if women were the weaker sex, the world would've died off a long time ago already.

women have to bear the pain of childbearing and endure monthly periods. victims of sex crimes are mostly women. women are ridiculed by men when they stand up for themselves, when they try to assert their power. women are slapped with labels like "bitch", "slut", "whore" and "cunt". women are expected to always be one step beneath men.

in stories, it's always young virgin girls being sacrificed for the vengeful god. it's always the female to be captured by some monster and having to be rescued by some knight. joan of arc led the armies of france to victory, and she ended up being burned at stake. wang zhaojun did not believe in bribery and stood her ground, and she ended up being sent to mongolia where she died of pneumonia doubled with homesickness. when the emperor has a harem of 3000 concubines, he is regarded as powerful. when evita peron tried to reform argentina, the people called her a slut and dangerous jade.

but despite all these prejudices, women are still alive and going strong. they are still bearing children. they contribute to the economy and the society. they can do things that men can do, equally well too. without women, the world will be missing half of its population. heck, without women, the world would not even exist.

face it, men. women are just as important as you.

i really need to do my homework. i still have 4 essays undone and i still have to study for the history test. and i'm going to OBS next week. DAMN.

I hate the world today
You're so good to me I know
But I can't change.
Tried to tell you but you look at me
Like maybe I'm an angel underneath
Innocent and sweet

Yesterday I cried
You must have been relieved
To see the softer side
I can understand how
You'd be so confused
I don't envy you
I'm a little bit of everything

All rolled into one

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed

I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it
Any other way

So take me as I am.
This may mean you'll have
To be a stronger man
Rest assured that when I start
To make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change

And today won't mean a thing.

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed

I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it
Any other way

Just when you think
You've got me figured out
The season's already changing.
I think it's cool you do what you do

And don't try to save me

I'm a bitch, I'm a lover
I'm a child, I'm a mother
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint
I do not feel ashamed

I'm your hell, I'm your dream
I'm nothing in between
You know you wouldn't want it
Any other way


I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you're hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover

I've been numbed, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it
Any other way

- Meredith Brooks, "I'm A Bitch"

again i shall speak on a topic that has no particular relevance to world peace.

MY HAIR FINALLY CURLED!!!

then the wind blew at it, and it's back to my frizzy waves.

anyway.

my brother got his medical scholarship. which is wonderful, so now my mom can finally go for liposuction AND a face lift, and she'll stop complaining how dowdy she looks.

see my bikini it's just the right size
don't you enjoy how it rides up my thighs?
look from behind it will knock out your eyes
i'll show you, my special trophy of war
for a marine i'll show more!

this stupid verse is stuck in my mind.

i don't believe in heaven or hell. i believe in karma and reincarnation.

how dare you curse me to go to a place which doesn't exist to me?

how dare you call me a pagan?

why don't you take some pointers from buddhism? accept and embrace all living things regardless of differences. instead of condemning non-believers and non-christians to hell.

just leave us alone. i am perfectly happy as i am. don't come waving your bibles at me, then cursing god because i stand by my own religion. spread the gospel if you wish. but ultimately it is i to choose what i believe in.

my dinner was a banana, a few pieces of seaweed and half a can of water-packed tuna.

now i have disgusting little bits of tuna stuck to my teeth.

there was a write-up about me in streats! hahahaha!

but my name wasn't mentioned, because i would get disqualified.

but my picture was in there!!

seems like i get into ketosis really quick nowadays. i just ate 4 hours ago and now i feel those signs again.

i fall sick easily too.

must be bad karma.

going to meditate on that.

i made it to the second audition.

no big deal, still called audition. why make such a big fuss about it?

went to register for singapore idol and ended up being interviewed and filmed. and on a day when i wasn't wearing any makeup!!! and i was wearing a ratty old tank with my faded old bermudas! with my hair in a careless topknot!

i gotta look nicer for my audition tomorrow.

so tired! but thank god it's vesak day tomorrow.

singapore idol. what a joke. i dont see what's the big deal about it. it's just a singing competition. i dont feel excited about it. i dont even dare tell people i'm taking part in it until they ask me. then i'll quickly change the subject. it's embarrassing.

i have a tummy ache. but i'm hungry.

i am filled with power, wonder and strength.
