Today was the Hair Show. I woke up at 6 am. Reached Winsland House by 8 am. The other models reached at about the same time as me. I did my make up first. Erm.. As u can see from the photos.. I wasn't very satisfied. I really have one conclusion. I don't suit Pinkish make up.. YuCks.. my my damn already small eyes even smaller.. Haha.. it's the first time i tried false eyelashes.. Looks natural? kekz.. Suddenly ve e cravin.. or rather go extend my eyelashes.. maybe I go try after exams.. =) Getting more hiaoz. .. I am like dat.. Jus don get me started.. n i go all e way manz..

The theme was dolls n danty.. I don't know wat is it.. but more towards "man" side lah.. As u can see.. I'm e doll. Haha.. Realise that.. I really don't look pretty. Though I used to think I am pretty. Now, not really pretty. hah.. nvm. hah.. Still young.. so still got plenty time to change .. hah.. from ugly duckling to pretty pheonix.. hah.. =)

Still.. I don't get to try the "smokey-eye" look. =( Nvm.. I try to draw one .. one day. some day.

I like my red hair. Getting used to it.. though the color fade each day..

I realised I am badly "hurt" this week. Hurt my pocket cos i spent too much! My hair badly damaged .. getting drier n drier each day though i apply "generous" amt of leave-in conditioner n whatever.. on it..

AFter my wakeboardin on sat, my body is aching like mad. Though I was warned before hand by them, that I will "ouch.. ouch here n there.. " which I am experiencing down. It doesn't help when I'm bady burnt as well.. hah. The only fortunate thing was that I did protect my face this time around. so, my face all right. My hands, my back.. is super super achin n painful.. =( Don't feel like wearing my bra lo.. haiz.. This is e second time i burn till I don't feel like wearing bra or carry my bag.. The last time i did was when i try to learn windsurfing..

Okie. To give a detailed report on my wakeboarding session. I'm glad the people who came.. 10 of us.. came from all walks of life.. I got to befriend this "tai-tai".. who is 45 now la.. she used to be a teacher at ACS.. Wah.. 45 le.. still so daring ah.. I aspire to be like her leh.. hah.. not young but still havoc.. n young at heart. =)

Anyway... I am proud to say that I managed to stand on e wakeboard for more than 15 sec.. This involved 3 steps.. First, squat. Second stand. Third, twist ur board.. It is difficult to do from first to second. And needless to say.. second to third lo.. hah.. But, I managed to do it la..

Not i hao lian la.. I think I got advantage also. I have low CG (shortie) n I got experience b4 (windsurfing which was much tougher i think). We first try the Bar which was fixed on e boat. On my first set, I was trying to squat then, stand.. okie la.. though not very stable. I used all my strength lo.. Then, when i fall n had to do again. I feel like i got no strength at all lo.. seriously.. no energy left esp my arms. But, i had to try again la. In the end, i give up while i was tryin to squat to stand.

Everyone rotate around 2 boats. I was the second last one.

On my second set, i was already using the handle n not the bar.. luckily for me.. cos i really think.. the Bar really 'eats" up all ur strength as u ve the tendency to make use of the bar to get up. But, the trick is.. u shouldn't. u should rely on ur thigh muscle to stand up on ur own (overcoming the waves/ water). I managed to stand up.. but not very long. N my posture not very right also.. hah.. My instructor was like.. "not nice.. showing me my posture on the boat". I couldn't really hear what he was saying as he (on e boat) was some distance away and I was holding the rope behind.

On my last set, I was not very nervous. But, i was like.. shitz.. what if i can't get up. but then, once i get down. I just remember what I was suppose to do lo.. don think too much le.. hah.. My instructor was like " u expert liao. no need to say too much .. u just listen to whistle k.. " hah..

So, i heard the whistle or rather i saw his hand signals.. I managed to stand up.. woah.. e feeling is so shiok~ the trick is also.. when u feel like falling.. u just squat down.. I fell later la. Then, when i try do do my last one on my last set, he taught me some pattern la.. I think. Though I do not quite understood. hah..

I tried to do by lookin at him .. cos I really don't know what's my posture like. Until I see him signal a "good" sign then I know I'm okie. He funny lo.. ask me to sign a V sign.. while I was holding the rope. I did la.. ha.. It was fun.. =P

As the boat was approaching the "board" - jetty kind. He asked me not to fall.. i was like.. okok .. try to balance myself.. then, before I hit the board.. i let go.. n i can really feel myself ridin on e wave.. Wah.. shiok ah!

I think.. I really like windsurfing. I will definitely go back again. Maybe with lee foon or fiona.. hah.. =)

Anyone interested? go together. It is really hell lotsa of fun.. N i managed to see lot of shuai ge.. hah.. ~ I like my instructor ..he look like one of the Hk actor.. hah.. =)

Also, I wouldn't be able to do it without their patient guidance n encouragement. When I came on board, one of the guy whom I really think is cute .. said " U're good". heez.. I happy till can fly le.. =)

Though I am suffering now.. aching now. sunburnt. I suppose it's worth it.

This coming week. I sign up for another thing. Hmm.. should I go? hah.. ~

I cant believe it when i see myself on mirror. As u can see.. super red right.. Unless u bleach it 2 times.. u won get e same effect as me! U can see how much damage they ve done! well well.. I must say ... At least I try it .. try it when I'm still young. When I'm old, and i do such thing.. people will say lao auntie.. still act so havoc!

Funny thing is .. When i entered the salon, there is this hairdresser.. ask me two times.. " U got dye ur hair black ah?".. I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Hmm.. hey c'mon .. i thought Asian hair are black? Isn't it? Well... this isn't the first time, people ask whether I dye my hair black? c'mon. If I got the money.. I rather buy or do something else leh.. dye black? U think I rich meh? kekz..

Anyway.. I know I have to endure "stares" for this coming one week. It is too loud. I mean the color.

Was staggering back home.. wif a almost empty stomach ( I had breakfast one.. but reached the place at 11 am sharp .. went home at about 4 pm) Jack (my stylist) was nice. Gave me a cup of hot milo.. n 4 sugar-coated biscuits (aka soda biscuit). I ate two n drank half cup of milo.

Argh~ U know what. I kena period today. Just as i was thinking about it today.. and I GOT IT! I was caught by surprise but I was already at Wisma. I was losing my bloody blood.. n it was exactly the same color on my head! Uh~ U can imagine e lOOK on my face when I was in e loo.. hah.

Anyway. I decide to shop again. Since I was already at Wisma.. i went into Topshop.. n guess wat! I spENT again~ bought a pair of jeans.. I bought it because it really fit me very well.. n since it is pricely.. but less than Levi.. I shall grab it.. =P

Spent alot.. then again. I will earn it back. No more shopping for me!

Yeah.. when i tot it was all over.. I got it. WakeboaRding this sAt~

My black Silky Hair
9:08 PM
hah. I am really reluctant to cut my hair. I never have such feelings before. I like cutting my hair actually. Having new look. Change is e spice of life, i always say. Now, after growing painfully for one year, I am really reluctant. Tml maybe e last time I'm gonna tie up my hair. As many may argue, u can always grow ur hair wat.. All these while, I endure.. rebonded n do watever to stop myself from "snipping" it off..

These two day, whenever i look at the mirror, I will be looking at my hair, admiring myself.. my hair.. so healthy looking - very very value-added.. hah.. straight.. yes.. ahem~ Can't imagine what they gonna do to my hair.. ! I have no say in my hairstyle.. Do u know what i am going thru?!! hah.. Excited, yet apprehensive. Yesterday, went to swim. Before i left the swim pool, i was tellin myself.. I'm not gonna swim for some time.. haiz.. so sad~ I like swimming. I never get sick of swimming. Just getting less confidence in my "bikini look" esp when all e fats are gathering around ur tummy! ahem~

O.. I don't know what happen today. But, i just went on a shoppin spree n spent 160bucks just like dat! I bought a suite (dark brown jacket n skirt) = $114 (with alteration) Then, feeling that there is something pushing me to shop some more.. I went to Dano to take a look. I did not buy anything. Then, i saw this big SALE sign in Match shop. I went inside. To my Horror.. I saw jacket selling at $28!! Hmm.. However, these jackets has no matching skirts to go along.. But, i decide that I am so into jacket nowadays.. I shall get myself one for 33 bucks. I also bought a shirt for $18! cheap? luckily I did not buy any top in Bega which cost like 40++ (I can buy like 2 tops from Match lo.. ) Anyone want to buy office wear.. can try Match. They got SALE!

Aiya! anyway, like any other purchase, I do kick, punch myself for buying so much (Not going to use soon, but definitely will use it.. sometimes in e future). I am short of a pair of Court shoes!

Buy now? or later? hmm.........

11:17 PM
Kk sms me this morning telling me that we made a profit of 200 plus. woah.. Not bad. At least our effort not wasted. 4 days of rushing, standing, kneading e dough, mixing n creaming the butter, cleaning up e sugary stuffs in my kitchen, mopping n sweeping umpteen times (despite my mother's nagging). Everything is worthwhile. It was a nice experience.

I realise that when u put in effort to do something, you really get e satisfaction out from it. I have done many projects with my CCA, Farrago, Hi Singapore, COR, YEP, this n that.. N really, I think I never put in 100% of my effort before as I always play e least important role. I try not to involve too much. I am not e leader kind of person .. so, if anything. I always assume that e others will do it. I just do my small part, will do. But in this particular Carnival. I must say I put in quite an amount of effort. N e results n satisfaction I got was really many folds. Finally I can heave a sigh of relief. One project down.

In life, there are many small n big projects (academics or other things). For me, I am really passive. Getting passive n more passive each day. People around me are smart people. They can easily do without me. So, I must say.. I am "mould" to be a free-rider leh.. So, sometimes out of too paiseh, I will insist on having some initiation to do something if not.. I can simply just shake my legs n things will get done lo.. hmph~

I realise I haven learn much. When people are helping me.. which i really appreciate it.. In times when I really need it, when I couldn't find e strength to do anything.. There will always be kind samaritans/ angels around me.. Thank you so much. =)

Anyway, my point is that. I will have to put in more effort next time or in any projects that I will be involved in.
