#Throwback #MSBP2017 Shin Min Daily News 新明日报 Interview. 🙏
"I am not what happened to me, but who I choose to become." 💪 - Carl Jung-
Many of you have been asking me about the viral photo that is going around social media and also on the front page of the local chinese newspapers. Yes, I am aware of that and I just want to thank all my family members and friends for the concern, as well as those who are sending me their support & words of encouragement during this intense period of time. It has been rather overwhelming, but it will definitely not put me down. 🙆
Honestly speaking, it was a challenge for someone with low self-esteem issues in the past like me to step out of my comfort zone to pursue something like this for myself. But ever since my Uncle passed away from cancer this year in March, I told myself that life is too short & unpredictable. Therefore, I do not want to live my life with regrets. I want to pursue my passion while I still can. 😊
Being a premature baby, I was really thin and small in size as compared to the people who are of the same age as me. I often get teased even before being in this pageant. So by being in this pageant, I wish to convey to these people that being in a pageant is not all about the size and beauty, it is also about the personality, confidence, courage & compassion. ❤ Yes I understand that looks should be the utmost criteria in a pageant from how the society sees it, but I also believe that it is something that is very subjective & everyone will have different views/opinions about it yeah? 🙏
Nonetheless, through this experience, I have also learnt to treat these comments as a platform to help me grow. Because with these comments, I know where I can improve myself to become a better person (Eg: To gain some weight of course)! " 👍
In conclusion, I believe that "what doesn't kill us will definitely makes us stronger". Hence, I am totally looking forward to all the bonding activities with the ladies, as well as the makeovers/transformations that has been in place for each and everyone of us in #MSBP2017. JIAYOU LADIES AND DON'T BE TOO AFFECTED, BECAUSE WE'VE GOT EACH OTHER TO TIDE THROUGH THIS TOGETHER ALRIGHT! 😘
[P.S. Credits to "新明日报"。Sorry for the long caption though, I just want to elaborate a little bit more about what I've said during the interview for those we do not understand the chinese words in the article. 😅]
