If you think you will be stuck at home this Christmas season because there are not good parties to attend, you cannot miss the upcoming SIM-UOL Pageant.

SIM UOL's annual Pageant by the school's Student Representative Council will be held on 18 December 2008 from 8 pm at Zouk. The orgnisers are promising a glittering night of excitement and fun, featuring the best looking babes and hunks from the cohort.

We know you wouldn't want to miss this, so we speak to the 12 good looking pageant people from SIM UOL and give you the heads-up to little things you would like to know about them.

  The career prospects for SIM-UOL graduates are top-notch and I'll have an opportunity to be in London for post-graduate studies. I like SIM-UOL's flexible and widely recognised programmes
Pre-Uni Nanyang Polytechnic Catholic Junior College
     
After-school Visit to the grandparents', pleasures with girlfriends or just catching up with schoolwork. I play Ultimate Frisbee! I consider myself new to the sport but it's fun and easy to pick up.

Why she's in this contest

It's a remedy for stage fright, a step to confidence, an insight to exposure and definitely a reason for more friends.

My mum taught me how to bring out that originality in me, whether or not I win.

Her secret

I have a sailing license.

Her campus life

In School, I am never seen without my megawatt smile!

The best pick-up lines she's heard

'Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk past you again?'

She handles her guys

If I have a crush on a guy in school, I would create an imaginary fairytale story about us and share it among my schoolmates for the fun of it. I doubt I'll even make the first move, I'm conservative.

If the guy I love ignores me and hangs out with his friends all the time, I'll spend time with myself and recollect my thoughts or plan a short trip out of town. At the same time, I'll drop him messages telling him his company is missed.

I would impress my date's mum because I always believe that the key to a man's heart is through the queen of his life, his mum. If his mum fancies me, it'll definitely be a bonus because my date will be proud of me for that.

She's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I will a special companion who is well trained with jungle survival skills and still knows how to rack up some fun.


Why he's in this contest

It is a platform to gain experience and exposure. Confidence and personality would probably be the 2 most important factors that will determine the winner.

His secret

I still keep the pillow my mum specially made for me when I was young.

The best pick-up lines he's heard

"If you were a burger at Macdonald's, I'd name you McGorgeous."

He handles his girls

If I have a crush on a girl in school, I'll appear at places she frequent and lead her into thinking that it's "affinity" in the making.

If the girl I love ignores me and hangs out with her friends all the time, I'll try to understand why and try to change for the better. If all else fail, I'll prepare for a breakup and move on.

I would impress my date's mum because I might have to call her "mum" someday, so why not build a good rapport with her first?

His body

I want to be taller!

He's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I'll bring my crush with me. It'll probably be very romantic with just the 2 of us. Since I've my phone with me all the time, I wouldn't have problems surviving.

  I need a more independant approach to studying and fancy a faculty of cool, open-minded individuals. I can't get into NUS, NTU or SMU and it sounds cooler then RMIT or Unisim and cheaper than UB.

After-school Sometimes, I go home and nap. Sometimes, I head right to town. Depends on what I feel like that day. I work or attend track & field training

Why she's in this contest

I want to be involved in something that would be fun and challenging.

Her campus life

In School, I am never seen without my phone. I'm either smsing, playing music or surfing the web with it.

She handles her guys

If I have a crush on a guy in school, I would not know what to do and hope he just happens to dig me too. Shy lah. Help, anyone? I wouldn't want to make it obvious at all. I'd probably just try to sound fun and interesting when I talk to him. If he buys it, then lets go to the next stage!

If the guy I love ignores me and hangs out with his friends all the time, I would ditch him and find someone who appreciates me.

I would impress my date's mum because if I'm serious about him, I would put in effort to make sure everything falls into place and everybody likes everybody so everything would work out!

Her body

I would like long and slender legs.

She's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I will bring my best friend because she would be everything I need. She'd be my entertainer, my comfort blanket and even my map/compass.


Why he's in this contest

There is a high chance that I will get to know the hot chicks in school!

I don't think I'm bad looking but I'm not that good looking either. I don't get a lot of ugly shocking looks from girls but I also don't hook up with chicks easily.

My small cute eyes with natural straight white teeth shouldn't hit me down to bad looking.

The winners will be humble, real, charismatic and doesn't have a face of a punching bag.

His secret

If I scream suddenly, it might be I'm trying to cover the sound of my fart.

The best pick-up lines he's heard

Am I cute enough for you, or do you need more drinks?

He handles his girls

If I have a crush on a girl, I would play the guitar and sing her a meaningful love song. I will try to appear wherever she might be to let her know my existence. Thereafter, approach her and use the best pickup line I've heard.

I would impress my date's mum because she will be equally hot!

His body

I want new bigger lungs to run longer, sing louder and better and replace my nicotine tinted lungs.

He's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I would bring Tom Hanks. Haven't you watch "Castaway"? Dude, he's awesome man!

Pre-Uni ACJC (Science) Ngee Ann Polytechnic (Banking and Finance)
     
After-school I shop, shop and shop. I also enjoy chilling out over drinks or movie. I always hear about hot banking girls so I gotta find out for myself.

Her secrets

I am so lazy that I would hold my pee if the toilet's too far, thinking that I would need to pee again in a few hours anyway, so why bother now, later pee all at one shot.

I don't ever wear bras unless absolutely necessary. That being said, it explains why I only own 1 bra in my closet for when that "absolutely necessary" situation arises!

If people recognise me on the streets after this interview, I would cringe because they'll be constantly checking out my nose just because I said it's too big. Or worse, checkin' out my boobs to see if I was wearing a bra that day. I just made my flaws highly conspicuous.

The best pick-up lines she's heard

You'd need me to notice you first. But if you have to…Just stick to the "can I get you a drink?"I never say no to Moet.

She handles her guys

If I have a crush on a guy in school, I would try to be in his presence, playin' it cool, hoping to be noticed.

He's only a crush. Pretty to look at and hang around.Why would I need to impress him? Waste my energy ah!

If the guy I love ignores me and hangs out with his friends all the time, I'd befriend his friends and they'll realise I'm more fun to be with and hang with me instead. *lowwwblowww* "wont'ja wanna hang with me now huh, daaarlinggg?"

I would impress my date's mum because that be it date's mom or not, I wouldn't wanna leave a bad image anywhere. You'll never know when opportunity is round the corner for something BIG.

Her body

I would like a smaller nose. It's too big for my liking. Don't gimme the prosperous nonsense. My wallet only has 2 dollars right now.

She's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I would bring a motor boat. To go back to the mainland of course. why the hell would I wanna be stranded for goodness sake! Life's too short to be alone.


Why he's in this contest

It means fun and making friends and hopefully lots of booze after the show.

The best pick-up lines he's heard

Hey, are you from SAJC?

His campus life

In school, I am never seen without my big bulky school bag, it contains all my training equipment and bags of sweets for the ladies.

He handles his girls

If I have a crush on a girl, I would just be myself and feel confident. That'll give the girl a sense of mystery and she will be impressed.

If the girl I love ignores me and hangs out with her friends all the time, I would assess he amount of effort I need to put in to get her attention. I know when to give up.

I would impress my date's mum because she decides whether I will be going out with her daughter again.

Pre-Uni St Andrews Junior College St Andrews Junior College

Her secret

I can't sleep without my 15-year blanket.

She handles her guys

If I have a crush on a guy in school, I would probably just smile? I would watch from afar and be satisfied catching glimpses of him. Even if its just for a second or two. I wouldn't try to impress him. Or rather I really don't know how to.

If the guy I love ignores me and hangs out with his friends all the time, I would talk to him about it. If not, find a new guy who would pay attention to me!

I would impress my date's mum just in case I end up marrying the guy. And first impressions are important.

Her body

I'm not happy with my teeth. I wore braces for 3 years and they are still slightly crooked. If not, be gone love handles! They're just unsightly.


Why he's in this contest

I wanted to show Singaporeans that bald men can be models too. It's an avenue for me to learn how to deal with the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspect of my life.

I think I'm good looking and that's because I'm confident and unique.

His secret

I love free-balling. (I hate wearing underwea.r)

He handles his girls

I would approach the girl and start a conversation with her. I would write her a poem and a love song and perform it to her. Music melts the heart. I wouldn't want the opportunity to slip. Time waits for no man.

I would impress my date's mum because she would certainly want to have an impressive son-in-law. I would impress because I definitely wanna give a good first impression,

His body

I want new calves because I've got chicken calves. My nick's 'chicken little'.

He's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I would bring my mum. The one person who is is my strength and shield. Nothing goes wrong when she is by my side.

Her secret

I prefer to sleep butt-naked. It's so comfortable.

Why she's in this contest

A friend signed me up and I was thinking, well, why not? We've only one life to live, might as well have some fun.

I think I am slightly more blessed in the looks department, thanks to the combination of good skin and height.

A pageant didn't used to mean anything to me and it still doesn't because it doesn't reflect much! Nevertheless, I do think that this is a great stage for one to build confidence and I applaud everyone who has been in a pageant before because walking graceful in 4-inch heels is no easy feat!

The best pick-up lines she's heard

A guy once told me that I was engaging. You gotta give him props for using such a funky word which doesn't emphasise on the physical aspect like most pickup lines do!

Her campus life

In School, I am never seen without my handy dandy organiser! I am a complete scatterbrain so this is really essential to me in helping to keep track of all the dates and appointments.

I'm a home-body so usually I'll head home to unwind after school. Simple and comforting.

She handles her guys

If I have a crush on a guy in school, I would read into his interests so that we can speak on the same wavelength.

If the guy I love ignores me and hangs out with his friends all the time, I would make my own plans and have my own fun.

I would impress my date's mum because the way to a man's heart is through his mum who is probably the biggest female influence in his entire life... until me that is.

Her body

I would change my ankles because I've sprained them one time too many and every morning when I get up, they hurt due to old injuries.

She's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I would bring huge bottle of sunblock because I burn easily in the sun, and being sunburnt is not fun.


Why he's in this contest

I would like to set the standard for all the guys in school. I also have a passion to lead and influence people around. I want to be able to impact lives and make a difference to people.

His secrets

I'm an aunty killer.

The best pick-up lines he's heard

Is your dad a terrorist? Baby, you are a BOMB!

His campus life

I love going to gym to chill out after a tiring day in school. I also like to hang out with friends to play guitar. It is fun when we sing and play together.

He handles his girls

If I have a crush on a girl in school, I would try to get her attention. I would be very sensitive to her dislike and likes. I will find out her needs and meet it.

If the girl I love ignores me and hangs out with her friends all the time, I will get to know her friends first and develop a relationship with them. When everyone is comfortable with me, I would organise an outing to create a chemistry between us.

I would impress my date's mum because a relationship consists of the in-laws as well. Therefore, by impressing my date's mum, we would be able to create a close knitted family. More trust will be given by my in-laws to me for taking care of their daughter.

After-school I usually head home if I'm not meeting my friends. Either doing minor revision in school or hanging out with friends. If I am scheduled for work, I'll go work and earn some cash to save up for the year end snowboarding trip to Canada.

The best pick-up lines she's heard

'All the other girls in this room wasted 2 hours of their time dolling themselves up because you're the most beautiful here.'

She handles her guys

If I have a crush on a guy in school, I would try to bump into him as often as possible.

If the girl I love ignores me and hangs out with her friends all the time, I would move on. He's immature and not worth any of my time.


Why he's in this contest

To have a fun and memorable experience, make new friends and learn a thing or two on improving my fashion sense, such as having a hairstyle and wearing clothes that compliment my body, face and height.

His secret

I am scared of injections and cuts. I rather you shoot me in the head than slash me with a sharp samurai sword.

His campus life

In School, I am never seen without my ray ban shades. It helps to keep the harmful rays off my eyes.

He handles his girls

If I have a crush on a girl in school, I would approach her and ask her what would be the best way for a guy to approach herr. Then I'll apply it on her.

If the girl I love ignores me and hangs out with her friends all the time, I didn't actually think that I would fall in love with a guy. I wouldn't even care. I think I'll go hang out with a hot babe.

I would impress my date's mum because she is the future protective shield from my date's dad.

He's stranded!

If I am stranded on a deserted Pulau Ubin, I would probably bring survival expert, Les Stroud. He would be the prefect solution to my food source and shelter. It would be my turn to show him how to survive the peak hours of getting in the MRT when we get back to Singapore.

Tickets for the SIM-UOL Pageant at Zouk at $22, happening on 18 Dec 2008 from 8 p.m. - 3 a.m. are available here!
