Hey mom? Can you bring my readers back?

  • Mood: Sadness
I want to be pretty.

Which may be a strange want because while I've never had a problem attracting people (yes, people, not just men/guys/little boys) I, like many I’m sure, don’t really think of myself as pretty. Attractive maybe, but not pretty. I’ve never really worn makeup, or done my hair in any special way, so I wonder if the difference is tangible or if its opinion based.

Also, I’m finding that the types of people I attract are… bad. Though it’s hard to judge how ‘bad’ or ‘good’ someone is unless you get to know them and all the guys who like me… I don’t really want to get to know. >_>

Speaking of the guys who like me, work is as complicated as ever. My immediate boss is an ass.

Good example:

“WHY DO I HAVE TO BABAYSIT YOU IDIOTS ALL THE TIME?! *phone rings* Oh, mom? Yes. Hey, what’s for dinner?”

Or:

“Hey mom? Did you clean my room?”

Or my favorite:

“Hey mom, can you change my court date for me…”

Woman, take away the tit already, would you? The guy’s 25, he should be taking care of himself so that maybe the people who work under him can actually respect him.

*sigh*

Been rereading Conquest, changing the typos I see and fixing little stuff~

It’s fun. As soon as I get all the way to chapter 32 I’ll write 33. I would suggest you doing the same cause, I’m lost and I’m writing the damn thing @_@.

Anyway, thank you SO MUCH for sticking this out with me, you guys. It really does mean the world to me.

not to sound cliche or anything but, beauty really does come from the inside.(ever notice how if a person is cruel and nasty you can tell right away even if they have make up on?) Putting on make up is only putting on a mask, it is a false face and it isn't really you.
Do you know the reason women wear make up? The reason men are attracted to it? Because make up mimics what naturally happens you a woman's face during sex. Eyeshadow makes your pupils look dilated, lip stick makes your lips look fuller and darker, and blush (of course) makes it look like your face is flushed. It isn't beauty it's an advertisement.

All you need to do to be truly beautiful is to love your self and others, to live everyday to the best of your ability. To change and grow and not let the little things hold you down.

As far as attracting "bad people" everyone attracts them at one time or another.

Of course this is all my opinion, it's up to you to decide how to live your life. Don't worry I'm sure you'll do fine. (I looked at the photos of you in your gallery and don't worry you're pretty on the inside and the outside)

You're awesome ^^

I like your explanation for make up: all this, I did not know.

I wasn't REALLY exspecting anyone to respond, so this kinda made my day~ thank you :hug:

Hey. :3

Not much to say for the topic on hand, other than
a.) Your writing's beautiful, and as far as I'm concerned, that means you are too. ^_^
and
b.) always great to hear from you. :)

I THINK YOU'RE PRETTY DDD: :heart:
You gaw-jus, doll. But if you want to do things to make you feel prettier, or to enhance your beauty, there is no problem with that. Appearance isn't everything, but here's an example using books:

If you walk into a book store or a library, the ones with crazy awesome covers that have pretty drawings/colors are gonna pull you in for a quick look, right? And if you like what you see in the summary bit, you'll take a look! But it's all up to the author (that's you!) how good the rest of the story is, and of course the reader to decide if it's for them. Although there are a lot of books that started without pretty covers but held beautiful stories, the extra pretty on the outside is the author's way (or illustrator if you have some help) of saying, "Hey! You might like this!".

In short; you're a really good author and a really good book. Your cover has a nice shade of blue, but it's okay to go for that fancy title font! *booknerdbooknerdomgbooknerd*

AND I'M SUPER UBER EXCITED FOR ANY NEW CHAPTERS OF CONQUEST

... not that my opinion matters.
:icon4eyedblonde:
man, i have the same problem. everyone (that's my relative) says i'm pretty, but i don't really think so... i mean, i know i'm attractive, it's just that i'm not what i wish i could be. but isn't everybody? i seem to attract weirdos, too. maybe i'm too nice to them. i need to be more snobby. lol.

i've actually known several people that were like that, one of my ex girl friends, thought of herself like that but thinks better of herself now. i hate to admit it, but i lost track of the story a long time ago, didn't seem to have time to read them :( still enjoy the journals though

He's 25... and still living with his mom... If he doesn't have some kind of serious mental problem, or she has a health problem, OR he's going to college right now then he needs to get out of the house. Then maybe he can get laid and pull the stick out of his ass. If you ever decide to quit or something then you could tell him that. I bet it would be fun.
