Perfection...at its finest!

Average cost of a rhinoplasty: five thousand, five hundred dollars
Average cost of porcelain veneers: roughly fifteen hundred dollars
The much appreciated confidence boost: PRICELESS.


Wondering why i even wrote that? Well because I'm trying to think up a way to concoct enough money for these two procedures, shocking yes? I re-awoke, and i say re because i was subconsciously conscious of it, when today in English, my teacher instructed us to write a direct narrative dialogue of someone in the class and share it. Needless to say we were fairly intrigued of others interpretation of us, but when the person got up to read it was obvious it was of me, glasses and the large nose, were dead give a way's. Now don't think I'm so soft that i can't handle something minute like that, it's just that, that terribly harsh and mean depiction of me re-opened sours and cuts i've been trying to escape since roughly second or third grade. Guess what? I was teased. Not like every kid isn't at some point but no, i was teased and bullied for all of elementary school and up to eighth grade, it really helped me with my confidence...haha. One thing it DEFINITELY helped with was my knock out sense of humor and sarcasm, I'm perfect at that.


Now to come off the bus once in a while crying isn't so bad, but EVERYDAY? Give me a break, sure it made me stronger, and i can take criticism easy but I'm terribly uncomfortable when taking a picture or talking to someone or being out in general cause of the bulbous like growth in the middle of my face, ce le nez. Besides getting countless nose jokes such as it took up half of my face, which in all actuality makes no sense, i also got made fun of for my teeth, oh yes my teeth, these lovely things that help me eat; yup even you.


Now I'm not saying that EVERY person should run out and get a knife deep into a set area of skin just because they got made fun of, but if it's to the point where you are EXTREMLY self conscious and can't even think about doing something without that body part coming into play, or you can't seem to get over it after years of self-therapy and watching Oprah episodes, then i feel as if your a pretty good candidate. The easy part is simply just reading up on it and deciding to do it, the hard part is getting the money and the right doctor; no butced surgery needed here thank you. Why did i forget to mention approval from family? Because in all actuality that doesn't have a thing to do with what you've experienced out side of their watchful protective eyes and it probably won't change your thoughts on getting this life changing surgery.


This is just a thought, but it will happen. Share your opinion if you wish :]

  1. You should be proud of that schnozzle you have. You know why? B/c your not the only one in your family that has it. Both of my parents have it, our Grandparents have it, hell even most of our family has it. Sure it's hard getting teased on for it but look at it this way. The people who did the teasing and the "hottest" or "most popular" girl or guy will be irrelevant after high school and you'll be super successful...and more awesome and they'll be mere peasants in comparison (I have old issues to resolve apparently)
