Body/Self Image
Liz:
There's always Skype, dear Patrick.
It's a race to serenade me!
Patrick:
That's right, bitches, she's already calling me 'dear.' Y'all have some catching up to do.
How come every time I threaten to shove music-related things up people's asses, it always serves as a pagebreaker?
Tom:
Last night I was at my school gymnasium for an hour. I had 10 minute meetings with all my teachers, just the teacher, my mum and I. all told my mum how fantastic and smart I am and how I have a lot of potential.
Naturally I should feel all happy and have a positive self-image but I don't because I feel that I'll never meet their expectations and spent the whole night feeling incredibly anxious.
Dissy:
I have a pretty bad Body Image. I've always seen myself as unattractive, bordering on ugly.
I come from a good hearty stock of footballers(American), which should have helped me to get girls right? Of Course thanks to a fuck-up by medical people, I lost my hearing, and ended up becoming a book worm. Over time, my hearing has come back (to about 70% of normal) but the years of having my nose buried in a book caused me to develop round shoulders, which have straightened out over the past few years.
I've never really liked my face, thinking my nose doesn't fit with the rest of it. And my hair, gawd I hate my hair. It started out as straight blonde hair, and has mutated over the yeares to a curly brown mess. And I hate the shitiest skin. My dad is really dark, the embdiment of "Black Irish", and I have no pigment in my skin (minor exageration). I practically go from white to red as soon as I step into the sun.
I use to be in good shape. Weight lifted three times a week, and would bike to school and work. of course a hectic school and work sechdeule the last year has casued me to stop doing that, and I've gained 20 lbs, which I desperately want to lose.
I have had some girls hit on me with comments like "I think tall, pale guys are sexy" and other stuff. I laughed, and hollered out for one of my buddies, never believing hat they meant me.
For Self Image, I have always liked me, although I do have my fair share of D'oh moments. I'm pretty social once I get to know somebody, but shy before that. Duno why. You'd think Debating would have fixed some of that.

curly brown mess? I challenge you to a hair-off, mister!
Actually guys, I've been in a pretty bad mood about my body lately, and kind of hoped this thread would help me feel a bit better. I didn't really, but for some reason I'm feeling good about myself today! Though I am kind of confused as to how people can not know what colours suit themselves. There have been occasions where I have found out that colours look good on me, but it is not as if I went for bright orange clothes thinking it would make me look good. However, I do know that if I am going to wear one colour that not everything will go with it, and should take that into consideration.
