The thoughts of modelling just perished when I reached puberty and I discovered the world of ... ACNE. I could be a walking acne exhibit - I have the whole series and collection to 'boast' about. Now, things got a little better. You could call me an upclose and personal exhibit of the 'moon face'. Also known as crater face. Yes - Life isn't all as it's Planned.
I have no idea why I would wanna be an immigration officer though. All I could remember is I love stamping hard on random pieces of paper. That was basically it.
Instead I worked in the creative industry for years. I have the creative streak in me but yes the hours put in, the crazy fucking deadlines put a toll on me as I asked myself over and over again - What is life? Staying overnight and stressing out about deadlines every single day?
Which leads to a funny direction I'm in now - an ESL teacher. Truth be told, when I got out of college, I never wanted to be a teacher. That was a childhood dream but yes, what do children know? You see your teacher appearing all powerful and superior in class and you just wanna be one of them.
I'll be the first to admit- I don't have perfect English as you guys probably can tell. Like most ESL teacher, I dare say, I became one of the statistics cos of my desire to travel and to venture out of my country, the sunny Singapore. I found myself in Istanbul, Turkey and now, blogging away in this cold, rainy winter. Winter + rain is the perfect formula for depression. That's when it striked me - BLOGGING. You'll hear more from me.
XO, Macy
