, Michelle. "Retards"


Why.. Isn't that just plain respectful. You just have to realize all of us are doing this for one reason. Charity. We are not doing this for ourselves. People are giving their time and effort and I think the least you can do is appreciate them and be thankful that people are even willing to help you.


When we've all arrived in Zouk, we all gathered and the surprise, surprise, Michelle you actually apologized. Or try to apologize. I don't know who you're trying to kid but I seriously don't buy that. If you didn't want to apologize, don't do it and don't even try cuz it will just come across as really insincere. And being stressed up is not a reason for you to yell or treat people like how you did. What you should do is: DON'T ORGANIZE ANYTHING AND THUS YOU WILL NOT BE STRESSED UP!


But anyway, I just rolled my eyes and made some funny faces and Yasmin saw that and she laughed. -_- She found it funny. -_- Anyway in the end, we just said, "She's just mental. Ignore her." (:


Then after the full dress rehearsal and all, she went up to Anis and started yelling at him! What the fuck? She was yelling about how the banners are not up. The buntings are not up. Why isn't anyone doing them yet. Shit like that. Then Anis was like, "Why are you yelling? Chill it's only 3 o' clock."


And she continued yelling and talk gibberish. But seriously, the show will only start at 8. Buntings and banners are not hard to put up. This happened after her apologizing that she shouldn't have yelled. Wow.


But anyway, the show was great. The girls did great and we had fun. So now, after all the juicy bitchy parts, I'll show some pictures. I have only pictures of me and Joey cuz I told Jiok Swan to process our pictures first (:


He didn't have the photos of my first and second outfit. My third outfit is a horrible one. I really didn't like it and it's size M. Like, I'm an XXS and I'm wearing a size M????? Gosh.



The dress that I really didn't like at all.





I think Joey's outfit is really sexy (: If I remember correctly these are from Poprina.


After Poprina we had Purpledotz. I think some of their outfits are really nice.



Casual wear from Purpledotz.


I think this outfit is really cute especially the scarf. And I like this picture a lot cuz my legs look so skinny! Haha.


We actually have a second outfit from Purpledotz. But Jiok Swan didn't send me any photos of that so I guess the photos probably didn't turn out very good. ): And oh, guess what, for the second outfit, Michelle forgot to bring the belt for the outfit. May I stress on the word forgot please. Right. I don't see you slapping yourself for forgetting.


After that we had to model some clothes from Sevendays.



Tube top from Sevendays. Wore my own jeans.


Then we were given 30 minutes break and we just breathed and rested for a while before the craziness started again.


This time, we modeled salsa dresses and evening gowns from Nila Palacio.



My fairytale dress. (:


The dress is really pretty, like the one Giselle wore in Enchanted and it's off-shoulder. Very pretty. The only thing is, it's RM1200. :/ So pricey! And I thought I'd get it for my annual dinner if it's cheap.


After that we modeled MooMoo.



My casual wear in my favourite colour.


Thank goodness the market is stocking up on this colour cuz I really like this colour on me. I don't what it does but I think I look good in that colour. (: Then after a casual one, we had to model the more formal one.



My little black dress. (: And ooh can you see those arms? I swear I didn't do anything to tone them. I don't exercise and I only play sports once in a blue moon.



Close up. I like my hair. (: Maybe I should curl it.



Joey stole my dress and dyed it blue!


After MooMoo, some of the girls modeled some bags from Dotiro. I think that's the spelling. The bags are really colourful. Bright and happy. (: As for the other girls, we modeled some outfits from Lucy In The Sky.



My happy, happy outfit with my happy, happy smile.


I like what I wore cuz it's really comfortable and they made my boobs bigger! Haha.


Then the last designer! Tres Chic! I've been to their website several times and I think they really have very, very pretty dresses and clothes. Do visit their website and check out their clothes.



Me in the more casual dress. This dress is cute.



Joey's kimono top which I find really nice.



My more formal dress from Tres Chic. And I like this dress also cuz it enhances my bust area hoho. And the necklace is my own (: Gift from my aunt from Perlinis.


And that was the end. Then that Michelle gave her speech and yadda yadda then we proceeded for group picture and I have to stand next to her ew. *Rolls eyes*


(By the way Michelle if you happen to read this. SORRY I SHOULDN'T HAVE BLOGGED ABOUT YOU LIKE THIS CUZ I'M SO ANGRY.)


I don't really care actually. (: Even if the university students are reading this and commenting how bitchy I am for blogging about this and thus not voting me for Miss Nottingham, I don't really care. I'm being true to myself and I'm happy about it.



Jiok Swan whom I invited for the fashion show.


You might remember him from some photoshoot that he did with me back in January 2007. (: Kinda lazy to look for the link but I think it's one of the first few posts in the January 2007 link.


After the show, I've gotten comments from some friends saying Michelle had all the nice clothes. I thought I was the only one who noticed. But actually some of the models noticed too and the funny thing is even the crowd noticed. Lol.


I thought she's very unprofessional cuz as a organizer, I think it would be right if she didn't join in everything and stop trying to do everything. If you want to take part in the whole modeling thing, then don't organize. I don't know what you all think but that's how my friends and I think.


Other than that, she wore the dress from one of the boutiques to class. Wtf? That is just wrong. Seriously. No comment ok. I really don't know what to say about this girl anymore.


TheBoyfriend didn't attend the fashion show eventhough I have already gotten him the ticket. You're forgiven though since you were busy with your reports and all. And also because you are you. (: He sent me to Zouk early in the morning although he doesn't really wake up early when he's not working and accompanied me for tea in the morning.


Then when the show ended, he came to pick me up and we went to his place cuz I promised that I'll go to his place after the show. When we were on the way back, he looked at me a few times and grinned/smirked. I asked him why, he said he has never seen me with such thick make up before and he's not used to it. -_-


Anyway I was so smelly from the cigarettes and sweat I had to take a shower at his place.



His gangster shirt and my skinny legs again!


The t-shirt he gave me was fitting on him but super loose on me. Haha. He wore it and then stretched it and the shirt looked as if it was ironed haha.



TheBoyfriend and me. (:



Love.


He then brought me out for supper cuz I didn't take my dinner. Then I went home and remove the heavy make up and went to bed immediately. A very good experience and I'm glad we managed to raise some funds for Desa Amal Jireh Charity Home! (:

I bet many of you have been waiting for this day, no? The day where you can prank anyone and that anyone is not supposed to be angry. (: Seems like a good day for the boys right?


Ever since primary school, we've been exposed to this very fateful day where friends will go, "There's something on your skirt!" and as soon as we turned to look at our skirts our friends will go, "Haha April's Fool!"


Then in secondary school, the 'something' on your skirt became blood on your skirt. Well, I was from a co-ed school and the girls are as paranoid as hell about their menstruation cuz it will just mean they're giving the guys a chance to laugh at them. "Eh.... What is that brownish stain on your pinafore?"


Sighs. How the boys enjoyed pulling pranks on the girls. And as the years go by, the tricks became much more creative and different such that you can't even prepare yourself. Gone were those days where you will tell yourself in the mirror that it's April's Fool day and not to turn if should anyone comment that you have something on your skirt.


Moving on to tertiary education, just when you think all these novelty about April's Fool day will die off, think again. A small fraction of the guys are still pretty much into pranking other people. But then I think lately we've been too busy to even remember. Surprisingly, the lecturer reminded us!


I got this in my mailbox from one of my lecturers who cancelled our class today saying:

Dear all,

There will be no Plant Design lecture on coming Tuesday (1 April), as I will be away to KL for a conference. We shall resume our lecture on Wednesday.


p/s: This is not an April Fool joke !

Nice.


And while I was doing some of my work, I thought that the meanest and most evil prank to ever pull on your partner will be telling him/her that you are breaking up with him/her. No! I didn't do this to TheBoyfriend. Anyway I'm guessing that he/she will fall for it cuz he/she will be too shocked and stunned to even remember that it's the 1st of April. Savour the moment of his/her face then say April's Fool! Shit this is evil.


But anyway I hope all of you have had a good April's Fool day. (:

Sife Fashion Show post next! Sorry for the delay I've been busy and I was waiting for the pictures to be sent to me. (:

The day before my annual dinner, someone really special to me came to KL just for my annual dinner. (: Miss Georgia Tan purposely came all the way just to support me for the Miss Notts competition and I'm deeply grateful for that.


There were hiccups here and there when she arrived and I couldn't thank TheBoyfriend enough for helping me pick her up and all. And my apologies to you Sayang for having to wait for TheBoyfriend to finish his never-ending meetings.


Anyhoo I was really, really glad to see you that night. (: I was so excited and all. I hope you like the little spot that I brought you to. Where you can view the whole of KL. The next time you come, I'll bring you elsewhere. A place where they serve steak and it's really breezy up there and the best part is, it's only 15 minutes away from my place!


We went to bed pretty early that night and had to get up early to go to One World Hotel the next day. I had to be there at 12 pm when the dinner only starts at like, 8pm? T_T Tired much.

One side of the hall.


When we arrived we left our things in one of the waiting rooms and we went for brunch. This time we didn't fight for the bill cuz Georgia made me say I won't fight for the bill. -_- What happened the night before was that we were fighting to pay for supper. The poor cashier was so helpless he looked at his colleagues cuz Georgia was like, "NO NO TAKE MY MONEY!" and then I just spoke to the dude in Malay hoho and he took my money instead.


"Ya lar ya lar. Use malay language against me lar now."


Nyahahahaha..


Anyhoo I had to do my things so Georgia roamed around OneU and even went for FACIAL!


There was a little miscommunication which resorted to me and Yenli having to like, rush our shower session. Well, we were demanded to go to the makeup room by 4.30 pm. And by the time we got up to our room it's almost 4 pm and there was someone in the shower already.


When the girl came out we went to check out the bathroom and hah! There were two sides, one shower, one bath! So we were like, "Ok I take this side, you take that side. Don't turn and look ok!"


-_-


Then when we were done we were like, "Eh you done? Ok ok I'm wrapping myself now. You wrapped yourself already? Can turn now? You sure ah.."


It's really quite funny now that I recall how urgent we were. LOL.



This is NOT my table. Was just sitting randomly at a table and snapped a blurry artistic photo.



Before makeover! Hoho!


Just look at all the colours available. So many colours! Me likey!


And and and, my makeup artist is really pretty! You can't tell in this picture cuz Kwo Kuang took a picture when she wasn't ready isk. I had a picture with her but it's in her camera -_-


She speaks only mandarin so sometimes when she tells me something I'll stone for a while and then reply cuz I was translating haha. And it's pretty hard to understand her when she had that mask on.






After the heavy makeup and Kinder Bueno that Georgia got for me cuz I was hungry.



Happy much?



I like this photo! Thanks Kwo Kuang!


Kwo Kuang had his makeup done as well haha damn vain ok. In fact, all the semifinalists had their makeup done. The guys were looking a little fairer than usual haha.



Yenli, me, Kwo Kuang. Nike, Adidas, Nike.


While the makeup artist was doing my hair, MischievousGeorgia was spotted tiptoeing behind me and I spotted those roses and that sheep-goat! Then I was like, "I SAW THAT!"


Actually I should have just pretended like I didn't see but it was so funny I had to let her know haha.



My Sayang (: And this is the only picture-in-toilet that I have. See how special you are? (:


Then we went back to the waiting room and we had to be quarantined. Damn sad.



Yenli and me.



James and me.



Kisses for you? Haha I guess not.



2/3 of the finalists. Weng Phoon, James, me and Yenli.


Haha told you the guys were fairer than usual.



Kwo Kuang hahahahahahahaha! You're damn fair lehhhhh!


When Georgia saw me, she was like, "Omg babe all I can see are your eyes!"


The eye makeup was pretty heavy actually and in the picture above, you can tell that I had fake lashes on. Which was really, really weird.


Tell you what happened.


First, my makeup artist wanted to curl my lashes and as soon as she picked up that curler I was like half shrieking, "Omg I don't want that oneeeeeee!"


She thought I'm not used to people doing it for me so she told me to do it myself then I was like, "I've never used this thing before.." Then she curled for me omg that felt really scary.. Truth be told, each time I do my makeup, I've never used a curler cuz I don't have one. I don't use it cuz I think my lashes are curled naturally so I didn't want to use them.





Then after she curled my lashes for me, she told me she's gonna put fake lashes for me and I soddof asked her do I even need those don't need to be so kua cheong (over the top - I think). Then she told me cuz I'm going on stage so it will open up my eyes and make my eyes more visible.


As if they weren't visible enough already T_T


After putting the fake lashes on, Yenli and I were like, "Omg can see shadow lehhh.." just because we've not used them before. It felt really, really weird but after a while we got used to it and we were like, "Eh no more shadow already haha!"


For your information, my eyelids felt so heavy it's so strange.



Maria - One of the organizers for this Mr&Ms Notts competition.



We're all doing James' favourite pose hehe.


My eyes look bigger than my nose and lips.. No wonder Georgia was saying all she can see are my eyes.



Group shot! Minus Lesego.



This picture is damn funny ok haha I don't know what to say cuz the picture is so, so random.


We have Agha, Weng Phoon, James and Yenli at the back row acting cute. Me acting all happy. Kwo Kuang was so hungry that he wants to eat my fingers, my poor poor fingers. Maria was acting cute. Yi Yang at the front row was frightened by something, I don't want to know what you saw in that room ok. Emmanuel and Joseph being cool.


So random right???



Me, Maria and Lesego. Ahhh and Yenli who intruded the photo.



The finalists and our two 'managers'.. Well, minus Lesego again. She's always missing!


It sucks to be in our dance outfit cuz when the others came, they were dressed in suits and pretty dresses and we're like so casual. So sad. So no before dinner pictures for this year..



Friends! From left to right: Me, Kiwi, Kelvin, Weng Phoon, Yenli, DunnoWho, Kenny.


Everyone looked so good that night!



Kenny who had to squat cuz he's like, super tall! Even taller than TheBoyfriend.


These are the only before dinner pictures I have. So sad. T_T


Anyway, revision's a bitch and I think I'm gonna murder maybe, 2 of my lecturers cuz it's really so painful to study. First one was when I start reading, I kept hearing his voice, which isn't funny at all. It's so annoying cuz he doesn't speak fluent English and his sentences are punctuated at all the wrong places! After trying super hard to understand the notes, I just gave up. It really isn't me to just give up just like this but it was really, really horrible. Trust me on this.


Then I have this module where the notes are super short. Like really super short such that when you read it, you don't even know what the hell you're learning. So I'm reading the book. It's almost like, you might as well not give out notes and ask us to purchase the book and tell us all to bring the book to class or something. -_-


Oh.. I complained to TheBoyfriend about him telling me to take MHw and him taking care of me stuff like that is making me lazy. Then he told me, "Oh oh I know. The prerequisite for MHw is MSc."


-_________________________-


So I asked, "What about BEng or MEng?"


"Can be considered.."


Aduh.. Honestly I don't know what happened to me but I've totally lost the drive to study. Maybe it's because of the courseworks that drained me.. T_T


Anyway.. I hope this post will keep you all entertained for maybe a week or so cuz I really have to study otherwise my first class will fly away.. Wish me luck!

During the annual dinner week, the finalists for the Ms Notts thingamajig thing went for fitting at Bangsar Village II cuz we have someone to sponsor our dress for the catwalk (:


Tried on like maybe two dresses but none fits me. Why am I so small? Sometimes it really sucks being so petite and skinny alright cuz nothing really fits? And sometimes when I see something I really like I can't bloody fit into it it's so sad.


Anyhoo the salesgirl at the shop was pretty helpful she gave me this dress that she said is really really small so I can definitely fit into it and voila I really CAN fit into it! Wheee~~ But you'll have to see my annual dinner post for the picture of the dress. (:


After that we went for lunch at Delicious. Ordered our food and then while waiting, we camwhored! What else????



Quote Soon Seng "Ms Notts by default" hahaha I'm quite thick-skinned thank you.



Posers.



This picture is damn funny haha! She has the other one of me in Facebook. Just too lazy to upload it here as well hehe.



Steffi and Yi Yang!


These two people are the nicest people ever to work with. Compared to *CoughMichelleIpCough* cuz they're both really really nice and very understanding and they don't yell at you. d:


Instead of feeling all stressed up, we all just had fun throughout the whole thing. (:



Group photo of the girls.


Then somehow there was not much photo left to take. Then Yenli whipped out all the pink gadgets gosh I swear I can faint from all the pinkness and she's like sitting right next to me oh my gosh I don't even remember how I left Delicious alive. -_-



Yenli's very uncreative way of arranging her pink gadgets.


Yenli ah Yenli, how are you gonna attract people to buy your stuff like that?



Must arrange like this ok! See how I market your stuff? Hahahahahaha!


Anyhoo the pinkness is really overwhelming. At least your bag is not pink. d:


Then finally our long-awaited food arrived!!



Lasagna. I think three person had this.



Yi Yang's food. Don't remember what is it. I'm not a fan of cheese hence I don't really bother..



My super yummilicious salmon sandwich!!!!!!


T_T Looking at the picture makes me hungry........


Hmmm ok I'll probably go to OneU this Wednesday and look for TheBoyfriend for dinner then we can have this salmon sandwich again hoho. I think studying too much makes me crave for food.


I tell you, every night I crave for different food. Last night I was debating with EdmundChow whether to go to PJ and look for him for supper and then after 30 minutes I decided not to and my stomach was growling like a hungry tigress already. Then that bugger had to rub it in by saying he's gonna get KFC.


T______________________T


Then fineeeeee I was talking to KC. He said he wants to come back to Cheras and then we can go to Oldtown for coffee. Like old fellas you know. "Coffee no sugar please"


Then sip it from those teacups damn old school but cute right? But then that's not what I want.. I told him let's go KFC instead. Then he said he just had McD's Fried Chicken in the morning.. Sighhhhhh.. Then debated for quite sometime about what to eat and then I decided if I waited any longer I'd die of starvation so I went to cook Nissin Cup Noodles instead.


Now my best friends are cup noodles, milo and whatever junk food I can get to keep me awake.


So sad..


Last but not least..



Yenli and Eu Ling's pasta.


They said it's really filling. I can see why. The portion is quite big and cheesey (I assume it's cheesy).. I need not say much, do I?


And I'm blogging at this hour now and I'm hungry again but I just made myself tomyam seafood to eat. Like, loads of veggie and sotong and crabstick.


Anyway my revision plan is going alright I guess. I'm on track so I hope it'll stay that way till the exam comes. I have 6 papers this semester with only one week of study break. I swear those people in the School of ChemEng is trying to kill us.


I'm having headache over what to do as well. I mean should I just do MEng or finish it at BEng. Then continue taking MSc. My parents left me to make the decision. One thing I'm glad is that my parents trust whatever I'm doing they know I know how to think what's best for myself.


Well you see. Having to choose between MEng and MSc is already giving me quite a headache and some people had to tell me to take PhD instead. T_T You think I'm like what? Some freaking genius here? And I don't want to be a lecturer............


Then we have TheBoyfriend who told me, "Don't take MEng or MSc." So I was thinking he'll probably ask me to stop at BEng. Then he continued "Take MHw.. You can come do your internship at my place."


-____________________________________________-


Master in Housewif-ing.


Things that he would come up with.. But really, this is not a time to inject such thoughts into my head cuz you're really spoiling me. I might take my studies for granted cuz you keep telling me you'd take care of me but even though you know I won't take my studies for granted.


Sighs. Decisions decisions.


I don't want to just make rash decisions. I want to evaluate my results and then see if I'm capable of pursuing it further. I don't want to take MSc and then halfway through realize that I can't really do it cuz it's so tough. So now I must make sure I have strong foundations in whatever I'm doing so that it will be easier for me next time.


Sometimes I think I grow up a little too fast. In the sense of making decisions and planning and thinking of things stuff like that. Things that people will not see, I would have seen it. I know many will probably say you still have a long time to go before you need to make your decision but I want to know where I might be going first. At least I have a destination.


My dad was asking me about my internship applications, whether have I gotten any reply or not. Told him no and I need to follow up as soon as my exams are over. I can't possibly do it now. My exams are more important. He told me he has some connections so he can get me a job. But I said no.


Why you ask? Like I said, I think too much.


First thing is, if my dad introduces me to someone he knows, I'm expected to work harder. Not for myself, but for my dad. What would people think of him if I can't do my job properly? I don't know how others think about this but if I were to work, I don't want to work for people that my dad knows cuz his reputation is at stake. Somehow my performance is related to him, no?


Secondly, it will be a lot more stressful for me. Probably I'll try too hard and end up exhausting myself.


Sigh. Decisions decisions.


Maybe yeah. The easiest is to take up MHw and then do my internship at TheBoyfriend's house. d:


Oh MamaSaw gave me a amethyst crystal pendant. It's in the shape of an apple. Apparently apple-shaped crystals are good for relationships. Goodie goodie! Means she likes me! (: And oh, amethyst crystals are good for studies too! Double combo hoho!


Anyway I need to go now I need to go to bed and go to the morning market with my mum tomorrow.

I'm so freaking sick of doing plant design. Firstly, we spent 2 days working on the coursework like, back to back. Then when it's finally done I brought it home to type the report out.


I refuse to hand in handwritten work cuz it's so messy and I'm in a uni already. It's time to be more professional and hand in 'professional' work. I'm not being kiasu (Ok maybe a little) but don't you think it's more impressive seeing a report that is typed out instead of written?


But anyway that's not the point.


When I came back, my friend (From another group doing the same title as me) said someone calculated one of the Cp (Specific heat capacity/heat capacity) wrongly! Which actually affects everything. T_T


I had to do all the area calculations again to get the cost of my heat exchanger network. Fuck.


Then when it's all finally done, I wanted to type out the report using Excel and Words (DUH). Then I used Excel to key in the values so that I can generate my graphs and do my heat interval and enthalpy balance shit like that. Then while typing everything, I realized.. THERE ARE MISTAKES IN THE CALCULATIONS!!! T__________________________T


Which means.. I HAD TO DO THE AREA CALCULATIONS AGAIN AGAIN!!!!!


And also recalculate the cost of everything.


Fuck fuck fuck.


T____________________________________________________________T


I really wished I would just die on the spot. Now it's like 4 plus am and I just completed everything and sent it to Eveleen to be printed since she's staying in Semenyih so she can go submit it on Monday.


I'm so sick of doing the same thing for God-knows-how-many-times.


Because of this plant design coursework, I've cursed so much, more in 2 days than ever in my life. See what some stupid heat exchanger network can do to you? Especially when the lecturer keeps changing the information of the project.


And now what I can do is pray to God that there will be nothing wrong with the coursework anymore cuz if I have to do it again I might just die on the spot.


Exam starts on the 30th and I've yet to really study. I'm so doomed. T_T

To the most wonderful woman I've ever known in the entire universe who bore me for 9 months and took great care of me till now and loved me unconditionally..


HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUMMY!


You probably won't read this but I just want to let everyone know you're the greatest mum! (: I love you and I hope you'll stay young (at heart) and beautiful forever. (:


*****


Happy 21st Brian Shim! Thanks for being such a great friend since the day I knew you. I wish you'll have a blessed birthday. (:


*****


Happy 24th Yung Han! Our history is like, long long way back and it's really surprising to see you in Notts doing your degree. This goes to prove the world is small eh? (:


Anyhoo happy birthday and have a good one!


*****


Yes, three birthdays on the same day. Anyhoo my phone finally died on me after serving me for about 3 years. Blardy LCD. A bit sayang but it's alright.


I'm gonna blog about my Annual Dinner soon. I have so much to do you'll have to wait. And oh by the way, I didn't win Miss Notts. Sorta expected that (: But it's alright I had loads of fun working with the people involved in the thing.


Alright gotta go! Plant design!

My university organized a charity event - Fresh Labels: A SIFE Fashion Show 2008 on the 21st of March in Zouk KL. But before I go to the day of the event, let's get down to the dirty, juicy gossips and bitchings about the preparations before the day itself.


So we all only started practising less than a week before the event. The clothes were not sorted out and stuff like that. So the whole thing was pretty badly organized. Well, that's what I think. And you know how busy I was this year. So much work and I had other commitments as well. Although I do have other things that I need to do, I still took time and went for practices cuz well, I'm not a catwalk model, just a model for photography.


Then on the day before the event, 20th of March, we had a final rehearsal. It was supposed to be a full dress rehearsal. Practice was initially scheduled at 6 pm and then about 5 minutes to 6, we got a text message saying that practice is delayed to 6.30 pm. How nice. So fineeeee, waited for another half an hour. Then Yasmin, Joey and I decided to help out and took the racks to the room so that we will not waste time.


So at 6.30 pm, the others came and then we found out the reason for the delay in practice. Some of the models were stuck in the train as they were on the way back from somewhere.


Then we proceeded with the rehearsal without the few girls. Anyway it wasn't really a rehearsal cuz what we did was just wear the clothes and then line up. -_- So when the whole thing was over and done with, I had to leave cuz I've already had arrangements with friends and my parents who are supposed to pick me up from Semenyih. So I told Anis I had to leave and he said alright and so I left. 5 minutes later Aaron called me and asked where am I and asked me to return back to the dance room. Told him I was leaving uni already and heard Michelle in the background saying it's only for 5 minutes. So ok I'll just give her another 5 minutes.


When I re-entered the dance room, the first thing that greeted me was her super fucked up face and her yelling at me saying, "Can you just not leave like that?"


I think she said something along the line of it being rude I don't remember that part anymore. Then I told her I've told Anis that I'm leaving and he said ok. At that point, I think I ought to be applauded for controlling myself from yelling at her cuz I admit I do not have the best temper but I try my best not to simply yell at people.


She continued yelling/shouting, "Next time tell me! Don't go to anyone else! I'm the person in charge here! So if there's anything, whether you want to go to the toilet or whatever, come to me! Do you understand????? Cuz I might have something important to tell you all."


So I replied with a pretty sarcastic "Ohhh kaaayyyy!"


Then she continued being really unreasonable. "You people are pissing me off! I've been trying to arrange practices and everytime there's someone who can't make it! You're giving me excuses like you have your Miss Nottingham practice! You're stuck in the train or bus! Or your relative's in an accident!"


"Do you know that last year for our fashion show, we had to skip classes and go to Zouk itself to practice?!"


Then she made some really fucked up faces and I really felt like throwing the table at her at that point but whatever.


She then told us, "For tomorrow, bring whatever accessories and shoes that you think might match the clothes. Please remember to bring them and I don't want to hear any excuses that you've forgotten to bring them or you left them at home ok! That's all."


Seriously? That's all. And her tone of that "That's all" was really so bitchy I really tried super hard to zip my mouth and prevent myself from saying, "Are you sure that's all. So can I leave now?"


I was so pissed I stormed out of the room and I slammed the door. I think I've never been to pissed at someone before. I really, really felt like slapping her for being so rude. To be fair, I wasn't the only one who left. Another girl left too but she let it out on me super what the fuck kind of stuff.


Firstly, I NEVER said a thing about her delaying the practice by half an hour at the very last minute. And about my Miss Nottingham thing? For fuck's sake, I only went for a while for the dance and then I had to rush to YOUR freaking model practice and most of the time I miss my dinner time and I end up with a very bad gastric. And do you even care about that? I guess not. All you care about is yourself.


Then when people try to talk to you about your attitude, you just didn't want to take advice from other people and then said, "Her parents should have just waited another 5 minutes!" and then slammed the car door.


Like seriously. Who the fuck are you that my parents must accommodate your freaking time? If you do not respect other people's time so why should we? You've delayed the thing for half an hour, other people have made arrangements and you should understand that and not be so selfish. My world doesn't revolve around the fashion show.


Secondly, when you made that statement about you having to go to Zouk for practice and skip classes, I really wanted to say "Good for you." I'm not trying to belittle or degrade business students but I do believe that engineering students have a lot more to do than business students. And for us, skipping ONE class means skipping A WHOLE LOT of things. Let's put you in Plant Design class and have you skip one class. We'll see how you'll survive. But seriously, good for you that you are so committed to the fashion show. As for me, sorry I really wouldn't sacrifice my studies.


The next day, in the bus, when Yasmin was trying to reason things out with you, you just had to say, "I'll apologize only if she apologizes."


What. The. Fuck. Seriously.


I don't see what I've done wrong and I don't see a need to even apologize to someone like you who have no respect for others. Alison, San San, Soon Ming (I think that's how their names are spelt) are the girls who help the models with the clothes and changing in the backroom. I know what you call them, Michelle. "Retards"


Why.. Isn't that just plain respectful. You just have to realize all of us are doing this for one reason. Charity. We are not doing this for ourselves. People are giving their time and effort and I think the least you can do is appreciate them and be thankful that people are even willing to help you.


When we've all arrived in Zouk, we all gathered and the surprise, surprise, Michelle you actually apologized. Or try to apologize. I don't know who you're trying to kid but I seriously don't buy that. If you didn't want to apologize, don't do it and don't even try cuz it will just come across as really insincere. And being stressed up is not a reason for you to yell or treat people like how you did. What you should do is: DON'T ORGANIZE ANYTHING AND THUS YOU WILL NOT BE STRESSED UP!


But anyway, I just rolled my eyes and made some funny faces and Yasmin saw that and she laughed. -_- She found it funny. -_- Anyway in the end, we just said, "She's just mental. Ignore her." (:


Then after the full dress rehearsal and all, she went up to Anis and started yelling at him! What the fuck? She was yelling about how the banners are not up. The buntings are not up. Why isn't anyone doing them yet. Shit like that. Then Anis was like, "Why are you yelling? Chill it's only 3 o' clock."


And she continued yelling and talk gibberish. But seriously, the show will only start at 8. Buntings and banners are not hard to put up. This happened after her apologizing that she shouldn't have yelled. Wow.


But anyway, the show was great. The girls did great and we had fun. So now, after all the juicy bitchy parts, I'll show some pictures. I have only pictures of me and Joey cuz I told Jiok Swan to process our pictures first (:


He didn't have the photos of my first and second outfit. My third outfit is a horrible one. I really didn't like it and it's size M. Like, I'm an XXS and I'm wearing a size M????? Gosh.



The dress that I really didn't like at all.





I think Joey's outfit is really sexy (: If I remember correctly these are from Poprina.


After Poprina we had Purpledotz. I think some of their outfits are really nice.



Casual wear from Purpledotz.


I think this outfit is really cute especially the scarf. And I like this picture a lot cuz my legs look so skinny! Haha.


We actually have a second outfit from Purpledotz. But Jiok Swan didn't send me any photos of that so I guess the photos probably didn't turn out very good. ): And oh, guess what, for the second outfit, Michelle forgot to bring the belt for the outfit. May I stress on the word forgot please. Right. I don't see you slapping yourself for forgetting.


After that we had to model some clothes from Sevendays.



Tube top from Sevendays. Wore my own jeans.


Then we were given 30 minutes break and we just breathed and rested for a while before the craziness started again.


This time, we modeled salsa dresses and evening gowns from Nila Palacio.



My fairytale dress. (:


The dress is really pretty, like the one Giselle wore in Enchanted and it's off-shoulder. Very pretty. The only thing is, it's RM1200. :/ So pricey! And I thought I'd get it for my annual dinner if it's cheap.


After that we modeled MooMoo.



My casual wear in my favourite colour.


Thank goodness the market is stocking up on this colour cuz I really like this colour on me. I don't what it does but I think I look good in that colour. (: Then after a casual one, we had to model the more formal one.



My little black dress. (: And ooh can you see those arms? I swear I didn't do anything to tone them. I don't exercise and I only play sports once in a blue moon.



Close up. I like my hair. (: Maybe I should curl it.



Joey stole my dress and dyed it blue!


After MooMoo, some of the girls modeled some bags from Dotiro. I think that's the spelling. The bags are really colourful. Bright and happy. (: As for the other girls, we modeled some outfits from Lucy In The Sky.



My happy, happy outfit with my happy, happy smile.


I like what I wore cuz it's really comfortable and they made my boobs bigger! Haha.


Then the last designer! Tres Chic! I've been to their website several times and I think they really have very, very pretty dresses and clothes. Do visit their website and check out their clothes.



Me in the more casual dress. This dress is cute.



Joey's kimono top which I find really nice.



My more formal dress from Tres Chic. And I like this dress also cuz it enhances my bust area hoho. And the necklace is my own (: Gift from my aunt from Perlinis.


And that was the end. Then that Michelle gave her speech and yadda yadda then we proceeded for group picture and I have to stand next to her ew. *Rolls eyes*


(By the way Michelle if you happen to read this. SORRY I SHOULDN'T HAVE BLOGGED ABOUT YOU LIKE THIS CUZ I'M SO ANGRY.)


I don't really care actually. (: Even if the university students are reading this and commenting how bitchy I am for blogging about this and thus not voting me for Miss Nottingham, I don't really care. I'm being true to myself and I'm happy about it.



Jiok Swan whom I invited for the fashion show.


You might remember him from some photoshoot that he did with me back in January 2007. (: Kinda lazy to look for the link but I think it's one of the first few posts in the January 2007 link.


After the show, I've gotten comments from some friends saying Michelle had all the nice clothes. I thought I was the only one who noticed. But actually some of the models noticed too and the funny thing is even the crowd noticed. Lol.


I thought she's very unprofessional cuz as a organizer, I think it would be right if she didn't join in everything and stop trying to do everything. If you want to take part in the whole modeling thing, then don't organize. I don't know what you all think but that's how my friends and I think.


Other than that, she wore the dress from one of the boutiques to class. Wtf? That is just wrong. Seriously. No comment ok. I really don't know what to say about this girl anymore.


TheBoyfriend didn't attend the fashion show eventhough I have already gotten him the ticket. You're forgiven though since you were busy with your reports and all. And also because you are you. (: He sent me to Zouk early in the morning although he doesn't really wake up early when he's not working and accompanied me for tea in the morning.


Then when the show ended, he came to pick me up and we went to his place cuz I promised that I'll go to his place after the show. When we were on the way back, he looked at me a few times and grinned/smirked. I asked him why, he said he has never seen me with such thick make up before and he's not used to it. -_-


Anyway I was so smelly from the cigarettes and sweat I had to take a shower at his place.



His gangster shirt and my skinny legs again!


The t-shirt he gave me was fitting on him but super loose on me. Haha. He wore it and then stretched it and the shirt looked as if it was ironed haha.



TheBoyfriend and me. (:



Love.


He then brought me out for supper cuz I didn't take my dinner. Then I went home and remove the heavy make up and went to bed immediately. A very good experience and I'm glad we managed to raise some funds for Desa Amal Jireh Charity Home! (:

I bet many of you have been waiting for this day, no? The day where you can prank anyone and that anyone is not supposed to be angry. (: Seems like a good day for the boys right?


Ever since primary school, we've been exposed to this very fateful day where friends will go, "There's something on your skirt!" and as soon as we turned to look at our skirts our friends will go, "Haha April's Fool!"


Then in secondary school, the 'something' on your skirt became blood on your skirt. Well, I was from a co-ed school and the girls are as paranoid as hell about their menstruation cuz it will just mean they're giving the guys a chance to laugh at them. "Eh.... What is that brownish stain on your pinafore?"


Sighs. How the boys enjoyed pulling pranks on the girls. And as the years go by, the tricks became much more creative and different such that you can't even prepare yourself. Gone were those days where you will tell yourself in the mirror that it's April's Fool day and not to turn if should anyone comment that you have something on your skirt.


Moving on to tertiary education, just when you think all these novelty about April's Fool day will die off, think again. A small fraction of the guys are still pretty much into pranking other people. But then I think lately we've been too busy to even remember. Surprisingly, the lecturer reminded us!


I got this in my mailbox from one of my lecturers who cancelled our class today saying:

Dear all,

There will be no Plant Design lecture on coming Tuesday (1 April), as I will be away to KL for a conference. We shall resume our lecture on Wednesday.


p/s: This is not an April Fool joke !

Nice.


And while I was doing some of my work, I thought that the meanest and most evil prank to ever pull on your partner will be telling him/her that you are breaking up with him/her. No! I didn't do this to TheBoyfriend. Anyway I'm guessing that he/she will fall for it cuz he/she will be too shocked and stunned to even remember that it's the 1st of April. Savour the moment of his/her face then say April's Fool! Shit this is evil.


But anyway I hope all of you have had a good April's Fool day. (:
