i've got a new toy :P

what's with the obssession over beauty?

over the past few days i've been reading articles and having conversations about beauty. i for one am not the kind of person who'd go out of my way to make sure i look good in public. i figured that if i was going to spend so much time and effort trying to look attractive i wouldn't be having any fun. there's a reason why i'm given what i have...and yes there might be certain things that i don't like about my physical appearance but i'm not going to hide it. the media has poisoned people into thinking that in order to be desired they have to look like charlize theron or nicole kidman. and some people actually buy it. everything is so concentrated on aesthetics that inner beauty is forgotten. nobody seems to care about intelligence and wit...compassion and love. when did people become so jaded?

on a brighter note...i've finally gotten a new computer. i say finally only because this is the first computer i've owned and bought on my own ever since my laptop was stolen a year and a half ago. i guess its about time since most of my work now involves microsoft office.
