For the past week, I've been running about under the scorching sun, attending meetings after meetings with potential sponsors - hair, nails, facial, and food. Really, it's every blogger's dream but last night, I sent out a mass email apologizing and rejecting their offers. Felt a little clench in my heart (and wallet), but I know it was the right thing to do.
Of course, it would be amazing if I got sponsored for all these things because who doesn't like to be pampered? But doing them would mean less (or no) time for the things I truly enjoy and want to do. If I have to churn out advertorials periodically, it would eat into the time I have reserved for voluntary work and writing for the magazine. These are the things I am passionate about now and even though I am not doing the most glamorous things, they will bring me somewhere someday.
P/s: And let's face it, you know how lazy I get when it comes to blogging. Lol.
P/s/s: Special shout-out to the best boyfriend in the world for being my chauffeur whenever he was in Singapore, though you were completely useless when I asked for your advice: "I don't know. Too much responsibility if I decide for you." No. Help. At. All. But you are still the best.
