So pretty!
Finally! Look what I downloaded... Isn't it shamelessly gaudy and pink? I LOVE IT!
A PINK THEME!
For years Mozilla only gave us stupid blue boyish themes that for some reason all made my pc look like a mac. FOR WHAT?! I like my pc!
This is so nice! :D
Here, for you girlies. Don't say I never share hor!
By the way, anyone knows how to edit a downloaded Mozilla theme? I actually went to read up on it and I can't find the appropriate .jar file. Man, I am such a geek sometimes. Frightens myself.

In defence of plastic surgery
I was moderating the comments for the post with Dawn's and my photo, and the more I read, the more pissed I feel.
It is pretty apparent by now and she and I are friends, so I don't see why it is necessary for stupid readers to compare her and me. If you think she is pretty and I am ugly, then just compliment her la, why must you put me down while complimenting her?
Vice versa of course.
And the plastic surgery issue is so long ago over. People are still asking me if she did surgery.
By now the answer still not obvious meh? So she did (I am presuming from old photos), so what man?
It's her face what, you her mother ah? She wanna do anything to it also can.
I cannot understand people who talk so much about natural beauty. You know what I think? FUCK NATURAL BEAUTY. Don't brush your teeth lor! Cannot put braces! CANNOT DYE YOUR HAIR!
Coz if you do any of that, it's not natural beauty anymore!
Please don't say things like "Xiaxue has natural beauty, Dawn doesn't".
Firstly, I already announced very loudly many times that I edit my photos, and I cannot reveal my secrets la, but it has to do with making my nose smaller and my jawline firmer *blush*. Damn I just revealed it.
So I am no natural beauty on this blog.
Even if you saw me in real life and think I'm pretty, what's so authentic about foundation, fake eyelashes, and loads of mascara?
FACE IT LA. Everyone is fucking fake. Who can be all natural? I know who... Ugly people.
You say these girls, plastic or made up, are cheating the world with their looks.
But I ask this: What's stopping you from doing the same? Lack of talent in putting make up? Or lack of money to do surgery?
If you had loads of money and your surgery is RISK-FREE to confirm make you more beautiful, you don't want meh?
My point is... It is fair competition! If you are a girl and not happy with the boys thinking Dawn is so hot, then fucking go do surgery yourself.
Defending your own ugliness by defending the lameass "natural beauty" just reeks of your jealousy.
So you are ugly but filled with natural beauty (ha, ironic). WHO CARES? Who goes on magazine covers and fucks the hot models? NOT YOU, NATURAL BEAUTY AMBASSADOR.
In one disappointing movement, I am hereby announcing that if I ever had the chance to, I WILL GET A NOSE JOB!
Of course, I will honestly tell everyone I did surgery la. Ha! At least a bit authentically fake.
As for the photoshop, I just did my usual nose-adjusting and a bit of jaw pushing, that's it. Why should I photoshop for Dawn too? I think she looks fine. Plus, I am not close to her and have no idea whether she likes people tinkering with her photos.
It was ME to asked Dawn to take a photo with me, and she does not deserve getting so much flak in my blog's comments for that.
My blog reader Cedric helps me moderate comments too, so it's not like I can screen all the comments myself.
Just be nice la, ok?

I demand interesting advertising!!!
Click to enlarge
Jack in the Box is one of America's largest fast food chains, and it has SUPERB advertising!!!!
The copy is so freaking funny!!
I liked it so much that I actually folded it, put it in my bag, and flew it 22 hours back here! I wet it a bit at the edge though... Hehe...
I wish we have this kinda interesting advertising in Singapore. You think Singaporeans will like a sense of humour in our ads?
Sometimes I think Singaporeans are too freaking uptight (I.e. Stomp readers throwing a big fuss over vulgarities), but it seems like many of us appreciate humour too!
Anyway, this is not another bout of Singapore-bashing just because I went to US. I'm just complaining about everything under the sun as usual, and I still love Singapore, just that I hate all of the fucking anal people staying in here.
And maybe also hate the Advertising people coz they mostly suck. Remember the nice Prudential ad a long time ago? The boy growing up one? That was nice! Wonder what happened to these talented people... Wonder how that bespectacled handsome model looks like now?! Anyone knows him?!!
MAN I HATE PEOPLE WITH NO SENSE OF HUMOUR! Anyway, Jack in the Box. Funny. Uptight Swiss people! HAHAHA.
p/s:
I'm conducting a dating experiment for a new project I'm working on right now, and I'm looking for volunteers interested in being my date for the sake of science. Ok not really science but it's for a good cause lah.
If interested, please email me with "Dating Experiment" in the subject line, your contact info and a short intro about yourself. If you have a picture, all the better. It will be fun! Email me ok!

Thanks for the support!
Woah!
Thanks to everyone who bought pixels! You all are the best!
Anyway, the first 20 ads are already sold out, so from now on the 50% discount will be off.
However, as I am rushing to go out now, I will shut one eye hor, coz I am lazy to to change the settings.
SO!
If you wanna buy pixels, you better do it now before I change the settings! Last chance for a $50 link!
Anyway, I blogged on Stomp, so you can read that if you are bored.
One picture from the day we gave the car away at Plaza Sing:
CHIO!
Bye all!

Finally launched
Some of you might have noticed the pixel advertising banner on the yellow sidebar!
Isn't it great?
:D
This is the project I was talking about!
Anyway, to those of you who are not familiar, the idea of Pixel advertising first came from this very clever 22 year old British guy. His website is here, click it!
So anyway, pixel advertising, to those of you who are not familiar, is a fairly simple concept.
1 pixel for 1 dollar!
The Brit guy's website has 1 million pixels, and he sold all of them, so he is a millionaire now. *one stunned look*
Turodrique suggested to me a long time ago that I should consider putting a pixel banner on my sidebar.
He said that my site always has visitors, and unlike the Brit guy the ads won't be neglected after all the limelight has died down since he does not have content.
But this was like 1 year ago and nobody really worked on it.
Finally Mike did (for months!), and somehow he managed tosteal obtain a script from an open source and implement it here!
LOVELY!
Now I have sent emails to all interested advertisers asking them to buy a banner, so that's why you see I already have some clients, some of which are still pending. :)
(Maddox's ad is obviously just a sample, the space is reserved for Localbrand as a reward for Turodrique's brilliance, but T has yet to send me his banner...)
Now to the many many of you who have asked me to link you - HERE IS YOUR ANSWER!
Buy a pixel ad now while a 50% discount is still going on for the first 20 customers!
See the little square boxes? Each of them is 100 pixels and cost $50!
100 pixels is the minimum to purchase, but you can of course buy bigger spaces.
Submit a picture or graphic, your url and a little description of your site, and guess what?
YOU WILL BE LINKED FOR 6 WHOLE MONTHS!
You can do whatever you want with your ad of course, since $50 is so bloody cheap...
Can put a banner to ask people to support the Superband you like...
Or boyfriends can say they love their girlfriends, or even you can announce who your enemy is and call him a cow-fucker. But try not to get me into trouble lar...
It's very simple to do - just click on the link that says "Click here to get your own pixels!" and it will tell you everything you need to know.
Of course, if you don't have a paypal account and want to either send me a cheque or do a bank transfer, just send me an email telling me, and I will do the whole uploading and everything else for you. :)
Must purchase quickly now! If you are the 21st customer and onwards it will be a minimum cost of $100...
OEI, BUY LAH! Support support mah!
Maybe if I get more customers this can go on newspapers. :D
Isn't it great?

I love Las Vegas!
Photos of Las Vegas as promised before I go to bed!
Vegas is great! Everything is so wild and bright and vying for your attention!
It's possibly the best city in US for a holiday... Hotels are cheap and very pretty, and food is ridiculously cheap (think steak and lobster for $10.95), and there are nude girls and very handsome nude guys too! (Chippendales! Too bad Mike was around)
We stayed in Wild Wild West, slightly offstrip for around $200 only!
Man, the weather there was SCARY! Super super hot and dry enough for you to burst into flames!
I left my lip balm in the glove compartment and when I went to retrieve it a while later it MELTED! Totally liquified!
Dressing up for the event... :D
p/s: 5.53am drama at home. Clinton woke up to shower for school and got bitten by a centipede. I tried to trap it with Cloudy's food bowl but it escaped.
