my blog is having a high hit rate today. guess everyone is looking out for this post!

So, here you go:

The Miss Singapore Universe 09 competition has finally marked its final last night.

Our new Miss Singapore Universe 2009: Rachel Kum

Congratulations dear~ Do us proud at Bahamas in August!!

So, the top 5: Cheryl, Rachel, April, Jeanine, Emiko.

1st runner up: April
2nd runner up: Cheryl

Me and emiko received only a bouquet of flowers, which went missing when during the after-party. darn.

we reported at 12 noon for rehearsals and started makeup and hair at 3pm. You know, makeup and hair plays an important role too. At the very least, they should not go wrong. Even if you can speak well, walk well, but with a wayang makeup and hairdo, it just ruins everything.

I was freaking out just before the show started because my makeup and hairdo went wrong! The eyeshadow was extremely thick and they simply slab on more each time they tried to salvage it. In the end, I went on stage with a whole lot of glitter. So much that my eyes couldn’t be seen on stage.

The hair was disastrous. The curls didn’t suit my hair. It made me looked like from the 60s. My mom gave a bad comment on it too. Hai.

Pardon for the photos. I didnt take any behind the scenes photos. And my parents sat too far away from the stage. That’s why the photos are so blur. Am waiting for the official photos to be out.

The 1st segment was casual, by Harley Davidson. It was a non-judging round. We had to dance at the back while each girl took their solo walk.

2nd segment was bikini. Here’s Sya, Gina & April.
(*Sya, you looked gorgeous with long hair!)

Emiko, me & jaceyln. (I love my red shawl!)

Last, the evening gown. Hayden chose them accordingly to our personality.

But i don’t feel my gown suit me well.. it made me looked big and stumpy?
Anyway, i received lots of compliments on my gown.

Top 5 Question & Answer Section

Cheryl did really well for the Q&A.
Qns: Would you date a guy much younger or older?
Ans: Age is not a factor to me. What matters most is his size. It must be big. And what i’m referring to, is the size of his heart. The bigger, the better!

My question was: Should a Beauty Queen be seen smoking or drinking to drunk at a party?
Obviously no. Not only it destroys her image as a beauty queen, it also reflects negatively on the cause she represents.

emiko got the tricky one. What’s the biggest lie you have told and why?

Cheryl receiving her 2nd-runner up..

she invited a lot of relatives and friends who turned up with:

Miss Singapore Universe 2009

Top 3… (hmm, somehow they looked the same height in this photo.)

I didn’t felt much during the top 5 segment.
If you didnt know, the missology forum had predicted the results.
Winner: Rachel
1st runner-up: April
2nd runner-up: Cheryl
In top 5: Jeanine, Emiko

When Glenn announced Cheryl, Rachel and April. I was praying that it’s not gonna be me. But Glenn called out my number. I was totally stunned. And I knew Emiko was definitely gonna be the 5th one.

Everything was spot on! It still feels like a dream.

At the after-party, Emiko, Errol, Ethel and Me..

Now, MSU has come to an end for me. There’s might be some other activities or initiatives going on in future. Hopefully we girls can work out sth soon.

Next up for me will be Miss Earth Singapore. I really want to do some green activities. And Miss Earth is very much meaningful. I’m so excited about the activities lined up. But i’m not sure if i’m able to go through the whole pageant thingy again. Let’s see how it goes~
