far from sophistication
Nope. I haven’t watched Memoirs of a Geisha. This feeling of abhor began as early as her crouching tiger hidden dragon days and it’s not that she acted poorly or said something mean. I do not have a personal vendetta against her but yet deep down harbour an innate negative feeling that escalates whenever I see her on screen. It’s almost like acne, it doesn’t bother me that much when I don’t look at the mirror, but when I do.. I just wanna rid it! Squeeze it to death!
Last night I was watching the televised Golden Globe awards show, Miss ZYZ had her fair share of camera attention; she looked poised and confident dressed in a lime green designer gown, shedding all traces of her humble beginnings as a poor china girl. Despite that, I still felt an irrepressible sentiment of embarrassment for her, like I knew she was gonna do something ungraceful (like how she always try to “speek inkgris” at award ceremonies only to end up making a fool out of herself).
And then it happened.
She flashed her toothy grin and did a victory sign, waving it like a pre-pubescent Japanese girl who’s about to have her snapshot taken.
*eyes rolling furiously*
Si bei sia suay. Somebody please shoot her.
