My body is MY BODY!

In a society were looks are basically everything, I don't have them. I hear the words you're hot, cute, sexy, or whatever, but in my eyes I think I'm good looking, but not hot or sexy.


Skin and Color:
Well I am basically pale compared to my family. I tan sometimes and i usually burn or get a little color and I mean a little color. My family is part indian, my mom is dark, but my dad is white, so i got stuck in the middle with more white complex. Also my skin imperfections, acne, blackheads, dry skin. It all adds up in the end. I tend to do a good job in taking care of my skin, but sometimes it gets a head of me. Some mornings I wake up and look at my face and want to crawl back to bed until it looks better to me, others I get really excited because my face starts to clear up. 


Size:
I think I'm actually a good average height. Im about 5 foot 10.5 inches and slender. I won't say skinny because Im not, nor am i over weight. I don't have the washboard abs or huge muscles that society wants every guy to have. One thing I do like about my size is my legs because they have some good muscles on them and I like to thank dancing for that. 


Looks:
I have always been changing looks since I was a baby. When i was a newborn i was chubby and I mean FAT!!! I started to lose all the baby fat as I grew up and became active in soccer and tumbling, but when i stopped doing both those activities my body went to shit and i started to gain weight. I only noticed this one summer when i was looking through picture my mom took of me out swimming in our lake and I saw all this flab. I started to exercise a lot more to keep the weight. I also loved to change my hair color and I still do. I have had several hair colors from Black to orange to blonde, or from yellow to red. Ive done a lot to my hair. No one ever understood why, or liked it but I see hair as hair and it deserves to change. I am always changing my looks everyday because I get bored easily.






At the end of the day i can tell you all about my body, but my body is me and its who I am. If you don't like it then move on. I respect who I am and who other people are. Fuck Capitalism and Society!

    so i basically love how you can really see your personality in your writing. You always create such a vivid picture with the words that you choose. Whenever I read your stuff it makes me laugh because of how brutally honest you are. I like how you own yourself and are confident in being who you are and not how society wants you to be. its pretty freaking awesome.

  2. Nice feedback, Clara!

    Keeton,
    Nice commentary regarding your appearance. I'm interested in your compulsive hair-dying. I think that often times we translate our moods into our appearance--perhaps the colors of your hair comments heavily on your internal state?
    PS-- took your advice. I have pink hair now--not dyed pink...but I bought a wig.
