My professor made a good point yesterday

so Rintamaki's riding on the bus drifting off when he was violently awoken by the audacity of this Burger King ad:



IN SINGAPORE.

this is suggestive in so many ways. this really shatters our oh-so 'conservative asian image'. first of all, she looks like a blowup doll. secondly, 'IT'LL BLOW' is pretty huge and don't even get me started on the elongated 'burger' on the right. and 'IT'? call me a crazy feminist or whatever but this is bordering on objectifying women. and the fine print at the bottom reads 'Fill your desire for something long, juicy...'.

MY GOD. the SHEER audacity. someone's gonna lodge a complain soon, I can hear it.

but I am kinda hungry now.

9am Saturday.

I wonder how Jessia Biel feels. if my boyfriend made a video like that I'd probably kill him. then her.

things to do for monday:
1. Study for psy333 quiz
2. Study for COM249 quiz
3. Try to get through the longest day of the week.

the only thing that's gonna help is the fact that my camera will be ready to come home from the Camera Hospital on wednesday/thursday. a celebration will definitely be in order. I think I'll buy like a million rolls of film for the occasion.

on a totally random note, I think I've been wearing too much purple lately. I found a shade of dark purple eyeshadow that looks best on me (at least I think so) and as a result have been wearing purple a lot. but I like purple.



maybe it sucks on your computer screen. but for the record - becuase this is really so important that I inform you - I like a little grey and red in my purples. so it has that kinda oldish, ill-defined look to it but still pretty and not loud. you know like subtle but it still stands out...

time to head for breakfast.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD MORNING!

My dream came true. Literally. I really dreamt about this a few nights ago.

my awesome papa gave this to me:



this has been sitting in a lonely, cluttered corner of my house without my knowledge until yesterday. I think I had the longest string of happy-vulgarities in my head after he gave it to me.

I've always wanted to get an SLR. but I'll kinda cringe at the fact that I have to get them second-hand. BUT THIS IS FROM MY OWN DAD.

OH
MY
GOD

the world is good again.

this morning when I woke up and looked in the mirror, I almost fell over when I saw that I somehow managed to have a butch/ah beng hairstyle like so:



so after quite a bit of flat-ironing and usage of bobby-pins, I managed to look girlier:



yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah. just wanted to share this bit of useless information.
