"I don't think jutting collarbones do much for me."

now what's picture

I have to say I hate my physical appearance as much as I did in 7th grade. Honestly, I've had three 18+ year olds say "awww you're really cute"

and i think they must be deluded. i honestly have no idea what anyone sees in me. i know i still look kinda awkward because i guess i'm not done growing but it's driving me crazy. i'm trying working out and i fence, and i feel great when i'm fencing. i'm trying to bulk up but i don't know how much it's helping. I feel like i'm doomed to always be awkward looking, like a fucking giraffe. ugh.

do i sound superficial? because i really mean all this from the bottom of my heart.

i purposefully avoid all situations where i might have to be wearing a swimsuit or anything, it's messed up. i don't know if i have a problem but i just can't stand myself. i really can't.

i feel like crap. care to help me figure out what's wrong?

oh, on a lighter note:
i actually talked to some of the same art class kids from last week's installment, and one girl lives right smack in my neighborhood! she's nice from what i know of her. i'm working on my fashion drawing, and i'm doing really well! i bought an issue of Out, and an issue of Paper. Whatshisname from gossip girl who plays Chuck? He's gorgeous. Holy shit.

I believe that it is

I believe that it is perfectly normal to fall in and out of love with your body. And to find different things about it that you like.

As for being surprised that others find you cute, we're often the hardest and most judgemental of ourselves.
People see in us the good qualities we overlook everyday.
