Hongshick's 2nd Journal

I really envy Yoanna. Because she has a beautiful face, also she changed her body shape so she has become popular in the supermodel world. I know that it is hard to lose weight. Many people failed to lose weight. But Yonnna succeeded, and she deserved to be a supermodel.
In fact when I was in high school, I had many complaints about myself. Why am I short? Why do I have small eyes and bad skin? When my friends told me that you look like a geek or ugly, I really wanted to change my face. I just wanted to have a normal face. However, soon I realized that there are many ugly faces in the world. And we called it “Individuality.” Many people have their own characteristics. Some people are satisfied their weird characteristics. But some people hate their ugly characters, so they change their characteristics to good looking by surgery.
I am relieved, that there are many people just like me. But still I think that appearance is important in this society. For example, I applied to many clothes stores for a job, which are located in Ala Moana Shopping Center. These stores have many employees who are pretty, handsome and tall. I was nervous. But at that time, I really needed a job, so I tried to get a job there. The Interview was fine. I answered fluently, and I always smiled at the interviewers. And they never gave me a call again. May be that’s because they didn’t like my answer, or my attitude or my smile. But I still strongly believed that they didn’t like my appearance. I understand. The store’s staff are all white people with blond hair and a good body shape. And I have none of those. Anyway, I got a job at Structure , a few weeks later. That company didn’t require an interview.
But now, it’s O.K. I like my self. And I also think that personality and ability are more important than appearance. And I have one thing to say, handsome and pretty people can exist, because of people like me who has ugly face and short.
