SHARLYN SAYS:
Studying?
Nursing!
Why that course?
It’s a long story that started out with a visit to the hospital to see my ailing grandmother. I got inspiration from there and with the support of my family and my worst admission interview ever, here I am!
Pre-University Life?
Was spent with wonderful friends and slogging through the A-levels at St Andrew’s Junior College.
She cannot live without!
My trusty iPod and some good earphones.
You can find her at!
My room at E Block! J
Why she thinks she should be in this contest…
because… the committee picked me!
What she likes most about being in this contest…
the countless dance practices and trying on clothes and photo taking. REALLY. I love every bit of it!
Her wildest and naughtiest trip down the memory lane is…
a thing of the past that haunts the present.
About the model in her…
it’s something that I have yet to discover for myself.
How she handles male attention…
just be friends!
Campus life…
is a lot more convenient when the need to travel to and fro is eliminated with a room in hall!
Her body…
I got it from my mama!
Her wildest dream…
saw me in a jungle wearing leopard preens and hanging out with the coolest zebras and giraffes.
If she was magically transported to the 70’s, she would…
be a crazy fan girl and chase down Creedence Clearwater Revival.
If she had the choice of magically transporting someone from the 70’s, it would be…
Stevie Nicks! And she would sing to me, Just like the white-winged dove, sings the song sounds like she’s singing, ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh…

Studying?
Medicine
Why that course?
I like to interact with people on a daily basis, and not be confined to an office, desk-bound job. Furthermore, I feel that studying medicine affords one the greatest to help another human being in need, across all different cultures and situations. Lastly, it made my beloved late grandmother who was suffering from a really bad stroke, really proud to know that I had been pursuing something really meaningful as medicine.
Pre-University Life?
In secondary school! I was the most serious person that anyone could ever imagine! (hard to believe now I know), often frowning at the practical jokes and bullshit that was going on around me.
All that changed in JC. When I decided I had enough of being a very guai boy, and decided that in life, you should just have fun and learn to laugh at your self, before your teenager years slip past and you have to be serious as an adult! Hence, it led me to embrace my FULL-OF-SHIT ways (which everyone I suppose is rather well acquainted with!)
Right now! I am trying to balance both these aspects of my personality! But not making much progress though, if I may add!
He cannot live without!
Friends and Family! Everyone knows I go crazy if I have no one to talk nonsense/shit with!
You can find him at!
The science library, Level 6. Near the isolation cubicles (or sometimes at the table with the fire extinguisher). The librarians smile at me and wave goodbye when I leave the library! Talk about establishing an awesome STREET-CRED!
Why he thinks he should be in this contest…
My life revolves around going to the library daily till closing time, even on Saturdays! (and listening to the victory song), this certainly would add some variety to it! I had something to boast, when I do tell other people that I TRY MY BEST to get a life!
What he likes most about being in this contest…
Getting to know the other contestants and having old friends tell me that I actually look pretty decent! (contrary to what they tell me everyday in School. Compliants mostly revolve around my hairstyle, as usual!)
His wildest and naughtiest trip down the memory lane is…
As a primary 1 boy, while waiting for the school bus! I was feeling bored, and shoved a banana that I found on the ground into a car exhaust pipe! The dude’s engine that stalled and starting steaming when he started the car and cranked his engine! He then asked me if i knew who shoved a banana into his car exhaust! I just smiled and said I didn’t know anything, and I was going to be late for school!
About the model in him…
Hardly! My grades aren’t fantastic, and Mae Yue really praises me when I go for lectures! I am however, trying my best to change that around!
How he handles female attention…
What female attention???
Campus life…
Campus life certainly offers much freedom! For one, you can decide if you would like to miss lectures or sleep at 4.50 in the morning. Of course with great freedom comes great responsibility too! And I’m certainly learning how to cope with the responsibility bit. Additionally, the people I’ve met and befriended through hall and the countless memories I have had are certainly those I will cherish for life!
His body…
Skinny waist (which often makes my pants look extremely baggy) and my long hair, which I happen to have a bitter-sweet relationship with!
His wildest dream…
After watching zombieland! I dreamt my close guy friends and I were the only ones left, and we hunted down zombies L4D-style! Everything was going good, until we made a last stand in my friend’s bedroom! Then my memory got fuzzy. I think I woke up at that instant
If he was magically transported to the 70’s, he would…
Check out how hip my MAMA and PAPA were, and how they would hit the disco and what not! Most importantly, how they lived life and had fun as a teenager/young adult. Great excuse to go out late, knowing that they had their fair share of fun in their hey day. Also, would be fun to find out their embarrassing moments and tease them about it, so my parents don’t keep teasing me about joining the pageant all day, and nag about my hair length!
If he had the choice of magically transporting someone from the 70’s, it would be…
My PAPA and MAMA when they were young adults! It would be really cool to get to know them as pals! And see what kind of mischief we get up to!
