Here Comes the Bride...N THe Media Frenzy Starts!!

What's the hottest gossip news in town? Of cos it's the Liz Hurley wedding to Indian multi-millionaire businessman Artun Nayar.

Oh talking abt indians, let me side-track a little.. I need to report a case of ABNs on the loose on Sunday afternoon!! A whole bunch of them dancing & frolicking in NTU campus, HALF NAKED!!! N Rolled in Mud! eeks...Sorie..I'm a little biased against Banglas (a.k.a ABNs courtesy of my bro - Ah Bu Nehs) Broad daylight!! Dancing & frolicking half naked, and rolled in mud!! Imagine! Ok, some of u might ask - Maybe it's their colour, not mud. But rest assured! I have examined & concluded that it's mud on their bodies. Evidence - The ground appeared to be dug up, I'm sure they wore pants or shorts & their pants or shorts r also the same colour (light-brown), and lastly, mud is light brown not dark brown.

Ok stop the racism. Back to case in point. The lavish wedding of the year! Liz Hurley & Artun Nayar (41 vs 42 years old). Now why is it that celebrities always get to hook up with millionaires, billionaires, tycoons? How lavish is their wedding? Absurdly lavish! The amount they spent on the wedding is enough for my whole lifetime spending!! Show me the money! & I can quit my job but still live comfortably for the rest of my life!! Damn those rich people.

Let's go step by step through their wedding venues (cos we r sure to be lost) Yes that's right, they do not stop at just 1 church!

1st stop - Married in Sudedley Castle in the Cotswolds. Take a look at this castle! How magnificent! Getting married in a castle! That's so fairytale!! Damn, that's like every ladies' dream!

2nd stop - Blessing in a local church. No mention of name, can't search for the picture but i'm sure it is no small church. It has to be grand grand grand!

3rd stop - Fly to india to continue the wedding. Yes it does not just stop in England. They just have to continue in india (cos the groom is indian). And guess what, it's not just a 1 day event. It is 5 days of celebration!! Crazy people! 5-day Hindu traditional ceremony. Omigod! 1 wedding is already a bomb, they're going to hold a 5-day wedding! So let's take a mind trip down the list of places they're going to be

1st stop - Nothing fantastic, just a family gathering

2nd stop - Umaid Bhavan Palace, the former home of the Maharaja of Jodhpur. Behold the grand palace!

Palace again!! Ok this is the place they (the couple) are going to be staying in during the length of their wedding. The cost of 1 night stay (cheapest) is USD 435 for single occupancy. The couple? Surely they're going for the Maharani Suite which is USD 4K!

"Taj Umaid Bhawan Palace at Jodhpur is one of the largest and grandest private residences in the world. The palace was built by 3000 artisans worked over 14 years. The palace consumed one million square feet of the finest marble. "

Mehrangarh Fort - Another party venue for the wedding. Nice place for a party. On a mountain top.

That's about all...Oh & not to forget those hen parties, preparations, all those celebs guests... Star-studded event of the year! All those money that goes into this. Crazy!! What to do, she's Liz Hurley, with a millionaire hubby. All the money to spend! Anyway, they benefit from all the coverages from magazines (they get paid for those coverages ok) and not to forget gifts & blessings from their equally rich celeb frens. I have to get a celeb fren!!!

A little too lavish i think. But then again, alot of women want their wedding to be grand cos as they say it's a once in a lifetime thing (unless u'r elizabeth taylor). But wedding is the union of 2 parties, not ur whole village! I don't like it when u invite 40 tables and only maybe about 5 tables are people u know. The others are relatives whom u might not have seen in the past few years. I prefer a more intimate affair. Like a small garden party, u know more like those western styles we see on TV & movies! Where the couple takes the 1st dance... Sounds much more romantic!

Or a beach wedding! I like that (cos i'm a beach babe!) Cool & fun concept, not rigid & conventional. E'ryone decked in casual wear or their best party dress & just party all the way! It's so much fun! I don't like hassle.. This is much more intimate & fun! Don't have to wait forever for e'ryone to arrive, e'ryone can party & enjoy the event & more open! Yes, i shall aim to do that if, in the event, I get married. Hmm, maybe i shall psycho my fren to hold a beach party! She has this crazy idea of e'ryone in swimsuits, and swimming out to the centre of the sea for food. Crazy!! but beach party is fun! Especially with Cafe Del Mar at Sentosa think it'll be kinda cool! Of cos, sentosa is the best place in Singapore, we don't have any other nice beaches like overseas (damn!) unless u marry overseas! Of cos, the best is just a simple party in the afternoon, and off to honeymoon! Hahaha... Waiting for my knight in shining armour to sweep me off my feet...

Hot Topics recently reported in the papers

1) Youngsters blasting music loudly on public transport

2) PDA (Public Display of Affection) on overdose

Coincidentally, I encountered both onboard the bus to JP on Sunday night. DAMN IRRITATING!!!! On topic 1 Blasting music loudly for what?!?!?!?! Haven they heard of earphones or headphones??? This young teenage couple was sitting behind me on the bus n they just played music from their HP. Kaoz. What the heck!! I don’t want to be listening to Jewel with Britney Spears singing ‘sexy’ in the background ok. We all want our own peace and quiet, to enjoy the songs they want to be listening to. So please keep ur music to urself ok. Sometimes u just wonder – Are they deaf!!! How can they blast music so loud? No wonder they have no idea, cos they are DEAF!!!

On topic 2 People will start saying, hey does that mean we can’t even hold hands?? Ok please do not over-react. I mean PDA on overdose ok. We do not want everyone to be strangers now. Holding hands – ok, kissing – ok (as long as u do not do it overboard, u get what I mean), occasional huggings – ok. Just not PDA on overdose. Recently there is a case of a couple doing it on a bus, and being caught on tape by someone. Who is more perverted? Obviously the person who shoots the act is!!! Come on, why do u want to shoot such an act? It’s porn!!! If u’r not comfy with it, report. What do u expect to get from shooting such an act? U’r effectively shooting porn!!! I would call what the couple did as disgusting act! It does not even qualify as perverted act!! It is just pure disgusting. I mean – Get a room!!! It is public place, public transport, people do not need such entertainment (tho a bus ride can be boring at times). Public display of ur private parts r just so not it man! Eeks!!! I mean u want to do sth, do it in private. Public is just not the right way to go ok. Don’t know what these people are thinking sometimes. I just don’t like it when people do really too intimate things in public, in full view of everyone else. I don’t need that kind of entertainment.

Read – It’s too intimate things that I disagree. So don’t go walking 3 feet away from ur partner or behave like complete strangers.

Ok, to clarify I did not witness such lewd act and the couple DID not do such a thing.

They only did some too intimate stuff. The guy was lying on the gal’s breasts!!! Not just for a while, but for a long, long while!!! And he was asking if she was comfortable. Eeks. Just cannot stand it..and they were talking ever so loudly!!! Eeks… Please go somewhere else lar… I don’t like that..

"I put semen on my face"

"I take placenta for good skin"

"I swallow"

These are just some of the few quotes that goes to show the extent women go to for facial care! The last one is not meant to be X-rated..It is just a punchline for an advert for Imedeen pills (yes, it caused a BIG STIR in this ultra conservative Singapore small island).

The 1st quote, got it from the TV Show - Nip/Tuck. But I wouldn't be surprised if someone actually does that!! I mean people already do take placenta. Yes, it's true, it has been published in papers and TV actresses actually confessed to doing such bloody act!! Eeks, imagine eating those THINGS u pass out during birth. Puke, double Puke, Triple Puke...

The lengths people go to be beautiful. Maybe you would say "Hell no way i would put semen on my face". But, if it was mixed in a facial cream, you would NEVER know rite?? That was what happend in the TV show. Mixed in facial cream, proved to work wonders, but no-one knows the exact ingredients. So they'll continue to use, until one fine day - BOOM! The secret is out! So what do u do now? Sue the cosmetic company till they go bankrupt? Stop using the cream, which has proved to really work wonders? Would you do that? After using the cream for years, would you just stop 'cos u found out it has semen in it? Knowing makes it hard to stomach, but u have been applying it for years when it has been semen for years. So what do u do? U still want ur pretty face rite.. Me? I don't know. But well, in the 1st place, I would not have the money to buy such a cream (it would definitely cost a BOMB) Do you know how expensive those bloody creams are, when they are just a really small bottle!!!! OH well, I think people will still continue to use it, cos it really works! But of cos, it u had known what it contains in the 1st place, I would s'pose u might not want to try it.

Like the placenta! Yukes!!! Can't imagine looking at it while I eat... Would I eat it if I were not told what it was? Probably not, cos I don't take food that I don't recognise or I don't know. So if it looks foreign, it is a NONONONO for me. I'm not adventurous when it comes to food, I'm just not picky abt the quality.

Haiz..why am I on the topic of beauty care? Cos I'm having a terrible outbreak, from the stress and bloody late nights these 3 weeks. Not enuff sleep causes indigestions, puffy eyes, poor skin condition and makes people fat. Damn, don't even feel like looking at myself in the mirror. Idiot spots and pimples, make them go away!!! How to curb this bloody problem? Must go for more facials, slap on more creams n moisturisers if those help, and within my financial capabilities.

Well, let's not generalise and say women r beauty conscious. Oh pls, we'r in 2007 now. Time has changed, drastically! Now men r equally beauty conscious (n even more health conscious than us women) Everytime when we eat out, the guys will say things like - I've had too much, this is fattening, this translate to 10 more laps of running...eeks makes us gals look like greedy giants!! Ok, fine I know u hv to keep up with ur 6 or 8-pacs - hey, it is a good thing to have those pacs cos they really look good, esp cool if ur partner has those pacs (I like it if mine has those toned visible pacs, n i like it even more if I have at least a 4) But it just makes us look greedy! Of cos don pig out too much cos it is disgusting as well, but at least don't make us feel damn guilty abt eating all those food.

Yes, men r beauty conscious nowadays. Beauty salons for guys r sprouting up everywhere.. and guys r taking good care of their skin now! Facials, moisturisers, toner, u name it they have it. Heck, my bro has more skincare products than me!!! Well it's not a bad thing u know.. At least they know how to present themselves better..which helps in leaving a good impression on others. Well, i'm sure u wouldn't want ur boyfriends to always look sloppy or in torn-tattered clothes when going out right. If ur bfs look good, u'll feel good as well (just make sure u'r equally matched else people will start gossiping again)..I know i would like that.

Metrosexual - that's what they used to call guys who take care of their well-being, with a feminine touch or edge in them. Used to be called SNAG (Sensitive New Age Guy) but i think metrosexual sounds more apt. We should nurture more of such guys here in Singapore. Truly deeper lack those kinda guy...they should really learn how to be more gentlemanly. well at least it has somewhat improved through the years, but really they should learn n improve even more. Watched a show on MOnday night some weeks ago. Topic on the show - How do u propose to ur gf? And guess what? Most, if not all, the Singaporean guys on the show said this:

"Do you want to buy a flat?"

Faint!!

Yes, it is a common thing to say here because only when u get married, then u can apply for a new flat (unless u go private which is more expensive). So whenever, people get married, they would want to buy a flat. And that is the line most SG guys use here to propose to their wife-to-be. FAINT!! Can they be more creative!!!! n romantic!!! I would NOT agree to such a proposal. There's no effort put in it. It's like "well, that's the only way to go after so many years together, so might as well get a flat, settle down".. What the ****?? So unromantic and spoils the whole thing! We're not asking for a spectacular proposal with fireworks or some big wooha (of cos if u can afford it) just be more creative n romantic. NEVER use "do u want to buy a flat" as a proposal line! And gals out there, DO NOT agree to such a proposal! So Unromantic. Imagine years down the road, when u children or some pple ask u how did he propose, ur answer is "He asked if I want to get a flat" Double faint! eeks... Even unromantics like me would hate that kinda proposal line. Take me to effel tower (i think the spelling is incorrect) or some other places ahhahaha...kidding lar, it's not very possible anyway (hint hint).

Moral of the story -- I want to get rich hahaha (this is totally so unrelated) anyway, moral of the story? U go read n decide for ursef. I'm just writing cos i have not written for a long time (which explains the 3 entries I posted in 1 day!! I'm super efficient ok)

Ok back to stupid work. I hate the peak!!!
