Being Beautiful :)x

I have to do a task for English class and we can choose any topic for research. We have to then think out 20 Q's and hand out a questionnaire to 10 diversely-aged people and write an essay on our findings.

My topic is: "Do you think that the fashion industry has a negative influence on young people?"

I was doing research on the Internet for what kind of questions to ask, and I got so frustrated, because so many people  are unhappy with their self-image. I admit that I'm not always so happy with my body, but that's only on what I call "Fat Day's" and those are days when I've eaten too much or are bloated.
I was on this one site where they have a list of things that plus size models need: 

Requirements for Plus size models

• Plus size models can be between the sizes of 12 - 18 some can be size 10 depending on agency needs.
• Models must have good body lines, excellent legs are also important, good classic, contemporary look there is no room for too funky looks.
• Models must carry themselves well and know how to work their body for camera angles.
• Plus size models must be comfortable in their own skin, so that it shows on film.
• Girls are between the height of 5'9 - 5-11, they must have the height to carry the clothes.
• The ideal plus size girl is 5'10 and a size 14.
• Hair length should be just to shoulder or longer with lots of body for fullness.
• Plus size models must pay particular attention to skin, hair, nails, smooth legs and many of the plus girls do lingerie - so perfect measurements help.

 That was on the website. I hate how to be a model you need to have all these things! I mean don't they want you to just look beautiful? That said, beautiful should be something that you think of yourself, not what other people say beautiful is.


Christina Aguilera -- Beautiful
Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, i saw debris
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the pain, I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends, you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness
The piece is gone left the puzzle undone
That's the way it is

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down
Don't you bring me down today...

No matter what we do
(no matter what we do)
No matter what they say
(no matter what they say)
When the sun is shining through
Then the clouds won't stay


And everywhere we go
(everywhere we go)
The sun won't always shine
(sun won't always shine)
But tomorrow will find a way
All the other times

'cause we are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down, oh no
We are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring us down
Don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today
Don't you bring me down today

I simply cannot get this song out of my head: :)

Nicole Scherzinger -- Don't Hold Your Breath

You can’t touch me now there’s no feeling left
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath
What you did to me boy I can’t forget
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath

I was under your spell for such a long time couldn't break the chains
You played with my heart tore me apart withall your lies and games
It took all the strength I had but I crawled up on my feet again
Now you’re trying to lure me back but no those days are gone my friend
I loved you so much that I thought that someday you could change
But all you brought me was a heart full of pain

You can’t touch me now there’s no feeling left
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath
What you did to me boy I can’t forget
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath

Don’t hold your breath eh eh

I was worried about you but you never cared about me none
You took my money and I know that you, you could kill someone
I gave you everything but nothing was ever enough
You were always jealous over such crazy stuff

You can’t touch me now there’s no feeling left
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath

What you did to me boy I can’t forget
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath

Don’t hold your breath

Move on don’t look back
I jumped off a train running off the tracks
Your day is gone face the facts
A bad movie ends and the screen fades to black
What you did to me boy I can’t forget
If you think I’m coming back

You can’t touch me now there’s no feeling left
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath
What you did to me boy I can’t forget
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath

Don’t hold your breath

You can’t touch me now there’s no feeling left
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath
What you did to me boy I can’t forget
If you think I’m coming back don’t hold your breath

Neil Diamond xx

I recently went to a Neil Diamond concert, and I was completely stunned! He was fantastic! Mr Diamond is in his seventies and he OWNED it!

SWEET CAROLINE (crowd: wah, wah, wah)
GOOD TIMES NEVER SEEMED SO GOOD (crowd: So good, so good, so good)
I'VE BEEN INCLINED (crowd: wah, wah, wah)

One of my best friends and I decided to dub Avril Lavigne's "What The hell" the theme song for this year, because we just want to be a little crazy for once :)

Avril Lavigne -- What The Hell

You say that I'm messing with your head
All cause I was making out with your friend
Love hurts whether it's right or wrong
I can't stop cause I'm having too much fun

You're on your knees
Begging please
Stay with me
But honestly
I just need to be a little crazy

All my life I've been good,
But now
I'm thinking What The Hell
All I want is to mess around
And I don't really care about
If you love me
If you hate me
You can save me
Baby, baby
All my life I've been good
But now
Whoaaa...
What The Hell

Hello

Just so you know, this is my first blog ever, so if there are any mistakes or whatever, please comment so that I can fix it. Thanks!

I don't really know what people usually say in blogs, but in mine I'm going to just jot down whatever is on my mind, and accompany it with fitting song lyrics :)

Like you've probably seen, my blog's title is in Afrikaans, and that's because my blog is going to be bilingual  :)
