Awake

I entered a 3 bedded dark room with only an amber-coloured light bulb to illuminating the whole room. I was asked to lay back on a bed at the left-most in the room.

Then, they adjusted a white xenon light to a position which is just above my head to get a clearer view of me. The bright light from the xenon lamp blinded me momentarily......

They used 2 wet, fabric-like pieces of something to cover my eyes to protect them from the bright, eye-damaging xenon light.

No. The above scene was not about me in a surgery room. It will sounds like the movie 'Awake' if i continue to write this entry without explaining the truth. Actually i was in a beauty centre undergoing a 'facial' treatment because my acne problem had worsen. Since our look/face is priceless, my parents decided that it's time for me to get professional help.

In the beginning of the treatment, they applied a kind of gel on my face which feels cold and comfy. Then they applied a lot of skin product like moisturizer and revitalizer etc.

At first it was a comfortable experience, then in the end it became 'fun'! The professionals have to pinch and pull my face so that they can extract the blackheads from my whole face which they believe is the cause for my acne problem.

The process was very painful and i felt like i'm the main character, Clay, in the movie 'Awake' because i can't see what was happening around me!

It took me one agonising hour for the whole process and now, i have to use few kinds of face products (which doesn't come cheap) everyday so that my acne problem can get better. No sacrifices, no benefits, am i right? Sounds girlish? Well, it's for my future......

Later that day, i attended my cousin's wedding in Raub. As usual, everyone chatted, ate the foods and headed back home.

I saw a 10-years old cousin of mine playing with his Nokia N82. What a beauty! The lighting colour is white and it does make the handphone look classy.

With its dedicated gaming keys, gaming is just one step closer to perfection!

My new 'lineup'.
