Introduction:
“Hi, I’m Palestine, nice to meet you!”
Obviously I’m not the state of Palestine nor am I Palestinian but that is the Model United Nations caucusing intro for you right there. I’m a community college student and I love being in community college. I’m apart of the Model United Nations team and I love meeting people although I hate politics. I’m girly but I can be a tough cookie and an unsympathetic b. I love little kids and I truly love being nice. I’m warm and approachable unless people are rude right off the bat. First impressions are really important to me. I believe there is more to life than makeup and clothing hence the reason why I’m apart of MUN. I hate being self absorbed and ignorant but I’m a contradiction. Family is, above all, the most important and most cherished possession I have; I’ve broken friendships because people have disrespected my family. I don’t have a lot of friends but of the few that I do have, I love them with all my heart. I hate tears and crying…I’ll comfort you when you need me to but crying over a boy or things that is out of your control/stupid is something I’ll be ticked off at. My favorite colors are pink and purple; I love the beach; I love drugstore makeup; I love love corny jokes and pickup lines; I’m superfluous and talkative – got in trouble in schooll for talking too much; I love volunteering and the feeling you get from helping others out; I love driving on PCH and blasting my music; I am all about sunny days and walking along the pier in HB; I am a certified music loving whore; I started doing makeup at 10 and used to have to beg people to let me do their makeup. I love doing makeup because it makes me feel pretty on the inside…makeup for me is about making my face beautiful to back up the stuff I have on the inside. And lastly, I want to grow up to be a happy and content person :) I want to be a fashion magazine editor whiling traveling the world and working for the United Nations part time. And my reason for having such a long paragraph is because I do not have a blog and I’m talkative. (That’s like my whole life’s story in a nutshell.)
Why I want to represent DSK:
I like that DSK is not a big corporation out to just get our money and inflicting harm on something or someone…hopefully. I like that with DSK I can take on any persona/alter egos and still be true to what I like. I love my “Birdy’s Musical” necklace, this piece is very universal and I have a keen affinity to music and birds. I can be mysterious if I want to or I can pretend like I’m from Hawaii and be all sunny and cute. I can be seductive and act like I’m a parisienne. I can pretend like I’m a baby doll Lolita from Kera magazine. With DSK I can even live out (at least with makeup) my dream of being on a safari in Kenya. The only gripe I have with DSK is that the chains are so short for my neck…I had to use floss to extend the chain. I learned about DSK by way of youtube videos and blogs. I would like to represent DSK because owning something beautiful has inspired me to experiment with different looks and personas, and I would like to inspire others to be beautiful no matter what size or shape they are. I think I deserve to be a DSK model because I’m hot, no, wait, not just hot but smoking hot…but on a serious note, I want to be a DSK model because I like how one piece of jewelry has inspired me to be beautiful and big.

p. What your favorite feature? What’s your least favorite?
I love my eyes most because it’s plain but with a lil bit of make-up, circle lens, and false lashes even you would want to look deeply into my eyes all day and all night long. Actually, I also like my lips a lot too and I like almost all of me, at that. Least favorite…hmm, don’t have one because for the longest time people have been complaining to me about my weight and features, I feel like since people love to judge my features and weight, someone needs to love me for me and everything inch of me…so who better to love me then myself? Not to be conceited but I’m happy with all my features, good/bad, pretty/ugly.
q. How many languages can you speak, and which ones?
I can of course speak Vietnamese, but I can also wish you “Happy New Years” in Chinese, especially during Chinese New Years for all the red envelopes; tell you where I’m from in Spanish (after taking three years of Spanish); tell you random words in Korean and Japanese from watching all the sappy dramas; I can smack you down in English, and I can teach you how to curse in just about every language :) I’m a universal translator Baby!

Sleep, internet, eat, spending time with my little cousins and family, reading magazines, doing makeup.

I fear rollercoasters, especially Splash Mountain at Disneyland. I also fear my Vietnamese father and his ploy to kill my weekends by having me pluck all the stubborn weeds in the garden. I don’t think these are curable and the last one is kinda unavoidable at the moment. Oh, and hospitals and people in pain are constant fears.
