Wishing For Different Eyes
We received this letter from a young lady in Asia. The Asian people are so beautiful so this makes us sad to think this insecure woman feels she needs to look different. She writes:
If my fairy godmother were to be in front of me, I would make a wish to make my eyes bigger. Being an Asian, I have to accept the fact that there’s nothing much that I can do about it. All Asians generally have smaller eyes - especially if they are Chinese like myself. Well it’s not that I want to complain about my genes or anything, but it just makes me wonder how great it would be to have those big round eyes so that I could put on eye liner to make my eyes look perfect. Sometimes I envy the gorgeous Caucasian look that has those round and big eyes. It makes them stand out from the crowd.
I try to overcome the problem by putting on mascara and by using an eyelash curler. After all that effort it doesn’t seems to show any positive effect and the worst part is, it makes my eyes look strange and unnatural. I was thinking of going for a plastic surgery but that will have to be in the future because the surgery costs can be quite high and it is equivalent to almost 1 year of my salary.
When I was in my teens I had the opportunity to enter a beauty pageant contest representing my social club. Although being skeptical at first, I managed to convince myself to enter. I tried my best to put on a good look and impress the judges. I was very unlucky that day because the mascara I had applied, suddenly dropped off. I was so embarrassed by the whole incident that I swore that if there’s one thing I can do before I die, it would be to make my eyes become bigger.
Another unforgettable incident was when I had a chance to visit the UK during one of my company trips. I had a crush on this cute British guy and was so impressed with his gentlemenly attitude. Alas, after a very long conversation I could sense that he had no interest in me. I can’t help but wonder if I had bigger and rounder eyes it may have made some difference. Well if my fairy godmother is reading this article I hope she will grant me this wish.
Jenny, 26.
