The end is near…

November 17th, 2009 by Melissa Faith Yeo

My exam’s tomorrow. My one and only paper for this semester. I can’t tell you how much I’m waiting to get this over and done with so that I can move on with the other areas of my life. I love studying, but sometimes it gets too… draggy…? Even so, I’m hoping to ace my paper. Actually, I’m hoping to ace all my subjects.

I may sound like a crazy over-achiever wanting such high grades. Well, yea I must admit that the sense of achievement thrills me. But I’m not only doing this for myself – I’m doing this for my dad too. See, my dad’s been paying for my education my whole life. And all my life, I was always the average student that blended in with the rest of the class. I never stood out academically, neither was I last in class (well, OK at least that’s comforting…). But I knew I was so only because I was a lazy, lazy student. So since I decided to befriend textbooks again, I told myself that I must want to do well and go all the way and even push myself. Or not, YET AGAIN, I’ll have quite a pointless school experience. Not to mention a waste of time and my dad’s money. Plus, it’s a degree I’m taking and it might be my last shot at studying again, so I believe it’s only fair to give it my all and finally put a smile on my dad’s face with my results.

That said, the end is also near for this competition! As most of the other contestants have already established in this blog, the finals are in just a week. Looking forward to it!!! I just had my fitting today and I’m loving what I’ll be wearing. :D

50 Gorgeous aside, the only other time I wore a BeBe dress was for E! Entertainment’s party at Dempsey’s Prime Society.

Nice huh? Too bad this dress was borrowed! loved it! Eunice Olsen too!

Our very, very admirable beauty queen. A great asset of Singapore.

Eunice Olsen approached me to ask where I got my dress from and told me how much she liked it etc… She was verrrrry friendly and in my opinion, one of the few to dispel the stereotype of pretentious celebrities.

Singapore's most deserving beauty queen there

Anyway, Rachel Kum brought me to the event. Read more of it here. Rachel’s now in Sri Lanka doing a charity fashion show. Awwww! :) Be safe, Rachel! Come back soon!

OK, I should go get ample rest for tomorrow’s exam. It starts at 10am and NO, I’m not a morning person. Haha. Please wish me luck! :)
