Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder
i wonder how people define beauty. a plump looking lady may be called the most beautiful to a man who is deeply in love with her. an ugly woman may be considered most charming when she's gota big heart. so what's beauty? is it just the outward appearance? many a times, people deem it as unimportant. many rationalise beauty as something extra, something bonus - because it has always been tied to the physical attraction, or in essence one's looks.

sometimes i feel it's pretty sad to be called: 'Pretty-From-Afar' but 'Far-From-Pretty'! oh!~ what a shame to be termed as that? however, i have begun to realise that beauty starts from the heart. to me, having a big heart for others is far more beautiful than anything else. so, do you have a big heart? i'm trying to cultivate one right now.

it brings me lots of joy and happiness to have found special people around me with big hearts. and hey, i just wana reaffirm you today my friend ~ you are beautiful, it's true! i have always not been confident to tell others that i'm beautiful. i never felt that i've good looks, or that i've an extraordinary big heart. i am thankful to have found friends who appreciate the way gracie is.

btw, here's me in my most glamorous outfit so far! haha~ took these make-over photos at Jean Yip. please do not comment if you feel these makes you puke! if pictures make you feel nauseous, feel free to navigate away from this page...;)
