Brain stuffs, KeyePhone memories, and emotional diarrhea : Seoul part 3 (Days 3 and 4): No Rae Bon? Yes Rae Bon.

Walking around Korea you'll notice people (I only saw females) with bandages around their faces. After sliced bread, the next coolest thing is sliced face. Everyone knows plastic surgery is a thang in Korea, but it's interesting to me how public/nonchalant they are about the post-op. In fact, Daniel said they flaunt it; in a way, it's showing off that you have the money to get the surgery. Social status is directly proportional to plastic surgery. Regarding appearance and finding an s.o., to me, chemistry with a person is always the most important thing. Looks fade, what matters most is how well you click with someone. So don't just look on the outside, look within! Not to say appearance doesn't matter AT ALL, of course there has to be physical attraction as well, it's part of the whole package, but to me, it's about how good your mesh is. On the flip side, how you perceive yourself affects your mood, which in turn affects your day-to-day living. Being someone that struggles with self-esteem, I know how confidence goes a long way in how you approach life, so it is understandable. BUT! These are all created by societal pressures, which vary from peoples to peoples. Ultimately, you are what makes you you, it may be hard but don't conform to society! Appreciate the diversity in people, and love you for you.

Here are some highlights from Days 3 and 4.
