ALS Ice Bucket Challnege X My TNPNF Fashion Spread X Late Night Chill

ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE

The Ice Bucket Challenge, sometimes called the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, is an activity involving dumping a bucket of ice water on someone's head to promote awareness of the disease Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and encourage donations to research. It went viralon social media during July–August 2014. In the US, many people participate for the ALS Association.

I have not done this challenge yet but I chanced upon MANY celebs doing this and here is a picture of Nathan Kress. Girls, y'all can thank me later. ;)

But I believe this took quite an ugly turn after some time.

There were people who did this challenge for the pure fun of it and modified it. The raising awareness for ALS kind of died off after a while. People were just having too much fun. It's nothing wrong, but these were some of the things I chanced upon.

1. Substituting cold water for scalding hot water as a prank

2. Messing with people with autism and throwing a pail full of spit, urine and feces

3. Changing the cold water to a bunch of food product like rice and ice cream

4. Throwing the bucket as well (especially of they're metallic and heavy) onto the participants head

These are just a few I chanced upon. It is fine to  have a little fun but never do forget the main thing, the purpose, the reason behind it. Don't lose sight of the meaning while having fun and don't do things to waste food and drinks and especially hurt people!

Well, it's just my opinion on this. I get the awareness part. I get the fun part but just find a BALANCE between those 2 and don't misuse the challenge.

FASHION SPREAD

This was my mini feature for the Bintan segement. My make up artist was using Mac products on my face to get me all glammed up for my photoshoot. 

And then.. we had our group photoshoot published. It was the centre fold!!! 

After this was August 29. A really good day! It was a Friday, my last UT and.. it was time for my very own fashion spread on The New Paper.

The Beauty Reshoot

The Bintan Shoot

The Subaru Shoot

This was what I instagrammed. The top was on the cover of the newspaper. 

It is really funny and cool that after all that I said for the interview questions, this was what they liked most. Me wanting to be a Wedding Planner! Hahaha!!!

Well, it is true, I do strive to become one. But till then, I'll be very contented with modelling!!!

It was so surreal to see my face on the newspaper and the Bintan Shoot was the poster pull out! I was so ecstatic! My friends were all really supportive. I wish my family was a little more though but it's hard to get the best of both worlds sometimes.

Well, if y'all would like to read and see me and also the other girls, go over to the website or even the facebook page and take a look!

Late Night Chill

Have you ever been in a state where you just wanna sneak out late in the night, go someplace near or far, either alone or with friend. Just to talk, chill, laugh, clear your mind and just relax and simply distress. 

Well, if you haven't felt like just running away for one night, you're probably lying to yourself.

It's fine to run away. It's okay to escape your problems. However, once you get some clarity, go back to your problems and find a solution to it.

I guess more about clarity in another blog...

Till then..
