Stepping Out of My Comfort Zone

When I first started out at my new school, during the last day of orientation to be exact, a guy from Social Board approached me and asked me to join an in-campus competition.

I, of course, upon knowing what it is, laughed out loud. But since the guy said I have to go through an interview process before it is all finalised, I agreed to it. I thought it would be funny. Me, Aqilah, join such competition? Totally out of character.

I told my sister and cousins about it. Thinking they would see the humor in it. They didn't. In fact, they pretty much threatened me to join this thing, put all my effort in, and win it. Or suffer their wrath.

So, I went to the interview, got accepted.



I, Aqilah Zaiyanie, the girl who doesn't own a single skirt, likes to wear tee, jeans and boots, couldn't be bothered about moisturiser or toner or all those skin products, is a finalist for the Miss INTI 2012 competition.

Go on. Laugh all you want. Get it over with. Most of my close friends already did.

When you are done, please click here and vote for my picture. Facebook Likes are worth 5% to the final results on the crowning of the Mr & Ms INTI.

What? I was in competitive sport before, that means I don't like to lose. So, do your part and help me!

Why did I join this event, you ask? Apart from the fear of my cousins' wrath, I thought it would be fun. At least, somewhere along the future, I would look back, and laugh at myself. We don't really have to wait long for that, I am already laughing at myself. It is an experience. When will I get the chance to do this again if not now, right?

So, again. Click  here  and vote! Do your part!
Thank you!
