It was on the news that a certain very well known female star orginating from Singapore attended a prize presentation cermony, AND, despite being SICK, and she still managed to clinch THE award!

Now now. Reality check. What has being sick when you attend a Prize Presentation Cermony? Is being at a Prize Presentation Cermony so physically or mentally demanding that it has to be reported that she managed to clinch THE award DESPITE being sick?

Lets see how demanding attending a prize presentation cermony was. Basically she just sit there, straining her ears, trying her damnest not to fall asleep (it will be very embarrassing if she was snoring away in her seat when her name was called on stage). And then when her name was called, all she has to do is to stand up, smile, fight that dizzy swirling feeling in her head, while at the same time mentally plotting the best route to the stage that avoids as many people who would hinder her progress to the stage by standing up, smiling at her, and hugging at her, as possible. Then she start walking towards the stage, encounter a few humane obstacles that she no doubt could not avoid, and arrive at the stage. She then walk to the centre of the stage, pick up her award which apparently weights only a little more than a family pack of potato chips, and smile happily at the audiences. The media makes performing the simple tasks above while being sick (most likely just a light cough, flu, or sore throat) sounds like an impossible task that only our heroic star can perform, and is full of praise and admiration for her attending the cermony to collect her prize while being sick.

Turn the camera around and look at people watching the TV. My mother has to go to work despite having a very high fever and wobbly legs, because there is no one else to do her job. My sister still have to study even if she was having diarrhea and can’t even walk for a metre without kissing the floor. I still have to SERVE Singapore and run around the parade square when my arms were hurting like hell from the previous day’s training (can’t blend them more than 90degrees, if I do I’ll scream with pain).

All these woo haa about stars doing silly and simple things while they were sick, makes me sick. Bleh!

Note: So what’s up with the BOLD, you may ask.
Nothing’s up. I’m just experientmenting. Saw some blogs bolding words in their entries here and there, so I thought I’ll give it a try and see how it turns out.
