my good friend Stef Prescott is an actress by day and a make up artist at night. LOL. kidding aside stef is not just a good actress but also a make up enthusiast and she’s REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD at it. the fact is she wanted to become a make up artist and put up her own salon and I bet she will become successful.

here are some samples….

anyway, yesterday we were supposed to do a pictorial but my boyfriend aka the photographer was not available. stef went to my place (she’s always at my place ) and accompanied us to UST Hospital to check on my cousin who gave birth. the whole  time we were there she insisted that she do my make up even without a photographer. we got back at my place around 11pm and voila she was already carrying her BIG make up kit. to all you guys who dont know stef personally that girl can be very persistent. we took some pictures using my x10 and he blackberry. kaya winner ang make up fail ang camera

in a few hours i will be 23 and i think i am having a quarter-life crisis!! let me explain first what quarter-life crisis is. according to www.ask.com “The quarterlife crisis, or QLC, is essentially a period of anxiety, uncertainty and inner turmoil that often accompanies the transition to adulthood.” in short, this is the time where we have to figure out who we are and where were going.we feel unsure about the future. the big question is what does the future holds for us? are we going to be successful?

there are manyattributes  of a quarter-life crisis and here are some of the lists i feel right now:

• insecurity regarding the fact that their actions are meaningless
• insecurity regarding present accomplishments

• disappointment with one’s job
• loss of closeness to high school and college friends
• loneliness

and the strongest sentiment i have is

• a sense that everyone is, somehow, doing better than oneself.

i don’t mean to give out a negative vibes but this is exactly how feel. maybe i am having birthday jitters?

i do think that all of my friends are doing better than me. my showbiz friends obviously are getting more projects while my college friends  are either taking up law, medicine or masteral. sometimes i wonder am i going to be successful. what has the universe in store for me? the people who loves me  kept on reminding me that i can do so much more and that i can do other things if acting career will not work out. i agree with them because soon i will have my diploma. i am just not confident enough. i am afraid to step outside the box,  to leave my comfort zone.

crossroad? yes i am in a point in my life whether i should pursue acting or take another road. both are uncertain.. i wanted to both an i wanted to do a lot of things -I WANTED TO DO MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!

you are a beautiful, smart, strong & independent woman so don’t ever let them get you down!

women bring balance to the relationship but it doesn’t mean that men can step on their dignity.
