pageant reflections

Pageant is finally over!!!

quite glad it is over, and of course it is an experience that has left me with lots of reflections


and even though there's all the cliche about pageants being lame and contestants being stupid, i must say it's really an eye opening experience.

The whole process has taken quite a few months, and it's been quite a long and tiring journey. I'm still glad that i did it, and finished up the whole thing without quitting halfway. One thing off my checklist of To Dos!


With the other girls, I attended paintball, dance, grooming class, surfing and of course a whole lot of media events. It is quite an experience to constantly be filmed, photographed and interviewed. Although it is very stressful to constantly be watched and not sure when an unglam shot is caught. and i'm just a tiny fry in a small pageant. i can't imagine how those celebrities must feel.

I also met a lot of new people, some directly, like the other girls in the pageant and some indirectly, like photographers asking for shoots, random friend requests and messages and other people in this entertainment circle.

I learnt that money + connections = power. haha, pageants are very realistic. there's nothing wrong with it though, cos it's explicitly a profit making show, and so of course, i understand why.  it's just interesting to be in it and witness all the politics firsthand.



For me, one experience is enough i think. For now at least (:  had my fun and i'm done!

i'm currently banned from joining anymore pageants. hahaha, and anyway i dont think i want to do another right now.

but i won't say for sure in the future!

:p
