Once in a while, I will pick up a novel (very rare though), sometimes a motivational book or a comic, but the one thing that I have been consistently read is MAGAZINE.
I remembered borrowing my bro's "Teenage" and "Teens" and admiring the pretty "big sisters and brothers" when I was in primary school. I was pretty sure I was simply looking at the pictures and not paying much attention to the contents. I knew most of the models' names as I would view over and over again!
In secondary school, I had a friend who waz crazy over Leon Lai and would buy any magazine that has his photos in it, no matter how small. I was then reading lots of entertainment magazines. I am constantly updated about entertainment news.
Of course, I was then officially reading Teens and Teenagers and they were usually borrowed issues since I didn't have too much spare cash.
Dearie was then into CLEO and would buy it monthly. He literally stacked the magazines month by month - coz he loves the pretty faces of the cover gals! And his favourite was this Jan Cover Gal called Madison ! That edition was always on top of the pile.
I then went on to GO, CLEO, FEMALE, HER WORLD. A lot of time , the magazines were read when I was at the hair salon! It remains so, even for now.
Recent fav - Style Wedding! Love all the pretty gowns, decors, flowers and all things pretty in there. There is really nothing spectacular to read and you are probably paying more for the adverts than anything else (S$8.50). But...
Browsing through the magazine helps put me in "fantasy land" ... though the wedding is still some time away from now, it is satisfying (for the soul) to discuss the possibilities, likes and dislikes with Dearie as we sip tea and go through the magazine regularly.
We know now what we are both looking for and we agree that we will not allow cheesy photos such as foreign customes, "hugging teddy bears", acting cute...
Jasmine and I always remind ourselves to stop the other party should there be a day when either of us attempt to take ROM photos at the "LOVE"outside Park Mall's glass house! She also mentioned the other "no-no"- the ever popular "water-fall" outside Millenia Tower! Teck sees wedding couples there every few days...Haha. Hmm... and never use Shania Twain's "From this moment" for march-in... over-rated and the song is actually written for a sad reason!!!!
Perhaps the next article that the magazine should feature is the "100 nos-nos of a wedding"! I can definitely contribute to that!
