Growing up was not easy for me, I grew up without a father, I was mostly alone cause my mom had to work hard to take care of me. I changed three high schools which made me pretty socially awkward and I struggled with my self esteem and personal identity - many many times The worst news broke out to me when my mom was diagnosed with RP- Retinitis Pigmentosa and went blind recently. Life became even tougher as now I have to be her support & her eyes. There were countless moments we’d fight, countless times we broke down, countless times we almost gave up. It was a painful wake up call, and I didn’t want to accept it... But deep down, I just knew that this will make me stronger for myself & the people around me if I beat it! Because this life chose me, I decided everyday I will stand strong with FAITH! I will focus on what I could do rather than what I couldn’t. To keep improving and strive to be the best version of myself. MY ADVERSITY...MY MISSION! A mission to FIGHT and a mission to stand and speak for those who are fighting disability and those who suffer in silence. The journey for many is NEVER easy. With so much adversity in our society today, a lot of us avoid talking about our mental health and what we are struggling with. But I’m here to say, your story is UNIQUE and YOU CAN move mountains! 🏔 As a finalist of Miss Universe Malaysia 2020, I hope sharing this would be able to help inspire anyone out there, to TURN YOUR PAIN INTO POWER. And as always, let’s be the light in someone’s darkness whenever we can ❤️✨ #PositivityForDisability #mentalhealth #beautybeyondyou #missuniversemalaysia #TNMUM20 #MUM20 @missuniversemalaysia • • Official Makeup Academy Partner: @makeup_miracle #makeup_miracle #makeupacademy #makeupmiraclextnmum20 Official Hair Partner: @shawncutlergroup #shawncutlergroup #shawncutlerxtnmum20
