I guess it could potentially be considered disrespectful. And I don't like to start on the 'he said it first' debate as well because it'll just be childish. Because I made those remarks, I should take responsibility airing a little the reasons for the comparisons. This is not a defence, but rather an explanation somewhat.

When we look at it, we're comparing the similarities in traits which the teachers and friends have identified in cho. comparing what he did ala adding to msn and the massacre of 32 students (33 includes himself) is like apples and oranges. as mentioned, we're comparing traits, adding to msn = part of stalking. we're not comparing the act of what he ultimately did. our dear friend hasn't done any big thing... yet. For the sake of clarification one can realise that the below post did mention that a group of girls have found the traits similar and what's shocking... the word is SHOCKING... to them was that they all linked it to the same guy that's been the subject of much unwanted discussion on the 3-4 posts on this blog. as one can see, the girls he had terrorized were genuinely worried that cho might be what our dear friend will become and they might be on his hit list. Perhaps the language used wasn't of the best in expressing their fear. i'm sorry if the language i used for identifying the traits was taken to mock the VA incident. It really wasn't the intention.

By identifying such traits in him, we are in fact identifying a possible threat to our school and preventive measures may be taken if enough people speak up against him. If you've read the news reports as well, you'd have realized that they did mention that chos are everywhere. Meaning people with such traits are in every school and level of society. He's not so much fighting a religious war but rather sees himself as being the only one going fighting for things he believes in. It need not be religious beliefs, it could just be beliefs.

Although nothing can be gained out of identifying him as a potential threat on a blog, the blogging of comparisons simply serves to wordify my shock as to the similarities between the two individuals. We're worried about the end product of what he may become really. Such things don't just happen in the states where there are guns. Remember the lecturer in Engine Fac a few years back? Not too long ago right? It happened right in our very school.

We can't ignore a potential threat but similarly we also shouldn't ignore the victims of VA and downplay the tragicness of the event in a petty squabble. As mentioned, not everyone knows all the details of whatever transpired but just to assure everyone, it was never our intention to downplay the events and make light of the whole incident. On my part I apologize if the victims or their families take offence in my identification of the similar traits of their killer and our dear friend for the purposes of identifying a potential threat to people around us.

Perhaps we typed too soon and didn't think too much that others would see it as disrespectful. To be honest, my first reaction when reading about his character traits in the newspapers was: OMG THAT'S SO HIM! yup. Really. To be frank i didn't really think OH WAIT I'M NOT SUPPOSED TO THINK THAT WAY. I was more of thinking... THAT BETTER NOT HAPPEN HERE... Such is the flaw of our brains, picking out a part here, downplaying a part there, putting bits and pieces together... Sigh. Still, I'll reserve my right to say 'I told you so' if he actually acts out like cho. Of course by then it'll be too late.

This post is long due, largely because after the photoshoot that on Saturday, I was simply too busy with my spree and preparing for exam. He sent me only a handful of pictures from the photoshoot, many of which are the "in between" real takes. But I thought they were nice enough to just share with my friends, although I probably can't use them in my portfolio. Only the first two pictures are the real deal. The rest were for sport.





This luxurious fur-coat if I didnt remember wrongly, was from Issey Miyaki. Bloody hot inside even though the air-con in the studio was blasting.






Sunglasses from Chanel, Vest from Addidas, Denim skirt from Miss Sixty. TMD, one stupid denim skirt also need to get from Miss Sixty. I could easily get them from Bugis Street Market for $15.

Photographer: Berthold Tenkel

I don't like my nose. I think I need plastic surgery...just some rhinoplasty. i don't need a full plastic face. I just dont like my nose.

The photographer hails from German, introduced to me by Es. It was a really fun/interesting session that day, because the concepts that he actually used on me were different from the other photogrpahers whom I've worked with, and also largely because his apartment/studio is way cool. And so are the clothes that I got to wear for the photoshoot. They were the real deal. Dammit why must I be so haolian...he didn't even give them to me. Anyway, I think it cost him less to hire me than to get those Chanel and Gucci sunglasses.

That thought is so depressing...me being worth less than a piece of plastic.

Dammit, photographer from NYC emailed me today, and I told her I couldn't do a shoot with her because of the blasted exam. If not I would've probably even done it for free in exchange to use her pictures for my new compcards.

On the topic of Cho Seung-Hui and the shooting at Virginia Tech Uni, I have something to say...

After the incident made headlines on today's newpapers once again, a few of my friends, classmates, schoolmates etc texted/MSN me about some parellels they drew between the killer and a friend of ours.

1) He stalks girls, even though he would vehemently deny it, most girls complain about being stalked/harrassed by him
2) He blames the whole world for everything that goes wrong with in his life.
[ie. Me against the "_____"]
3) He thinks he's holier than thou
4) He cannot see past superficial reasons for others' popularity
5) He is a loner
6) He is a loser


The only difference is we do not know whether he has been admitted to a mental hospital, and whether or not he has guns.


Oh btw, I used the word 'friend' because the newspaper mentioned that Cho was a loner and had no friends. Hence to avoid such tragedy from happening, I shall hereby create an illusion that he does have friends.

PS: Hong Myong Bo, you dont have to pretend to be a Korean to make reference to another Korean, yar? I have your IP address, and it looks very familiar...ermm why har?

Making Random noises...

You keep saying you are "NICE" budden since when are you ever "NICE"? How come you've never came across to me as NICE? That's such a ah gua adjective for yourself. Oh and you're a hypocrite too. <---For all the concern souls, I'm not scolding ZY yar? I love him and will never call him by an ah gua anything.

Next person--You!! I would like to hang you up by your chest-high belt using 80kg-hooks from K-mart. Maybe let you hang there for a week...Hurhur <--also this is not ZY. He doesn't wear his belt at the chest-level anyway. He doesn't even wear a belt.

Can't blame me for being pissy...It's 5am in the morning, ZY's sleeping like a whale, and I'm supposed to be studying and yet I don't feel like it. Oh I recognise this as the once-in-a-sem syndrome. That's when I have to study but I cant study. WTF

Photoshoot tmr. Fuck. Liddat how to look nice? My only consolation is my minerals are so nice that hopefully I can glow through and breeze through it. Dammit. And the theme for tmr's shoot sounds like fun. I will have a ball of a time tomorrow. I must. I need to sleep so that I wont look like I just rose from the dead.

,Finally, I feel I've done enough to warrant some serious studying. Starting from after this entry.

For those who reads my blog but hasn't notice, I've put a new link on my blog, to my new blog! I shall just advertise a little here

On another issue, I just read a couple of the dumbest blog ever. And unfortunately for me, I know one of these 2 bloggers. The other loser blogger in this topic, happens to be a fan of the first blogger in question.
Blogger #1: A brainless, plastic-faced(literally), typical bimbo, complete with huge boobs and an empty shell. She apparently worships dawn yang, and went for plasticy in vain to look like her. Sad to say, according to ZY, she looks like TCS actress Quan Yifeng. Though I wouldn't say Quan is drop dead gorgeous, but she has her own sassiness which makes her look good in her own way. But I think it's quite sad for anyone spend a bomb for some major facial reconstruction, only to end up looking like her.
That aside, her english is atrocious. It's not just peppered with mistakes in tenses, a few typos and some missing words. BUT HER ENGLISH IS FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG. Her thoughts are erratic. Actually nonsensical would be a better word. Actually no, i forgot, she has no thoughts whatsoever. The only few entries which actually made any sense were not written by her. They were cut and paste from some website. Oh i'm so surprise. She types in mindlessly short sentenses. Like this. And somehow, she can still can get them all wrong.
Eg. "Went *Falala Gym for *Tralala. And now I felt aching very inch of my body." *Nouns have been changed to preserve her anonymity)
A typical entry would be like 5 pictures of herself posing a la Dawn Yang style, and 1 line of un-English that nobody understands.

Did I mention she speaks with a ninny little fake accent that sounds like crap? And she tells people (rich guys during shows in particular) she goes to school at *Nalala/*Salala and studies Mass Comm. Please la, you think they stupid issit? If you want to attract graduates they can prolly spot your fake accent halfway down the exhibition hall lor. And please la, you think study mass comm = go on tv and act with Takeshi Kaneshiro? And you think mass comm will want you ah? Even if you speak with your ninny little fake accent, your english remains lousy. Atrocious. Whatever. Imagine handing in a research paper Blogger #1 style(on whatever topic. I didn't take any new media modules la):

(picture posing ala Dawn YAng style)

(picture posing ala Dawn YAng style)
Ah this is good paper,*wink* i think. No reason can fail why u say?
Hmm because is tV! Yay!!! No reason. But I think one day, i can have to appear from all the advertisements. Conquering new market is no major difficulties. Master of nuture help me alongs and i has to be happy.

Is kind of troubling to my heart. In my homeland being have got tvs all around. Reminds me of when I drink Rose tea. Wah so beautiful, goddess me.
Why do people not bare themselves on tv? WHy not? I like them to know me. Really. Hmm but i must work hard first. Now I got this promotion to introduce this amazing new mascara. I do it definitely on through TV. So excited.

Blah...I cant do it anymore. Whetever.

Basically my opinion of her, A loser, a wannabe, who is nothing. She thinks physical beauty supercedes everything. DAwn YAng is the goddess. Hence to be successful, there's only one person to emulate. DAWN YANG. So she goes on and continues to pimp herself through her blog.

BLogger #2 This is a HE. HE is a greatest fan of Blogger #1. Reads her blog religiously, and probably fantasize about squeezing her tits one fine day. Maybe screwing her. Whatever la, but basically there's only 2 reason to read her blog.
1)Because it's so dumb hence you read it for some no brainer entertainment.
2)Because you wanna look at her cleavage, which she generously shares with her various amorous teekorpek 'photographers'. This Blogger #2 in question is such a 'photographer'. He is probably the type who NEVER misses an IT show held in Singapore, and his motive of being there? BEcause got alot of IT SHow girls. Wear short skirt, wear tube, alot of makeup, *psst....Hot!! (or not. but got alot of legs means hot liao). Also because it's free entry. He's probably one of those who cramp up the narrow isle with a big Tua Leng Gong camera and thinks he's a big fuck, because he can ask models to pose for him with that big camera. He will collect the pictures of all the models and dunno do what with them. Even when some models refuse, he'll follow them around adamantly. Just so that he can have the WHOLE collection of girls from IT show 2004/5/6/7.

And this blogger #2 have obviously seen blogger #1 from one of those shows. And he comments on almost every single one of Blogger #1's blog entry.

Okie but my main point here is not so much of blogger #2's taking photos of models. It's his blog remember? He is probably another nitwited loser. His blog consists nothing that is written by him. They are all song lyrics written by someone else. Eh please la, what's the point of having a blog to copy n paste other ppl's intellectual property. WORSE...he didn't cite them. Orh hor...if he was writing a term paper, Prof Lockhart would definitely give him an F, and Farrell would probably make sure he's out of NUS. At least Blogger #1 has pictures of herself that she takes herself, and spouts of nonsense that shows how dumb she is. But this sneaky little bastard takes people's lyrics and paste it all over his blog. If you cant wax lyricals, then DON'T! I'd rather he type in ah-beng style hokkien-engriss u know?
Oh and he, like blogger #1, gives one liners when a picture is introduced for a particular entry.

Eg. *picture*
His comments--> That second girl from the left, chio

WTF...so bloody cheapskate lor...liddat also constitutes a blog issit?


And so I shall conclude my blog entry for today.

Today i got meet Estelle to get Mad.Minerals. She chio, I chio, we happy. Yay! *winks* (GROSS!)

I'm back on Yasmine again.

Much as I hate it, I'm reliant on it after being prescribed it about a year ago. Without it, I'm as good as whiney-dead when the period strikes. Plus, you don't know when will that happen. When you 'feel' it coming, it doesn't come. After 1 whole week of anticipation, it strikes you when you are walking in the middle of chinatown. #@$%!!! Ponstan can only do so much, and I think I'm immune to Panadol already, having Secondary school teachers forcing them down my throat everytime I fainted in school due to the pain.

The reason why I've decided to 'take a break from it' 2 months ago was because it gives me yeast.

Having yeast is no joke. The methods that I have employed to destroy the yeast is nothing short of spectacular, but they are way too gross to be described here. And I'm still not convinced that they actually work. And I smell like beer half the time. Not the mention the itch. I read somewhere that because of the high-progestogen content of the pill, it can upset the bacteria-yeast balance in the body, somehow favouring the yeast over the bacteria. Vitagen didn't really help, because it's laden with sugar and we all know that yeast thrives on sugar. My topsy-turvy sleeping habits, didn't do any good for the yeast condition.

More complains...

Then hor, also largely because of the recent stress and sleeping only at 5-6sm, I had a major case of break-out. Break-outs are bad. it traps you into a vicious cycle of breakout -> agony -> stress ->more breakouts ->more agony ->more stress -> more pimples. My skin has always been sort of on the good side, with my major problems being pore-related. Acne had never been a real concern for me. Even when I go for photoshoots/ fashion shows when the makeup artists had to do up my face, they'd always compliment me on having good skin, and are usually satisfied with me just slapping on a thin veil of foundation.(with the exception of the cb-faced *J and *Sher but I'll not kaobei about them in this entry). I even had no qualms about letting xiaobai, who hasn't been in the washing machine for 1999934092 years, wipe his (very) dirty paws all over my face. So back onto the pills to control my acne problem, maybe until after I have adjusted my sleeping time back to normal.

And right, I seemed to have bloated a little bit off Yasmine. Yasmine's supposed to prevent water-retention, so that I won't feel like a barrel of water rolling down NUS hill. So I wanna have my figure back. With a couple of photoshoots looming near, I seriously dont think anyone would be very happy to bring a fat model out for shoots.

Not to mention fat with a face full of boils.

Above all, being off Yasmine makes life frustrating. It's after all its main function.

BTW what makes you think that I AM calling you "The lousy skirt chaser with no qualification?" My whole life doesn't consist solely of you, or humiliating you (even tho I think the class derives great pleasure in that)
Aint you being a little too harsh on yourself by assuming that? Or you simply had to be that?
