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.

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Not Gone from Good

Life hasn't been good lately especially in the last two weeks. The latest news is that it seems that almost everyone has an increase in their pay due to changes in the civil servant wage scale and very unfortunately, my group didn't get it. So my boss, whose post is that of a manager and the operations manager, have quite a significant salary rise.  I heard she got a 10% pay rise. 10%!!! look, even the attendants got a pay rise. What we got? nada! zilch! Why? Because apparently our salary is of a competitive range. Sigh, such is the unfairness of life. I'm already struggling as it is and then apparently now, the rich has become richer. The poor remains nothing but a destitute mess. So I guess the only chance for a pay rise is for me to be promoted and though I do not know how much pay rise will that be, at least it is going to be slightly better. The problem is that I have no clue when I will get promoted. I am not one of those people with many super ideas that will great...
