My name is Meng Jia, twenty-five.

I am terrifically skinny, not because I influenced by the ‘beauty ideal’ in society, but simply because I don’t have time to eat properly. I wake up early every morning for work and busy all day until late in the evening.

Heavy eyeliner is part of my daily make up, not because I try to make my eyes look bigger in what society find attractive, but plainly to draw the attention up and away from the dark circles under my tired eyes. Served as PR junior-staff of JYP Nations, I don’t have much time to rest, the money may be little but it’s from my own sweat.

I am young and have my own income. I feel satisfied because I can pay my own necessity and I feel y after paying my taxes. I think I don’t need anything else.

My name is Meng Jia and I am proud of myself.
