‘Every Cinderella has her midnight’ – Thomas S.Monson

A lot of the time I feel like Cinderella, I dress up in expensive clothes, have people do my hair and make-up and spend my days doing photo shoots or flying around the world. But then the work day finishes and off comes the make up and away go the designer clothes, and it’s back to reality.

Sometimes everything feels like a blur, it all moves so fast I can hardly keep up, let alone remember what I’ve just done. I’ve accomplished so much but in the heat of the moment I wonder if I realise how much I’ve missed.
The idea of going to uni in a few weeks makes me feel I’m running out of time. whenever I stand still long enough to think, I feel as though I’m wasting the small amount I’ve got left.
I feel like I’m leading two lives and sometimes it’s hard to find a balance. I’m torn between what I should do, and what I want to do, and to be honest sometimes I can’t even tell which is which.

I feel like a lot of people have been through this, maybe not under the same circumstances as me, but having to decide what you want and how you want to do it are decisions that most of us have to make at some point.
I’m incredibly blessed to lead the life I do, and to have been able to experience what I have. But it does make my laugh when people describe it as ‘perfect’.
