My Body

In relation to my personality, I have to say my physicality fits me pretty well. The first thing someone would notice about my body is that I'm fairly tall for a girl. Im a good 5'7" with a rotten posture that my mother constantly on edge about. I have a very pessimistic view on life so the hunch works out well. As for the height I think it adds to a good deal of my intimidation factor. Not to mention it makes my presence a bigger one. I have large feet and hands, which I use a lot for gestures and visual explanation. I believe my hands give me one of the few very feminine features about me. It fits mostly because I'm not a very 'girly' girl in any way (exceptions do occur.) Im gifted with my long arms and legs, because it correlates with my high expectations, I always expect people to be better then me so, a lot of the time I end up being a jerk when I exceed them somehow (yeah, I know its mean.) My teeth are one of my most prominent features, they're long, and very sharp. And all of my teeth oddly look like everyone else's front teeth. I honestly think they relate to what a smart-ass I can be. I'm pretty witty and I feel like a mouth can give off exactly my snarky criticism. I have a pretty lanky build where you can see my bones alot through my skin, though I'm not very thin. I think this extenuates my nerve to get right to the point I'm very honest and don't like sugar coated explanations. I don't need to put pretty skin over truth. For me personally I wouldn't change a thing about my body because it predicts me so well. I have to say before I did this I wasn't so sure but now, I could see more comparisons then I even imagined.

  1. Heya, Holly.
    Great post! I love when you say, "I don't need to put pretty skin over truth"--that sorta line belongs in a poem. Really like how you explored the relationship between your physicality and personality. Way to investigate prompt. Way to get deep into the meat of things!

  2. Hi Holly!

    I love the way you write!! When you said you had rotten posture which your mom is constantly on edge about, I love that. I think you have a really unique style which is awesome and makes your writing so much more readable. Good work!!
