Teach other people how to treat you.

This is the lesson I've learned after a disaster took place last Sunday.

I was having my photoshoot for my finals. We were required to do seven looks on which we should spend an hour for each. What I did was, made a schedule that would consist of 45 minutes per look. Things didn't turned out as planned. My model acted as if she knew make up more than I do. As I apply a product on her face, she keeps on complaining that her skin was uneven. She even told me that, " I've been in this indutry for 16 years, kaya alam ko kung sino yung maganda o panget na mag make up. " Hearing these words make me want to strangle her. But then I again, I tried act professional as I could. I gave her the sponge and asked her to go to the comfort room to conceal all the flaws in her face. She did as she was told. Then, I worked on my other models.

I was in the middle of my fourth look, when she entered the room and insisted that I redo the her make up. I asked her to go directly to the studio. Then, my aunt told me that she was talking to my teacher. I entered the studio when my teacher told me to go back to the make up lab and continue with my work. Then, they continued to have their private conversation. To make matters worse, she was calling my mom pala and make sumbong how terrible my work was. Then she told my aunt that she doubts if I would finish all the seven looks. I went to the CR and cried, then this model came and told me that it is okay to quit. I wiped my tears and told her, "No, I won't quit."

At the end of the day, I was able to finish all of them, hindi nga lang pulido. Well, at least, I proved her wrong. For all I know, that b*tch is going down.
