hello every1..
i want to add this topic because i think its so important...
do you look at you self postively or not? are you satisfied with you appearance or not?
now days we liv ein a material world were its all about your appearnce so much that it bacame an essencial thing...as if no one would accept you if only you are good looking rather than focusing on what the inside...
for me,,i was in the 5th grade 40Kg which is very normal for my age, but my friend were lower than 40Kg...and they looked at me as afat person which i was NOT!! so in my pre-teen i tried to lose weight as much as i could so they accept me...till the 12th grade i had this silly idea that the thinner i became, the better looking i become which is incredebly stupid...that my wight last year was 48Kg with 155cm tall...
but now im more comfortable with the way i lokk and u gained wight till i became 53Kg which excellent weight for my age and height...
but still one of my friend which is very small thin person keeps telling me that i should lose my wight and that i become fat...But i am conffident now with my weight and i always tell her to stop saying that and that my weight is perfect which iam proud of...
LONG STORY Ha!
just wanted to share with you my experience and hope to read some replies from every one...

everybody has his/her own criteria of beauty. some people consider the thinner the better. others have different opinion.

My gf in China is 1.70
Haha, so that's why she is very proud of herself! She often tells me that her friends say that she is the most beautiful one among them. Haha...

What I hate about myself... Hmm...

Let's say I'm so happy now because this is my 1000th posting, a round number.

What I hate about myself...

Sometimes I wish I don't wear glasses because it's very annoying, someone annoys you, you want to punch him, but before you punch him you first have to put your glasses away.
Sometimes I'm a little bit slow in doing works, because I love comfortableness.

haven't I said I love comfortableness? How should I feel comfortable with contact lenses? I'm afraid of it. Laughing

On the other hand, I'm very slit eyed. I don't think it's gonna fit.

And another disadvantage: RedRose says I'm too "gullible". (Look this word up in a dictionary.)
