A More Beautiful Me.

I don't really put too much effort in my outward appearance because my philosophy is that what's inside matters more plus sometimes I can't be bothered. Since I'm not pursuing a career as a flight attendant I thought otherwise. I realise I should start taking care of myself. There's nothing stopping me. Ever since my teenage years, my once flawless complexion was plagued with unsightly pimples. As any other teenager would I tried everything in the market but nothing worked. I remember my mum bringing home a new herbal product every week but alas! nothing worked. It was so frustrating. I guess I gave up after that. My skin improved slightly but it could be better. I'm going organic, all natural. I'm no longer a skin product junkie. I'm optimistic. I've realised that these things do matter. How you look determines who you marry, if you get picked on in school, your confidence level to mention a few aspects......Hopefully mine will be a success story that I can share next year (fingers crossed.) Wish me luck.

All I want for Christmas..

You know those days when you're just out of luck, well today I had one of those. I won't bore you with all the details. All you need to know is that I left school with nothing intact (including my mind). There's never a dull day I tell you. What's new with me? Nothing much. I'm thinking of getting a new haircut, maybe a tattoo :p I'm not yet there. And you know how they say you can't be in university and not cheat. Well that's true. I will not disclose any further details. I'm spending countless hours thinking of the short break from school. Trying not to worry too much about exams. But one thing I don't look forward to is Christmas. To put it simply, I do not like how I've spent it in the past few years. It's been mundane and very boring. I also hate the feeling of the year coming to an end before I can do everything I planned to. It doesn't help that everywhere I go there's trees, lights, santa............As a kid, this was the best holiday ever. I remember the excitement for new clothes that we'd wear to church on Xmas morning (we got new clothes once a year). After, we ate and drank and enjoyed ourselves and then some. I miss our traditions which have gradually died as we've all grown older. I miss decorating the house for Xmas(who bothers these days). We'd watch the same film every year (Home Alone). It didn't seem weird back then. We had fun! It was true Christmas spirit. Maybe, I've forgotten the true meaning of Christmas. I guess I have to find a new way for the older me to enjoy Christmas. This year, all I want for Christmas is a quiet day. I just want a simple, low key day with immediate family (and a galaxy tablet maybe :) Then I'll feel very fulfilled. Finally, Please Nominate my Blog for BAKE awards :) here.  Enjoy the public Holiday.
