Why do I expose myself to rejection time and time again?<\/p>\n
I must be a glutton for punishment.<\/p>\n
I got called by my Minneapolis modeling agency to go to a fashion show casting for Aveda. \u00c2\u00a0The only reason why I went is because the show is on a weekend and I would be available to do it.<\/p>\n
I had to have been about twice the age, two inches shorter, and about 15 lbs heavier than 99% of the girls there.<\/p>\n
*SIGH*<\/p>\n
I don’t know why they send me to these things. \u00c2\u00a0Well, actually, I’m pretty sure it was by request because I might be the only “model-esque” Asian face out there in Minneapolis. \u00c2\u00a0But the irony of me being in the modeling business is that I am just tall enough but sometimes not tall enough. \u00c2\u00a0I’m definitely not skinny enough.<\/p>\n
What a sick world! \u00c2\u00a0Why am I even thinking about how I am not skinny enough?!? \u00c2\u00a0Why am I comparing myself to these girls who are not even “normal” or “average”?<\/p>\n
Sorry to say folks, but society has conditioned us to do this.<\/p>\n
