Ikinuwento ni Jinri Park na nagtatrabaho siya ngayon bilang isang waitress sa Australia, kasabay ng paglalarawan ng kaniyang 30s bilang “turning point” sa kaniyang buhay.

Sa kaniyang Instagram, makikita na nakasuot ng apron si Jinri at may tag na “trainee,” at inanunsyo niyang nagtatrabaho siya ngayon sa isang restaurant.

“My 30s: A turning point in my life,” panimula ni Jinri.

“If I had to describe my 20s in a word it would be glamour. From all the fun times I had during my college days, just drinking and clubbing with my friends to becoming a radio jock, model, actress and host, it’s definitely been exciting. I had the opportunity to be in front of the mic and camera, having people doll me up and living very comfortably. Not saying that it was all fun, I had my fair share of being a newbie in the industry, heartbreaks, hardships etc (just as everyone else). But when I look back now, I can definitely say I lived my life to the fullest,” dagdag niya.

Naiba na raw ang buhay niya mula nang lumipat siya sa Australia, pero hindi rin ito naging madali para sa kaniya.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

My 30s: A turning point in my life If I had to describe my 20s in a word it would be glamour. From all the fun times I had during my college days, just drinking and clubbing with my friends to becoming a radio jock, model, actress and host, it’s definitely been exciting. I had the opportunity to be infront of the mic and camera, having people doll me up and living very comfortably. Not saying that it was all fun, I had my fair share of being a newbie in the industry, heartbreaks, hardships etc(just as everyone else). But When I look back now, I can definitely say I lived my life to the fullest. Now that I’m in my 30s, life has changed 180! I got married, moved to Australia, and now...got a job! For this past week I worked as a trainee for a restaurant being a waitress (I did graduate with a degree in HRM and worked also at Your Local for about a year as a Maitre d). Honestly when I moved to Sydney I didn’t know what I wanted to do. I felt like I was back to zero, with not knowing what career path I’d want to take. I didn’t feel like I fit in that glamorous life of being a model anymore, and wanted to move past it to something I would grow into. Maybe even spend the rest of my life doing. After months of thinking and discussing with family, I got to choose something I thought would be a good match for my strengths and personality. I can’t tell you right now but will definitely update everyone once it starts! So for now, I need to earn my tuition fee to get a degree for that job I want in the future(tuition fees for international students are extremely expensive here!!!). I’ve already met some awesome pinoy guests at the restaurant I work in and I was delighted how nice they were! If you ever meet me don’t be shy! It’s creepier if you just stare hahaha Looking forward to my new start,taking responsibility for my future. These are exciting times, it’s never too late to start again. Don’t ever be afraid to do something new, to start from the bottom and build your way up again. Thank you to my followers who have been supportive even after I got married, moved to Australia and don’t work as a sexy model hahaha I love you guys! Have the courage to start!??

Nagpahiwatig din si Jinri na iiwan na niya ang kaniyang pagiging modelo para pagtuunan naman ng pansin ang kaniyang talento.

Sa ngayon, pinagsusumikapan ni Jinri na makaipon para sa kaniyang tuition at makakuha ng degree sa trabahong ginugusto niya.

“So for now, I need to earn my tuition fee to get a degree for that job I want in the future (tuition fees for international students are extremely expensive here!!!). I’ve already met some awesome Pinoy guests at the restaurant I work in and I was delighted how nice they were! If you ever meet me don’t be shy!

Payo ni Jinri sa kaniyang sarili: “Looking forward to my new start, taking responsibility for my future. These are exciting times, it’s never too late to start again. Don’t ever be afraid to do something new, to start from the bottom and build your way up again.”

Pinasalamatan ni Jinri ang kaniyang followers na supportive kahit pa ikinasal na siya, lumipat sa Australia at hindi na nagtatrabaho bilang isang “sexy model.”

Matatandaang kinansela ni Jinri ang nakatakda sana niyang kasal ngayong taon bilang pag-iingat na rin sa banta ng coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

 

 

Gayunman, inayos na nila ng kaniyang asawang si John ang mga legal na dokumento.

Bukod kay Jinri, nagtatrabaho rin bilang waitress ang Kapuso actress na si Rich Asuncion sa Australia. — Jamil Santos/RC, GMA News
