Typical girl?

[jenburgess]

There are times where I look in the mirror and think "Wow, I look fucking good!". I often feel that way after a shower, washing my hair, a little mascara. However, the down side is looking in the mirror and wondering how anyone looks at me on the street without laughing.
Hormones or typical girl shit?

Mr. Shade,

Firstly, thank you very much for the compliment. It's always nice to hear that someone thinks something so nice of you.

Secondly, I think I really just photograph well.

hmmm, very interesting. Fair enough, I jump to conclusions.

[darkadaptedeye]

haha. typical everyone shit.

i think anyone who cares about themselves or their appearance goes through the same thing.

[jenburgess]

You are definitely right on that one CI. I think if I washed my hair more often, I might feel better. I am trying to get more girly these days, but the tomboy in me just fights it every step of the way. I still want to be that girl in the school yard who runs faster than the boys and can still beat them up. I also want to show of my scraped knees too! Ha, the memories.

i think that it's typical anybody shit.
i know it's typical me shit.
i hit each extreme today.

[jenburgess]

Extreme is the perfect word to describe it. How can I go from one day from thinking I am the shit to thinking I am the ugliest thing ever. Why not just feeling not so hot, but I have to feel like total and utter shit. Weird extremes for me.

I think that about myself every day of my life. I mean, there are a few that have said I look 'attractive', according to what their definition of that may be.

But, speaking for myself, attractiveness is very much an inside thing. And, the life I have led so far leads me to think I am a very ugly man. From the outside I might be Jet Li, but from the inside, I feel like Eric Stoltz in Mask, who has the loveliest of intentions and one hell of an imagination. But, because of the life I have led, I almost have to refuse believing I could ever be a James Dean. (Maybe James Dean BradfieldThat's just what I observe, and from what I have encountered, most people believe the same. Long ago I was friends with this girl they called Ruby. And, she was hands down the most physically attractive girl in San Diego. No romantic chemistry whatsoever, she was just a great friend. In my mind, she was beautiful for the person she was, but more or less she was so attractive she was interpreted as a playgirl. Well, often, she would denounce her

Yet again, a wonderful insightful post as usual by Mani. I fully agree with you about the beauty inside. THere are people I find so attractive, but once I get to know them, I cannot fathom what I saw in them physically. On the other hand, I find alot of people who aren't considered "gorgeous" by standards to be the most beautiful in the world. My grandma being the prettiest of them all!

If you really wanna know how you measure up, then enter in this, hehehehe.
