I got my nails done today for the first time. I'm not sure if I like it. I had a miny spaz-attack in my head while I was sitting in the (super comfortable) chair. I started thinking about all the other things I want done or have changed about my appearance. I get my hair highlighted, I use a tanning moisturiser, I want to have my teeth whitened (I delusionally think if I have this done I will look like Megan Fox) and now I have these FAKE nails... how much faker could I get?
Answer= so much worse.
I do not fancy the fake look on girls or guys so I am perpetually worried about turning into someone I'm not- or looking the same as everyone else. I find it extremely unattractive and boring when people look like carbon copies of their friends. The other week when I was out with some girlfriends I decided I wanted to dye my hair brown because for some reason I concluded that girls with brown hair are treated with more respect, get stereotyped less and that there are too many fake blondes in the world.
I didn't dye my hair. Coincidentally, about five different people have told me how 'quirky' I am. I believe one person used the term 'left field'. Another went to great lengths to describe how they felt, giving me this example;
When a question is asked, there are usually three or four answers that you would expect someone to say. You answer with the eighth.
These comments shocked me at first because I think I'm quite normal, then I got a little worried but now every time I think about it, a big smile appears on my face. I don't think I could ever turn into someone else and lose myself completely, just evolve and grow up... which I'm looking forward to.
Love and quirks x
I agree; no matter what I don't think I would lose the majority of myself either, it's to much of myself....if that makes any sense. Growing up, boo!
