a lover's complaint
 female. seventeen. just trying to deal with everything, everyone and myself.

the URL is from the Fray's lyrics 'if i don't say this now, i will surely break', which sums up the content of this blog.

"We must accept finite disappointment, but we must never lose infinite hope" - Martin Luther King Jnr

i would just like to say

that i am sick to death of giving girls crap for wearing fake tan, fake nails, having “fake hair”, being “fake”.

i used to wear all black, band shirts, ripped clothing, teased hair, copious amounts of eyeliner, studded belts, had purple, black, red and blue hair, etc. now i fake tan, wear a lot of foundation, i do my nails and i have lighter hair, i wear denim mini shorts and bintang singlets.

and i am like that now because i fit in better this way. it makes me feel better about myself and helps hide/helps me get over my insecurities by looking like everybody else, by looking ‘normal’.

so the next time you criticise somebody for being “fake”, remember that everybody has their own ways of fitting in and feeling better about themselves and that everybody has insecurities. how you dress and how much makeup you wear is not indicative of your problems.
