My Metamorphosis...
"The world is my canvass, in it I sketched laughter, drenched it with tears, brushed my fears in a rush, colored it with my dreams.. what a piece of art I have made........ my life."
- Beryl Tejedor
I saw a woman today, a nobody I think, a regular Filipina, but something was confusing about her face though, ahh, yeah! her eyes were blue! yup, like BLUE.. these things still disturb me, ok, we do need contacts if our eyes are bad, my husband can't live without it, some of my friends wear something brownish or hazel to bring out their eyes or to look more mestiza or a little fancy I guess since you'll look a bit foreign with lighter eyes...
But to go as extreme as green, or grey and blue when your skin and features screams 100% Malay... FILIPINO! it's just over reaching.. almost hilarious.. no offense, but what do people try to prove when they mask their ethnicity? that they would look better? I mean c'mon, it's not like having blue/green eyes is not supposed to come hand in hand with a pale-ish skin... errr...?
I know people have their right to their own decisions and choices as I am to my opinions, but it's just ridiculous, I always loved my sister's brown skin, and at some point I think I wanted that skin, why try to mask it? whew.. some people huh? don't give me that look now.. it's just an opinion.
