If only I could withstand pain...


Two Hundred Pound Beauty, a movie I watched over the weekend, which touches on the current cosmetic surgery trend in Korea and the extent that girls go to just to achieve that perfect look...


I finally found a way to reduce my laser disc to the size of a mini disc! But... there's no way in H**L I would ever do that.. people who know me will strongly agree that my pain tolerance level is close to zero.. I find an ear piercing painful for crying out loud, when even my 10 year old cousin says that it's like an ant bite! How depressing is that??? But I digress..


I found the answer in one of the posts put up by Popseoul. It starts with an L.. any guesses? Ah, can't be bothered to play such games, the answer's LIPOSUCTION!! Doesn't it sound painful already? Imagining the fat all over my face being slowly sucked out send shivers down my spine! Breaking out in cold sweat as I type!!


I found out that many Korean artists actually go and restructure their faces, preferring the Kuaci (sunflower seed) look over their original orange faces or block faces. I would agree that the kuaci look looks a lot better in pics, but can you imagine chiselling your jaw just to get that sharp chin?? PAIN! PAIN! PAIN!


And on top of that I'd probably have to sell a few organs just to be able to pay for my kuaci face... EVEN MORE PAIN... Not exactly the best option for me.. Besides, why would anyone do that willingly? For celebs, I guess the promise of more money and fame plus the fact that the entertainment industry is super competitive would be enough to send any celeb to the plastic surgeons.. but for normal citizens like me?? What's in it for me?? No fame, money or even freebies from endorsements! What's the point??


I suppose that for me, what's more important is being able to chew my food properly without having to worry that my jaw will drop off, or not having to suffer from all sorts of illnesses due to my lack of organs (coz I sold them all to pay for my cosmetic surgery). I'll continue my search for ways to minimising my laser disc, but if I can't, oh well.. at least I still have a face (and all my organs) intact!


Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder anyways right? My dreams of snagging a Korean hottie still lives on!!!
