Beauty & The Beast

<$BlogDateHeaderDate$>

Hey all. Sorry for the lack of updates the past few days. Anyway, the past 3 days have been pretty much dull. All I've been doing was just slacking with Adek Khairil and gang on Monday, since they crashed over at my place on Sunday night, and Wednesday and filming in school on Tuesday. I have my last day of filming in school again tomorrow and I would much rather get it over and done with ASAP cuz it's starting to get really old really quickly.

Anyway, Farhan Shah got eliminated from Singapore Idol today. Honestly, after all the hype and heavy adverts on how talented this year's batch of contestants are and how things are changing in Idol by introducing Hady Mirza as the co-host and all that crap, I'm honestly disappointed. Why?

For starters. what's with opening the voting lines like wayyyy before the show has even started? I mean, they open up the voting lines on Wednesday AFTERNOON when firstly, the haven't even heard the contestants' performance yet and secondly, the show starts at 8 PM on the same night. Doesn't this prove that this current season of Idol is focusing more on LOOKS and CHARMS rather than pure, raw talent? Looks can be groomed on later on but RAW TALENT is what this show should be all about and sadly, almost all the contestants are like lacking in that particular department. Announcing the results on the same night at 10pm is like encouraging Singaporeans to vote for the hottest and cutest guy or the prettiest bimbotic girl. Pfft. Typical Singaporeans. No wonder Singapore can never go far in the media industry. Like sending Fann Wong, who can't even SPEAK PROPER ENGLISH, let alone UNDERSTAND IT, to Hollywood to star in a huge blockbuster movie, alongside Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. And getting Phua Chu Kang aka Gurmit Singh to represent Singapore when the American Amazing Race contestants dropped by Singapore as a stop on their leg of the race. Embarrassing or embarrassing? Pfft. -.-

Wow! I'm rambling on about stuff which happened a long time ago. But hey! It just suddenly came to mind so I would much rather thrash it all out than keep it all in. And allowing RIS LOW to be crowned as Miss Singapore Universe 2009 when her diction is so bad that even my grandmother can pronounce complicated words BETTER than her when she's NOT using her false teeth at times is like the icing on the cake. She can't even SPEAK PROPER ENGLISH for God's sake and she's so...BIMBOTIC. Luckily, she isn't representing Singapore in the Miss Universe pageant, otherwise Singapore would be scrapped off the world map entirely. Booms. Get it? *Flashes the middle finger in Ris Bimbotic Low's face*

And wow! In the blink of an eye, 9 months has already passed and my younger brother's birthday is like this coming Saturday and my birthday is coming up next week. School holidays are nearly over. A lot of shit has happened this year. That and beautiful, bittersweet memories all snowballed into one. I won't go into details as some of it are very personal.

Moving on. Err. I think I'll end here for now.

P.S: Bittersweet
