For some reason, we want to be perfect but we aren't. You know it. I know it. Nobodies ever going to be perfect. Behind our make-up, we're all just us, simple human beings. We get judged by instantly everything we do and that's why we have to put on make-up so we're not judged. Do we really need it though? The answer is no. I used to wear a lot of make-up such as foundation, concealer, eye liner, and mascara in high school. I had zero confidence and now that I'm a little bit older, I don't care as much. I can wake up every morning and wear my hair in a ponytail without having to worry about the thoughts of others. I can go to the store in sweats with no make-up and I just don't care anymore. My transformation from high school to now... I've changed a lot. We don't need to please everyone. If someone does not like who you are, you don't need that person in your life. Get rid of the negativity and only keep the positive friends that will support you until the end. I wanted to write this story as I think it's important. It's another issue in our society and I think it's sad because we don't need to constantly impress people but people still have it in their minds that they NEED to impress others. It's not necessary. You may see that I'm wearing make-up in my profile picture. There's times when we can have fun and dress up and that's okay, but don't do it to impress people. The best advice I can give is to just be yourself and smile! :)

"You did Maths Ada, and you're smart. Langa and you are so fucking negative. Two negatives make a positive, so like I said, you two deserve each other" ●°○°●°○°●°○°●°○°●°○°●°○°●°○°●° I always lived my life the way people wanted me to live it. After watching "The Princess Diaries" I realized that my life was controlled, I've been told how to live it. One day I decided to break the rules, I also wanted to feel the adrenaline they described in books. I was sick of living in someone else's story through books, it was now the time to create my own. ...who knew that all it took to finding yourself was a cute waiter at "Vue Sur l'océan"
