Fairy Tale vs Reality
I’ve dreaded it, I dread it, and I will dread it forever.
That is past, present and future tense mash up of how I feel about my going away again next month.
They told it its no big deal. But what do they know? Just take a month in my place and the experience will speak my heart out through psychological torture no sane being can endure.
(Yes, Terry is insane. The sort of insanity that involves alot of kindness and a genius brain)

I’ve been doing some read-ups on fairy tales on Wikipedia.
Disney had real talent in doing cover ups into lovely tales that ALWAYS *roll eye* end with a happily ever after.
♣ Did you know that it took Disney 6 million to make Sleeping Beauty, but only return a revenue of 3 million?
♣ Did you know the real Pochahontas died in the ship due to ilnesses and never reach England shore?
♣ Did you know the real Princess Anastasia did not escape? She was killed along with her sisters, mother and the last Tsar, her father.
♣ In an older variation, Sleeping Beauty was raped, instead of being kissed from her slumber.
Anyway, click this cool lil’ princess something link I’ve gotten from Geekologie this morning for some real awesome Disney princess picture meets boom boom pow. Reality bites, ouch.

On the other note, did I mentioned that when I was a kid, I told mom that I wanna be a princess one day?
Mom told me unless I marry a prince, I can’t.
Naturally, I said that I’d want to marry a prince one day.
She said that it don’t seemed like a good plan unless I intend to convert into muslim.
*pause*
… Now that I’m a grown up, I don’t see what’s so bad about being muslim. I mean, its such a wonderful religion. And by ‘wonderful’, I meant it by referring to this, this and this article.
If mom hadn’t put it into a tone that sounded like a threat, I could be a widowed permaisuri by now, sleeping in slim wrap during the day, stock check on my shoes on evenings and have Jet Li look-alikes smotherin’ me in Cream de La Mer before bed.
And I don’t have to dread going to Singapore next month.
*sigh* Life…

Yea, at least this one’s not Muslim right? It doesn’t matter actually. But ofcos, it’ll be better if I can find a totally non-religious Prince.
Oh wait, I’ve found one. kekekeke~ And he’s alr mine.
