some like it fake

is it better to be fake because it seems real or real because it seems fake? when you look at a picture or a flower, do you say "wow that looks real" or "it looks fake"? if a flower looks too perfect we may think it looks fake or real, depending on our view. i suppose it depends on our attitude. if fake looks better to us, we'll see a flawless flower as seeming fake, whereas if we like realism more, we'd probably think it looked real. i think it's funny that when people get plastic surgery to fix flaws and look more "real" it makes them look "fake". the more perfect we try to become on the outside, the more ridiculous we look, so start focusing on improving the inside and becoming more real personality wise.

the pains of fame

i often realize what a pain it would be to be a celebrity. the constant paparazzi stalking, infidelity, everything you do or say becomes a controversy, not to mention the lies and assumptions made by the tabloids. i've been feeling quite bloated the last few days and have an even deeper sympathy for those in the spotlight. if they even have a little bloating from gas or pms, they are dubbed "pregnant" or "showing off their baby bump". i personally know what it's like to have (many) people ask me if i'm pregnant when i'm not...but at least they ask before spreading the news abroad the earth. thankfully, those that know me know that a bump...or many bumps...on me is normal and not to assume. so count your many blessings you're not famous because you can live life and not be judged for it.
