That was two years ago.

Now, she's glad she didn't listen to herself.

On 29 Jun, the 26-year-old was crowned first runner-up at the Mrs World 2008 pageant in Kaliningrad, Russia.

Mrs Ukraine Natalia Shmarenkova clinched the top position among more than 30 contestants.

Colleen spoke to The New Paper at her home on Saturday, just three days after returning to Singapore.

Of her decision to quit the pageant scene, she said: 'Back then, I thought, what else can you do after Miss World?'

But it was her vast experience - nine pageants and six titles, including The New Paper New Face 2001 runner-up and Miss Singapore World 2006 - that did it.
