So I'm assuming most of you are aware of my latest review blink.gif!? Don't worry I'm not going to go on about it at all, thanks to AndyJ - my side of the story has been put across wub.gif.

 

This is more of a thank you and to allow some fellow PP members a closer insight into Emerald. Firstly, I just want to say a BIG thank you to the WL's and PP members/clients that defended me both publicly in the thread itself and via PM. There was truly no need at all to PM me and console me over the issue, and I truly am thankful wub.gif. Special thanks to Paris, Kelly Raines, and Emma English, who went out of there way to show me their support, and to confirm the ideal that not every WL in this industry is fucked up, and to Assfiend, MelbGuy 1980, Ruprect, f15eagle, and Diesel ---> whose words and public support mean more than you can imagineblush.gif! Thank you again!

 

Now, for those of you who have met me/know me personally, most of you would think Emerald is "Miss Confident" - well you're wrong blink.gif. There is really no need to share this information with all of you (and I don't know if I should unsure.gif lol), but I'm going to for my own peace of mind. At Christmas, I was 30kg's heavier......shock horror I know! For all those who don't believe me, here is proof that I've added as an attachment (now please ignore the fact I'm blind drunk and look like an idiot lol). That's a HUGE difference in such a short time happy.gif! The truth of the matter is that I didn't go on some miracle Jenny Craig type of weight loss regime or go and get some lunchtime liposuction fix. No, I actually suffered from a rare type of blood poisoning about 6 months ago (similar to typhus) that made me REALLY sick - to the point where I was in hospital for almost a month. It attacked my liver and effects of the poison are slightly evident in skin and other areas of my body. Basically, it nearly killed me.... It caused me to lose almost half my body weight, and become even more self conscious of the way I look. The poison is long gone, but the effects are with me forever, and still causes me to suffer from extreme exhaustion (resulting to me being bed-ridden for days unable to move) from time to time.

 

 

I've always been very self conscious about how I look, and this latest fiasco didn't just upset me due to the flat out lies it portrayed about my service (as people aren't stupid --> as the end result showed wub.gif), but because it was a personal attack into an issue I'm very touchy about sad.gif. Now, I don't want people to start going, "but you're gorgeous" etc., that's not the purpose of this blog entry, I just wanted people to know about how far 'Emerald' has come and how much this hurt.

 

Well, that's my 2 bob and sad story for today blink.gif! I really don't know why I felt I needed to tell the PP world, but hopefully this will clear up any questions/thoughts, and put the real 'Emerald' (that only a few knew about) out there. It's past my bedtime, so goodnight PP blush.gifcool.gifblush.gif

Being out of the loop, I've only just gotten on the same page here.

 

Emerald (I once knew a girl with the same name!), I think you've handled yourself with candour & bravery. The truth is, we can't be everything to everyone. Every once in awhile, a person will come along who will try to obliterate your confidence in order to bolster their own.

 

The trick is not to let them see you bleeding on the inside. Just keeping soldiering on, past the hail of bullets, to safety on the other side of the trench....

 

In the immortal words of Muriel Hesslop, "Success is the best revenge."

 

Trust me. ;)
