Extreme Makeovers

i caught oprah's show a few days back which featured 'extreme makeovers'. this one guy had a total change in the way he looked and it wasn't all that bad, i admit. but to me, he looked 'fake'. so he got a new chin, changed the shape of his face, but it didn't seem real. he looked like a worn doll. he did have a better outlook in life though, so in that sense, maybe the plastic surgery was a success.

but this other makeover featured a woman whose body was ravaged by breast cancer. she had a mastectomy and she said it herself, that she felt as if she wasn't 100% woman anymore. and so aside from other things, she got breast reconstructive surgery. and the change in her (not just physically, but emotionally as well) was awesome! and to this end the surgery/ies were also a rousing success.

which made me think ... if i had a chance, what would i "make-over"? on the physical side, i would LOVE to get a liposuction and tummy tuck, for obvious reasons! ha ha ha! when that happens, i'll don a 2 pc bathing suit and hit the beach! ha ha ha! :D but then i'd like to make over some other things in my life as well.

a change in job is long overdue, that's for sure. and i'd like to go somewhere i've never been before. some where i can start a new life. could be singapore, malaysia, or possibly even the US! a career overhaul! that's what i would call it. :)

my family life is stable and it's a comfort that i have a good support system in that area, and in my friends, as well. a new relationship would be nice. though i'm not really actively looking. the way i see it, he should come looking for me! ha ha ha! ;)

hmmm...enough wishful thinking. got to get back to reality.
