After 6 months , here i am again ... part 34

It has been approximately half a year ever since I wrote my last personal blog . Well , I guess it’s time again …

Hi everybody , I am Leng Yein , a 22 years old girl who came all the way from a small town , Kuantan where everybody just seemed to hate me so much the second they wave goodbye to me but were seen smiling the second I turned back and wave again *crazy*  Guess what, now after a year staying alone in this big city , heart of Malaysia , Kuala Lumpur , the same yet not so different situation had repeated itself again I guess …

I remembered when I had to leave all my businesses behind in Kuantan , family problems caused me owing the bank so much , came down alone to this place , having no place to stay , with RM600 in my pocket yet still got cheated , being runaway by my agent being the pianist in Sunway Pyramid Tower Hotel , so I gave up on the clean money and chose my path to do some dinner jobs here n there, having some sad thoughts alone at night at the cheap backpackers hotel along petaling street , be-friended all kind of women and girls all along the way , man , im glad it’s over now …

The birth of Models Magazine , for incidents that I’ve gone through myself all along the way , I’ve decided to start something to help those who’re going through the same path like me , at least , to let them know that they’re not left alone when they almost give up on everything . Things changes all the time , and that changes a person too … changes the way they look at things , changes the way they do things , changes their life , others life as well … life is not just about ourselves , its meaningful when you have a big family …

My life was just about myself back then , coz I felt that no one truly appreciate things that I have done for them , and backstab me after they got things that hey want from me . I felt so used all the time . But then I joined friendster , and impressively this little room changes me a lot . Not the FANS profile , but friends … Really nice people around the world gathering around my little room , keeping in touch all the time . I had never met most of my friends here , but most of them made me feel that my life are worth staying on , grounded and appreciated . Whenever I lost myself here n there , there’s only a click away to find myself again , here … And I start to feel that friends are not necessary those whom u met since you’re a toddler , but those who sincerely care when things happened to you , friends are there when u close your eyes , and you know that you’re not alone …

So to all the people who hated me even before they met me in person , it is ok . Coz I believe that the same thing happen to you too … Life goes on you know … the circle of karma too … Everyone has more about the same experience in life . States of life when u felt that everything ur parents says doesn’t seemed to click , everything ur boyfriend says seemed so right , states when everybody seemed to hate you or anti you , states where you seemed to be in the limelight all the time and everybody just loves you , states where everything seemed so unfair to you , states where everything u do had been accepted and your dream come true , states where you’d wished everybody understands the things that you’re doing , states when you don’t care about anything others says about you anymore , states where you start thinking hecking everybody and yourself is the only thing that matters to you , states where you’ll do anything just to get what you want , states where you start cursing for hours on little things that you’re unhappy of , states where you wanna kill yourself but you wanna kill that person who hurt u first before u kill urself , states where you cant even remember how many states there is in your own country , yes ? So , don’t be upset when few people around you want to ruin your life so bad . They’ll do everything to make everybody hates you . It’s ok . Someday somehow , same things happens to them and they’ll just blame others . They wont understand , coz if they did, they wouldn’t be backstabbers . Smile coz you are not like them =) Even if u don’t have that many friends as those people do , soon or later you’ll find yourlself a lot of true friends …

I’ve learned to do everything by myself , probably because too many people try to fail everything that I do , so I try my best not to allow myself failing myself again … Models magazine , from bottoms up , I’ve learned a lot from the people around me … And through this project , I am thankful because I’ve stepped a step closer to the mirror where I can see who had changed for the step that I’ve made. I am very thankful to all those who stood aside and watched me going through all the dilemma and being supportive when others try to fail this project . I heard people saying I am just trying to use other new faces to be famous ß Aih ! , I have sugar daddy behind my back ß thanks for imagining my perfect life , I am a good pretender ß thank you , I am very manipulative ß clap clap clap ! , that my money came from someone / somewhere else ß your bank ? , some people are trying to psycho people around me to stay away from the project … it’s a bit heartbreaking but it is ok , people have their own right to believe what they chose to believe so I’ll just stay out from the conflict I guess .

To those people who wanted to see Models Magazine fail so fast , have mercy please . It was out in market only for a day now . Can’t you only start cursing after , maybe a week ? At least a little chance for the poor project … The worst you can do is not buying it , but please don’t say that the new faces inside are not good enough , complaining about the new faces’ standards and qualities . Did you not know the actual purpose of the magazine ? To give a chance to those people who had been treated like dirt , like they’re nobody , like they’re never good enough . This is a chance where they can stand up for themselves and speak out to the world that they are worth something , that they are trying to change into someone better , they are good people. They are sincere , they are friendly , lovely , caring , loving . They learn , and they appreciate … If you keep teasing them , you are not making their life any better , do you want them to stay being low self-esteem all the time ? Why ? So that you feel good coz you know that you are better than them ? Why are you so mean ? If you don’t like to see them changing into someone better , you are so selfish . Imagine if you are one of them , how would u feel ? Put urself in other’s shoes sometimes … get the whole picture …

I do not mind how you go around telling people about me ( kindly remember that you do not know me and I do not know you too ) but please be kind for once not to bring those new faces down . For so long so many people had been mean to them , they’re suffering from being low self-esteem , always thinking that they are not good enough and they had to quietly suffer all that alone . Just for once , please , let them have a chance to breath and feel happy , and smile . They do not want to be a supermodel , they just want to be appreciated and feel good about themselves , that’s all . Is it too much to ask ? Have a heart , please …

To all the kind hearted people , public , medias and photographers , thanks for attending all the events of the new faces . You might not know what they’ve told me , with tears and laughter , they are very very happy , thankful and grateful for everything that you’ve done for them … I know some of you got fired by strangers who doesn’t support the new faces but all your effort are deeply appreciated by all of us . We will always stay grounded and remember all your kindness toward us . These new faces promised to keep changing and bringing their best to you , better and better as time comes . If there’s any faults during our process of growing up together in this family , I sincerely apologize to all of you . I know there is no excuse for making faults but I really do hope that you can forgive us because we admit that we are not perfect and we might make mistakes here and there along the way but we will accept our faults and we will learn , and not repeat our mistakes again … give us a chance … we will improve …

To all the people out there around the world , I know that some of you are too far to come all the way here to Malaysia to give some sincere support for the new faces but your love and care will always be appreciated and remembered .

It had been a meaningful journey throughout the whole process of the making of the first issue of Models Magazine … the ‘’behind-the-scene’’ and ‘’things-that-u’ll-never-ever-know and feel’’ experiences had left me so many unforgettable stories … and so many meaningful lesson and experiences in life for me …

Words can never tell how grateful we are to all of you … we owe you a lot , and we shall repay you by being a sincere and genuine friend … a family … for life … no matter where we ended up to be in the future … we are a family … and this family is growing … with love , care and sincerity … trying to make a difference by touching other’s life … learning to accept , care and love …

If everybody learned to love , this world would be so beautiful …

Love Always ,

Leng Yein

ps : To all our team who helped us along the way in completing the first issue of Models Magazine , YOU , made this happen ... i sincerely thank you so so so much and more ...
