Life’s a contradictory constant

I feel ugly.

Ok lesee..this is how I usually spend my day when I dont have shoots or shows to do.

10 - 12pm: Rice Ball Rehearsal (Just to sing two jingles, we took two freaking hours, 4 tehs and loads of laughs)

12 - 3pm: Catching up with Daph and Leslie..it was all about porn, sex, men and…well, men.

3 - 4pm: Casting at He Productions. Guess what, its a chinese kids drama and…they want to me to play the funny maid. Except, of course, this funny maid can speak chinese really well because she was in Taiwan for a year (what are the chances of that?!)

4 - 5pm: Casting at Emoxis…the casting person tells me that "In this scenario, you are supposed to accuse a colleague of stealing the office stationery. Basically just ad lib and go with the flow" Followed by some bright idea to.."accuse a colleague of stealing the stationery, suspecting that he used the very same stationery to murder someone. So proceed with caution"  Like WTF!!#%#?

5 - 8pm: Conked out on my parents bed, suffering from incessant drooling. Happens when im so tired I cant even support my mouth muscles. Yup.

8pm onwards…dinner, tv and loads of surfing, emails, reading casting notices, updating CV, sending out photos, scheduling and getting my GST credits.

As some of you would know, I am (have become) a sucker for make-up with nice packaging..and since I cant sleep anyway, I figured why not go to sephora.com and see what nice little gems I might find. In fact there were just too many!! So, here are some palettes that might suit some of my girlfriends (if they be happening to read this)

(4) The Im-So-High-Tech-Even-My-Make-Up-Folds-Out Palette: SUGAR MY BEST FRIEND PALETTE

(5) The Glamour-Puss Palette (complete with metallic sheen and gorgeous lettering): POUT SPOILT ROTTEN PALETTE

*absolute hair-twirling, unabashedly-giggling, eye-fluttering frenzy*

Ok, that was the end of my Girl Stuff post. Back to business *crack knuckles*

Thanks for tuning in to the afternoon edition of Issy’s News Hour. This afternoon, Issy is reportedly seated at her sofa at this very moment doing nothing but stoning and feeding herself utterly useless bits of information.

In the nether regions, there have been torrential bouts of diarrhoea in between bikini changes and on-stage shenanigans. It has been noted that this lack of control over bowel movements have led to very interesting, albeit funny, situations. More incidents to be dramatically recounted in person.

Weather-wise, there have been unexpected showers but generally things are on the up. Issy hopes that this fair bit of weather will continue, and that sunny days will follow. As she would say, "Shit happens; flip your hair and keep sashaying forward. AMEN"
