I'm not perfect but I'm trying to accept my imperfections and be beautiful.

So I tried to join a contest, so that I could have a reason to own a photograph of myself.
Unfortunately I couldn't post it here 'cause it wasn't scanned. The picture was beautiful and I made that "model" pose and with that pouty lip.

But before that let me tell you what happened before the photoshoot.

I pass by a tarp that bears the mechanics of a contest. I want to join, for the heck of it, I may not be that beautiful just like the others but I just want to lift up my confidence. win or lose at least I have a cute photograph of myself.

With the help of my friends, I had myself put on makeup and ask whether I should wear purple or white and also I got the requirements ready.


The photoshoot was fun, me and my friend (who also joined) tease each other a lot. but when we see the photos she had a hard time picking her own.. I, on the other hand took only a minute or two because they were laughing at me.. who could have thought that I made that pose? that's so not me.


so I got the picture which I passed for the contest (I felt bad 'cause my teeth showed.. must smile with my lips closed) and my favorite: the one with a sexy pouty lip.

When I got my pictures I felt different...somehow edited pictures make you feel better, that you could be beautiful on that picture. So I get to keep my favorite one and passed my entry.



In the end I didn't won but, hey at least I've got to keep my beautiful picture. I should take pictures of my beautiful self and keep them.. it made me smile somehow.
