Many a new things tried.

Haha. Indeed. For myself, for friends, for Prelims. I tried new things.

Episode one. Talk about gayness.

Yeah, I know, I'm gay. But making a statement everywhere I go isn't what I do. But hell, the blue earstud on my RIGHT ear says it all, doesn't it. Did I hear earstud?! You pierced your ear!?

"It's real!? (touches. I flinch.) Oh my god, didi! Why? I'm going to faint. " --my encouraging sis.

"Aiyo. (gives a disgusted, WHY!? look) So ugly, do for what?!" -- my loving mom.

"(sincerely) What made you want to do this?" -- my concerned dad.

Cool family I've got. Well, never expected any positive remarks anyway, so it's fine I guess. It just blew over and since no one talks about it anymore, I don't need to put up defences any longer.

"Marcus, you pierced your ear argh?" --my nice churchies.

HAHA. 'course I did. I went on stage to interpret God's word right after. :D

Episode two. My shaved armpits.

Now this is funny. I got really sick of Richard III and decided to scrap the piece since I damn-right couldn't do it right. SO I wanted to do something I really loved, i.e. Greek, i.e. Agamemnon, i.e. Clytemnestra's rhesis after killing Agamemnon and Cassandra. Yay. And when I told J.Lo she was a lil'hesitant, but agreed. So I didn't bother and went on with it. It's the prelims. I want to do something I believe in!

Well, the piece requires me to raise my arms up and declaim, so ahem. Feedback from friends: shave the pits. And I did.

Lemme relate the experience to you. I feel utterly grossed out by it. Don't worry, I didn't cut a whole piece of skin off while shaving, so read on.

I took my sister's Veet Rasiera, supposedly blade-free (thank the Heavensssss) solution to LEG-HAIR. But I used it on my pits anyway. After practising my monologue with the stinkin'substance on (since I'm supposed to wait 3mins to 6mins), I used the plastic blade to shave off the hair. EWW!!!! The Rasiera works by breaking down the hair so it breaks off damn easily. And the hair just disintegrates into clumps. Gross. I almost vomitted - -the smell surely didn't help.

But after that I realised it was certainly fascinating how the hair just gets off, leaving QUITE a smooth plain. Well, I feel cooler, undeniably. In both senses of the word.

Well. Adventures and first-times. Fun eh?
