I'm not perfect.
I have freckles and faint red veins on my face.
I don't have that perfect hair. I once shaved my head,
it made people into thinking that I'm a cancer patient in remission.
I can't wear contacts because I have sensitive eyes,
so I wear glasses everyday and sometimes I'm sick and tired of wearing them.
I look like a dork not because it's a sick fashion statement,
but because I need them badly to see clearly.
I used to be thin but now I'm fat as a cow.
I wanted to become an artist—
painter, writer, photographer, musician
and my biggest regret was not going to art school.
I hate going to clubs. I hate socializing with people.
Maybe because I’m bad at dancing and I’m terrified of people I barely know.
Sometimes I curse, a lot—but not in front of my kids.
I could never be a girly-girl, I already tried.
I'll always be the girl with those dorky glasses.
I'm not perfect but I'm perfectly happy being imperfect
and I don't give a fucking shit.

ReplyDelete- I found this line VERY VERY ME. Really! We have the same frustration. And it sucks. Haha. :D
"Sometimes I curse, a lot—but not in front of my kids."
- Yeah. We love to curse but not outright. Heeee maybe it's one of the perks of having a very imaginative mind. Hahah. :D
P.S.
I still really envy your clean theme. :|

Hey Judy! Thanks for dropping by. I really appreciate it! ♥
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with anything white :)
BTW, I loved what you wrote about Stephen King-- my not so secret lover. :p
And you're currently reading Dreamcatcher! :) I have a hardbound copy of it, I bought it at Booksale yr '05. Definitely loved the story but I lost the book last year due to typhoon Ondoy. :( Make sure you have a big plastic container for the safekeeping of your collections. Always be prepared for those unpredictable typhoon scenarios. I lost almost half of my favorite books during typhoon Ondoy. Almost all my precious hardbound books. Pffft.
TC dear! I'm an avid fan of your blog :)
We shared the same sentiments on not going to Art school. Yeah! thanks to my ever supportive Dad, I've undergone excruciating pain and suffering in a prison called "Engineering Class". One of my biggest regrets. sigh.. as they say, better late than never. Photography, here i come!
