like finally! i have been wanting to update my blog for the longest time possible, but lately i have been so busy with work and life, that i am surprised myself, that i could find time to breathe! and the reason that i am able to update is because i am on long medical leave for my wisdom and molar teeth surgical extraction! speaking of that, this has got to be the worst thing i had to ever endure! the pain is so excrutiating that no amount of vocabulary can describe the feeling. and i am not even talking about the peri-surgical pain, but more of the post-surgical pain!! it has been four days now and my right cheek is still swollen with intermittent pain. i didnt expect that such pain would last so long! and i have been diligent in taking my antibiotics too, because, God forbids, the last thing that i want, on top of this pain, is the possible risk of infection. 0_0
anyhoos, in my previous post i was supposed to be blogging about lots of things, but i will go straight to that little secret that i have been keeping. i mean, its way past aidilfitri so i dont see the purpose of updating the raya outing for the sole purpose of updating, right? so like i said again, let me just go straight to the point.
right, so as you can see from the pictures below, that is that little secret that i have been keeping these months. and i am very excited to say that i am a proud graduant of my make up artistry class!

| dramatic butterfly-inspired look |

| the au-naturale malay bride |
i did these two looks for my exams as were required to do a bridal make up and a creative look of our own. my biggest challenge for these two looks would be covering up the blemishes and pimples of these two beautiful young models of mine. but alhamdullillah, i am glad that the pseudo-perfectionist in me paid off! i scored pretty well for both looks and i am proud of myself for being able to deliver what is expected from the teacher and judges. the judging was strict because the boss of the agency/school is very particular about perfection! but everything was worth-it! i had fun and my models certainly did too because i have promised them a B&Js ice cream treat soon!
so, this is the other thing that i have been busy with, people! and its a growing passion! but of course, for now i have to do this as a freelance first, because i am still passionate about my first love - nursing! maybe who knows, in the near future, i can somehow combine the two into one? that'll be something to think about!
but in any case, i welcome any feedback or even offer(s) to allow me to transform you or that someone for that special day/event. :)
