Angst.

'That's the thing about people, they only focus on the things you do badly at.'

I've always been the joke in the group, the one whom people poke fun of. I've always been the unpretty one amongst my friends, the one that's too short, too fat, too loud and what not. I've grew up having people not really taken me seriously at all and I've always felt inferior to them. It's like the people around me constantly think that I am not good enough and I will forever not be better than them.

I guess with all that said and felt, I am lucky to not have fallen into a hell hole of depression and become a weak, lack of confidence introvert person. Thank goodness that within myself, somehow somewhere I had the unconscious strength to keep going and not break apart.

25 years and today I've decided that I will not tolerate being nothing. I've been growing up towards being someone with a goal and a dream. I will not let anyone tell me that I am not good enough. Yes, I may not be the world's smartest person and ace all my exams or not fail in anything but to me, the process, the path I've gone through has taught me a lot and shaped me to be who I am today. I have a story to tell, do you? Or is yours just another photocopy perfect book like everyone else? 

I think that I am my own best judge. I don't exactly go around telling the entire universe what my aspirations are and what is it that I want to do with my life. But that doesn't mean that I don't have anything worth while in my life going on.
