so guess what,
the holidays are here

looong break from school
yay for me.

so anyway

i had stuff i actually wanted to blog about,
but everything just left my mind

kind of anyway
oh yes, coming back to me

today's society!
browsing through friendster,
and there's this new page where you get to see the most popular profiles

guess what,
clicking on that,
i'm hit with a page with pictures of half naked girl
in bikini tops that barely cover there tits
they're in next to nothing and the guys,
well they definitely are those with like 8 pecs or something
low slung jeans with branded boxers

so i'm thinking,
what the hell does that mean really?
that people you have to be naked to be popular?
i mean,
i don't have a problem with being naked
if those pictures all over friendster were from modelling shoots and properly taken like say,
bella's or something
(i might be biased or something here)
the thing is,
there are pictures, self-taken i might add,
of ugly girls in nothing

okay my problem isn't really that the girls don't look good
but i mean,
okay we all put good pictures up on friendster right?
so i don't get it when the focus of the picture is on a huge pair of fake double Ds instead of on your freakin face

and why does that make those kind of profiles the most popular?

it's sad that girls would degrade themselves to such a level
i mean,
go take naked pictures of yourself!
go on,
there's nothing wrong with it

but see,
unless your face looks like your boobs in a la perla,
i don't get why you should put it up on friendster so that guys can click and oggle at it and jack off

okay i don't really know what i'm talking about here
because i put pictures of my own nose piercing up and i admit,
i don't look much like that silver stud

i guess,
this was a very long winded way of expressing how disgusted i was at the sort of friendster profiles that were made popular
and it makes one think,
why were thos pages made popular?

okay, oh wells and whatever

i have more!
but i want lunch!
mmm
lunchie munchies

- xoxo

only yours baby

i'm charis vera Ng,
i'm NOT a Singaporean, i was born in UK
but i spent most of my four years in scotland
i love alastair(:
i'm doing my best to live for God though i often fail miserably

ok,try this:
you're this girl who's flown over to this country when you're no more than four years of age
you resent your dad for it,
and it doesn't help when things between your parents don't work out either.

so you miss your home terribly,
you miss going strawberry-picking,
you miss eating boiled eggs out of egg-cups
and you miss warm and cuddly Uncle John and Aunty Esther.

instead,
you find yourself forced to change
and adapt in a horribly hot place
where in primary school,
you meet cold,heartless little kids who ignore you and don't let you play "family"
just cos your accent is different.
early on,
you get weird looks and you find yourself going for recess breaks alone.
your classmates complain to the class teacher when you call them stupid
because they don't understand what to you is simple english.
but they leave you alone when you call them an imbecile
because they don't know what it means.
your primary 1 & 2 class teacher takes joy in complaining to your mummy
because she detests you.
she detests you for constantly correcting her english grammer and pronunciation in front of the class
you soon realize that you can actually gain and keep friends upon them finding out your mother's an actress
but by that time you've more or less forced yourself to lose your accent which makes communication a lot easier anyway.

that was the little girl charis,
now,
on top of that,
i can be a total biotch sometimes, towards people.
and don't tell me you aren't sometimes please.
but i try my very best not to bitch about people.
im a dangerous shopper(=
i never know what i want or need til i see it.

i don't like television.
now that's a first innit?HAH.
bet you never knew someone who didn't like tv
well i don't
and i'm not trying to be different and difficult
it's noisy and boring
i like music:)
i find eating a chore but i love snacking
figure that out
i find certain kinds of pain addictive,
no, i promise i'm still sane.

which is actually pretty remarkable for someone living here,
in this time and place
where you normally get loads of homework,
tests with questions that look like they're in foreign language,
and where everything's a competition to be the best,
the prettiest,
the most popular,
the most hated,
the thinnest,
the fattest, the coolest
the list goes on.
one shouldn't try to be something you're not,
but everyone knows that's easier said than done.
like duurh.
