First thought: Ohhhhh! A combination of “Is this really happening?” Did I really see my name? When I saw
the announcement of the winner, there was a flash moment where I thought “there
might some mistake!” – but after the initial flash of confusion I was overcome
with such a feeling of elation and gratitude. It was one of the best feelings I
have ever experienced, honestly.
For the last few days my friends had been telling me that I was going to
win. Of course, I did not believe them because I don’t want to expect then be upset
if I don’t win. So, my first thought was, “I can’t believe they are right!”
First
reaction: I was jumping and clapping. I may look intense at that moment
but I didn’t care if I was out of my poise. I was just liberally expressing my
joy and happiness.
I could really not believe I had won. It was a very pleasant surprised;
words are not enough to explain my feelings. My heart was bouncing, trembling
and overwhelm. This is a great chance to be involved in and gives CP Trendies
fans an opportunity to read my blog.
When CP Trendies informed me that they’ve chosen me, it was out of pure
joy and excitement that I’ve felt. It is an honor to be selected, and I was
lucky enough that the people voted for me. I have been a winner in the past,
but I am really proud to have won for this specific competition. Winning the
contest came at a significant moment for me personally. I began blogging later
in my “career,” and starting over at the beginning has at times been intimidating.
A few days ago, I was having a serious conversation with myself about whether I
had started too late to ever be able to make a career of it. I asked myself,
“When is the moment that a person knows it is time to alter dreams for the sake
of expediency?” Being acknowledged reminded me that the best art comes out of
love for the craft, and in that type of love there is no easy pathway; no
pragmatics to fall back upon. To be honored by my peers, who all struggle and
dream in the same ways, is a touching reminder that though we can’t please
everyone, there are still people out there who care and believe in me.
Hence, to be recognized means so much more. Blogging is the ultimate
expression of an emotional moment. Yet, I am extremely flattered, knowing that
I’m still a novice blogger. I wrote a lot of short stories (mostly it’s a crazy
little stories about me) but I’ve really spent the majority of my time focusing
on fashion designing—drawing fashion croquis and dresses. However, constructing
full-length blog is still kind of a brave new world to me. I was so incredibly
excited to even be considered as the official blogger (particularly to write my
annotations about CP Trendies beauty products like makeup - which was so
personally inspiring to me), and it really confirmed for me there will always
be a room for new, curious, different, occasionally wacky, but always bold
blogger.
The moment
of truth, it’s time for me to face it. I feel grateful to be the official
blogger of one of the most prominent and high-status brand in the industry such
as CP Trendies. Thanks to CP
Trendies team for offering me a fun opportunity. I am the winner because of
you! I would also like
to thank everyone who takes the time to vote for me during the contest. It’s
the little acts of kindness like yours that make the world a vivid place. You
may not always get direct feedback for the time and effort you spend, but it’s never lost. Your act of
bounteousness is a wise investment that always produces dividends, sometimes in
most unexpected ways. God bless you all for the gift of encouragement you give
to me. I appreciate it very much. Thank you for your words of wisdom and never
ending support. I can’t express how much it means to me to have you supporting
and praying for me. Now, I abundantly feel my victory!
I am so gratified to be a
part of CP Trendies’ objective. This is the type of mission I
always hope to be involved with, the type of a certain goal I am always trying
to create, and somehow it’s the time to value my best endeavor. I am delight
and really thankful.
