MES

Hello there!

The Miss Earth Sabah 2012 is finally out posted in the official website of Miss Earth Sabah page a few days ago. Also, they have uploaded the new faces of the 12finalists of Miss Earth Sabah of this year. Have you given your favorite finalist a vote? HERE's the new faces of MES 2012!

Besides, I would like to thanks all of you, my beloved friends, siblings, loved one and not forgetting my teachers from high school/college who actually showed their very supportive side in helping me to share the Miss Earth Sabah photo of mine to their friends in fb! Although it is not the highest votes among the 12 finalist but i do really appreciate your effort to spare a few second to like and share it to everyone.

THANK YOU!!!

By the way, i just feel like sharing my thought here. Bear with me, just for a few minutes!! :)

The reason why i decided to join this pageant competition is not about vanity and also becoming famous, not at all. But i personally think that by joining this, i can get to give back a little to our society and help our earth from being destroyed. Throughout this competition, i believe i'll get to experience more and get a chance to involve myself in charity as they organise a lot of activities to give back to society. I always remember that, a woman is beautiful inside out and i always bear in mind that physical beauty can be temporary but inner beauty lasts. So this is my chance to shine but not for fame because i truly understand that the winning titles come with huge responsibilities for us to save our mother earth.

But of coarse, I wish I'd get a chance to get spotted and that may be my big break to stardom hohoooo..

So, do you think i deserve a vote? If it is a YES, here you go go go go...Xandria Ban :)

Till then.

What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger

The post title is just a lyric which randomly browses through my mind & something that motivates me recently.

Fyi, Stronger by Kelly Clarkson

This song really speaks to me 

Oh well, let's get started with some activities happened recently. Miss Earth Sabah 2012 will be on tour very soon, only in a few more weeks to go. I AM EXTREMELY THRILL ABOUT IT! Can't wait for the 1 week of pageant week, it sounds really fun and they will bring us to tour around to Manukan Island(where we will be having photohoot), Tamparuli upside down house, Zip Borneo(where we will have the opportunity to try out the lobgest flying fox in Borneo), Educational Tour to Poturidong Kiulu & we will have fish spa there and so on.. Fortunately i am not scared of height but i pretty enjoy outdoor activities thou!

This is why i get so excited instead of being nervous for the competition. I love being positive. More updates will be blogged about it soon!

The 12 finalist had our first photoshoot yesterday, in Seri Gaya Studio, which is also our official photographer for Miss Earth Sabah 2012. Also, our hairdo and makeup was done by MUAH Studio Academy.

curly hair

Aren't we look really different after the makeup & hairdo? Told you, makeup does really make someone look prettier. We started our makeup at 9a.m, sharp. And guess we actually used up almost third quarter of the day to makeup & touch up. After we were all done with makeup, we continue with our hairdo after our lunch.

By the way i had a curly hair for my photoshoot. I don't really like curly hair but blame my flat soft hair, and i had to curl my hair. Anyway, curly hair does really make my hair looks better. Hopefully, i won't look old in the pictures D: 

I trust you, photographers! Please don't disappoint me.

Isabelle & I

We camwhore like nobody business while waiting for our turn to set up our hair. And this is what we actually do especially me and belle:

CAMWHORE-----> CHECK THE OUTCOME-----> NOT SATISFIED WITH THE OUTCOME(yer i look so fat/angle problem&etc)----->DELETE PICTURE-----> RETAKE ONCE MORE-----> "AHHH NOT BAD, UPLOAD UPLOAD!!" 

Everyone used to think that we are related, we have the same hairstyle, long, straight and brownish hair. Maybe this is the reason why we always camwhore? HAHA picture memories & it says it all.

We have our goals and we are fighting for it!

Getting ready for group photo

This would be the outcome for the Miss Earth Sabah 2012 

Pictures will be revealed soon in FB, stay tuned

 remember to cast your vote to your favorite pageant!

Yesterday was a wrap celebrating Sue's birthday!! I thought none of her friends would throw a party for her as they are having exam now. But they actually did!!

Left my place in the evening & bought a chocolate vanilla cake in town area before meeting up with Rochelle & Audrey in City Mall.

We chilled around in City Mall while waiting for Rochelle to come all the way from Karamunsing.

hot chocolate from Playground

Yamcha @Playground, City Mall while waiting for Rochelle in an hour time. Ordered a cup of hot chocolate, filled my tummy with hot beverage. Audrey ordered the Iced Pink Soda, it tastes really nice and refreshing by the way. The food on the menu looks so sinful but we ought to save our tummy for sue's cake later.

Girls' talk with Audrey & we have planned so many activities on the coming holidays. Rock climbing/dinner/outing and etc. I always love holidays to come therefore i get to hang out with my friends! :)

Automatically my face turned into the sien face while waiting for Rochelle for almost 50-60minutes. Seriously it felt like forever. Credits to Audrey.

An hour later:

I guess our(Rochelle,Audrey & I) plan success to surprise her, or not? Not as what we planned but we actually did it.

My car was a troublemaker! No jokes. I should have parked my car further away from her house so that she wouldn't know i was there. Anyway, Rochelle & Audrey presence did surprised her though. She never expected both of them to come.

Unfortunately, Rachel & Yee Ting couldn't join us celebrating Sue's birthday as Rachel is having mid-term exam soon. No matter what, we still love you! Good luck in your studies love :)

As usual, she always get more than 2 cakes on her birthday every year. As in this year, she has already cut 3 cakes. Therefore, i would never missed buying a cake for her every year! It would be the best present for her when im running out of idea what to get for her.

But of coarse, we get her a dress from topshop which i bought it during my KL trip a month ago and 2 pair of earings.

Last picture for the night. Hoping that the 6 of us will gather up soon even we are now busy with our own career/studies. Anyway, miss you girls so much!! :3

Till then, got to get prepared for the Miss Earth Sabah Day 1 briefing!! xo

Seventh Day of May

Hello people!! Has been planning on something for these past few days. Everything seem to be well planned but something crushed on the same date and same time. Feel so suckish right now :(

Oh well, thousand thanks to my sweetheart, Brenda to design me a new template, as you can see right now, isn't it a big difference from my previous simple yet boring template? Well i admit it i don't really spend much time to learn how to design a template, im not an IT freak bdw.

Also, Brenda helped me to add on the nuffnang ads on my blog which i always had trouble to sign in. I guess i have tried to sign in with the 2 email address of mine but still i didn't manage to sign up. So i gave up.

Until today, Brenda told me why couldn't i sign in because i didn't approved the request from nuffnang and it is saved in my junk folder lol. Dumb right haha.

http://brenda-jiahui.blogspot.com/ Visit & see how creative my love is to design for her blog! But please don't go through her newest updates, because you will have a bad impression towards me once you have read it! Haha

Anyway, i really appreciate the effort my love has put in doing my new template & sign in to the nuffnang! <3

By the way, today is Sueyani's birthday and im gonna blog about it soon. Hope you will have a blast birthday celebrating with your schoolmates in school!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SIS :)
