A Personal Experience With Some Academic Insides

Tattoos are not just an expression of how you feel inside but also a beautiful feature, like a painting that decorates bare walls in your apartment.

But if you don’t feel beautiful from the inside about your outside, life can be challenging.

I think I was a cute kid, I received attention, and I felt loved. But then I reached the age of elementary, and somehow the beauty Gods were against me.

As a kid, I wasn’t much aware of how I look or how others perceive me. I was only aware of it once I was enrolled in school. It wasn’t just the teasing from other kids, but also the comparing my mom did to me with other kids, not in a good way. But more so wishing I’d look like them.
