Let's face it. Every single man/boy/alien would die to be handsome. It's a part of our materialistic characteristic.

Who wouldn't want to attract all the ladies at the club, right? Or at least, be handsome to that someone special. Maybe you don't want popularity, you just want to be handsome for that someone.

We all do.

Matter of fact is, sometimes, we just can't change things.

I wish I was born with thicker hair that can be styled easily instead of consigning to the fate of having it look like a pom-pom every time I run or the wind blows. I wish I had a longer chin because I'm pretty much chinless.

Of course, with a bit of hairstyling and a minor surgery would get you that. It's easy nowadays.

But it has its limitations. I've permed my hair (do not tell my school leaders, by the way) over the June holidays in an attempt to make it "fluffier" and less susceptible to Mother Nature's breath. And well, sadly, I do look even more like a pom-pom now.

And I have thought of going for treatment for my chin. I wouldn't hide that, I have thought of it, and I had once really wanted to go for it.

So what's stopping me? Have I found that someone I can be handsome to? Have I attracted all the ladies at the club?

... Nien.

I'm not going to go cliche again and tell everyone about how self-confidence is important. It is, but it needs to be translated.

You may feel confident of yourself. You may jump out of bed and then exclaim,"TODAY IS THE DAY I WILL FEEL HANDSOME" or "I WILL PICK UP THE CHICKS" or "I AM GOING TO THE SUPERMARKET AND FIND MY PERFECT SALMON".

But so what? Confidence can only lead you to looking arrogant, ending up at the chicken or fish farm.

You need to translate that. Look glamorous. Present yourself well. Dress nicely. Iron your clothes and make sure it's neat.

It's easy to do the clothes part, but the appearance... Well, to be honest, I myself cannot do it either. I am unglamorous. I once ate with Mel and she commented that I wasn't the most elegant person on the dining table.

Still, the translation of confidence is key. You can't just feel confident on the inside and end up spilling carbonara sauce all over your tux. Translate it to your appearance, your expression, your actions.

I'm not even sure if my new blogging inspirations are appropriate... I mean, I don't have much of personal problems so... I guess "big topics" like these may entice me much more.
