A day documented – Movie Star – September 25th 2008

Posted by skmkh2002 on September 25, 2008

Dear Readers,

I went on live television again today. My 3rd time, and so I was surprised how non-chalant we all were. Went there an hour before the shoot, got our scripts and had our make-up done.

I really put effort in fixing my curls last night, used serum, my super wonder hair curling cream (as recommended by my guru Denise) and fell asleep lying perfectly still in bed so I wouldn’t ruin them.

Picture this – the make-up artist finishes doing my makeup, says I look really good, and asked me if I did my hair at home, and I smiled sweetly (as sweet as my limitations go) and said “yess :) :) :)

She does this smile of approval, pats my hair..smiles…and then RUNS HER FINGERS THROUGH MY CURLS TO PULL THEM OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me: *jaw on the floor*

And because I used the super curl wax, she pulled and tugged on them like tangles. hahah what a sight.

Anyhoo, the live show was quite good, our customer came on the show to talk about his experience with HAIR2! Its so nice of him to do that! He’s quite a good looking fella, so I’m happy we were able to help him, but his willingness to come on the TV show when I asked him was so surprising!

I’m lucky that the camera was focusing on him for the majority of the interview, my only downfall was that I sat in the middle, and when I saw my self on TV, I honestly looked <———————> THAT wide. DAMN!!! So being the incredibly person I am, I tried to fidgit just a bit, switch my angle so I look better. haha.

The MC’s didn’t follow the script and improv-ed the whole interview. Which is totally fine, just that Joy’s english isn’t 100% so we practiced the translation for an entire hour (prior to the interview). The MC asked us, Does hair fall out after the customer stops using HAIR2? With my limited Thai, I understood that’s what he was asking, but Joy was also a bit nervous so she said to me in english “What about stop hair loss and HAIR2″ and I was like…hmm??? say what? And then I just replied to him “No.”

and he was waiting for me to say more, and I said, “No hair loss.” haha so ghetto! And he was like, wow NO!!! such a simple answer! haha

A bit embarassing, but we all just laughed it off.

Ohh!! I’m not the movie star in my family!! I just saw Doug on MTV!! “Respect The O.K.” 24 Herbs!!

He’s now in Singapore performing as I type! I’m insanely envious. (of him being in Singapore, not of him being a rap star, not that being a rap star is a bad thing, just not my thing.)

Congratulations Doug!

I performed really badly on live tv today,

Extremely embarassed,

Stacy

A day documented – Signs – September 25th 2008

Posted by skmkh2002 on September 25, 2008

Dear Readers,

I have had a day where I can blog about basically everything – and hence I will document my day in a series of post.

This post is called Signs

I was happy to wake up this morning and check my email – I got an email from Mitchell and Becky! TWO emails, thats alot and small things in life make me happy.

I replied to both emails in a super rush, so while I was in the car (on the way to work) I was thinking what to reply to Mitchell on  Sunday (our usual scheduled email times.)

The newest update? Dad rented me a car! A family friend had a spare car and agreed to rent it to me. Dad’s so sweet! And I’m scheduled to get it on October 1st. I was planning on writing to Mitchell, how now I have no excuse to be a hermit – I have a car, so I can’t hide behind the ‘lack of transport’ excuse.

How exciting! My life doesn’t have to be on hold anymore! And I continued to daydream about the ballroom/ballet classes I wanted to sign up for, actually going out to meet friends (WOWWW) and also when my dynamic duo partner comes, we can maybe live at my other condo on our own!

Fastforward to work – my father’s friend is late for the meeting, because of a car accident.

…..

There goes my car.

And right in front of me I see a clear sign from the omnious one. Saying…

It’s not your time yet. ACCESS DENIED. get back into your damn hole and work!

How Lovely!

Your Number 1 hermit,
Stacy
