When I was in high school, I was sooooo fat, clumsy, wearing eye glasses, awkward, wearing pony tails all the time and unfashionable and that reached until college. It was so sad because the clothes I was wearing then was just old clothes from my cousins and aunts. I was so fat because I want to eat a lot and my glasses? good thing we used to have the same eye grade as my mother's and she always lend it to me. We were so poor in other words and most of them did not understand my situation. I was even being the subject of betting games and bullies.
When I got my first income from my first job, my mom said, you need to enjoy your blessings first so that is why, I asked my friend to scout for clothes, make-ups and parlors.
Grooming myself is one of my habits and I don't regret what I did, but still my family's needs is always my priority. My former classmates saw me anywhere and they did not believe that I was once a geek...

ellavilla, i dont think being a geek is a badthing. its just a statement that pathetic inscure people use to other person they do not like liking.
Dont label yourself as a geek or anything negative. ITs just a matter of perspective. Probably yeah okay you are once a geek but you arent now. What you put in your mid reflects you personality and how you interact with people.
If you want to stay a 'geek' like you said then go ahead but to tell you ellavilla, its just a statement that everyone should never ever bother using again. :D
