i'm too sexy

This morning over a rushed breakfast a male friend said, "Confidence makes a woman so sexy". And although my throat was in excruciating pain from the sambal sotong, I stopped and thought... "YES THAT'S IT!!!!!"

I could've shouted Eureka. All my life I've always tried to be confident. Especially around men, and especially at the office, because that's when I think I needed to be a tad bit territorial. And I've had 2 or 3 guys telling me that I am, not in the literal sense of the word, sexy. I've gotten remarks like "strangely sexy" - and I thought, what the hey, I don't even wear short skirts and sexy tops to the office. Why lah? Now I geddit.

Don't get me wrong, most people who know me won't say "sexy" is a top-of-mind recall when my name is mentioned. I've always been called tembam or cute (euphemism for tembam la), interchangeably. But sexy, only to a few people. And I've always wondered why, until today.

Oh god, I do sound so perasan in this posting...trust me, I AM NOT.

My theory is: To become really sexy, you gotta feel sexy.

How to feel sexy?

Listen to Madonna every day.

KEkekekeke! (Helps to walk with confidence, especially.)

p/s: This is crazy but I still have Madonna's Confessions tour songs in my Shuffle. Can't leave home without it. Not saying that I feel that sexy, I just feel confident when I'm walking with that music in my ears.

I so believe you about Madonna. Music is sexy-inducing really. Usually if I'm driving alone I will have Sergio Mendes on full blast... or Stevie Wonder.

Me tooooo! Sergio Mendes yg remix by BEP I still dengar. And the Stevie collection ahhhh..sangaaat sayang. But I dengar when I'm driving alone. But lately I tak kesah. Kazu ada sebelah pon I karaoke sensorang with Stevie's songs in the car. :p
