pleasant suprise

today was my day off, no work or school so i decided to play with my makeup and watch anime. As I painted my face over with lipstick and heavy eyeshadow I looked in the mirror and was astounded. I actually looked exactly like I did years ago in high school. I havent really used heavy gothic makeup is so long I nearly forgot I used to love it so much.

Then I felt sad, I only wore metric tons of makeup because I thought I looked ugly without it.....and it took me years to finally leave my house without any on. As I cleared away the last dark smudges of charcoal black eyeshadow and ox blood lipstick I looked up and smiled. I really am lovely with or without makeup.

I'm so proud of myself for finally reaching this stage and being so confident.
