So I haven't blogged in a VERY long time. As always, I won't apologize. I actually finally decided to blog after getting inspired by a certain blogger. (I won't mention their name mainly because they're not advertising/sponsoring me, so I owe them nothing.)
First and foremost I've been pretty sick these days. Yes, physically sick. I never get sick.
Okay, scratch that, I get sick RARELY. Really I just have bad cramps.
Also, school is keeping me kinda busy. (not.) I actually chose not to join any extra curricular clubs, sports, etc. Because I'm too lazy to stay committed to any clubs and sports, and also because I just plain old don't like people. So I pretend like I don't have time for anyone, when I really just sit at home watching YouTube videos and stalking Instagram. <.<
Anyways, I've actually thought about totally revamping the blog because if you haven't noticed already, it's quite dull. I mean, the colors (black) are freaking horrid, not to mention my ridiculously long URL.
I'm not really devoted to this blog though, but I'm trying as best as I can to keep up with it. I just keep forgetting I actually have like ten different blogs. Srsly.
You know what I want? I'd really, really, hopefullymaybepossibly like to have an artist (someone from like, Deviant Art?) come and make me a banner or help me design the blog so it can actually look nice and presentable. I mean, it wouldn't hurt. See, I'm not a mega-blogger or anything which is probably why that won't happen. I don't have money to pay any artist to do that for me. All me artistic friends don't do digital art either. Sigh...
There once was a time where I actually was artistic in life.
But I have now figured art isn't my thing. I had friends and family literally tell me I should become an artist. They obviously knew nothing about how little an artist gets paid. Hello, ever heard of the term ''starving artist''? This is why I refuse to become an artist. That still doesn't excuse why I dropped it as a hobby. I just kind of sucked. I was improving at one point, but I kind of lost my mojo after a while. -Insert old picture of crappy art-

Ugh. I was like 12, okay?! |

Yes, it's total crap. But that's not the point. The point is, is that I was a creative child was an IMAGINATIVE SOUL. Now, that has all gone out the window and I no longer have such a mind. Which means I can't just draw my own banner.
Yep, this is a cry for attention. A cry for an artist.
Don't worry, I've actually improved a great deal from that drawing. But I don't really have the time or energy to go take pictures of my newest attractions. (new as in 2 years ago)
Anywho, since I haven't been blogging lately, you're probably wondering what I've been doing to fill the void. Remember when I made that post about Xiaxue? No? Please revert back to the post.
I hadn't read her stuff in a long time. So while I was on Instagram I actually stumbled across a picture of her cute baby boy, Dashiel. I didn't know that was HER son until I saw that she posted it, and I was all like, ''OH!" like I had completely forgot about her existence.
I am in no way shape or form trying to advertise her blog or anything. But I thought I would mention a certain opinion that she had, which I stumbled on while reading one of her entries.
So if anyone knows anything about Xiaxue, you know that she's had a few plastic surgeries and also hasn't been ashamed to admit she's Photoshopped quite a few of her pictures. I wouldn't say she's vain, but she does care about her looks greatly. Right? Okay.

Photoshopped picture of Xiaxue. |
She gets a lot of hate for her plastic surgery and photoshopping, which I don't condone or agree with because everyone to some degree is vain.
First and foremost, I don't think it's my business or anyone else's as far as the surgeries go. Do as you please. It's your body, it's your life. Photoshop away, that's not really my concern either.
|
YES, this is the same person!! |
As far as 'plastic people' (my nickname for them) I don't have a problem with them. The only time I'll have an issue is if they're extremely VAIN.
Like, if they target other people's looks and start bashing them on their fugliness. If their argument always resorts to the way the person looks, that's when I get rubbed the wrong way.
If you were once unattractive, and you got the surgeries to fix it (let's say you look pretty decent now) do you think it's okay for you to bash people's ugliness because you are no longer on their level of attractiveness/ and or ugliness?

Take a look at this 'attractiveness scale' and see where you fall. |
People should know better. If you were ugly and are now artificially attractive
(which isn't a problem in my book) you should know what it feels to be that person, and if you were below average as far as looks, you at least got teased about it a few times. You should know how much that...crushes and stings the recipient of your cold-hearted jokes.
"You can be plastic on the outside, and I wouldn't care. But don't become a barbie on the inside. Dark and hollow." ~Moi
Anyways, I'm off to bed. I hope I made up for my long ass hiatus. Night!
