After a series of disappointing lack of love and new horizons for career, the princess was getting alittle depressed at the state of non-achievements in recent times.
Maybe i have been doing it all wrong all these times.
Maybe i have not been wanting it so badly such that the universe relents finally and let me have my way.
Maybe life is just unfair.
The princess was about to doubt the high priestess of oracle and her foretelling of my impending one great love of my life.
But an independent verification with the sacred mother of Chinese lotus indicates that as the princess goes into the lunar summer in June, things will finally be looking up.
It seems that the writing's on the cards and in the skies.
The princess looks set to embrace June with my long slender arms as i live life one month at a time.
These days, it seems, the princess can only survive on hopes and temporary bursts of happiness..........

The power of goodbye
Madonna in her Gothic-meets-new age days. Ray of light, the album that saw the resurrection of her career (before she went downhill again all too quickly).
These days, she just seems to be desperately holding on to her past glories, riding on the success of the next wave of pop divas & trying too hard to be who she is not.
True to the wisdom of her song (and this album), sometimes, there is power in saying goodbye.
As we reach half year of 2010, there is perhaps some things that we should also say good riddance to.
The princess' top 5 lists of stuff to say goodbye to:
1) Power, fame and wealth
While they can do wonders, the need for them are still, no matter, stemmed from the insecurities that we could become a lesser person without them. Let not our lives be defined by them & let the others fight it out as much as they want to.
2) Letting the right one in
There will never be the right one or the only one. The secret to love is finally realising that it could be anyone. Opening up your heart to a world of possibilities no matter how bizarre they may seem could just be the answer to it all.
3) Fixing whats broken
Sometimes there is no need to try to fix whats broken. Our innate craziness to fix things up could drive us crazier.
4) Listening to the good advice of another
Like they say, one man's meat is another man's poison especially in a world where none is ever the wiser (although they often appears to). Perhaps, the best advice that you could ever get is by listening to your heart.
5) The biggest loser
In life (and so as in weight management), you lose some, you gain some (sooner or later).
The princess decided that she doesnt need a perfect picture body to go with her beautiful face in 2010; finally coming to terms that life is never measured in calories and kilograms.
Love, Princess P

Last night a DJ saved my life
In the world of booze & music, life can be drama free, unconditionally simple and infectiously corny.
As the princess readies herself for a weekend of infinite possibilities on the dance floor, without a care in the world, she begins her disco diva ritual song:
"Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life from a broken heart
Last night a deejay saved my life
Last night a deejay saved my life with a song"
While it sounds weirder than fiction, sometimes, all the princess really need, is a DJ to save me (from the silly pretence and egoistical self-importance that the world would like us to believe in).
Lurve,
The DJ princess

The Desperate & The Housewife
Lady "V", who nowadays go by the name of Naomi (as in Naomi Watts) or so she claims, certainly got alot of PR damages to handle in recent weeks after shooting off her mouth at a certain powerful housewife whose husband is in the "who-whos" list of the royalty world.
Perhaps, what Lady "V" needs now is more than a change in name after being labelled as "Desperate" and "Psycho" by many in the industry.
Well, being a close confidante of the Ms Lady Naomi "V", the princess (now being conferred as Scarlett Johanssen - because of our similar voluptuous body shape) can only offer a golden piece of advice based on her own experience.
"Go listen to Mariah sing." Princess Scarlett P offered.
At the same time, Princess Scarlett P would like to issue an official press release on behalf of Lady "V" that this unfortunate turn of event is really due to a series of miscommunications and misjudgements.
And rumours have it that Lady "V" has self-checked herself into an anger management class (as like the other Naomi - the original Supermodel, Campbell)
The princess sincerely hopes that "the Desperate" and "the Housewife" will finally let things pass.
Afterall, like they say in fashion, One day you're IN, the next day you're OUT.
Mock fighting over a man just to gain publicity is definitely a No-No in the high class society that we live in.
All the princess can say...... Lady "V" and Frumpy Housewife... you both are OUT!
Sorry, babe
XOXO,
Scarlett J

If i never knew you - Pocahontas
Amongst the many well meaning advices dished out to the princess, not listening to any disney's princess love songs is one of them (lest i get too carried away by the unhealthy notions of fairy tale love)
But sometimes, occasionally, the princess still wonders when she will ever find her John Smith :) so that she can break into a beautiful love song with him in a middle of a conversation.
"If i never knew you" (Mel Gibson and Judy Kuhn)
Isnt it wonderful to find someone who can make you feel fearless beyond and above life itself but yet, ironically, give you an inkling of how precious life can be..... someone that you can be grateful to forever for coming into your life (even if it wasnt meant to be forever).
Yes, the princess gets carried away again. everytime. without fail.
Love,
Princess P

The Golden Rule Girl
Just the other day, dear Mikey spoke to me, asking me about my life and how am i dealing with it.
Well, life's great i think.
How well i am dealing with it? I really dont know. I guess, its really a step at a time right now. Everyday, there seemed to be something new to learn about and deal with.
Ultimately, as long as you learn from it all and grow wiser but not cynical, its cool. Afterall, life is the world's greatest teacher one can ever have, isnt it?
Mikey called the princess a "closeted perfectionist" and "world's best disguised pessimist".
Not quite the terms of endearment from anyone the princess thinks.
Not wanting to take his remarks personally, the princess asked :"Am I?" I mean, the princess has always been known to be perfectly easy going and one of the friendiest gal pal around.
Mikey, being such a dear friend, just gave the princess a hug and that was it.
The princess knows what Mikey means.
I cant live thru life assuming that everyone holds a set of ISO9000 rules and expects perfect compliance with the golden rules in life.
Some people and some things are just the way they are.
Perhaps, the most imperfect thing in life is perfection itself. Sometimes, we just to need to know that even the freakest, ugliest stuff in life can be beautiful.
And Its really up to us to be willing to see pass it and embrace it with a hug. just Like dear Mikey mike.
Love,
The princess
