The Secret Life of Ashiie goes a little something like this.....

I was one of 'those' people who survived every possible obstacle that life throws at you, went through things that no human being should but still made it through with a positive attitude and appreciating life even more.

I'd dream about being recognised for my modelling, and was told from a family member "why do you even bother going to shoots etc, you're never going to get far!"

But that would just make me even more determined.

In late 2009 I knew exactly what I wanted out of life and even scored my amazing boyfriend (who is also a photographer), Alex, or known to you as Jungle Paparazzi.

An eventful year went by and in September 2010 I made some changes to my appearance.

Since then my modelling has taken off, I also have Alex to thank for all his support and for capturing every step of my journey, without his talent I wouldn't be able to share all my excitement with you.

2011 is definitely my year, with already succeeding:

*Miss Universe WA 2011 Finalist

*Girl Next Door 1st place

*Miss Hawaiian Tropics National Finalist (1st place in State)

* All Australian Girl Winner 1st place

And it's only the start of February!!!!!

So let this be the year I got to say, I TOLD YOU SO ;)

Love Ashiie xx
