10 Years

3 more months, it will be my 10th year anniversary pursuing passion in beauty industry! 
Wow 😲incredible.... looking back at 2008-2018, never regretted this decision where I bade goodbye to counting money算账💰 and switched to painting faces🎨. 

Started with zero income, maximum humility, passion fuel, inevitable fear, limitless hope... the world can be cruel with their opinions & attempts to kill ur dreams & spirit, opposing parents to my iron rice bowl & close friends disbelief, ego at stake. I learnt to be less logical & cancel judgements and consciously choose to follow my heart. The issue with following ur heart is u get hurt by people sometimes, quite badly. U break apart into tears in front of ur very close ones, but mostly u cry alone. Wipe away those tears & get back up again. Like a fighter, #muhammedali #michaeljordan, u fight harder with all u got. 

It’s either now or never. 

All or nothing attitude & keep moving.

Because life is full of lessons. 

U either learn & grow or stay & suffer. 

I would rather use all my energies to keep sharpening myself while helping those on same journey of life and we become what God created us to be. 

Bold heart

BE BOLD.
BE THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF.

Because the possibilities in life are INFINITE.
While following your heart.
Your heart knows the direction.

Write your life yourself

I once read a ziglar quote that I got immediately intrigued in...and follow till today.




You know... When you got overwhelmed and almost drowning in the sea of work & what not yours, you forgot about it. That's what happens to me. I lost my direction & purpose in life.
What I truly want...I mean my heart. Deep inside, the goal & DREAM is so strong!
It's burning slowly and picking up fire again when I give it attention!

Today, I am reminded of it again.
It's been a while since I read it and apply it! Now is the time again for some heart to heart with myself reflections.


" First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.
Life is a grindstone. Whether it wears you down or polishes you up depends on what YOU are made of."
~Zig Ziglar

What I want to be, who I want to be, who I am, remind myself this again and again. Keep in mind who I am. What I want to achieve! I really want to go out there & try out the real world! New York / Paris!

I want to work with a brand/ company who has resources to invest in me, groom me & allow me to grow immensely FAST!
Time I dont have to waste! I want it quick! I want it now!

I know I have nothing to lose,
and when I become transfixed on a passionate goal, I always give my all-> time & energy.
I am willing to work hard (& smart!) and give everything I have to be working towards becoming the No.1 fashion runways/ shows and become the BEST in the makeup industry, the IT celebrity artist!
Perhaps... Perhaps 3.. Or 5years later, I may come back again to Singapore and build my own beauty brand!
