The one with an eyebrow trim...

I am so freakingly fucked big time!!!
I am so intensely infuriated!!!

I have always wanted to try out something new, but never had the opportunity to do it until yesterday. I went to watch ‘John Tucker Must Die’, very lame cheesy but entertaining show. Since I still had some time on my hand, I thought maybe I would try out ‘Browhaus’ at the Cathay. It’s basically a salon for shaping your eyebrows. A good friend of mine, Andrew, tried it and the outcome was pretty good so I thought maybe I would try it since I am so fucking vain!!!

Initially I wanted to do threading but they don’t have the time slot to do it, so I tried tweezing instead. This lady, Bernie, attended to me and she was telling me how my eyebrow should be. Since I am a novice, I listened to her advice. Some of her advice included not cutting too short, too thin and too much as it would look too ‘gay’, so I heeded…

So the process took longer than I expected, and since I couldn’t see what she was cultivating unlike in a hair salon, you can tell the stylist when to stop, I just had to leave it to her better judgment. Seemed like 30mins later, finally she stopped and it was done. She handed me the mirror to check on her masterpiece. At first glance, I thought it was not too bad, but I didn’t know that since I was looking at it lying down, I was looking at it at a different angel. As I proceed to the counter to pay, I waltzed pass a few mirrors and at those moments, I checked out that masterpiece closer.

The more I stared at it, the more I felt strange and she was constantly advising me that if next time I need to ‘mold’ it, she could help. As I waited for my change at the counter, I noticed Bernie had an expression of guilt on her face she was constantly looking at me. Then it dawn on me…

That FUCKING BITCH transformed me into a FREAKING DRAG QUEEN!!!

ARGH!!! I am totally, utterly, completely devastated, mortified, disgusted…
It’s like, I felt like I lost part of my manhood. It is so humiliating.

As the day went on, Andrew and Kev tried to assure me that I looked alright and it will be better after a few days. But we all know whether it is nice or not…

For the next few weeks, I’m going to have to hide under the cap or something that can cover my forehead so as not to disgrace myself in public. I feel like I am this dark little (since I am tan and short) queen with queeny eyebrows. (No offence to the queens out there. I do respect you.) I have turned into a sissified version of Jonathan. I do wish my dear brows would grow back fast… I am missing them already. I am never ill-treating them again.

P.S. Laugh at me and the next moment, a chopper will soon follow…

The one with loosing grip...

Its getting so tough and so hard. It doesn’t seem to want to stop. It just kept coming one after another. I wonder who can actually take so much of these and not break.

I am breaking but I can’t…

The past few nights, sleep hasn’t been something I could achieve even though it may seem like hours and hours of lying in bed. I feel so weak and it seems like all my strength and energy have left my body. Furthermore, today I had a long day at work. Facing students and parents hour after hour, I had to put on a mask to the world, it never seemed to end... Most of all, my boss is here today and that didn’t help either. I felt like giving up and just leave. But the thing is, I don’t want to give up at all.

‘Things will never be the same again’… the sentence echoed inside my head constantly causing intense migraines and headaches that never ends. I am fed up as well. I want a happy and simple life too. But who doesn’t? Everyone can claim that but how to go about achieving it?

I had a chance of visiting some friends in KL during last week. I had lots of fun and life in KL is actually rather relaxing. I didn’t realize that I would like it so much and I wouldn’t even mind staying there. But at the same time, when I was there, I realized something I miss a lot back home. When I left KL, I thought things would be different but I didn’t realize it would be that different.

It was a life changing week. I hope the following week, things would be better and I hope to get a pleasant surprise…
