What Makes You Beautiful

I've talked about this before but you know, being girls we tend to compare ourselves to others and then think that they have physical qualities that make them attractive and us mere ugly mortals. 

But I've also learn that we should just accept our looks and you know, there is always make up to help enhance your looks (not hide it, mind you..unless you talk about concealing your dark circles and blemishes). Of course there are women, older or even much younger women who would go under the knife or go through cosmetic procedures like silicon fillings, botox injections to further enhance their looks. Whatever it is, while every woman wants to look good not just for the sake of attraction but as a feel good quality and to raise our confidence level, it is NOT the only thing that makes you beautiful.

Beauty should also come from within. If you see her better looking than you, trust me hunny, there will be hundreds or thousands of other girls way better looking than her. Plus, what makes you think she will look as beautiful as that down the road? People's looks changes over the years like it or not and then, if you build good rapport with your friends and family, unless they are so freaking stuck up, chances are people remember you best as who you really are rather than what you present yourself as. 

Of course it doesn't always mean you can get away with looking not so your very best. Of course there will be some days you couldn't be bothered especially with what you wear but the least you should do is to look decent enough and not like you rolled off your bed and you stop it at that, pyjamas and all..haha.

So really, I can empathize with girls who see a potential love interest in another guy and my goodness, look at the facebook friends and suddenly you feel so small. Er, in my case not small as in physically small because that will never happen but rather you feel so so SO inferior. It happened to me before and the guy isn't a potential one but someone who was introduced to me. After that incident, I avoided him like a plague and yah, I think me going MIA had an impact on his impression on me and I didn't get to speak to him anymore.

Not just that, there will be guys you will get to know and has some interest in and then seeing his 'track record' of the girl or girls he dated and you think that why me?! when you see them look way better than you. But eventually if the guy is sincere enough in wanting to know you as more than a friend or be with you for the rest of his life, looks are merely secondary. 

Every time you feel so gawd awful horrible about how she looks and how YOU look, think about the qualities that makes you beautiful. First impression counts but always remember that if you are beautiful from the inside, it will show on the outside and surpass your own physical beauty.

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
