New view on beauty

3 May 2008, 11:30 pm. 3 Comments. Filed under Miscellaneous, Rants.

Last year, I looked down on fake cake faces. This year, I have begun to bow to the magnificent powers of professional make-up and Adobe Photoshop.

When you cut off a model/celebrity's access to godly photographing/photo-editing skills and knock off their powders, how many of them still look so stunningly mouth-gapingly attractive?

What's physical beauty nowadays? Fake eyelashes, fake boobs, million-dollar noses and what else? It's because you can't see at first instance into the inner content contained within this outer shell that physical appearances do matter so much to a certain extent. Pretty people do receive extra benefits. People often (at least) begin with treating good-looking people better. And hence, I've changed my views.

With the latest make-up technology, it makes no difference in the end whether the person had natural beauty initially or not. It is time to recognise that superficial beauty prevails over natural beauty at least in the short-term. It is time to succumb to routine face-caking and eye-painting sessions.

You know what? I don't like this world. Because I can't spare enough money for a full set of Chanel and Christian Dior make-up equipment, laser treatments and regular beauty therapy. So I'll just have to live with my flawed shell and get used to unfair treatment. Bottom-line: Money = Beauty. Once again, money makes the world go 'round dammit.

You guys are weak! Talk about being blinded and scarred by the last post! Well hey, for the more conservative of you, you won't like this post either. But trust me, it's nothing like watching it live three steps away from you.

Here's some eye-candy from our Law School Beauty Pageant 2008 while at camp. Let's roll out the contestants!

All the contestants On stage

Well, have a closer look.

Our group's beauty The Ginger something lady Horny male...

Sizzling, sizzling hot hour. Pole dance, lap dance, air humping... This is what it means to be part of the Auckland Law School. I have trouble imagining any of them as a famous barrister or judge ten years into the future though.

Failure made the climax of my day

I thought all grown males (at least through the Internet) would have become accustomed to such scenes under their own volition over their high school years? But perhaps modern males have not failed that far—yet.

A couple of years ago, searching "failure" in Google would produce something along the lines of George Bush for the first result. Today, though George Bush no longer grins back at the first instance as Google thinks "failure", the fun has not just yet ended.

Not far down the Google search results page for failure...

Google search result: www.failure.org

Me: *eyes brighten up* OoOoOoOoh
Boyfriend: Don't click it...
Me: *clicks*
...
*watches boyfriend run for his life (literally)*
*LOL*

Three hours later... That mischievous boyfriend of mine decided to pull the prank on his friends. So there I was, tapping f-a-i-l-u-r-e-dot-o-r-g into the address bar on Jason's laptop. But four guys at the table, and none of them wanted to tap the final "Enter" key. Eventually, Jason's own finger triggered the last step of the prank.

Before the page was fully loaded, one of the guys shut the lid of the laptop at the sight of... Mmm. Well, and there we were, a group of psycho-maniacs ROFL-ing at lime green and crap.
