people expect too much from other people.. especially for girls.
i think it was two days ago, it was Women's Day.
i think it was my first time hearing/reading about this 'day'.
and i support it fully. i think we need to appreciate women..
we have so many women role model in this world. but can you be one?
that's the question. being a future teacher in the future. i am blessed to be looked upon by not only 30-40 students but the whole school. i would say around 300++ students, teachers and staff.
that's on the side note.
when i say there are many role model of women in this world where we have Oprah Winfrey, Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah, Yuna, and many more. I can't help but think many women also look up to models, singers and actresses like Miranda Kerr, YooNa and Jennifer Lawrence. They have this perfect body figure which are to die for. How is possible for a women to look so lovely at all times. They have the perfect hair, perfect face, perfect smile, perfect flat tummy and a perfect skinny long legs.
I have to admit I'm starting to despise myself for not looking as they are. I want to be pretty like them and I want to be skinny like them. It's too much pressure for a girl to feel that way. But that is what media is feeding us, they are brainwashing us to see the meaning of perfection by a women. You must have a flat tummy, your teeth must be white and perfect and you must have a thigh gap.
I want to share my story to you guys. There is this one fine day where I feel good about myself. I felt happy and doing my house chores as usual. During tea, i offered to go out and buy banana fritters. So I went out and I met the lady who sells these banana fritters. I know this lady as she was my friend's mother. The first thing she commented was I look chubbier than before. How dare she. You don't know me well enough and I just met you in a long time. And the first thing you asked me is my weight???? I will not forget about this incident for the rest of my life. It really scarred me.
