Skater Hater

I just spent 30 minutes talking fashion with a boy. Over facebook. I think you know who it is.

I hate petite Asian chicks because they are everything I am not (except for the Asian part). It does not help that half of my friends are petite Asian chicks with tiny, slender everything. I'm just hulking around like a big, giant hulk.

Sometimes I look at my mum and think to myself, "Why do I look like this? My mother is a petite Asian chick. IT IS MY RIGHT TO BE A PETITE ASIAN CHICK AS WELL." Instead, I'm one of those genetic mutants with broad shoulders and calves.

Okay, so many I'm just trying to avoid the fact that I eat too much. I think I may have even been a petite Asian chick at some point in my life (some time between birth and year seven). It's just that sometimes I hate my body so freaking much. I know all girls hate their body at some point. In fact, probably all of you are unhappy with your body right now. It's probably just that in our internal thoughts, we think we are justified in thinking we are fat and/or ugly (for some of unfortunate ones, it is "and").

Whilst writing this, I am secretly hating all of you that think you are justified in thinking you are fat and/or ugly.

I haven't fit into a size medium in a while. I still wear medium for looser tops but all fitted tops are now a definite large. I tried on a medium fitted peplum today (yes, my one true love) and I was sincerely busting out of it. There was some bulging flesh and it was just altogether horrendous.

The reason I have so much peplum is because my mother one told me it was flattering on me. There's not a lot of things that are flattering on me because my proportions are just ridiculous (big shoulders, reasonable bust, no hips/waist) so I have sunk my claws into this trend and am currently buying out the peplum market.

Sometimes I get conflicting advice. Little Mishelle once told me I looked nice in a skater dress (I remember because it made me so happy. Thanks, Little Mishelle). I have since accumulated roughly three casual skater dresses and two formal/going-out skater dresses. After purchasing my most recent, mother said to me, "You know, you look nice in the peplum with a tight fitted bottom but the dresses that go in at your waist..."

I nearly died.

Please, no pity comments.
