Dirty Or Not Dirty?
Friday, November 30, 2012
Today, I am blogging about an issue that has been bothering me for quite some time. It is a rather comical issue actually but I would just like to know your views and opinions about this matter.
IS THERE A NEED TO BATHE IN THE MORNING?
I don't know about you girls/guys out there but I usually wash my hair once a day and I usually do so in the night. So, I am pretty much very clean before I go to bed.
During the night, I sleep and maybe a drool a little here and there on my pillow but because of the fan and air-conditioning, nobody actually gets dirty or sweats a lot when they sleep right? So, we DO wake up clean? Am I right?
We practically did nothing in the night and just lay on the bed like a log. There was no contact with anything dirty except for maybe some mosquitoes flying around maybe?
So do you think there is a need to bathe in the morning? Or is it okay to just wash up, doll up, get dressed and than leave the house?
I heard people saying that not bathing in the morning is actually quite dirty but in what way is it dirty?!!! I don't wash my hair in the morning but I do take a shower but I am still very curious on whether there is a need to bathe in the morning. Comment below and let me know what you think guys!
On a side note, I have something else to say.
Words Go Round 2013 will be happening from 25th February to 9th of March next year! I will be one of the speakers for the English Programmes for students so if you want me to be speaking in your school, get your teachers known of this program and book now!
Get to know about this honorable event here : WGR 2013
The full programme can be downloaded from the website here : FULL PROGRAMME
Here's some self-shots of myself and my girls to end of the post beautifully!
The camo/military trend is kicking in and I love it! If you wanna sponsor me more camo/military outfits, please do! Hahahahah, I was just kidding there. I am not so "buay paiseh" okay?
Apparently, Hui Qi looks like she didn't sleep for 5 days. LOL
DOH-RAY-MEEEEEE
A decent shot, at last.
Comment below on what you want me to blog about next. OR, you could tweet me at @JoleneSnow.
Have a good weekend you all! Xoxo.

How thick is thy skin?
Wednesday, November 28, 2012
Today, I am blogging about the thickness of people's skin or apparently, how "buay paiseh" someone can get. "Buay paiseh" can also be loosely translated as "not afraid to be shy".
I know of popular bloggers who gets sponsored for so many different items and they are paid to do advertorials for various items. They are bloggers like XiaXue , QiuQiu and Kay Kay.
I chanced upon this on gumtree and I was in shock!

The girl is only 15 years old. I am not saying that a 15 year old cannot be a blogger/ and I am also not saying that she cannot ask for sponsors a the age of 15. Okay, don't get me wrong. What I am saying is that how thick-skinned can a person get? This is just my own curiosity I am not judging on anyone or talking about anyone.
My friends all claim that I am one of the most thick-skinned person they ever know. I always tell them that I am the prettiest, the cutest, the smartest etc etc. But they know all of it is just for laughs and I was purely joking. There is a thin line between confident and over-confident. I know of people who blatantly am too over-confident. Sometimes James is like that too =D
If I post photos of my ugly teeth here and than painstakingly go all out to ask for sponsors to sponsor me braces, is that possible? Now now now, you all will start saying "Your teeth is already so nice, what more changes do you want to do to it?!!"
My teeth are all very small. Really really small. My 2 front rabbit teeth juts out a little and the bottom ones are all messed up. Who doesn't yearn for straight teeth right? I am sure everyone wants them! I still remember when we were young, when our tooth fall off, the adults will ask us to stand by the window and than throw the tooth out to make sure that the new tooth will grow straight. I don't know if it is just me or have you guys done the same too? But obviously, it doesn't matter now because my teeth didn't grow out straight. I have really yellow teeth :( I used to be a really heavy smoker in the past but even after I quit, my teeth still remained yellow because I am a pretty heavy coffee drinker. I have to drink coffee everyday or I would feel like the living dead(which is pretty stupid because obviously the dead can't feel anymore)... Am I blabbering now? Gosh.
Look at this photo. My teeth looks SO awesome and nice as long as the bottom teeth can't be seen. The rabbit teeth is quite cute right? No? (Thick-skinned level : Jolene)
I always try to smile in a kind of posture so that my bottom teeth cannot be seen but in that way, the smile is not natural anymore!!!
My naked face and my mental guy.
Sometimes it looks a little awkward but I am still cute what right! Don't tell me cute means ugly but adorable okay. Cute means adorable, no ugly.
AND HERE COMES THE PHOTO OF THE DAY. My very ugly teeth. Small, cute and well a little messy. Please ignore the caffeine stains and whatever acne scar is on my chin. I know that if I don't mention it, you all won't be looking at it right now.
I AM STILL CUTE, at the end of the day :D
Does any dental surgeons want to sponsor me braces now? In return, I will....... HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA, okay, I am totally kidding here.
This post was not to describe anyone so if anyone got offended by my post, well, not my problem!
Thank you for reading guys! Xoxo.

93.8 Live, The WOW Club with Michelle Martin!
Hey guys! Here I am blogging about my first ever experience on radio! A dear follower on my Instagram actually told me to blog soon and instantly, I felt so bad because I had been so lazy and always being very pessimistic, telling myself that actually no one reads my blog.
Thank you to all who bothers to pop by here every now and than for updates! All of you are too kind please.
Yesterday, 27th November, was a pretty awesome day because it was my first time being on a radio and on a LIVE talk show!
I left for the studio pretty early but this cab driver totally trolled me big time today! I was at the opposite side of this driver and I hailed for him to stop. He did and he waited at the side. It took me awhile to actually cross over because there were so many cars and I wasn't at a traffic light. Once I crossed the road and reached BEHIND the cab, the driver drove away. I just stood there, stunned. Was he trying to be funny or did he just totally forgot about me in a split second? Possible? I didn't know whether to fume or to laugh, seriously!
Upon reaching the 93.8Live studios, I met up with Michelle Martin and oh my, she is absolutely stunning! She's tall, sexy and so elegant! She is so pretty that I was so star-struck! I kept telling her that I was so nervous but she chatted very cordially with me and made me feel very comfortable. It was so nice chatting with her!
She lead me very well when asking questions so that I could answer them briefly as well. She's so pleasant to me and we even chatted about BJJ and Muay Thai! :) Ladies who practice Martial Arts are just so much more attractive huh?
The program went really great in my opinion except that I was stuttering for a few times. The feeling of being "LIVE" was just too overwhelming for me. I was afraid of saying the wrong words, the whole time. There was one part I was reading from my book and I said "better" instead of "bitter".
I've received many feedback and well-wishes from you all. Most of you said that I did well for a first timer on radio and I must say you all are really too sweet! Some even said that my voice was very sweet, seriously? I always thought I sounded kinda manly, really! Whatever it is, I thank you all for listening. For people who had known me through my book and has not communicated with me in real life, you all can now finally put a voice to my face! :)
I hope I can have more interaction with my readers very very soon!
Here's the podcast of the "Live" show with 93.8 Live so if you have missed both the 2 pm and 11 pm slot, you can still listen to it here!
Jolene on The WoW Club on 93.8 LIVE with Michelle Martin !
Also, I really really love it when readers of "Jolene's Story" tag me on Facebook or tweet me after they have finished reading my book. I appreciate all honest feedback and reviews of the book. Best of all, I am more than happy to know that I have inspired you guys in one way or another. Feel free to write to me anytime!
She is absolutely stunning isn't she?

Singapore Writers Festival 2012
Thursday, November 22, 2012
Before I start my post about Singapore Writer's Festival, I would like to say a BIG BIG BIG "Thank You" to everyone who has bought a copy of "Jolene's Story" and has supported me all through this. You all are amazing and without you guys, all these would not have happened! I am so grateful to each and every one of you!
I have been receiving private messages from strangers who have bought and read my book and am full of encouragement and compliments for me, I am truly blessed to receive all of these!
On a side note, I just want to say that it really takes a lot to be a consistent blogger because I am the laziest person you may ever know and I would rather people be updated with my life via micro blogs like Facebook and Twitter (@JoleneSnow) !
Nevertheless, I am still here to jot down one of the most memorable event of this year!
"SINGAPORE WRITER'S FESTIVAL 2012"
Everything must first start with a cam-whore shot right so let this be the grand entrance =D
This was the #OOTD. Wearing my new ribbon-printed dress for the first time! I think it looks gorgeous!
When I was first told that I will be attending this event, I felt so honored and my nerves were literally jiggling! After all I am just a new local writer and my book has just been launched on November 2nd! I never expected all these! =)
The moderator for the panel discussion that I was speaking for was super nice and she was so reassuring whenever I said that I was afraid I would clamp up due to anxiety. Ms Alison, my savior!
I tried my very best to be cool as cucumber but this was my VERY FIRST public speaking you know! How can I never be all jittery? I was on a Panel Discussion with such cool people like Jeremy, Lucas and Sharon Ismail! I love her acting in Code Of Law! She's all cool and chilled all the time!
Signing a book for a fellow budding author! Know more about her here! She's a writer of 2 malay novels!
Link here : Nirrosette Official !
DID YOU SEE HOW CRAZILY HAPPY I LOOKED?
One of my favourite author : Neil Humphreys actually bought my book and asked me to sign it! I was so happy, so excited and I was fangirling like crazy. I know there may be no such word called "fangirling" but you get my point right?
Without her, I wouldn't have achieved what I have today. I love you Mummy!
The girls! They gave me a sunflower, too sweet!
Most beloved boyfriend who has a chapter in my book - James Liu.
Thank you to all of you who was there! Much loves!
Although the sunflower has died but the memories and the thoughts stay with me forever!
Ending the post with my face again!

Next are photos with my beloved babygirls... June and Hui Qi! If Amanda was not in Finland, I am sure that she will be here with us as well.
I am so thankful that my girls were there for me during this event to calm my nerves and just make sure I am cheery and happy all day long! They even wrote me a very sweet card and also bought me a HUGE and LOVELY sunflower! So much love, how can I not be touched?
