Finally, piccies!!

I just finished MJ!! Won $45!! Very tired but guess I'll blog first before going to bed.

Met up with Junne, Clara and Ben for dinner at some Jap restaurant at the basement of Raffles City...

The concept is exactly like the old Marche's, except they serve Jap food instead of angmoh food. It's freaking crowded can!? By the time you buy the food back to your table and start eating it is quite cold already lor...

Camwhoring on the cab:

Without skin smoothening


With skin smoothening

Nabeh I edited both of these photos at different times so they turned out looking so different. Photoshop also got mood one ok!!

Was leopard printy that day



I love my stud! Pink and white stripey beach ball with clear diamante!

I better stop looking so doe-eyed otherwise wait people say I am DY-wannabe how?



Junne and Clara, real friends whom I don't talk shit about.
Their teeth not yellow! :)

Our mediocre food. Is it just me?? Did we order the wrong stuff? The pizza and egg thingy was nice, but otherwise very bah.

Lose the card and pay $$$$!

Junne took 3 tries to take this photo lor... The first two were videos. I look exceedingly dumb in them. If you want to see the video I'll upload it.

Ben acting cute. I hate Ben!!!!!!!!! I'll tell you why later.



Where got people so buay paiseh one keep asking me to take photos for the 3 of them.
Nabeh



Photo taken by Ben, who managed to cut his own head off

Taken by the waiter. OMG! The waiter was like damn GONG can? He took 1 picture, and it turned out realllllllly blur. Then when I told him that the first picture is blur, like can you help us take another one?, he looked at me damn seriously and told me that my camera screen is blur!! What the??

My F21 dress is super slutty. Tie at the back and crazy short! I heart bare-back dresses. :D

Again failure at self-shots



Taken by Junne, who is clearly an expert camwhorer.

I was telling them about my Mahjong losses that day when I turned up to look at the ceiling. It was mocking me.

Junne: Guess who's really talking on the phone?

Actually it's Clara! I was pretending... Well done hor?








Mad.














Don't see like machiam very chummy like that. I actually hate Ben!




Where got people eat with 2 forks??

Ben wants to see if a fork can poke through a plastic nose.

Please hor!!

Plastic people also human ok!! What the fuck is going to happen to my corpse if I get buried? I mean, after years and years when my bones disintegrate, will my implant still be there?

BTW, I don't know if I've mentioned this, but going ahead with the nose job was the best decision I've ever made. THANK YOU MEDIACORP, DR MARTIN HUANG, MUNKYSUPERSTAR I LOVE HEART YOU ALL!

Thank god I fought for it and didn't listen to my mom/Howard/Mike, etc!!

Whenever I look back at my old videos/pictures I just think the old bulbous nose was really very distracting. It's like THERE, in the middle of my face, taking up so much space and like... having a bloody life of its own!

I did the surgery because I've always HATED my old nose. I still am not 100% satisfied with my current nose because it is still not perfect, but I won't do another surgery because I think the reason for doing it will be wrong.

Also because I have no money la. HAHAHA!

The thing about plastic surgery is... if there is something you are really dissatisfied with, why not change it? This "purpose" is to make you feel better about yourself - less self-conscious, etc.

But if your reason is to be ultra beautiful/perfect, then I don't think that reason is right. Because when do you know when to stop? Nobody's ever really perfect, correct?

Hiyah I dunno how to explain la! Basically my point is that people need to know when to stop.

I am not encouraging everyone to also go do it. I mean, there are plenty of blotched jobs around too, but just in case anyone is curious about what I think, 1 year after my nose job.... I never regretted it. Best day of my life in fact!

Junne very happy thinking about my implant lying around with my bone ashes :(



Still laugh!



Clara acting chio



Freaky? Hahahaha!

Nowadays I love to insert the lower ball bearing of my tongue stud into my straw (the size is exactly right!!) and pretend to innocent friends that the tongue stud got stuck and it really hurts a lot.

It freaks them out totally! :D

But in actual fact it is not painful at all. I did this to Mike 3 times and pretended to whimper in pain and ask him to take the straw out for me.

On the third try he finally wisened up and took the straw away from me. =(

Looks like you...



Your boyfriend!!!

Anyway hor, today I am damn angry at BEN!!!

People who don't play Mahjong won't understand so just skip it.

So... We were playing MJ right, then... everyone's cards was quite big except for Ben's... Nobody knew what he was doing la.

Then it was the very very last card. I drew a bloody BIRD.

The bird is a damn safe card coz there were already 3 on the discard pile and nobody wanted suos.

Since my card was the last card, by right I didn't have to throw it, correct?

But in my relief that the game was going to be a stalemate, I threw out the bird, like showing the others, "Cheh... nothing happening la! Last card so anti-climax!"

I didn't actually MEAN to throw out the bird la.

And suddenly... you guessed it.

BEN WON 13 YAO.

When he opened his cards I thought he was just showing us that he ting pai or what...

BUT NO! HE WON ON MY BIRD! THE LAST BIRD WHICH WAS THE LAST TILE THAT I SHOULDN'T HAVE DISCARDED!!

ANGRYNESS!!!!!!

TIO BAO $30!!!!!!!!!!!! (Coz we play shooter-pay)

NABEH!!!!!!!!

Really a stunner lor. Ben insisted that if you throw out the last card it is still counted as throwing... Sorry!

SO NEXT TIME AH, IF YOU HAVE THE LAST CARD DON'T THROW IT OUT STUPIDLY LIKE ME HOR!

End of MJ rants. At the end of the day Ben won $70 and I won $45 so I shall not complain!

*********************

I've received several emails and comments asking if I penned this. Wtf? Automatically it is me meh?

To this unfounded allegation, all I have to say is, WHERE IS THE PROOF?

No proof don't anyhow say hor! Wait I sue you ah! Tsk tsk!!

My videos are awesome

New videos yo!

Be Absolutely You

Advertorial sponsored by Kimberly Clark

Ok here's a fair warning... BOYS GO AWAY! This is a girl's entry and purely for females only!

I told you to go away!!

Fine! Read it if you want! I'm gonna be talking about PERIODS!

Frankly, I hate having my period. Everytime it arrives, it reminds me of my early secondary school days when I would get cramps so horrific I can honestly just faint man!

But thinking back now, I realised I don't really hate periods that much anymore. They are more of a come-and-go thing for me and don't really bother me much.

Gone are the secondary school days of staining skirts! And why am I the one who's always washing people's skirts for them as they hide in the toilet??! (BTW I once used chalk/liquid paper to cover up my stain coz my uniform was white. Haha... My mother wasn't pleased.)

As medicine is invented for my cramps, other things are also invented that are a God-sent.

Such as pads so thin:


Kotex Soft and Smooth Ultrathin with wings

(Amazing hor...? And ultra absorbent too!)

The experience of having my period has come a long way since Feb 6 1995 when I first got it.

Yes! I still remember the exact date ok! I ran to my mother and told her, expecting her to hug me and exclaim, "Yes! You are finally a woman my little baby girl!" but she did nothing of that sort.

In fact she just nonchalantly gave me a pad.

A super thick pad!!

Nowadays periods are so much easier. Pads have improved drastically since 1995, and from slim, they become thin, and now... ultrathin!

They are no longer so heavy they make your panties look like diapers.They no longer leak from the sides.

My grandmama told me that during HER time, when pads were still not invented, women had to use pieces of cloth! And the women had to wash their own cloths coz they cannot afford to waste like that!

EWWWWWWW!!

Can you imagine?? So yeah I guess we shouldn't complain about the circa 1990s thick pads.

There can now be so much freedom when it comes to that time of the month. BE ABSOLUTELY YOU!

As long as you use a good brand you can trust (Kotex for me!), you can still go about dancing, jogging etc. No problem. Especially with the super long kind that will never, ever leak. (Unless you are extremely filthy and don't change for 3 days la)


And of course, the best thing about having your period is knowing you are not pregnant. Eh... If you are not ready la. Which I am not, so it's always good for me. If you want to get pregnant and you are not.. Well erm... good for your husband/bf I guess!! Ok... awkward... Moving on!

I was at Watsons the other day and I saw this on the shelf:

Everything is so prettified nowadays!


The flora box contains:



1) Kotex Soft & Smooth Ultrathin 23cm 20 pcs
2) Kotex Soft & Smooth Overnight Ultrathin 28cm 10pc

Kotex Soft and Smooth Ultrathin pads - 28 cm

Now in a minute 5 pc pack!

This chic little package is really convenient as it is super tiny and can fit into any small bag! It only has 5 pads inside. It's awesome for travelling.

After using up the pads, you can use it...



To put your own stuff!

I imagine if you buy a lot of these and keep the boxes you can build a mini-cupboard with them. Haha!

Can also cam-whore with it!!

Hahaha... So boh liao.

So anyway, advertorials always end with a bit of goodies for the readers.

OH HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!

A general article on my general thoughts on Plagiarism on blogs

I wonder how you all will react if tomorrow you find out that a lot of my blog entries were plagiarised?

Copied wholesale from other sources. Other people's jokes, opinions, information etc... all passed off as if they were my own ideas?

Personally I think that the lowest a blogger can hit. A blog is meant to be an outlet for your thoughts and opinions - so if you have none, why bother to have a blog at all?

Why would anyone's blog be sewn together by bits and pieces of other people's ideas? That's just unfathomable to me.

Excuses people commonly give:

"I don't know how to write so I have to copy" - Better write shittily, or don't write at all; rather than copy.

"It's a personal blog" - Blogs are never personal, even the locked ones. Besides, as my current saga has taught me, it is NOT ok to anyhow write whatever I want on my "personal blog", right?

"I didn't know I had to cite" - Sorry, but ignorance is not an excuse. I doubt anyone older than a Primary Schooler would not know that copying is wrong.



I remember back in school, whenever someone gets caught for plagiarising, it is an immediate fail grade. Not only that, the plagiariser will be announced to the class to be shamed.

Passing off someone's else hard work as your own. Disgusting.


When applied to blogs, is just as grave an offence?

Or is it not that big a deal, because words in a blog are not used for academia measurements, therefore are not so important?

In this technological era, it is so easy to copy. Just a click of your mouse to select your favourite line, and a ctrl C and crtl V. Voila! You can sound as intellectual as you please.

I think it's an even bigger deal. Why? Because blogs are meant to be a platform for your opinions, and plagiarism just goes ahead to give this spirit a sharp slap on the face. Blogs are meant to be for you to express yourself... not pretend to be somebody else.

So in a sense, plagiarism on blogs stands for much more than that on acadamic papers.

On an exam answer sheet, plagiarism is done for an A.

On a blog... Why? It feels like something way more sinister.


By letting plagiarizers get away scot-free, we are endorsing the act of plagiarism.

Imagine you scored 80% in a test because you studied hard and wrote well. Tommy, your classmate, scored 80% because he cheated and copied.

Your teacher knows about this, and yet, Tommy still gets his 80% grade, although everyone knows he is a cheater.

Is this fair? Should Tommy get expelled and shamed?

In your opinion, what should be done?

WHY would bloggers plagiarise?

I can understand if you are lifting off paragraphs full of information, ie if you wanted to describe a movie, and you copy the movie's synopsis from somewhere.

What I cannot understand or tolerate is the lifting of other people's opinions, for example, copying someone else's movie reviews.

When someone reviews a movie it is his/her own opinions! How can you just copy the entire chunk and call it your own? Underhanded, lowly, and worst of all, EMBARRASSING when found out.

Do plagiarisers not have opinions of their own? Or maybe they are so incoherent they cannot piece their own opinions together into a decent blog entry?

A blogger IS his content. Without my words and my photos, I will be nothing. Who ARE plagiarisers then? Is he/she still considered a blogger if it has been proven time and again that his/her image and opinions are both dishonest and copied? What is this Frankenstein of a blogger considered?


I cannot emphasize how much I detest copiers and plagiarisers. As a writer (yes, I am a script-writer and I wrote for several columns before), it is an unforgivable offence in my book, and I hope to see justice served to such offenders all over the world.


Plagiarism is serious and should NOT be downplayed.


Remember: Plagiarism is tantamount to stealing.

Stealing an idea; it's the same as stealing a wallet.

It doesn't matter if you plagiarized only once, it is still wrong.

But in my opinion, people who resort to plagiarism are people who disrespect originality. People like that rarely resort to copying/cheating only once. It was probably done HUNDREDS of times already before it was finally discovered.



p/s: This article is not referring to anyone in particular, just felt the urge to blog about plagiarism suddenly, dunno why.

I am trying to change for the better by making my blog full of kindness, respect, charity, love and pancakes.

So I urge no personal attacks on anyone. If you wish to do personal attacks, please kindly make it anonymous by using the name, erm, "Monkey".

For example, you can write something like, "Monkey plagiarised more than 50 blog entries and he/she is so shameless can?!"

If your Monkey works under someone, the company can be called "The Zoo". So for example, if you are pissed off about your classmate Lilian copying work, and you're studying in RGS, you can write,

"This Monkey in my class plagiarized! The stupid ZOO still allowed her to get full marks! I am so angry!" --> Like that la.

I would of course have no idea who you are talking about, but it's ok, it's your comment and not mine.

Any mention of any names in the entry will be deleted.


p/p/s: I just want to thank my law firm Keystone Law Corp for their excellent job so far. I don't know how I would have gone through this without you guys, and couldn't have asked for better lawyers. (This is not written in exchange for a lower rate or anything btw.)

Thanks for the many supportive emails!

So many of you emailed me! Very touched. And to the person who donated USD$100... Thanks!

As you've maybe seen on Straits Times, I am NOT going to apologize to Dawn.

As I said, if she wishes to embarrass herself she can go ahead and sue me. Those who live in glass houses should not be throwing rocks.

Got something to clarify though. I know many of you have asked me for my bank acct no or my paypal email, but there is still no need to donate anything right now. I can still afford it as of now... not THAT poor la!!

Hahaha!! If she decides to go ahead with the lawsuit I'll inform you guys. :D

Something's wrong with me lor... I keep waking up damn early and sleeping damn early recently.

But I am happy! Tomorrow going to 98.7FM for radio interview with Rozz and Shan at 5pm... Maybe another radio interview with 91.3FM and Power 98. Those still tentative.

I also finally watched BATMAN!! Is the joker funny or WHAT?? It saddens me to think that Heath Leger (did I spell correctly ah?) will never be able to act in that role again... Maybe they should get T-bag (Theodore Bagwell) from Prison Break?

I think Heath's perverse lip-licking is inspired from T-bag lor! But dead, cannot confirm with him.

(SPOILERS)

Omg... I think batman doesn't want to kill him coz he also secretly thinks the joker is damn funny.

My favourite part was when the Joker was in the truck's passenger seat, and his driver got shot dead. He scooted to the driver seat, pushed the corspe aside, and politely told the corspe, "Sorry, got to drive..." and then kicked the corspe out of the truck.

AHAHAHAHAHHA!! I laughed DAMN HARD CAN!! It's just really funny! But to my horror, the entire theatre of people didn't laugh at all... Not funny meh? I think it's very funny leh! At this rate, my movie script will be a total flop lor!!

Oh sorry actually my favourite part is Joker dressing up as a NURSE!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!! GINGER WIG!!!!! HAHAHHAHAHA!!!

He very irritating lor keep telling people about his scar stories! Like those pesky evangelists!!

Then people not interested to listen he threaten people with his knife! Where got like that one?

(END SPOILERS)

Ok la I am off to play Mario VS Luigi before I sleepytime. It's 10pm lor! Gross. Zzzzzzz

(Comments regarding lawsuit is disallowed)

Lawyer's letter

Since I've been accused that this is a publicity stunt, and also, since some of you have requested to see it, here is Dawn's lawyer's letter to me.










Comments are not allowed. If you wish to tell me anything, please email me instead. xiaxue@gmail.com

Loves~! Thanks for the support, guys.

UPDATE: Shuyin just told me this entry LOOKS as if I am apologizing. I am not. I am merely showing you the contents of her letter, which includes her desired template for my apology. I repeat. This letter does not in any way represent my decision whether or not to comply to its contents.

UPDATE 2: I have blurred out the contacts on the lawyer representing her out of professional courtesy.
