Malaysian Dreamgirl - The plot thickens...

i just finished watching the latest episode of Malaysian Dreamgirl and i was right. the drama around the house is starting and from the episode, the plot is certainly thickening. this episode they revealed who they were b*itching about in the last episode. the three girls that they wanted out are Cindy, Adeline and Valerie. particularly Cindy but most of them are okay with the latter two but because the three of them always hang out together, so i guess too bad for them.

the conversation between Cindy and her father was so funny. it certainly proves that there's some truth in their claim where they say Cindy is so fake. i was laughing my head off, she was going on and on and on...about how everyone is boycotting her and shunning her that she kinda lost her temper by the end of the conversation. oh and the father was giving her some advice about not being so frank with her opinions of others so that life can be easier and not to cry so much. LOL.....Cindy, a small advice: it's not really good for your reputation if conversation like that is aired. so be careful with your words, darling...the production crew knows how to translate Mandarin.

Hanis and Fiqa were b*tching about Cindy for whole 7 to 8 minutes of the show and clearly there's a lot of things happening in the background. about Cindy not making an effort to clean the house and never doing housework. and i think Cindy is a bit overboard when Hanis mentioned about the egg incident. but strangely, Fiqa and Hanis seem a bit teary-eyed during the interview. wonder why though....Adeline comments about the rest of the girls being jealous of Cindy was so...so....naive *roll eyes*...maybe they are, but it's highly unlikely. they seem more annoyed than jealous to me.

towards the end of the show, the second elimination round was carried out and the girl with the least votes will be sent home.


bottom three

the unpopular girl aka Cindy gets to stay on...

in the end, Valerie was sent home. she was really sad to leave and one of the production crew had to help her down the stairwell.

now the quirky girl is not in the competition anymore :(

8 more to go...who will be eliminated next? the next show will be shown on Saturday, so stay tune, kay?

Malaysian Dreamgirls - The drama starts....

i've been watching Malaysian Dreamgirl since it started showing in march. for those that have no freaking idea what i'm talking about, Malaysian Dreamgirl is Malaysia's first online reality model search. despite being such a new programme, the show is actually quite good with a suprisingly large group of sponsors. and all the freebies that the finalist got from the show, makes me want to join to show as well :P and they went for flying fox, that's like so cool. the model that wins even get to drive back a brand new nissan latio... but i hope the editing crew lower the volume when they get freebies though, it's quite unnerving, 12 girls screaming at the same time *shudder*

as i was saying, the show is starting to heat up now. the finalist is required to stay together in a house for the duration of the competition and from the episodes shown last week, there's some sign that the drama will start soon. apparently, some of the finalists don't mix too well with the rest. but not too sure who's who yet as they never really state the finalist's name. oh well, i'll just have to stay tuned to find out. can't wait for the catfights, hair pulling and scream fight to start happening.....lol..

anyway, here's some eye candy from the latest photoshoot at Precinct 2, Putrajaya.

Adeline

i really like her during the audition show but somehow as the show progresses, she doesn't shine as much.

Cindy

her pics usually don't turned out too well and her crying scene was a bit annoying -__-

Eyna

she has very unique facial features but somehow i find the face a bit "lacking" and something just don't look right, hmmm...maybe it's just me. but i like the pic alot.

Fiqa

not much to say about her but this pose of her look so not model-like >.<

Hanis

she look so much like a biker chick in this pic.

Jay

she's so masculine in this pic. i like...and her legs are like sooooo long.

Nadia

my first impression of her was "wow, she's scary". throughout the show, she looked very scary and "garang". i think it's because of her eye brows? anyway, i really like this pic and at first, i couldn't even recognise it was her. the pic look so calm and comfortable, just lazing away in the armchair.

Ringo

strangely, her outfit for this photoshoot look so feminine compared to the rest. and the pose look feminine too...hmmm...

Valerie

i miss her big hair, but her new hairstyle looks great too. she's the quirky girl and oh so cute. but this pic doesn't do her justice. her previous pic for women's secret was like WOW, she looked great and she got nice assets.

that's all, only 9 left. too bad Alison got eliminated. and why oh why Jean pulled out. gonna miss them both on the show.

can't wait for the next show....

Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

i still remember this poem from back in secondary school when this poem was included in the English Literature Studies. haven't taken much notice about the syllabus for SPM now, wonder if this poem is still in the book

looking back at this poem, i guess at some point in life, everyone will be able to relate to the message behind it. when you come to a junction, you'll want to take the road that you are sure will lead you to where you want to go, the road with the best sceneries, the smoothest road without potholes and ditches but will you really know the condition of the road before you even take it? of course if you gone down the road dozens time before, you'll know where the holes are and how to avoid them and there are always signboards and maps you can refer to.....but what about the roads in our lives

roads in ours lives, the decisions we make each and everyday of our lives. sure it may not mean much whether you order mocha or latte at your favourite coffee house today but what about bigger decisions? your life direction, the values you want to hold on to, your career path and also those that involve love ones? what about those road? there are no signboards and maps that can help you. oh sure, nowadays there are plenty of self-help books out there, but can they really predict exactly what will happen, are those books going to be your manual in life? do you want your life to be arranged and scripted out like the truman show

its the surprises and the twists in life that makes us feel alive. it is the ability to choose our own path in life, the freedom to make mistakes and to find and make bittersweet memories. it is all these experiences and memories in life that make us who we are right now. sure, there were tears, heartbreaks and regrets but there were are laughter, love and comfort. ups and downs in life is what makes the world go round, it is those bad experiences that makes us appreciate and be happy for all the good things in life. what a dull life this would be if you get what you wish for, things just goes as planned, everything just falls into place. yea, there will be no sadness and tears but will there be happiness and laughter

i know all these concepts and i really understand but whenever i'm at a junction, i struggle and hesitate and sometimes i make the wrong decisions. i took many wrong turns and hoping someday i'll take the right road. sometimes i've wondered about the road not taken, what might have been and the what if's but no point dwelling on those right? everything happens for a reason and if it's mine to begin with, it will always be mine right

there's so much i want in life, so much i want to experience, so many places i want to go and so many things i want to do. i want to try but i'm scared. i'm terrified but maybe if i'm just brave enough to take small baby steps, maybe i'll be brave enough to take bigger steps later down the road and reach my final destination happy, contented and full of memories. bruised, tattered and tired maybe, but happy nonetheless...

if there is anyone reading this and you're at a junction too, let's do this together, shall we ^_^

p.s. regardless of what i said earlier, i sure hope someday a genius will invent a gprs device that can tell us our roads in life. LOL

decisions, decisions, decisions.....

why do i always have to face with decisions? do i follow what my heart says or should i look at the pros and cons of the situation? but what if i make the wrong decisions? i have faced too many of those so-called wrong decisions.

should i make the decision now or should i just let it simmer for awhile? would i be too late to make a decision then? should i take this opportunity even if it's not exactly what i'm aiming for? but exactly am i aiming for? i'll be graduating soon but i still have no freaking idea what i want to do in life? how i did i get in this situation in the first place?

sigh....but regardless, my decisions - good or bad - have brought me to where i am now and despite the ups and downs, it have been a great adventure nonetheless.

hmmm....i'm too fickleminded and i think i tend to be contradicting sometimes. i lament about making wrong decisions but then tries my best to see the good thing out of it. it just boils down to being a coward and a proscratinator i guess. afraid to put my foot down and will try my very best to wait until the very last minute to make my move.

what still thinking about what should i do? if i back out now, will i appear irresponsible and unprofessional? or should i just go, afterall it's just the second base...nothing is set in stone yet. but what's the point of going if i'm even considering that possibility? apart from that, there's the possible bond i need to take into consideration. how long do i need to wait and will i be selected?

oh my....what should i do?

A lesson in love

met up with a friend today. he needed a break from his busy working schedule so he dropped by for a visit. a quiet afternoon spent with a friend turned out to be an eye-opener. he's much older and has been making a living for a considerable time and there's no surprises that he's more experienced and so much wiser.

we talked a lot and somehow we got to the topic of my lovelife. my pathetic lovelife. somehow it was so easy to talk to him about it, so much easier than with my closest friends. maybe because i know that he won't judge me and because he's not in my normal circle of friends.

he made me realized that this life is actually quite simple. it's a give-and-take life, if you can give what they want, you'll be able to take what you want. but what about all the fairy tales we read when we were children? what about happily-ever-after? what about true love?

but i guess it's true somehow. i'm hopeful but i'm not all that naive either. i know that it's a cutthroat world out there, a place where you need to fend for yourself, having to keep your weaknesses to yourself and showing only the best you can offer. but must this also include love?

i'm not at all experienced when it comes to love. i messed up real bad in this department. i broke so many people's hearts just because of that one decision. if i have taken more time to think it over, if i have had the strength to say no and be logical about it all and not be rash, things wouldn't turned out to be the way it is now. i feel so much guilt that i can't be a real friend.

And the feelings for him is still deep within me. i still think about him all the time despite it being close to 4 years now. i still think of him before i drift to sleep at night and all the memories still lingers on the very moment i wake up in the morning. how i hope for a day when he'll wake up in the morning and realise that he's madly in love with me and will once again pull me into his warm embrace. how i wish....

i sometimes do wonder though about this feeling i have for him. is it really love or is it just the need to hold on to something that i can't have. what is this feeling i have for him? and i doubt that he still feels the same way. he gave me all the answers that i seek and i believe him. but i can't seem to move on, still trying very hard to hold on to those sweet memories.

i'm no longer featured in his life, we no longer share any memories together. i don't know how he is and all the things happenning in his life. he found a new life now, striving to achieve his dream in life and i guess i'm no longer in his heart now. as long as he is happy, i guess that's enough....

to him, take care....

as for me, i'll survive....
