Why do I expose myself to rejection time and time again?

I must be a glutton for punishment.

I got called by my Minneapolis modeling agency to go to a fashion show casting for Aveda.  The only reason why I went is because the show is on a weekend and I would be available to do it.

I had to have been about twice the age, two inches shorter, and about 15 lbs heavier than 99% of the girls there.

*SIGH*

I don’t know why they send me to these things.  Well, actually, I’m pretty sure it was by request because I might be the only “model-esque” Asian face out there in Minneapolis.  But the irony of me being in the modeling business is that I am just tall enough but sometimes not tall enough.  I’m definitely not skinny enough.

What a sick world!  Why am I even thinking about how I am not skinny enough?!?  Why am I comparing myself to these girls who are not even “normal” or “average”?

Sorry to say folks, but society has conditioned us to do this.

Can’t we just love ourselves as the way we are?
