advantages of being ugly...

i am not visually pleasing. to put it bluntly i'm ugly. it didnt bother me much since i have a mom who says i'm beautiful. even if i know it is said out of her innate maternal blindness when it comes to this matter i believe her anyway.

highschool is the real training ground for the real world. its where you'll find out that its advantagious for one to be visually pleasing. it gets you to high and far places. but of course as we all know most of these gifted people doesnt have much brains in their heads. take my older brother for example. he is the ultimate crush ng bayan. he is tall, artistahin-looking, even got a band. but what ticks me off is that he was totally brainless back then. he takes more time to groom himself up than to actually tickle his brains to work. anyway good thing for him his learn to use his brains now and buy books during payday.

i once told him if i was born with his face and my brains i'm probably off to some far and high places by now...anyways...

people said most of the ugly ones like are smart because they have nothing else to boast about. like some sort of making up for what we lack. will, not really. the reason we took to filling up our brains is that since we dont spend much time looking at ourselves in the mirror or staying in public places for the purpose of being seen, we opted to reading books and learning stuff by ourselves instead.

sometimes i thank the heavens i'm born ugly. i'd rather be ugly than without brains. but sometimes though i took to not using my brains at all. i can see that in my past entries. anyways this must be one of those days that i feel smart and ugly...
