The majority of teenager girls suffer from some sort of self esteem problem. Girls and women alike had higher self esteem years ago, before the internet came around. But self esteem has always been an issue for women. Many people seem to think that if our body isn't a size 3 or smaller, we're plus size, fat, obese, overweight, unloveable, and unwanted. The average American woman is a size 10, so why do we believe that when we are in fact normal, we're not? This leads to eating disorders, such as anorexia, bulimia, and complusive eating. Everyone is completely beautiful and lovely in their own way. Everyone has diffrent features; some people have flawless skin, or beautiful eyes, or a lovely smile. But you know what really matters? Your heart. Large, small, tall, or short, in the end, your personality is the only thing that will matter.
I would love to hear your thoughts on this, so please, comment away :)

Love is love.
I'm sure you're wondering what "a l'oeuvre, on connait l'ouvrier" means. It's a French proverb. It means, a carpenter is known by his chips. Only cool people post stuff in French :)
I guess everyone is doing this blog thing, and it seems like a good place to put down some of the thoughts that I constantly ponder in my head.
What I'm thinking about right now is love. People say "I love you" pretty much daily, but I think it's a word that teenagers misuse constantly. I mean seriously. I have friends who will date someone, and after two days they say their in love with them. And I have friends who will cheat constantly on their girlfriends/boyfriends and still say they love them. You don't fall in love with someone after a few days of dating. I've never been completely in love with someone. I will be, someday, but not now. I have friends that I love, but in a friend type of way. It just burns me up how quickly teenagers are to say "I love you," when they probably don't even know what true love is.
Love is love. Period. You can't sort of love someone. You either do or you don't. And I doubt that these teenagers are seriously in love.
This is it for now...feel free to post your thoughts.
