i hate to admit but i DO look better with makeup right? photoshop allows me to make myself look tanner, my teeth and nose smaller, eyebrows darker and enhance my eyeliner.
there goes any natural beauty i ever had..
oh and this was how i looked when i was much younger.
horrid i know.
Have spent the last 2 days visting relatives for CNY. Collected a fair amount of angpows. =D can almost feel my pocket swelling. Everyone my relatives says i've grown to look so different they almost couldn't recognise me. o_O its just the makeup ain't it.
The strangest response I got was from one of my uncles; he says he prefers the old me. o_O and he asked how do i feel about my new look. I DO BELIEVE that looks is important and when you look good, you feel good. And a high self esteem is crucial crucial.
Sometimes I feel really thankful for the way my parents have brought me up. I have morals and principles; i don't smoke, steal nor am I a gangster. And its all thanks to the preachings driven into our minds since we were little.
I'm not allowed to hang out too late nor sleepover at others' place. Yes at times i grumble but at the end of the day I respect the rules my parents set. I never understood those 'rules' but now I do. its entirely for the sake of ourselves.
After visiting my grandma's (my one and only grandparent) place today, it stuck me on how my parents would leave me one day too. and how much my parents mean so much to me. I begin to appreciate the naggings and preachings now because I realise that in future they wouldn't be around to be concerned about us anymore. And how I wish for that day not to come. There are so much that my parents have been through just to provide for us! There's too, so many things I won't be able to see eye-to-eye on with them unless I'm a parent myself. I love my mum and dad for who they are and I'll never for once, wish I had different folks.
