Finding her niche

The middle class syndrome.  The lack of enterprising spirit. A full embrace of employment.  Brain drains.  Pension money.  Retirement uncertainties.  I was raised in that generation.  The height of comfort zones.  

My time is modern day parenting.  There is technology, system and best practices, re-engineering,  more openness, more independence, less of spoon feeding, but none of those sugar coated spoons.  I am not a tiger mom but I practice tough love.

My moral authority kinda falls short in areas of fiscal management J. I was born extravagant, and I actually sincerely plan to die fashionably with it.  I’m a bad example with money but my gifts are different, my skill sets, too.  God perfectly knows how to temper my shortcomings. I yield.

And just may be what she lacks in some other things (from a parent's point of view), this may be her place under the sun, where she commensurates or may be reach much greater heights.

WATCH OUT SOON:  Some make-up brands from the US ;-) ... Mom's actually trying on her first box by September 11, of primers and glitters.

jusz gettin a lil obsessed with my brows.  splurgin' on colors, highlights, mascara and visits to  upscale brow bar.  This base will somehow help set the drama ;)

about 2 decades ago, i thought Mac had that tiny pink mascara you can actually use to accentuate the tippest of your lashes.  i was desperate in Rustan's, and it was frustrating.  Panyong and I we were trying to date (LOL trying to date haha), and so I wanted to show off.  I settled for a fiercely red Mac lippy instead.  oh well Panyong and I went pfffttt  ... and I still insist to get something purple and shimmering right at the edge of my lashes.
