My Unexpected TikTok Revelations: A 40-Something’s Take on Gen Z

From my Point of View Disclaimer: This post is just my personal reflection as a 40-something creator navigating TikTok for the first time! It’s written with lighthearted curiosity and humor, not judgment. Every generation has its own unique way of communicating, expressing identity, and navigating the world. And the following are just a few observations that made me stop and think. Resistance, Realities and the Algorithm I’ll admit it: I was a late adopter. I didn't join TikTok until my mid-40s. For the longest time, I resisted opening an account simply because of its origins and all the hypes around it. But eventually, the creator side of me took over. I wanted more exposure for my YouTube Channel content, so I figured, why not cross-post to TikTok and see how it goes? What started out as a purely practical distribution tactic turned into a fascinating social experiment. Day by day, I found myself scrolling through the endless stream of short-form videos and began uncovering some...

Invisalign Journey

Finally I have made up my mind to do some thing to my teeth. Instead of those metallic braces my friends have all done, I opt for Invisalign which is invisible type and at least I don't need to look further weird with my smile next year when I'm set for wedding shoots. That's my concern, although is sort of inconvenience. You can't have beautiful smile with that metallic braces on your teeth right? Ya maybe shoot from far can't really see clearly but how about close up? You can't asking the photographer to take distance shots or photoshop it for the sake right? It is all about nice pretty photos!!!! I want INVISALIGN and that is final!

Umm.. I wonder how the dentist feels when he/she sees my horrendous teeth. Yucky! Front teeth 2 of them overlapping on 1 and yellowish. Wahahahahah... I feel disgusted myself too. Sorry for the description made. 

My purpose of doing it is I find that my teeth are pertruding (you can see sideway of me) and I think is ugly. I want something that can help pushes it inwards to look nicer. Okay okay!!! I just find that I don't have a beautiful smile. All the photos that captures me have those farking weird smile from me and is damn ugly. This has been haunting me for years and I hate it. Even though now I am having some financial commitments towards my new house, but I'm still thinking about this till now. I just can't get over with it.

That's why I decided to give it a try. Going for the complimentary consultation next Friday at Orchard Scotts Dental (OSD). I'm taking that x-ray at a cost of $100 which I don't care because I'm quite determined this time. I hope it won't hurt my pocket too much.

Initially I email to Dental on the Bay to find out more on the pricing and etc. After that I email again to OSD which seems much cheaper. So I decided on OSD. And that is where some famous SG bloggers went for their sponsored Invisalign. I am keeping my fingers crossed as to not having sub-standard service for norm patients versus sponsored bloggers. Guess until next Friday, I will decide if the Invisalign journey of mine will start or not. Right now is just blabbering from me.

So if I decided to start my Invisalign journey, I shall update again from the start till I'm done. The progress in improving my smile.
