fat... is fat

they call themselves many names.
larger than life.
plus size.
sexy.
etc.

well, i'm not good in describing people,
so, to me, fat... is fat.
plain and simple.

but there are different genres of fat people.

the ones who are funny
cos that's the only way anyone would listen to them.
the ones who are bitchy
cos that's the only way anyone would talk back to them.
the ones who are mean
cos that's the only way they feel better about themselves.
the ones who are loud
cos that's the only way anyone will look at them.
the ones who are rich
cos they think they are better than everyone else.

of course there are those who are nothing like the ones i mentioned!
have u met my family and friends?

38''

what happens when you are not the right size?

i had a challenge thrown to me recently,
to dress a Host for a new show.
seriously how tough can it be, right?

TOUGH!
when the Host is waist 38'' and wears XL.

did you know that many brands & boutiques are not
interested in sponsoring fat tv people
or dressing tv people that will make the outfits look fat.

you see, the TV does add pounds on you.
so to start with,
you have to be kinda skinny or slim if you wanna be on TV.

Mm... look at...
Patricia Mok, not Fann Wong,
Jeanette Aw, not Irene Ang,
Denise Keller, not Moses Lim.
they are all stick skinny!
and if you are really fat, then you can only do comedy.
everything that comes out of your mouth would sound funny!
don't believe me, try this.
ask almost any fat person to read the dictionary,
you'd think they're reading the BRIDGET JONES DIARY!

so think before you start piling on the pounds if you're going to be on TV...

moral of this story is,
i don't do size 38''.

wow wow world

is the wow wow world of fashion all like that?

i caught The Devil wears PRADA on tv recently.
if you asked me, its an almost Bollywood movie!
it has the boy & girl bits,
the over the top drama,
girls running everywhere,
and of course, the villain.

but seriously, is the fashion industry really like that we see on the small or big screen?
Mm. lets see...

if you don't have style or think you do, then you are out.
when it comes to fashion, you don't think. you KNOW.

never say no to a stylist,
they can end your career.

you really have to crawl your way up.
sleeping around is not an option.

mingling is good.
pretentious PR is bad.

wearing black is always fashionable.
wearing black everyday looks uniformed.

stop doing favors.
they don't pay your bills.

remember everyone you meet.
they are the ones who will lead the way for you.

fashion is not free,
but you can always get Media Discounts!

stop kissing ass.
your lips are not big enough.

decide if you are the villain or the hero
and stick to it!

and it helps to be good looking.
cos it helps you get a job elsewhere if all else fails.

that's all.

the ones...

what's with people nowadays?

the ones who rush into the trains before letting anyone out.

the ones who buy expensive key-chains & keep them in ziplock bags.

the ones who spend more time in the changing room compared to working out.

the ones who must sample every flavor of ice-creams before buying.

the ones who dump their work load on their colleagues cos its 5:51pm.

the ones who always ask for discounts at branded boutiques.

the ones who buy new luggage & cleans the wheels with wet wipes after every use.

the ones who are really bad in faking good PR.

the ones who drink bourbon with diet coke.

the ones who look busy when the bill comes.

the ones who are from china.

etc.

seriously.

what's with people nowadays?
