Mood: Yay!

You know…

Every time when I wish to quit something.. The minute I lash out whether by crying or throwing tantrums (or via blogging)… All of the sudden I feel I don’t ever want to quit.

… The day I bid farewell to PaperDiaries and you guys.. is the day I actually felt like blogging the most.

…

What the heck right!? <OAO>

Suddenly I am like — Screw the whole self-conflicts and just type away as usual!

As my dear friend Alicia W who told me to do what makes me the happiest, so as my fellow readers…

I guess.. blogging is still in my heart. <u__u>

[ . . . ]

With that said, expect more nonsensical posts from sheep!

This is Ms Aya writing to everyone once again and she has rolled out a red carpet for everyone to line up and each may slap me on my sheepish cheeks for announcing her dumb retirement.

Circle, Dan, Axile, Dino-chan, Alicias, IsaMiao, Bubuchacha, Pittan, Madq, Monkeyd, Evan, Pix, Owl, all the stealth ninjas — come! Apply natural blush on my cheeks! (Laughs)

Mood: Yippee with a big yawn

Hey-o everyone.

By right, sheep is supposed to retire from blogging and apparently a lot of you were sad about it. *Aw*

Well I am not here to eat back my words, though very tempted as I really love blogging and you peeps are so fun to meddle with. (Laughs)

Anyway right now I am here to announce that I’ve received an e-mail from imodelsholding. Another invitation, you say?

Nay…

They want to press charges on PaperDiaries because of my blog entry about them  → Click Here to read

The said e-mail which I received this evening. ↓

To which I replied ↓

Dear Dove,
I will not remove my blog post on your modeling agency.

In this blog entry, it started out as a question and curiosity about modeling agencies (such as yours) that operate alike, followed by information and testimonials I happened to find online, precautions and feedbacks from my readers.

Since I did come across your modeling agents, I decided to include your agency’s name, otherwise the information on my blog will be just as invalid as your additional reason regarding my post that was based on other sources and not entirely my own experience.

While it is true I did not go over to your office to fully witness and learn your agency’s operation, it is however my right to surf online and gather information about any agencies before deciding to commit myself — in which turned out I received nothing but negative remarks on your company.

And in defense of my readers and those who stumble onto such information, they deserve to know whether an agency is authentic as we are all very well aware of scams happening in all sorts of forms. (somebody has to get the information out there, nay?)

In other words, I viral the information I found, noted that I’ve seen your agents in Bugis and Orchard, and emphasized the safety and precaution steps for those who aspire to be models.

“I could be wrong about i Models Holdings since I’ve not personally been for the interview. This entry is based on what I’ve found online and if you have landed on this post through search engines, then it must mean you are also seeking for information regarding this subject — In other words, it’s just like what I’m doing — Scouting for information before making any moves.

All in all, this entry is directed to agencies that could turn out to be scams or at the very least — misleading in their promises. I’m mostly trying to stress the point about keeping your guards up to such approaches.”

As quoted above from my blog post, I believe I am being very fair in my research and have urged my readers that they may go for your try outs with a promise of being careful and wise.

Do know, prior to releasing this blog entry to the public eyes, I tried searching online to prove myself wrong about your agency but to no avail. Until today, all I read is ‘scam’.

Your ill reputation were reconfirmed by my readers (some of your former recruits) in my comment’s section. I cannot force them to apple polish your operation; everything is as it appears and many were not happy with your agency apparently.

I bet you, if I were to have attended your interview and was gravely dissatisfied with your service, I would come home and blog about it and your agency will find a way to penalize me somehow. So please do not give the excuse that blogging and spreading information I’ve found is not valid and usable hence should be removed.

I know your company is trying to defend the reputation however requesting to remove people’s opinions on your company will not help. My readers and myself — we do not fancy fibbing.

For now, this is my defense and I stand by it.

Mood: Gleeful but hungry~!

We are taught never to judge a book by its cover for appearance can be misleading and surprises unfold. One’s heart may not be as beautiful as the face and a plain exterior may very well have the most exciting personality that others can only hope for.

Nobody enjoys being judged critically based on appearance alone because we believe we are worth more than what meets the eye. Additionally, it is rude and discriminating to form assumptions according to one’s look.

You would be upset if somebody thinks you’re immature and an incapable adult just because you have a childish face or that you don’t stand out as a pretty being in which people concludes that you are a loser with no greatness in presence.

In every way, we are not pleased if people were to judge us according to our exterior — especially when they get us at the wrong angle! (Laughs)

Although we do our best to refrain from being so judgmental, we still commit this act rather shamelessly, which brings me to wonder…

“How do you judge a book by its cover?”

What is it that you sought after in a person’s face to tell you if he or she is a pleasant or a menacing individual? <.__.>

Is it by their outward presentation; the way they style their hair? The clothes they wear? Does the way a person smile affects your thoughts and feelings for them?

There are many signs and things to look out in a person that helps us to give an idea or pre-warn ourselves what kind and how an individual might turn out to be.

Personally, I used to hate it when people make assumptions about my persona. A number of people thought I was an evil snub and that I’m anything but a Chinese (which I really am a Chinese!). Or that I look older than my actual age and… <-__-> .. a few other stuff.

However I came in terms that I cannot stop people for assuming based on my looks therefore what you can do is, as you may have already been taught — Prove them wrong. <^-^>/ (Laughs)

I admit, I do judge people by their looks and I’m not ashamed of doing so because I always tell myself, “Hey! You could be wrong — I hope you are wrong! This person could be a good person for all you know so please, give a chance!”

Do not jump to conclusions until proven to be true.

However my dear friends and readers, please…

I hope when you are judging people from their looks, do not judge by their natural born features.

That’s silly and you get nothing out of it.

How does having a slightly imbalanced eye width indicates that this person is a bad or good person? A slightly bigger than usual nose does not mean this person is a greedy pig just like a natural born wide doe eyes does not imply an everlasting innocence.

In other words, to judge you have to be wise and just. You read a person by their behaviors and the way they carry themselves — Not by picking natural born flaws and defects. That is so mean. <`A´>/

When you get careless and fall on your butt, does your friend give away that gentle and kind smile? Or does she have that sinister ‘Serve you right, biatch’ grin?

I guess that’s how we tell a person’s character? Or at least this is how I do it. <_  _>lll

… Am I doing this the wrong way… I wonder. <´•ω•`>

You tell me.. and the rest of us! (Laughs)

Oh, one last thing I would like to point out.

“You can’t judge a book by its cover” is quite a bullshit phrase if you ask me. We all wear ourselves on the outside one way or another. I believe we study a person’s attitude and genuineness through the way we present and carry ourselves outwardly (i.e the way we dress, take care of our hygiene, speak, body language…).

It’s just that I think it’s ridiculous to read and make assumptions based on birth features such as how beautiful blue eyes are, small and cute noses, high cheeks, freckles — how silly. <=__=> There are no stories in those, really! (except scars and wounds)

Well then…

How do YOU judge your book covers, darlings? <´•ω•`>

P.S! MUST READ~! ↓
