Wedding Jitters - Of weddings and big dreams

These days, I find it rather therapeutic and fun to be drawing and sketching dresses when I’m on a break. To add flowers at the waist, colourful beadings at the collar, scattered ruffles at the skirt and as far and creative as your mind can take you. It’s really nice! Is that how designers really feel? Like truly?

All ready for Kak Long's Reception :)

Sketching away as far as your imagination can take you is sometimes like dreaming the impossible. The greatest satisfaction hits you when what you had sketched initially come out exactly how you had in mind. If it doesn’t, it still is a piece that you will definitely feel satisfied about, in the most unique way or another. Just like achieving a dream you thought was once impossible.  

Some inspiring statements I heard this week :

A combination of self belief, motivation, encouragement and most importantly the readiness to accept failure is truly the best recipe to success. The society we live in today (read: country specific) is not open to failures. Once you fail, you’re a gone case. Surely with this mentality, you’ll never have the guts to try anything new.

If you ask enough people, you can usually find someone who will advise you to do what you were going to do anyway. You KNOW what’s right.
