With Family@ Bukit Tinggi

Just got back from Bukit Tinggi. Am POOPED! (And I still haven't done my essay- Not because I'm lazy, but because I've come to the conclusion that the topic is stupid and it hurts my brain to think about it. Woohoo. Long bracket!)

We were there to celebrate my mom's forty-tenth birthday. Just a one night stay at the french village. It was quite boring actually, the french village really is only this one street you have to keep walking up and down over and over again. But the weather was nice and cold and it wasn't too crowded.

Day One

Ethan and Esther





Cousin trying to take Sex and the City shots of me.

Luckily my cousin was there; On my mothers side there is a lack of cousins my age, the only company I had was her and she's only 13, but probably has more maturity and responsibility in her pinky finger than I have in my whole body. (Which coincidentally, has about the same mass as her pinky finger. Lol!)

Day Two

Ann Fleuryn and Esther in mini-kimonos! Cute sial. Tourists kept taking photos of them.

We went to the Japanese Tea Garden and rented out kimono's to camwhore in. I don't think the lady half appreciated my enthusiasm- After getting tied into mine, I hitched the kimono up to my knees, exited the teeny hut and went "Konichiwaaa bittchess!" *Cue tourists laughing and aforementioned ladies shaking their heads at each other*

Hahahaa. I have no idea why I look so gu niang in photos.



Oh yes. And this is me and the aforementioned cousin with the maturity and respondsibility in her pinky fingers.



Me, Jing, Esther and Ann Fleuryn



Super teeny japanese hut. Don't know whether its built on miniature scale or whether I am just not fit to be Japanese.





Argh. So frickin' cute. It was like a press conference behind her with all the cameras out and flashing.

His name is Simon and he's such a sweetheart! He kept nuzzling into me. I was half terrified cause his teeth were GIGANTIC!



- I thought being nominated was a big deal until I realized just about everyone else was nominated too. =/ Still. Thank you Samantha Chow! Lol. Next time wanna tumpang my car I'll rush over to fetch you! X)

PS: Aite. Back to real life. My essay- Failure is proof that the desire wasn't strong enough.

With toes like fingers...

For once feet are actually happy after walking a whole day in a mall. Because I went for a pedicure; I've never had a pedicure because I'm super ticklish and I feel weird about people touching my feet. I'm afraid I'll laugh like mad while they're doing my pedicure and look like a maniac.

Me and Sabby getting pedicures~

I was also supposed to buy a pedicure voucher for my mom but I'm putting that off till tomorrow- Bad daughter. Grrrrr. I love shopping with Sabrina, she's so intelligent and opinionated, feeds my ego loads too. She kept saying guys are staring at me when guys were doing double takes at her. I think guys stare at us for different reasons, she's curvaceous and pretty, I'm... tall... Hahahhaaa.

Mine's the pink, Sabby has the purple. I like hers better.

Happy Birthday Kevin!

A few nights ago, we kidnapped Kevin for his birthday. Yes. We are good friends and it was such great fun! I was so excited I kept giggling the whole way. Everyone gathered at Steven's house at 10pm- which was really just down the road from Kevin's. At 11:30pm, me, Casey and Alvin went and picked him up, he was blindfolded from the time he stepped out of the house and shoved into the car. He kept ruining everything by saying "I can't breath, I can't breath!" and trying to push the blindfold up. We drove him like two times around the block, one time around the field.

Alvin looks so happy here. Hahahaa.



Oooh~ Quelle surprise~

We crossed a few bumps when he suddenly said "Hey, this feels familiar. I KNOW WHERE WE ARE! We're NOT on the highway you liars!" Potong sial right? Ungrateful. Act surprised lah! We parked in front of Steven's hosue- again just a few houses from Kevin's, and shoved him out. "Hey wth? We're going back to my house?" Hoho. So funny. I think I'm going to kidnap everyone for their birthday's this year. Surprise parties are really the only way to go!

Sabrina and Tik Tsin during the model search thingie. I can't upload the photo's Facebook won't let me! Sorry girls. Wait ya?

"Cause if someday you wake up to find that you're missing me,
And your heart starts to wonder where on earth could I be?
Thinking maybe you'll come back to the place that we met,
And you see me waiting for you on the corner of the strret."
-The Script, you just gotta love The Script

PS: I now want a manicure too. =/

PPS: Poo. Tres grande poo! I haven't done my essay for english and I've to go to Bukit Tinggi tomorrow with my parents!

Malaysian Supermodel Search

I somehow have managed to get myself into the top 29 during the top 100 elimination.
I'm still amazed I got into the top 100 anyway; I wasn't really sure I wanted to get in at first, a modeling reality show? Really? But then look at the opportunities, FHM Magazine, Ford Model of the Year, 50k Cash; why was I hesitating? Wasn't I the one always saying life is too short?

Catwalk.

There were so many pretty girls, already established models, the winner of Malaysian Dream Girl too. Amber Chia, May Wan, Ariana Teoh and the editor of FHM made up the judges, Choy Wan was the host. Amber Chia is stunning, I don't know, people always say she's ugly but she's GORGEOUS. She's just got that presence you know? Absolutely fabulous, skinny, with those thick lips. Kesian her, worked so hard to be a top model and kena kutuk like mad.

Alright. Its almost 2am and my feet are screaming, I'd probably wake up tomorrow to find that they've shriveled up and died away. Thanks to those who voted, Omer and Mark. Hahahaa. Those who came to support me even though they ran off to Zara halfway- Sabrina and Tik Tsin. Those who came to support their friends then went, "Eh, Sheena you joined too?"- Darren. And of course, mom and dad, mwa mwa~

Me and Juanita backstage.

Me: Are you the winner of Malaysian Dream Girl?
Juanita: Yes, and you are?
Me: Oh, I'm nobody...
Juanita: No, I meant your name!
Foot in mouth syndrome guys, there is no known cure. =/

PS: Right now I'm wondering. If I do get chosen, what happens to college?

Science Of Sex Appeal

I'm a celebrity! Get me out of here!

Hahahaaa. Daudi is sooo cute, I reinforced his lodgings now so he can't escape completely, his life as a free roaming hamster is over! But this just made him madder of course, he screams more, refuses to let me touch him and is constantly chewing on the bars of his cage.

Ethan playing school with Angel.

I watched this super interesting documentary on the science of sex appeal last night.

I couldn't sleep. Don't judge me, I stopped watching TV anyway. All I ever watch on the TV nowadays is the science and learning channels. I find that more interesting than Gossip Girl- who is running out of plots, everyone has slept with everyone, whats new? *Yawn* My favorites are shows like Monster Quest, Myth Busters, How Did They Do It?, Everything You Need To Know About...

I like to see how things are made, like paint and crayons, lipsticks, guitars. America's consumer industry is so big, there's a product for every single thing! Everytime I'm in the car churning out fun facts to my parents, they'd go "Stupid stuff like this you remember lah! Our politics and history cannot remember at all!"

Hey! No fair okay? This is general knowledge. Plus, they make for great conversation starters. "Did you know, corn is explosive?" *waggles eyebrows*

I'm loving the new Herbal Essences "Long Term Relationship" conditioner, never underestimate the power of free samples!

Omg. Lol. I ranted about one thing and totally went off topic. Alright, the science of sex appeal; What makes us sexy? Why is the standard of beauty the same everywhere? (Just watch Miss Universe, they all look the same, like barbie dolls.) Apparently beauty is NOT in the eye of the beholder, people all over the world respond to the same things.

In girls, the greater waist to hip ratio, the way they walk, larger breasts for fertility. In men, height, bulk, their swagger, wide shoulders. Humans in general, healthy skin and facial symmetry, this is where the golden ratio applies.

The golden ratio is this mathematical way of calculating beauty, like the distance between your eyes should be the same as the length of your eyes, the waist must be 7/10 the width of the hips, the height should be at least nine times the length of your face. They use this to get a ranking of 1-10. 4-5 is normal, anything above 7 is considered attractive. Angelina Jolie and Halle Berry are only sevens; while no one has gotten a 10 yet, Brad Pitt is a 9.3.

Backseat of my car. Can you believe I'm still reading Sophie's World? I'm going through this REALLY slowly.

One thing they said that really didn't make sense was that a womans face subtly changes over the course of her menstrual cycle. During the peak, meaning the actually menstruation period, she is at her most attractive with shinier skin, brighter eyes and brighter skin. Bullshit, always get pimples during period, end up looking like I do now, with a pimple on either side of my cheeks. Freakishly attractive.

Our voices are another thing that changes with our menstrual cycle, apparently it changes little by little and we sound sexiest when our voices are high pitched. Now you know why lala girls speak in their annoying high pitched voice, anyone get turned on by them? For men, the deeper the voice, the more sex appeal.

Pfft. Now go and measure your level of sexiness. I've an essay to write for english.

My brother has the creepiest smile... =/

"L'amour, hum hum, pas pour moi,
Tous ces "toujours",
C'est pas net, ça joue des tours,
Ca s'approche sans se montrer,
Comme un traître de velours,
Ca me blesse ou me lasse selon les jours."
-Carla Bruni

PS: I got into the Ford Model Search thing. Elliminations are tomorrow at the Bangsar Shopping Village, thanks for voting. Hahaha. my last minute voters~

But I can try, I can try to toughen up.

It took me all but 24 hours to slip back into my holiday biological clock- That is, staying awake till dawn and sleeping all day.

It makes me cranky when I wake up late, I am a morning person really. I keep thinking its time to exercise, I'm skinny yes but super unhealthy, the closest thing I come to exercise is walking up and down the stairs when I forget stuff. Plus my diet is positively diabetic, doughnuts, chips and candy. I eat very unbalanced meals and will probably die of heart attack by 25.

Us hanging around in front of the Media Hub.

Taylors School of Communications is closed for the next week because someone in the March Intake has caught the swine flu, a lecturer too apparently. Its getting a bit scary, not enough to keep me from hanging out with friends though.

Went out for Bak Kut Teh with Marky Mark, Phillers, Wei Wen and Junelle. Half the class didn't show up, (I mean you supposively lesbian partner Caryn). We went to this place that served awesome braised pork leg but the Bak Kut Teh wasn't that nice. I couldn't eat much anyway, I just got my braces tightened and I told him to do it extra tight to close the gaps between my teeth.

Pork belly soup, Bak Kut Teh, Braised Pork Leg, and the guys are supposed to be "dieting".

It takes me ages to chew food and I can't use my front teeth at all. Try eating without using your front teeth, you'll see what I mean. But now that I'm alone and hungry I'm regretting all that untouched Bak Kut Teh I left behind.

After that we met up with Omer at Pyramid and went for a movie, Dance Flick. Really really really sucked, I don't find spoof movies funny at all. Tacky jokes for cheap laughs, dirty scenes just so people would give half an ass, the whole thing was plain distasteful and there was this chick in the back row screaming with laughter. I was sleeping by the second half of the movie, partially also because I didn't sleep the night before.

I was in the car for almost two hours, jammed all the way home. I hate traffic jams...

So I returned his guitar and got me my own... =/

I’m all outta luck but what else could I be?
I know he’s yours and he'll never belong to me again.
I did him wrong.
So don’t brag,
Keep it to yourself.
I did him wrong.
I was never no, never no, never enough,
But I can try, I can try to toughen up.
I listened when they told me
If he burns you, let him go.
Change is hard, I should know...

PS: Dickson said it was surreal when I talk to him about relationships. I keep a tough barrier between that and everything else. Its a vulnerable topic, I don't think people should ever see the inside of my head. They'd go running in the other direction.

Hey! This isn't a rant!

I am very very pleased with myself.
I had a very super duper productive day where I managed to finish up lots and lots of assignments.

Daddy and my Christmas present. X)

I went out with Zhen Yu, Kevin and Steven, just hung around Station 1 with my laptop and caught up with each other. I finished my research outline, my book review and got this super awesome totally original idea for my Media Appreciation documentary. All I have to finish up today is my economy presentation and voila! Free.

I like it when I manage to accomplish a lot in a day, makes me feel happy and powerful.

Revelation: The Chocolate Lounge is totally not overpriced and expensive at all. I always assumed passing by that it would be one of those ridiculously expensive cafes but its super worth it. My chocolate drink was like RM12.90, don't tell me you don't spend more than that in Starbucks.

Super duper nice waffles, but the strawberries were mad sour.



My super thick chocolate drink, it had some fancy name like "Ice Queen" but I don't remember.



Ethan and I are super messy eaters. Shame cause the food came out so beautifully decorated.

Evonne, Nardy, Omer and Me at Sunway Pyramid on Monday. Was it Monday?

Kevin: Sheena, I can fetch you home.
Zhen Yu: But I've got a car too.
Sheena: Alright guys! FIGHT!
*Both turn around and leave*
-.-"

PS: If you haven't noticed, my blog layout has been fixed! Yeah~ Thanks to Steven. I'm a totally dummy when it comes to HTML.

PPS: Argh. I have a spot on either side of my cheeks. Looks funny. Bleh.
