Wow, this blogger absolutely takes my breath away. Sheā€™s so beautiful! And read this interview about her getting signed on by a modelling agency. Way to go, girl!

Sheā€™s going to make it big, Iā€™m telling you.

With that sort of ethereal beauty and down to earth humility, who wouldnā€™t like her? I want to see her appearing on my television already! Now!

Oh, and I want her porcelain skin too!

And the best thing is she need not look like an overdone bapok!

Wow, just realised Suan too thinks sheā€™s cool. Seeā€¦sheā€™s going to be big! I want to be president of her fan club. Donā€™t fight with me.

I bet the campaign is a personal vendetta!

Is it, is it not?

Honestly, I find it difficult to answer to that. She has definitely prompted me to start the campaign, but all she was to me was just a moment of clarity. Does her 0.2% involvement in this campaign makes it a personal vendetta againts her? If it does, then yes it is personal.

Hereā€™s my take.

Xiaxue has been asked again and again to tone it down but no, she has to justify it with the most juvenile reasons conceivable. And then fish for sympathy.

All it took was a simple ā€œSorry, what I said was callous and insensitiveā€. No plus no minus, and all these would not have happened.

Itā€™s great that youths have their own opinions and stand by them, but not when theyā€™re so utterly skewed from common sense. Call me a sentimental fool, but I do intend to see the next generation in an honourable light. Oh yes, I believe in raising kids with a cane. What the hell, why donā€™t you call me a child abuser now?

Itā€™s exactly the people who have responded again and again with nitpicking (ie: that Iā€™m attacking her income, Iā€™m jealous of her looks, etc) that this campaign continues to prove its worthy existence. I wish these people would take a break and look at the significance of this campaign instead of polluting it with trivialities.

She is mass media. Anyone with half a brain ought to know that you should never believe everything you read from mass media. Unfortunately, thatā€™s not how reality is. Thatā€™s why mass media are propaganda tools. Xiaxue is a propaganda tool per se, only it propagates extremely distasteful and unnerving ideas.

In the end, successful or not, the least this campaign has done is to show that it doesnā€™t pay to be so irresponsible. In this case, with words.

I would have done the same if sheā€™s a fellow Malaysian, less successful and less pretty.

And I honestly canā€™t comprehend how people could be so naive as to think that two relatively successful companies would drop their treasured ambassadors over ā€œoutburstā€ by two relatively insignifant bloggers. Peter and I are not magicians, you know. Iā€™m born and bred in KL and hell the closest Iā€™ve ever been to any voodoo-ish experience is having a toe spasm. I thought a ghost pinched me lah..

Personally, what she wrote and believes in send goosebumps to my skin, and I dare say Iā€™m not the only who feels the same way.

On another note, part of this campaignā€™s spirit is stemmed from the fact that Iā€™m anal when it comes to corporate conduct. I donā€™t give a damn how you do business, but when you irk people now thatā€™s just bad management.

Itā€™s understandable that people think going after her sponsors is not very nice. Hell, even I wouldnā€™t want people to deprive me of my income. But sheā€™s the very person that is destroying her (hopefully not only single) source of income. Hello, sheā€™s a public figure, and if sheā€™s going to put herself out there to be picked apart then itā€™s her undoing. The world does not owe her a living, if she wants to live on her endorsement deals, she better well fight harder to defend them.

What the hell, itā€™s my blog. Sound awfully familiar?

And I want to say this to all the peeps out there who believe me and Peter are conspiring against poor Xiaxue. I only found out about Peterā€™s emails (which I think are perfectly appropriate) after I made my campaign button and vice versa. Our conscience are as clear as KYā€™s koi pond.

Anyway, personal or not personalā€¦.bla bla bla

Do I look like I care? Iā€™m just someone who believes in something and blogging about it.

To JohnLim who said that he will fire my company, be my guest. In actuality, Xiaxue should hire me as her PR manager.

And on KennySia whoā€™s been going around saying that I shouldnā€™t have used the word ā€˜bitchā€™, tell meā€¦should I have used the word ā€˜poodleā€™ then? All in all, it was said on impulse and will it make you see the big picture if I apologised to Poor Xiaxue that I called her bitch? Then I will apologise to Xiaxue for calling her a bitch, if itā€™s going to make you see better. Sorry, Xiaxue for calling you a bitch.

Iā€™m still behind on my paper. So much reading to do. I wish I were a real MENSA genius.

Post Mortem: KYā€™s birthday.

Iā€™m bored out of my skull. Let you in on a secret, I donā€™t have classes on Monday and Friday. So I have 4 free days. Would you like to sink an axe onto my chest now?

I had wanted to post pictures of how we punkā€™d KY on his birthday. But Iā€™m at a friendā€™s place and I couldnā€™t find his card reader. Sienā€¦

Basically, God took the birthday boy out for some celebratory lunch, then we (Erna, Sotong, FA and I) snuck into his room and stuck post-its all over. Yes, on every bottle of liquor, bed, chair, walls, closet, figurines, laptop, lamp, floor, table, dirty laundry, pictures and many more. Our creativity manifested in slogans such as ā€œSperm stainā€, ā€œSuper yellow sperm stainā€, ā€œStop wanking, you pervertā€, ā€œStolen brasā€, ā€œSex toysā€ and many more. Iā€™m guessing he had a field day removing the labels.

After that, we adjourned to Chiliā€™s Bangsar, in which I scored my second lousy experience, after this one. Basically, the manager had some trouble admitting that heā€™s stupid. Should have asked for his name and publicise it here! Cā€™mon, if your customer comes to your restaurant during happy hour and have been ordering ā€˜Screwdriverā€™ 8 out of 10 times, wonā€™t you have guessed sheā€™s doing it because she thought theyā€™re 1/2 the normal price? Wonā€™t you have the decency to recommend to your customer that by ordering ā€œvodka orangeā€ instead of ā€œScrewdriverā€ that sheā€™ll be entitled to 50% discount (although itā€™s rather dumb, he could have just charged them as vodka orange instead)? But this dumbass of a manager hadnā€™t the intelligence to do so, refused to apologise, talked as if weā€™re trying to leech off their alcohol collection (when we had almost RM400 worth of food and drinks on our table) and the most baffling of all, he agreed that all this while, every Chiliā€™s outlet in Klang Valley has not been operating correctly.

ST: So youā€™re telling us that every Chiliā€™s in 1U, Mid Valley and KLCC has been doing the wrong thing by charging us 50% discount for ā€˜Screwdriverā€™ during happy hour?

Dumbass manager: Yes.

All of us: *Rendered speechless and stared at him*

Thatā€™s customer service for you. And to whoever Chiliā€™s PR exec who is reading this, we were there on Saturday between 3pm and 6pm.

Smart people like all of us *cough* do not allow stupidity to dampen our day. So Suan and Jaime summonned the banana chocolate cake and weā€™re all giddy again.

After that, we went to Teluk Gong for some good olā€™ seafood. The place is called ā€œFlower Coconutā€, I think. Two tables and 6 dishes each. All food served in less than 15 minutes and there were even complimentary fried buns and fruits.

Now thatā€™s good customer service for you.

p/s: And yeah, my beloved friend Jaynaā€™s hospitalised for appendix removal. Do send her some love here. Love you, babe.
