it's done! over baby! wooohooooooooooooooooooooo!!! phew~ i'm so relieve the competition is done and over with... like finally... weeks of pain, hardwork and agony... no more! now, i can spend my time freely without having to think about anything at all. err, well... not exactly. haha. but at least one less thing to focus on :) just a run through of how the last few preparations went... okay i sacrificed sleep that day (note that i said day, not night heh), the day we were suppose to hand the completed design in. i spent the whole night sewing more beads and sequins, sitting down on the floor, literally breaking my back while watching this wonderful movie, in dreams, and the very vintage count dracula. my spine hurts till now. urgh. but it doesn't really bother me much so no worries. so then, i did the hair. God! i was irritated beyond comprehension! the hair was like frizzy, all over the place and the locks that were suppose to look gorgeous got tangled up. so i spent the whole morning entangling everything and straightening them out with my own wax. wax on plastic hair. what a joke. wax don't really work on plastic hair so instead on hardening, it got all sticky. and that makes styling even harder. i spent like up to four freaking hours just doing the hair. but i must tell you this, the outcome was really impressive. i turned ms barbie slutty to ms barbie hepburn :p yep! made the hair to look like hepburn's. is that cool or what. lol. just when i thought the major difficult tasks are all done, i was faced with something i hadn't expected at all: the draping didn't work. it didn't turn out like the way i designed. it was fucking frustrating. that draping is the one essential aspect of the whole ethnic fusion look, and it didn't fucking work. i had no choice but to re-theme it to something else, with less that 6 hours to the closing time. everything went haywire. urgh. with not much time left to think of something new and with my energy level going down and sleepy level going up, all i could do was to tie the drapes around the waist and let it fall at the back. utterly pathetic. utterly? honestly i have never heard of it. haha. utter yes. utterly? shrugs. back to the story, oh God... the whole outlook was plainly themeless and definitely not couture. but there was nothing i could do. i couldn't even create that one piece of jewellery i designed specially for this competition. everything went all wrong. but i couldn't give a damn. all i was thinking then was to get that freaking thing done and send it in. and i did just that 2 hours before closing time. but you know, honestly, it didn't look that bad. heh. fine it's themeless and not couture, but it's not ugly. and i like especially the hairdo. cos most of the entries have nothing done with the hair. yawwwnnn... boring... hehe. whatever it is, it's done and all i have to worry about now is the result. but come to think of it, what is there to worry actually? it's obvious i can't win. i'm competing against students from la salle and nafa for God's sake. probability of winning: 1 out of 400. lol. no wait. i heard they are gonna choose 5 winners. still... makes no difference.
maybe arman's laughing his head off now knowing that my theme failed and that i should have listened to him and used his theme. hahaha! kidding kidding! ... but knowing him, maybe he is... hahaha! i'm gonna kill you. lol. but like i told you dude, goth is totally out of the question. there are guidelines to follow, sooo... yeah it's not possible. but hey you never know what the judges think, so if one the winners did a goth gown, i am so gonna kill myself. after i kill you that is. haha!
good morning singapore! ciao!
