just recently i've started to transition from being a tom girl who didn't care about anything "girl" related (e.g. makeup, hair products, etc.) to actually improving myself and embracing who i am. i've been putting together a workout routine and starting to eat better, drinking teas that help boost my immune system and looking into makeup that works well with my skin, and everything's been going smoothly. but knowing me i have an incredibly low self esteem and this morning my mum just made me feel so much worse than i already do.

this morning i woke up late and decided to put on a light amount of makeup, mascara and for the heck of it i filled in my eyebrows. i haven't done it before but i had the equipment at hand and decided to try it, and it looked really good. it made me feel better about myself, and when i left the bathroom my mum looked at me in disgust and said "wow cora, i never expected you to be like that." and i just started at her wide eyed, and she finished off with "old ladies fill in their eyebrows, it looks stupid." i was holding back tears after that, she never has anything nice to say about my makeup even when it looks insanely good, and it just makes me feel so down. it's suddenly like she's the judge of everything i do and put on, and it's like i'm only there to impress her and not the others around me, including myself. i'm debating whether or not to scrub it off, and i just want to cry because i apparently never look or am good enough for anyone.

just had to get this off my chest, sorry

okay first, pm me with advice ?? i am just like you
kinda
actually no
i'm still in the first stage of
"yeah i mean i love dresses but i'm too self conscious so lets stick to baggy
band shirts with black skinny jeans and omg makeup ain't no body got time for that.
i mean green tea is good but now i hate it and junk food is too yummy."
HELP. ME.
hah.
okay, as for your mum, ignore her!
if you like it, that is what matters.
if you like your makeup today, you flaunt it with that gr8 confidence of yours.
self-esteem is something not many girls have, so if you are beginning
to get more of it, then make sure to show it!
don't scrub it off!
i'm sure it looks amazing and don't cry because your
mascara is too expensive for that stuff c;.
you look beautiful all the time, you are beautiful for
anyone and everyone.
i hope you're doing oaky <3

My life is crumbling down around me.
I don't have the money to take online classes, so
getting a better job is out of reach.

I live paycheck to paycheck. And my FIL is a self
entitled jerk on the road and totaled my car this
morning after rear-ending a car that was stopped.

I don't know what I am going to do at all.

you'll be okay, don't worry.
take it one thing at a time.
your life isn't crumbling around you <3
you'll find stability soon.
maybe send out CV's to jobs that interest you,
and if one accepts you drop the one you're working atn ow.
i hope everything works out soon<333

I am a rare case of ''did not grow beautiful after puberty'' .
I just feel so ugly. And I really am ugly by society's standards.
People always tell me that ''it's the heart that matters'',
and still people call me ugly and I just feel like...
well, it doesn't really matter, does it.
I just need a little hug, a little appreciation, right?

[emoji movie]

Ugh. Life is so stressful.

are you ready for this?

pisa - x // probably one of the buildings that didn't go to plan and many find it ugly, but many find it beautiful.
books - x // for a person who hates untidyness, i find this a beautiful room, even with things everywhere
art - x // a lot of art people can't even consider it 'art' because they don't believe it is pretty, but all art is beautiful.

listen, the point is the world is an imperfect place with loads of beauty
just because you find a couple flaws in yourself doesn't mean others
won't find it beautiful.
you're absolutely gorgeous, please don't bring yourself down.
just smile, keep your head up.
smiling is the most beautiful thing a person can wear.
<3

Ugh. Life is so stressful.

ugh ikr
just take it one step at a time!
good luck <3

I'm super tired right now, so apologies if there are any spelling errors or if something I wrote doesn't make any sense.
I'm literally too tired to bother with checking everything over before I post this ;-;

I'm super frustrated right now and could really use a hug, or two. Its a bit difficult for me to describe exactly why i'm so frustrated, but i'll try my best. Basically there are days when I feel more girly, days when I feel more boyish, days when I feel like a mixture of the two, and days when I don't feel like anything at all. Today is one of those days when I feel more boyish, and no matter what I try on, I can't make myself look the way that I want and its both frustrating and upsetting me. My parents have no idea that I'm like this, and so they can't understand why i'm "making such a big deal over what to wear" =/

i understand how you are feeling, it's very frustrating to feel like a boy, when you look like a female
i would recommend wearing any clothing you have that is baggy and putting your hair up if it's long
it helps putting it in a hat. i do hope you can get some boyish clothing soon, it'll help way more.
try focusing on you more maleish features if you look in a mirror
i hope this helps you at least a little.
//smothers you in hugs

I have to hand in an important document tomorrow.. in fact it might result in me getting some money from the uni every month (and I really do need any money I can get), but.. I have to bring it to a building I've never been to and I'm kinda scared about it? Really scared, actually. ;v; It's so important and I'm really scared of messing up..
