My Opinion On My Body

I don't think I'm wildly different to every other teenage girl living on Earth. I have my doubts and insecurities. There are days when I just want to roll over and go back to sleep because, in my humble opinion, I look just that bad, and days where I feel like I have to wear a few layers of make up in order for someone else to find me pretty. There are body parts I wish would be smaller and others I wish didn't exist at all. Some days my hair has a mind of its own and other times my eyeliner is just not quite right. 

It's very easy for that to eat away at every little thing. It would be easy to just go back to bed and pretend I never woke up looking like this:

But I know there are things that aren't so bad. I know that my teeth are straight (one and a half years with two plates and then two years of braces was worth it in the end!), glasses don't make someone ugly and not being a stick figure isn't so bad. In the end, I don't mind the way I look that much. I'm not usually so ugly, even though sometimes I feel it.

Honestly, I don't see the point in counting calories or starving yourself. Starving is not healthy. Neither is shoving copious amounts of saturated fat down your throat, obviously, but if you exercise, you can fix that. As long as you're healthy, it ultimately doesn't matter whether you're a size 8 or size 12. No one is going to sneak up behind you and cut the labels off your clothes just to see what size you are. And if they do, that's creepy and you should say something to make them go away.

As I said before, nerd glasses are in, therefore needing glasses isn't really that bad. I was once told that I looked good without them, to which I replied honestly that I just like to be able to see. I mean, why would you actually condemn yourself to stumbling around with flailing arms and crashing into things when there's a quick fix. All it takes is to put on a pair of glasses. Or contacts, if you're that way inclined.

Anyhow, this is me, in all my nerdy glory...
