It's time to start feeling body confident.

Women, There Is No Such Thing As Perfection
Psychologies.co.uk

We like to ignore certain things and pretend that they don't exist. We ignore things like the booger hanging out of your friends nose. Sometimes we ignore the way people eat. One thing that people continuously try to ignore is their own bodies.

I've been having talks with my friends about how we look. I like to have these talks because I like to see how my friends view themselves and each other. From the time we are children in elementary school and for the rest of our lives, there will be somebody at every corner trying to tell you how to look. Some girls will say they need to be on a diet or over exercise because they are fat. Some will over eat, under eat, and even not eat anything at all to achieve the "perfect body." The most absurd thing I have ever heard in this world is having the perfect body. This is crazy and upsetting because their is no such thing, but in the back of our heads we think that there is. The girls who ignore how their bodies are, are no different from the girls who are obsessed with looking like something they are not. Reasons being is because even though you pretend to not care, deep down and from a far, at least once in your life you will idolize the way someone else looks. When in reality you should idolize the way you look because you are just as beautiful.

Females were meant to come in all shapes and sizes. Just like our hair color, our shoe sizes, and the way we talk will never be the same as one another. We were all bullied by the way we looked at some point. When I lived in Detroit they made fun of how skinny I was. Yet, that same girl that was saying I was too skinny was being told she was too fat. People tell you your butt is too little, too big and that you need boobs. Some females will enhance themselves and change their body features to be this "perfect" person. In the end, that will never be achieved because that female will always believe something needs to be changed.

Ladies please listen to me! Girls cry over what they want to be. Women embrace all that they are.

Be confident in your size and remember we are not Kim Kardashian's or Kylie Jenner's. We are who we are, perfect in every size.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
