I got my brows microbladed about 6 months ago and just wanted to post a quick update on what they look like now. The pigment that was used to shade my brows actually promoted hair growth so where I was lacking eyebrow hair at the ends, they’re actually now filled with strands of them! Here’s…
2018 has seen some tragedies. In July, my grandpa in Taiwan passed away, and a week later I was let go from my job. Then earlier this month in December, I was laid off from a position I barely held for 5 months, all due to company restructuring. I got rejected multiple times from companies…
I have something of an advantage when it comes to job hunting, being a recruiter. It can also be perceived as a disadvantage but just trying to be positive here! As a recruiter, I care a lot about the candidate experience and try to be more empathetic to those looking for new opportunities. I’m also…
This year is coming to an end, which means we need to prep for a new start in the new year! I recently went to the chiropractor and discovered a boatload of bad habits that have really misaligned my entire back and spine. I am now a lot more mindful about my health since it’s…
**note: this post is not going to be the most organized, but it’s going to give you a day-by-day view of the aftercare process – which means a lot of bad selfies. I did a ton of research prior to my microblading appointment and thought those blog posts other women wrote about their experiences with…
When you’ve been conditioned all your life to believe that you’re not skinny enough, you need to eat less, no junk food, or you’re reminded that your thighs got bigger every time you visited your parents…it can really take a toll on your self esteem. I have a separate private insta account that I use…

The biggest differences are that microblading inserts pigments under your skin rather than ink, and is semi-permanent rather than permanent. Microblading is also a newer form of semi-permanent makeup and it ends up looking more natural since artists use a hand-held tool that have fork tines-looking…
You have a public Instagram account and can’t control who follows you. You get a notification and realize with dread that someone you don’t want to follow you, has clicked on that button. I mean, s/he could see your profile anytime, but now your posts appear on his/her feed. Do you have followers that you…
I was first writing the blog post about tips on a great resume. (You can read all about that here.) Then cover letters came up and I figured it would be best to write a separate post. Otherwise, that other post will be super long! So you might be wondering whether you should include a…
I’m currently trying to build my career in HR / Recruiting and spent the last 2 years or so working as an in-house full-cycle recruiter. That just means that I work for a single company doing the whole shebang when it comes to sourcing, interviewing, coordinating, and onboarding candidates. Though I don’t have as much…
