Ratna is a really friendly lady, very professional, very talented and Cool!! : )
Really enjoyed my time working with her!!
And I totally love love love the results of the shoot! : )
I treasure the wonderful event opportunities given to me, coz I used to work much tougher jobs when i was younger.
That's why I don't complain much.
Having to wear high-heels, smile and stand around, is nothing compared to having to approach potential consumer/s to sign up for stuff on the spot and striving hard to meet sales quota, and feeling demoralized at the end of the day when occasionally,
you have your ''unlucky don't have good sales days''. I remember That i was an extremely aggressive sales person, and was always drained out at the end of the day. Some Events do require a bit of sales as well, but there's no stress with that, coz
there's no sales quota.
I treasure my studies a lot a lot, coz it gives me an assurance that my future would be good if i consistently strive to work hard. So that next time, I don't have to fully depend on my appearance to feed myself. ( I say ''fully'', Coz it is still very important to maintain a presentable appearance for any job. But eloquence, qualifications and personality are also essential elements. )
It's difficult being a girl!!
Some pictures of my quite new favourite clothes. : )
-Skinny Jeans
- Bodycon Dress
- Maxi Dress
hahaha. And i'd be going for the Tanned and toned look now, would be working hard on achieving it!! : )
Maxi Dresses and Tank Tops with Skinny jeans ( plus heels! hehehe! ) would look better with a more Tanned and Toned physique!
3 more modules left and this last 3 modules would determine whether i would get a degree with distinction ultimately.
If i get it, I would have fulfilled my self-actualisation need.
A lot of people ask me, ''Why do i work so hard?''
Well...i don't wanna waste time. I had wasted enough time during my younger years,
Hence, now that i'm older, and more matured, I need to work extra hard to make up for all the time that i've wasted.
And i'm self-motivated. I don't have a role model. I'm my own role model because i set my own standards for myself.
Anyway, at the end of the day, only ME, have to answer to myself. I'm in charge of my own life. I may not be very popular because I usually don't make popular decisions, but at least I know what I want, and i'm not a fake, pretentious person.
Do people judge me during Events?
Yes. There was a consumer who said that i looked like a school drop-out.
He probably looked down on me coz he felt that i could only depend on my youth to survive.
I guess many people judge me because they think that i'm just living on my youth and being a flower vase.
Well, there's more stories but i don't wanna seem highly unprofessional so i don't wanna blog about it.
Well, i'm not committing a crime, and i would regret not doing events as the the life-span of being an events talent is very short,that's y it's a temporary job till i graduate because it is currently the most attractive freelance job available right now.
I can enjoy, make friends, and release stress while working at events, and at the same time i have more time to study as events' schedules are highly-flexible. Anyway, I only work for clean, decent events. I would never do anything that goes against my moral values.
And i do recognize the fact that i can't be working front-end events forever.
i'd get old rite!
And...i'm not a stucked-up person. I'm just more careful because I'm afraid that being overly-friendly might give people the wrong impression of me. I guard my reputation very well.
And I thank all you friends who give me your support in everything that i do!
Btw,
I Love the shots from Otaku House!

And I'm so happy to be able to work at THe Mascot Parade and other events! ( updated on my facebook events accounts. : )
Thanks for the job opportunities! THanks to my very nice Agents, Clients, Friends! : )
I'm not Sharity Elephant. I don't own a charity organization. I'm not obligated to please people and do people favours.
I am not Jobstreet.com or Jobscentral. I don't own a Talent Management Organization. I don't like people bothering me day and night smsing me to introduce to them jobs. In the past, almost every week i get 1 or 2 smses like that. I get jobs because I work hard. Anyway, i've had so many bad experiences while helping people, i no longer wanna help. And i believe that you have your own hands and legs to help yourselves.
I am not a rental shop. I don't mind lending costumes to close friends. But don't expect me to lend my costumes out to any Jane, Mary and Alice. It's always difficult to get back things that i lent. And it irritates me like hell, when i don't have a certain costume or certain attire for shoots/ events/ casting.
I don't like people to judge me. I have to go for auditions and castings and constantly work on my portfolio to obtain event jobs. It's not easy to obtain jobs. Don't ever think that it's easy to obtain jobs.
I don't want to do design for now, anymore, because i've mentioned many times i'm taking a break from it. I've got my own life to live.
I'm not a chatline. I am not obligated to entertain all smses and calls. If i said stop smsing and calling me, i mean it. I got so irritated with a guy who called me all the time, using DIFFERENT NUMBERS, and smsing me so many times. I swear i'm going straight to the police with black and white evidences of all previous smses and file for harrassment if he continues doing that. This affects my mental health and stress level so it is very serious.
I am not a mannequin. Did i say i was perfect? You don't need to tell me how shitty i look and bitch about me all the time. Even if i look like shit. It is not your problem.
Did I ask you to look at me? So what if i like taking pictures of myself. Did i ask you to look at me? Is it a crime to take pictures of myself? If you don't like me, just don't look at my pictures so you can shut the fuck up.
I am also not Aunt Agony. I have so many problems. It's just that i don't talk about them. So don't expect me to pity you and your problems all the time. Give me a break. I hardly rest. If i could rest, let me have some peace. I'm not obligated to listen to every lil bit of your problem.
I'm busy and i value my time. I don't like it when people waste my time and cancel appointments at the 11th hour. I could have used the time for other things.
Sorry for throwing my temper today. Had an extremely rough day. Hopefully things would get better this year...
“When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.”
