Just Blogging Around

Placebo is a newsletter of National Pharmacy Student Association (NAPSA). It get published every two months to all the branches of Pharmacy Student Association in Australia.

I don’t usually pay much attention to Placebo. However, Volume 12, Issue 2 2007 is an exception. I even collected few copies, sending them home for my mum, aunties. Very exciting, yeh?

 

 

Why so exciting? Because, nearly 99% of the photos from NAPSA Congress 2007 (Melbourne) in this particuar issue was taken by me! I was so happy to see my photos too! 

And …and… *drum roll*

Placebo featured me in this issue (!!!)  The very last page, editor Rhyan Stanley used up quater of the page, saying Thank You to me.*so moved wanna cry*

 

 

I never expected such a big Thank You..I just do what I love, and for those whom I love.

I must admit, this is the ONLY Placebo I’m keeping and flipping thru’ the most. All the memories and experience..simply priceless!

 This has been awhile. For you those who read my post previously, I did mention I wanted to go into the Big Brother house. click here to see previous short post

Big Brother (BB) is a reality show. What they do is..The producer selects a bunch of people (housemates), whom don’t know each other, and let them live under the same roof.

What so interesting? You may ask. The funny bit is… EVERY (fxxking) SINGLE THINGS you do in the house is filmed. You eat, you shower, you talk, you bitch, you gossip, you cook… etc etc. The housemates will nominate you to go out or stay in the house weekly, whilst the audiences (Australians) will decide your future in the show by sending sms or phone call.

 

  

 I wanted to go to the show, like I said before, I just wanted to ‘test’ myself if I can get along with other people. Simple as that.

I went to the interview. To be honest, I didn’t know they were coming until Jon told be the night before at 11pm-ish. Great Lord! Since we both had nothing to do on that day itself..Jon fetch me all the way to Claremont for the interview.

Oh dear~! See!!!!!! I haven’t even go for the interview just yet, I already have a fan! Hehehe.

 

 

 The whole process took 6 hours.

We joined the line. OMG!! There were soooo many many ppl. Phew~! It maked me so much better..thinking: oh well! See! I am not the only pycho-ass here who wanna get into the house.

There were 2 registers before the first interview.

I started chatting with people around me.. Great Lord~! I tell you, if I don’t talk to ppl, I would probably DIE! DIE! DIE! It was such a long wait. I also mixed with some people from my line, we started playing cards a bit. It was a very general thingy. I could feel the BB feeling already.

p/s: Guess what happen? I found out I had PERIOD!! Nahbeh! The flow just came to the town. Very wrong timing. I ddin’t get any pads..Luckily there was this pretty tint bruntte gave me a tampoon. A gigantic tampoon. =.='’ note to myself: small size ppl doesn’t mean using small things.

Got into the first interview, there were around 15ppl.2 judges (1 male and 1 female)

The asked us to do silly things–barking like a bitch dog, meowing like a pussy cat, dancing with strangers.. etc etc. Oh dear~! Seriously, it is kinda the first time I feel so shy. Hello! I am the only Asian female there, and I am the shortest!!Aw man!! Why this happens to me all the time??

The judges asked us to tell funny stories. Aww man~! I have millions of funny stories.. all the sudden my brain was just BLOCKED. I couldn’t say a thing. Bloody period~! So, I told them: I usually have many jokes, but today, I am just going to show you I can act funny.

I did Ricky Gervais’ dance..the Comic Relief episode. I did few things from Little Britain. Surprise! Surprise! Everyone was laughing. Erm..I’m that funny huh?

The judges did ask everyone else before ending the interview, who you like to see, who you like to vote off.. All sort of typical BB questions. And guess what? The aussie girls in my groups said they want to keep me, they think I’m funny. WoW! There were other guys as well think I’m interesting. OH MY GOD~! I was so happy. One guy think I can be treatening for him, so he wanted to go. Nahbeh~! Jealous ah? I speak better English than you? Haha!

Hello! Don’t forget! My period is still ON, blood was still flowing. ok?

TA DAH~!!! The result out~! I was the FIRST one got picked to go to 2nd interview~! Woohoo~!

2nd interview. Same same-had to wait for blooooody ages. I started got headache, with that throbbin gpain in my head..and I was damn tired. Period is not fun. According to my calender, this period-aunty should visit the day after. Phew.

 During the 2nd interview, we were asked to introduce ourselves, and tell the judge 3 interesting about yourself.

So, I told them about myself plus THREE interesting facts. THREE right?

1. I have headache now.

2. Because I have period while I was Q-ing.

3. All I can think is, I have this half-banana size tampoon sitting in my vagina, and all I want to do is just sit here and enjoy the bloody flow.

 

=.=”’

 

Interesting???

 

 

 

 

 

Why suddenly talk about FEMALE lah? Der~~!!! What else? it is ME!!! IN THERE~! Hello!?

Yeah, I know. Unbelieveable. This is my very very first feature in media as a BLOGGER. Hey, I am a BLOGGIE Yeah, John-The-Crazy-Pharmacist calls blogger as ‘bloggie’. How cool is that? So Aussie eh? Picture=Pixxie, Susan=Suzzie, pants=panzzie, volunteer=vollie, etc etc.. soo Aussie!
Thanking Jon at very very first, ‘cos he was the one told me about it. His hardwork (boringness) of continuously F5 PPS. After a minute later, Rojaks Wingz taikor also said: You should do it.

Shortly enough, I leave my detail over there. And guess what? I didn’t even know what is FEMALE magazine. Haha! I AM serious! Eh! What do you expect? I am from Bagan Serai, Ok? They don’t even sell FEMALE there. I called home already, mum said she can’t get it. I asked my godparents, my godfather said: I think I have buy it in KL. SEE~! Bagan Serai is so lau-yiah (out-dated). =)

I keep in touch with Audrey from FEMALE; Robert helped me to take few pictures around Perth (click here). Sent the pictures in, answered some questions. Done. Thanking Robert for taking pictures with me, cracking joke as usual, and and and..he takes good picture, he knows how to hide my fat tummy yet to show off my ‘longkang’ (cleavage) Ooops

I did ask around among friends especially those from KL: What is FEMALE? Their answer: Wah! You don’t know what is FEMALE? It is a BIG thing OK? BIG!
So, to be honest still.. I still cannot imagine how BIG it is…or maybe I could. Wait till I go back Malaysia next next year, then I will figure it out. Bagan Serai is so out-dated, so DO I. *sigh*

There are other four female bloggies featured in FEMALE: Suanie, Bunny Wunny, Jenn Tai and Oliviasy.

Thanking Suanie for sending me the scan images. I sincerely appreciate it. *mwah* I did mention this interview to Marcus (mooiness.com), he sorta said something like this: WOW! You are famous! Eh! FEMALE is a monthly magazine, so it is gonna be one-month circulation. Not like the one in local paper, people throw it away after a week or so.

Yeah, I was featured in Perth local paper before as WA AIDS Council vollie (click here) That was 2-weeks thingy. =)

Erm…what a trick question. I am famous? Am I? Maybe from where I from, ‘cos they have FEMALE. Not here in Perth. Perth doesn’t sell FEMALE. Therefore I shall say the out-dated-ness and lousy-ness is equivalent to my Bagan Serai, eh?

Anyway, my point is, I might be ‘famous’ for 5 minutes or one-month in the magazine, but I still can happily walk down to Murray St, ‘cos no one will recognise me. Even I ‘pok-kai’ also, no one cares. So Perth! =) Today is Friday. Another ordinary Friday. Outdoor temperature is 29 degree celcius.

I’ve seen these scanned images from FEMALE, now I have extra-unordinary itchy anal, wanting to feel the hard copy of FEMALE, the more the better, and stack them under my pillow, hug them into my dream. Wah lau! How cool is that?

So..can someone mail me a copy of FEMALE please?

Thank you.

Do you still remember I mentioned about the interview with local paper in my previous post?

YES!!! It is OUT NOW!!!!!!!
It is AWESOME!!

and… It is ME!!! in the FRONT COVER!!! =)
Everytime I say this, I feel like so David Brent from The Office (UK). Hehe.. 

 

I am just too excited!! It is my first time in my life happen that my face in the front page of local paper in Perth. In the past, since I was a little girl, my name will only appear in the middle page of local paper..tiny little printing. Black and white. Nothing really fancy. Just those prices from all sort of competitions. I can’t remember much. Nah! Very shy Nothing really proud to be mentioned.

The last time my name appeared in local Sin Chew Jit Poh was when my grandma past away…Yeah, you know Chinese likes those things. =)

I am soooo excited. This picture was taken in my house. Believe or not, it took us 1 hour++ for a simple shoot like this. 

The photographer was so fussy, he wanted me to ‘laugh’. What? It was early 9′O clock in the raining morning, and I was sick–blocked nose, blocked ears and blocked brain. And he wanted me to laugh and throw the Red Ribbons in the air??? Hehe.. Now can complain lah, cause my picture is already out what!! =)

At that point of time, I wish Robert was there, telling me The Office, David Brent’s kinda joke..and Rodney was the photographer.

 

If you live around my area, can you please help me to collect this copy, please? I want to send a copy for my mum and dad. =)

Wah lau! I wonder if there is anyone will acknowledge me when I jog in the park. I damn shy one, you know. *ahem*

One word to describe my mood at this moment: SHIOK!!!!!!
