reasons why I don't straighten my hair for school and females live in a dog-eat-dog world.

Well guys, (hahahaaa, what people, Izzletay? Not even you stalk this blog anymore..)
I'm over my emo "i can't dance" episode, after a piece of advice given to me by a certain someone. ;)

So yeah, regardless of my crappy grade 8 result that I'm not happy with,
I am going to do my intermediate ballet exam in 2 years, and I will work very hard coz I won't have VCE distracting me. :)

I have so many things to do for homework that I can't be bothered doing anything. :(
I think I might go to sleep soon and wake up early tomorrow and do some. :)

Oh and "La Vita e` Bella"... in the midst of my mountains of homework, I found (or made) time to finish watching the brilliant italian masterpiece.... It was excellent, I really enjoyed it. :D

Hmm.... beauty is in self confidence.
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, PEOPLE.
FOR GOODNESS SAKE!
Somedays I'm in the city and of course, being the city, I walk past like a gazillion cakefaces and wonder, "Maybe I should be wearing more makeup to fit in. Maybe I should straighten my hair. Maybe I should try harder to look good".

And then I realise,
all that superficial crap;
the people who care about it and judge you on that aren't worth knowing. :)

Well, when it comes to boys,
Let's face it - they want pretty girls, just like "we" (in the generalised sense of the word) want hot guys.

And at the end of the day, the guys who go for "hot"* girls;
*I say "hot" because frankly, there isn't much hot about having orange skin, white lips and outlined eyes o.O well... in my opinion! And this whole skeletal figure to be honest....
anyway hot guys aren't worth it.

Let's use a practical example, yeah?
This guy I know, back when I straightened my hair all the time (I mean on weekends, of course, everyone knows I don't straighten my hair for school unless I'm having a particularly insecure day / was trying to procrastinate the night before), used to notice me a lot and well, I didn't really care coz I don't see him in that sense.
Then I stopped straightening my hair.
And with my wildebeast mane came a decline of his interest in me.
Then I see him making out with some other skinny girl with straight long black hair in the city hahahha!

Then this week, I straighten my hair.
Lo and behold, he says hi.

Which goes to show that I am so glad I didn't waste my time with him / trying to impress him.

On the other hand, someone else looked at me the same way regardless of my no-appearance-in-effort days. XD
And that person was my mum :D
I joke ;)

So yeah, that's my spiel! :)

And also, I really like the fact that I put no effort into my appearance at school.
When I meet people outside of school/temple, they don't recognise me/ are surprised.
And sometimes I get that rapid two-facedness...
like, at school I'm not good enough for you to smile at but now that my hair's hanging limp and there are Vans on my feet, you notice me?
So yeah, my zero-school-beauty policy really works for me.
Coz it allows me to distinguish between the people I value as friends and repel the people who want to cling/compete.

Ahhhh females,
don't we have that massive like... competition?
All girls act like they are in competition with each other.
You walk into a room and everyone wants to be the prettiest.

Guys, on the other hand,
they've worked out that sticking up for each and having their whole "brotherhood" or whatever crap going on really does result in better rewards.

So in that sense we're stupid,
but it's only a result of the conditioning women have had throughout society... the ideal that is only starting to change now.

Anyway now I'm procrastinating my chemistry homework so I better get off this and go finish it! XD
