Pre-shoot jitters

I'm a little jittery. I have a photo-shoot for the upcoming hymnal album this afternoon and a rehearsal tonight for another friend's album launch that I'm back up singing for. 

Jittery because I had a cup of steaming black coffee on an empty stomach. Q, a friend, said it helps to flush out water from the system and reduce bloating. And friend also insisted that I do a mask this morning for make up. Hmph, the things people do to look good for one silly day. 

Well, so far, today has been ok. Not too bloated. I can't do the whole protein sake thing without feeling starved and miserable. So I won't try. But I've been working out regularly for the past few days. 

I remember every formal shoot I've done and I've always been a little nervous because posing for photos is actually very tiring and it's a real skill. The first one was the worst.  I didn't know how to pose. I didn't know how to describe something I wanted. I didn't know what to wear (hence for the next shoot i hired a stylist. Trust me it's worth the trouble if you're not a fashionista. And the best thing about this shoot is there's a stylist and I don't have to pay for her).  It's a learning curve, even up till now. 

So I am now armed with 2 sets of Nu-bras, high heels and jeans, ready to head out. 

Till next time.

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

There is still a chance for the 71,849 single men

I opened my facebook profile and LO and BEHOLD, I saw a string of comments, wall comments and msgs in my inbox congratulating me about my 'not-single anymore status'. Why? Because I decided to remove the 'single' listing on my Facebook profile. I merely didn't want to post it up anymore. A whim that resulted in... HILARIOUSNESS! Here are a couple of samples: "Charis has been woozy since thursday, is it luvvve??" "huh? o_O? is there something i don't know??" "so when u going to belanja us all makan??? >. "heh.... really!?....there are 71,849 single men in brisbane who will be very dissapointed... very.." "is this for real .. if so, congrats charis :-)" "Hey great news to hear, Congrats loh! By the way who is the lucky Guy?" " Hey. No longer single? Share some news. ;) " Man o man!
