Time to change the way I look.

I say the spell, watching myself in the mirror. My long, dark curly hair goes a light brown with gold twisting through the short waves. I stare in amazement as my large round eyes turn almond shaped. The colour slowly changes from light green to an interesting dark blue colour.

My pale skin grows darker until it is light tan. The shape of my face gets rounder, as my long nose turns into a button shaped one.

My large pale lips become darker and thinner, the Cupid's bow less defined. I shrink until I'm roughly three inches smaller, only 5"3.

I purchase a long, shapeless, lilac dress and a woollen shawl. I put them on, and look in the mirror once again.

I look sweet and kind, less damaged. But if you look closely, you can still see the pain in my eyes.
