Britney Spears is undoubtedly the ever notorious female pop sensation. When you hear the name Britney, perhaps one of her break-through hits would spring into your mind. But all this fame would not have surfaced without the work of media. Her music was widely broadcasted and advertised by the media garnering her attention she needed at the critical stage of her career. However, because of this fame, mistakes that any other human being could have made were regarded severe when Britney Spears did them. To name a few, not wearing underwear, demonstrating little awareness of baby-carseat safety and padding around barefoot in public restrooms. These are actually acts that are committed almost everyday. Today, the little, normal daily routines performed by Britney Spears is published worldwide along with discriminating tabloids written about her. And finally, the infamous two-day marriage did it all. The media has the ability to twist and turn stories, crushing her credibility in the worst ways.
Ironically, the mass media was the reason for her rise, and eventually her fall.

The mass media has also brought about stereotyping. For example, the way blondes are regarded as dumb individuals. Words like ‘bimbotic’ has become widely used and most importantly, understood. This is one of the mega effects of the power of the media. The perception of beauty has too been distorted. Young boys and girls are subjected to reality programmes that portray being skinny and having sexual appeal as the most important factor. It then driven into their minds to slim down drastically and some teenagers even contemplate plastic surgery.

Due to the media, north and south hypothesis exists. For example, more developed countries make movies and portray smoking as ‘cool’. Less developed countries follow suit negatively.



i wrote this article along with auggy's help for my portfolio to apply into mass comm. haha. when the lecturer aka interviewer read it he immediately asked if i own a blog. i was like 'how did you guess??'.

My sis just got married!! On the 24th Feb.



Here's a photo of the family.
Actually its just the ROM. But the main part was that she had her marriage solemnization on the chingay. She looked FAB. She was being photographed at EVERY point of the solemnization.



It was super cool!! Not sure if you guys saw it but she was featured on the news as well as the newspaper. haha. SUPER COOL. Currently she's the star of the house apparently.
She had interviewers from newspapers calling her 2 days before the big day. the whole thing was awesome.. I haven't got time to resize all the photos. Orite gtg have lunch with the star. =D

GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!! my darn laptop's keyboard is friggin' spoilt and my fullstop, comma, page down, open square bracket and close square bracket keys are NOT WORKING

Then, earlier i was munching on new year goodies aka fattening food and i heard my mum come home. I KNEW she'd nag and nag at me for eating so much and so I immediately panicked. attempted to close the lid and all but in that frenzy I accidentally toppled a glass of water over my keyboard. !%#$!!^%!*&^&!@#!$& KNS!!

Now, LOADS of keys are spoilt. I can't type exclamation mark, capital a or q. and my Escape key is bugged too randomly I might press a sensitive key and *poof* conversation window closes. WTF!!

Incase you're wondering why I was able to blog this post still filled with exclamation marks and fullstops, obviously I copied and pasted them! gotta send my lappy for repair (again).

Oh yeah and my mouth has a total of 5 to 6 ulcers right now. thats due to my braces. yes I have them on already. and so I'm ugly now. =( I'm going to have my teeth extracted next monday. its gonna hurt really bad. Think after that I'll just go home and cry. haha

i hate to admit but i DO look better with makeup right? photoshop allows me to make myself look tanner, my teeth and nose smaller, eyebrows darker and enhance my eyeliner.
there goes any natural beauty i ever had..

oh and this was how i looked when i was much younger.

horrid i know.



Have spent the last 2 days visting relatives for CNY. Collected a fair amount of angpows. =D can almost feel my pocket swelling. Everyone my relatives says i've grown to look so different they almost couldn't recognise me. o_O its just the makeup ain't it.

The strangest response I got was from one of my uncles; he says he prefers the old me. o_O and he asked how do i feel about my new look. I DO BELIEVE that looks is important and when you look good, you feel good. And a high self esteem is crucial crucial.



Sometimes I feel really thankful for the way my parents have brought me up. I have morals and principles; i don't smoke, steal nor am I a gangster. And its all thanks to the preachings driven into our minds since we were little.
I'm not allowed to hang out too late nor sleepover at others' place. Yes at times i grumble but at the end of the day I respect the rules my parents set. I never understood those 'rules' but now I do. its entirely for the sake of ourselves.
After visiting my grandma's (my one and only grandparent) place today, it stuck me on how my parents would leave me one day too. and how much my parents mean so much to me. I begin to appreciate the naggings and preachings now because I realise that in future they wouldn't be around to be concerned about us anymore. And how I wish for that day not to come. There are so much that my parents have been through just to provide for us! There's too, so many things I won't be able to see eye-to-eye on with them unless I'm a parent myself. I love my mum and dad for who they are and I'll never for once, wish I had different folks.

I've mailed NP SP and TP my certs n stuff along with the DAE form, now I just have to wait and see if i'm shortlisted for an interview. If I am then I'll go for d interview and that'll determine whether or not I get into the course I oh-so desire.

Oh gosh I hope I get in. For np I had to write a statment aboutt myself, about my goals, skills, what I wish to learn and etc. I really really hope I get shortlisted for interview. Augustine says i could make some portfolio or somethin like do some designs on photoshop. I joined this course back then, its on making websites too but I think there wasn't a cert. If not i could show it to the lecturers.

I should make a portfolio and submit my drawings. I don't actually have any other certs d only one i can think of is Superteens. I don't even think i've got a cca cert nor anything to prove my work history. then again my work history doesn't really matter since the only jobs I did long enough to mention, were telemarketing & customer service at EngWah cinemas. I remember job hopping.. I hopped to another telemarketing firm, admin work for SMRT, waitressing for a japanese restaurant and finally telesurveying for Citibank. And I only worked a short period of less than a week for these companies. haha!

Okay so i think i'll show the lecturers my drawings which I've once done. Sigh but they aren't exactly well designed or burstin with creativity neither, they're just cartoons. AHHHH!! I should come up with some advert like a poster or somethin. I know of some peoply who can design super well on a plain canvas sheet. they just need some paint and you get something cool. Me? i can only draw cartoons or plagarise really well. At least others can write well. I can't. I can only speak well I guess..

Well but at least this course is diversified; I wrote in that statement that I like drawing n designing AND talking and communicating so this course is perfect for me as it caters to both my interests. I said that I'm open minded and open to conversations and i wrote that i know how to use photoshop cos i did game design back in SP for my elective module.

I HOPE I GET SHORTLISTED!!!

I've gotta get that portfolio ready then, I've got this drawing which I did halfway for my elec. module. that picture of the girl dancing. Yeah I never got it done because of that stupid incident where i left my thumbdrive in school by acccident. and by the time i realised and rushed back, it was gone. grr.. Guess i should finish it up now

Alethea says its really hard at mass comm. but in science I feel its JUST AS TOUGH. At least in mass comm its all in english and i believe the modules are more common sense and easier to work on. but in science, you gotta study pressure valves that you just freshly learnt, convert d values (which is still somethin rather new) and draw graphs and stuff, slot in unknown values into strange formula n solve.
its DAMN DAMN DAMN fuckin tough. In my opinion at least.
I think I could send someone who isn't a fan of physics or maths one of my reports, he/she'll flip. Well duh, its so in-dept and not where their interest's at.
I had so much more fun working on my english based module where we had to invent something for the market and come up with a business proposal. But everyone else in my class who were maths and physics-savvy? they pretty much hated that english module.
I was so certain i was in the wrong course. I had enough of it after a year. I'm SO CERTAIN I don't wanna do that for the rest of my life as my career. And science is something you'd have to work long on it, attain a pHd to get a stable good paying job. So I'd prolly only start working in late thirties or somethin. and the only thing I can do is R&D. and no thanks for me.

Every one of my friend's tellin me sci is SO NOT ME. they say they cant imagine me wearing that long white coat in future.

Why did I take it in the first place??
I seriously don't know why. I was a KID. I was stupid, everyone was tellin me science offers a good job scope cos science market was blooming. even my DAD. I got psychoed. haha.. now I'm pushing the blame to others.

But I WAS indeed a kid! I didn't actually see the point of studying humanities and stuff in secondary school. I was always wonderin why are we learning abt sri lanka when we're not ever gonna go there. Only NOW do I realise we learn humanities actually to build up foundations on arguments for english andfor proving our points in relevant ways.

Oh how ignorant one can be. GAHH. Time to look into the future now, won't bring me no where regretting. To make things worse, my bank account has a miserable 2 bucks left in it now. Cos I had to fuckin get my IC replaced. FOOK.

The GLs (i'm just a poser GL, i'm actually GM. ha! but it doesn't matter) had our zoo event today and it was FUN!

But one thing bloody pissed the hell outta me. I MUST blog about this bitch we met!

At one point, we had to take a group photo for one our many tasks and the photo had to have a picture of a pig in it. We tried doing self-timer, but the photo wouldn't contain the pig picture. I had to ask this woman (i.e the bitch) and her friend whom were the only people around, to take the photo for us. But, she was eating.

So I said, "Excuse me sorry to disturb your meal but could you.."

And she fucking interrupted me saying, "yes you should be"

WTF??

URGH that was so bloody RUDE. If she couldn't tell, I was already trying my best to be as polite as I can be.

So I said, "then do you want to help us or not?"

She heard it as 'you don't wanna help us?' then she gave this STUPID black face and complained: "i mean yeah, I'm having my lunch and all.."

FUCK HER LAH.

She's sooooooooo IDIOTIC!!! Grrr if she's so unwilling to help then DON'T HELP. I didn't even appreciate it when she took the picture for us! Its not like we didn't try to work it out on our own first. If we could we have just used self-timer. I rather we figure out our own ways then have to bear her FUCKED UP attitude then still show gratitude to her for helping us take the photo.

BITCH BITCH BITCH.

I mean, we students are just there at the Zoo; a nice and warm tourist spot to play our games and have fun, couldn't she just respect that? Than to totally ruin our mood and fuck the whole thing up? FUCK man I shouldn't even have asked her. I'm gonna say it again, BITCH!


Phew. Thats a load off my chest.



Another thing freaked me out just 2 days ago.

I was walking to the NEL at dhoby ghaut mrt station and while I was on the escalator this strange man came up to me and said in mandarin, "miss can I be your friend?" in a very low voice, sounds almost like he's moaning it out. Gasp!

I heard it but pretended not to and quickly scurried off to the train. The train was approaching already and thinking I shook him off, I stood at one of the cabins and awaited the train to stop. Doing so, the man walked by, and spotted me!! Then he stood beside me and continued repeating "miss can i be your friend" and even started moving closer to me!!! OMG I got so freaked out I fled super quickly and attempted to enter the train at another cabin.

The train doors opened and I entered the train. I continued walking to the end of the train escaping from the crazed man and everyone in the train was staring at me. I turned back and alas! He was following me!! Wtf wtf. I decided to stop and wait to see if he'd still follow me. He didn't. He stopped when I stopped too but he was 2 cabins away I think. I started thinking of what to do, my heart was racing at top speed and I was freaked out real bad.

And just when the doors started closing, I zoomed and squeezed out of the train. PHEW!! I don't think I can stand being on the same train as he was! So I waited for the next train. Imagine if he walked up to me and started harassing me again. Immediately after I got out I was so worried he'll follow me out too. If he managed to, then there'd only be the 2 of us in the train station! Since everyone else had board that train. But anyway he didn't follow me out and I was super relieved. I instantly rang dino up to tell her about it, my hands were sorta trembling and were clammy cold.

darling dino and my dad says I didn't have to be so afraid because there were so many other people on the train. I just have to simply tell someone that a suspicious man's following me and I'm in good hands. haha. But I'm still thankful I got off that train. Those people on the train who saw me do that (- get on the train, walk 5 cabins down and get off) though, must have thought I was mad or somethin. haha
