Serious Me
They shoulda put this pic instead!
It’s not fair. I have loads of smiley shots that night. How come this pic was chosen instead?
A friend said that the look justified that one-liner comment I made about ‘uncivic-minded Malaysians’.
And I also got misquoted for something. Now I know why some people prefer to say “No comments” to the media.
Gah :P
Ironically enough, the one person that I hoped would not notice my face appearing in the papers was the first person who told me about it.
“Hey, saw your face in the papers this morning,” said my boss cheerfully. “So, you are a member of a book club, eh? Didn’t know that your English name is Ariel!”
Aieeeee!

(I wondered why she looked so familiar)
Oh nooooo….
wah i was away for a little while and you made it to the papers!?! :)
(looking serious oi~)
Woohoo! You were in the papers! But yeah, you look so very the serious in that pic man. I vote the spoon pic any day LoL
I know! I hate my pic too! Of all the pix they took that night, why this one? Why why whyy?!
And I was misrepresented too. Grrr….!
I hate it too! I feel so cheated to just be a filler for the book rental place. I thought it was going to be a full on BookCrossing thing with at least the next event being promoted! The writer must have been really ill that day, like she said to have misquoted so many people.
I can’t remember if I wanted in the article or not. Not sure if I wanted to keep the clipping or not also. :)
Regardless, I’m good with the outcome :P
Alicey, what to do… had to keep myself occupied while you were away mar :P
Merv, I dunno which is worse – not appearing in the papers or appearing looking so serious like that :P
Betty & Rapunzel, my commiserations. Sigh.
Synical, yalor – how come you weren’t in the pic wan??
So sorry to hear that you were misquoted, dearie! :(
Thanks, dearie.. I guess the writer was really sick that day..
