Great vs. Small: Forever a Woman's Issue

A Tribute to the Woman in Us All

Was reading the papers - Star Two - on Ms HK 1989 Monica Chan and yadda yadda yadda.....

Damn it!! Did any of you see her flawless skin? More importantly, scuplted arms and slim figure? ....I was in the gym yesterday - doing an hour of treadmill jog, then failed to resist the yummy durian that was offered smack right in front of my face...and thousand miles away, Ms Chan was smilling sweetly into the camera...posing like the world is her plate of oyster..it probably is!

I proclaim this the battle of the great (trying to be politically polite here and at the same time less harsh on my physical attribute *OUCH*) v. small (i.e. pretty exotic birds)

A guy once told me, hot babe gets it all. The unfortunate, not so "hot" - looking babe have to work for it! Dear heavens, if you are listening in: that ain't fair play.....

And Ms Chan had the bloody gall to say: Her dream man doesn't necessarily have to be rich but he must be handsome, looks like a male model and have no zits!!......WHAT!! WHAT!! whatt!!! (incredulous cum puzzled look...neatly shaped eyebrow rising to forehead!!)

I tried to "pikat" a guy not too long ago, he was ugly (which is testament to love/ infatuation being fucking blind)...don't even mention male model look alike...and failed miserably at that too....*sigh*.....are looks everything?

Then, if I am an actress, the world but a stageplay...why in heaven's name was I not born prettier? taller? slimmer?, bountiful (in the right places mind you - coz at the moment, it is all in the wrong area!)? ARGH!!!

That is why slimming centres promising a life REBORN are mushrooming everywhere. And they promise you a whole new life....boost your self-esteem....etc...does it work? From my friends' testimonial, some say yes...others say no. Be your own judge. No conclusive evidence.

Naturally being a woman, living in this sometimes harsh, other times exciting cosmopolitan city, where everyday is a rat race...being beautiful and slim is an added advantage.

I for one, am guilty of thinking that slimming centres can and will be able to elevate my mere existence into stardom. I signed up, made easier by installment payment. Starved myself for two weeks....(this happened last year)....and now, back to hitting the gym...coz the kgs i lost during the programme actually piled back. But, i feel better and more in control now...coz I have tried (squench my thirst for the unknown promises) and it didn't work on me...i know exercise will always be a healthier alternative!

However, must say that I am guilty of being a gym addict. Anyone with the same symptom? I have seen many gals/guys hitting the gym in a rather scary religious manner....why? why? why?

Because we can't love ourselves any other way...we are shaped from other ppl's perception and expectation...Who are the audience of this stageplay, if everyone is an actor?

How the fuck is "inner" beauty suppose to shine when your exterior is shinning and shooting PRADA, GUCCI, Vincci glitters every single minute?

And I always thought inner beauty was everything. Fucking crap actors of the world....

Let me reaffirm, WOMAN ~ we are beautiful...because WE ARE GREAT!!!....

*Sigh*.....been a rather long day my dear friends. So much to write...such jumbled thought...

Still trying to sign off with a smile :)



Pikat = go after, i.e. make a dimwit guy fall for me.
