WELCOME TO MY LIFE .

Other girls in the competition says a lot of bad things about her, she was always criticized by the judges,saying she lacks, this and that..but YOU know what? she just took it all positively.

I remember her saying to turn the negative into a positive. Photo after photo she delivered, she believed in herself and at times she questions things and gives suggestions to the photography and styling team...And I think it's smart, A good photograph should be a collaboration of all the people involved, and that includes the model's thoughts. A good model is a smart model who is confident about her/himself but not too cocky either.

Her beauty radiates from within. In Modelling, just like singing or acting, the melodies or lines are best expressed when YOU really feel the true emotions.

There is so much truth expressed in her eyes...and it pierces the soul of someone who gazes at it...I should know..:) Coz it takes one to know one.

Yes, people will throw you a lot of lemons and tomatoes to bring you down.
And i guess Alicia just made a sumptuous and healthy salad out of it to keep that beautiful body...

and eventually made her win the coveted SPORTS ILLUSTRATED modelling contract .

I can relate so much her, and you know what, she got other projects to model for big brands,even after that, she still strives to be better....that I really admire....
she even joined the search for the new Victoria Secret Angel in 2009...however she didnt win, I wonder why , she's the prettiest of the bunch of contestants, and none of them could hold a candle to Alicia..its OK I know she did her best and that's what's important...and she never stepped on anyone's toes....but nevertheless to me she is always a winner..an inspiration...a role model..in and out..:)

Her struggles in life is what she used to be a more positive and caring person she is today.

I love you Alicia. YOU are a part of how strong ,beautiful , caring and confident I am now.
I hope YOU can read this one day... It would be my utmost pleasure to someday photograph you.
Thank you.
