Miss Universe 2008

OOOOH. Hotness.

Miss Universe just ended and I must say, that two hours is simply short. And honestly, I don’t like the way they narrowed down the delegates. From 80 to 15 to 10 and then the final five. I missed the times where they had the top ten, then judged them based on swimwear, evening gown as well as a short Q&A. It seems much more fairer in that way.

What a shocker. India did not make it to the top 15 and instead, Vietnam took over. Hmm. Rigged much? And Japan got through top 15 but failed to make it to the top 10. She had really nice set of buns, no doubt but she walks like a man. OUCH. But I like her lips. Very Angelina Jolie-ish. SEXAY.

El Salvador won Miss Congeniality while Miss Thailand won National Costume. Singapore, as usual, wins NOTHING. When will we ever win? Sigh. OH. Miss USA slipped again. Last year, they did and now, this year, it happened again. But on both occassions, they stood up gracefully so still not bad.

Here is a video to contrast their falls.

The final results were as follows:

Miss Universe – Venezuela
1st Runner Up – Colombia
2nd Runner Up – Dominican Republic
3rd Runner Up – Russia
4th Runner Up – Mexico

I was rooting for Colombia to win though. She was so damn hot!

And oh, being the accountant that I am, Ernst and Young tabulated the results. Wootness!

Here’s a picture of the winner!

Miss Universe 2008 (Venezuela) – Dayana Mendoza

Miss Japan – Hiroko Mima

Miss Spain – Edie Britt Claudia Moro
She honestly reminded me of Nicolette Sheridan who acted as Edit Britt. Watch her and you will understand why.

Alright, gotta get ready for school now! Talk to you guys later!

Explains why I need 8 more lives.

I never liked CATS. Not now, not ever.

First of all, I hated cats since young cause they caused me to have a phobia. I tried making friends with them but apparently, they don’t like doing so. Hence, I gave up. Then in poly, we had Creative Applied & Thinking Skills (CATS) and I failed to get my A for it. So, in short, no cats in my life.

I’m not gonna blog what happened but I will post a conversation with Charles earlier in the morning.

(8:54 AM) Winner, winner,: tough life eh?
(8:55 AM) insignificant ot: I KNOW.
(8:55 AM) insignificant ot: i’m gonna copy and paste this on my blog now.
(8:56 AM) Winner, winner,: haha..
(8:56 AM) Winner, winner,: enjoy!

So, that in short, describes my morning. Really. I think that my life very happening now leh. Early in the morning already enough to write up a post. Later how? I’m really scared that these cats will come back again.

You know the worst part is?

These cats are like mat reps. They loiter around. No homes and such. And I definitely can’t win them cause they have nine lives while I only have one.

You tell me what to do. I’m scared shit now.

OH, update you later about life. Watching Miss Universe now. DAYUM!

[A Maths + Competition + Pushing Daisies] – [Rest + Sleep]= Tired Syahid

Phew! What a Sunday it has been.

I was configuring this blog till like 4am and ended up waking up at around noon. OMG. That’s like just enough. 8 hours of sleep. Lucky bitch, aren’t I?

Anyhow, today was pretty productive I must say. Was supposed to meet up XiaoXin at around 1pm and we both were late so we ended up meeting at 2 instead. But… he was late for 15 minutes! Tsk tsk. But nehmind. I forgive. Went to Starbucks at Civic Centre. Studied till around 4 plus when I then logged into my MSN.

Guess what?!!!

I forgot that Hafiz was gonna teach me A Maths today as well. I thought he wasn’t coming cause he didn’t confirmed anything. So, I feel horribly sorry for what I did.

(4:26 PM) . : PiSiaNTeS :: hoi! [hoi!]
(4:26 PM) . : PiSiaNTeS :: mana lu! [where are you?]
(4:26 PM) . : PiSiaNTeS :: aku dah sampai civic la deng [i already reached civic lah “deng”

Yes, the ones in brackets are the translations. And I dunno what deng meant. It’s not malay by the way.

And he was there since noon. OMG. So, I asked him to join us. He did at 5 but our humble abode was not enough. So, we waited till the next group of people beside us went off before we had a lot of space. XiaoXin stayed until 7 and then gave up. I sucked as a student as well as a tutor in microeconomics cause he said he couldn’t understand! So sorry!

So, Hafiz was CS-ing before he taught me A MATHS. Well, I guessed I tested both their patience today with my slowness. But at the end of the day, I assure you that I did learn something. Well, I think I did so it wasn’t that bad.

Sigh. Why did the universities require us to take A Maths and put it as a prerequisite? It’s so dumb. AAAH. To get an education in Singapore is so damn hard. We are all so stressed out and it’s no fun at all. POLY life is so torturous. Le Sigh.

Oh well, like Hafiz said, “Senang je! Chicken Feet” (So damn easy! Chicken Feet).

Finished revision at 10 and then headed home. OH. I feel VERY bad that he didn’t manage to get his dinner cause mom would kill me if I ate out. He wanted to belanja okay? But I refused. In the end, all he ate was a McChicken and a Big Gulp. And I left him alone cause I had to rush home for Pushing Daisies. Luckily I made it on time. The moment I switched on my tv, it just started. Thank heavens!

In the meantime, pictures from today!

yours truly.

Xiaoxin!

Xiaoxin and me!

Hafiz CS-ing!

A MATHS!

Hafiz patiently teaching me!

Anyhow, you are probably wondering why I am still typing this at 3 plus AM and not sleeping? Cause I just ended my discussion with my team mates for the SIM competition. It’s not as easy as I taught so yeah. But it was fun. I really hope we can really kick ass in this competition. I wanna go Hongkong Disneyland and have a lot of fun enjoying myself to gain exposure/experience in this game. So, God, please bless our team.

Alright now, I got to sleep cause I wanna catch Ms Universe later at 9am and then proceed to school after that. Toodles people.

AND OH! Please fill up the survey at the right. Thanks!

PS: Changed my song. Supposedly the new one from Girlicious, “Leftovers.” <3
