So on my whole journey of bettering myself and figuring out who I am after being quite lost for way too fucking long, I've come to realise that OLD ALEX who seemed to actually like herself a lot would take so many selfies and thoroughly enjoy putting on make up and making herself pretty. I was going through my photos on my phone today and I realised that there are literally no selfies. There was about one selfie that I took in Canada and probably felt guilty about in the moment. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY!!! Where did this guilt come from? I used to take all dem photos and be proud of them and now I don't really look in the mirror all that much because I'm obviously not happy with how I look. But the thing is that I don't think I am unhappy with how I look. I've put on a bit of weight but I've also never really been someone to care so much about that. I always thought I was comfortable in my own skin. Basically all I'm going to do after realising this is start taking more photos of myself. Even if they have to be silly one's at first... I think maybe that'll make me appreciate my appearance a bit more and then maybe I'll even start putting in effort again! I always promote the idea of loving oneself and I tend to teach it to the kids that I look after as well. I think it's just something that I'm still trying to teach my subconscious.
