take more pictures of myself

...and i want to change that. i have a friend who keeps asking for a full length pic of me, but i don’t have any because i don’t like the way that i look. i feel fat. i want to get to a point in my life that i don’t mind having my picture taken so much…

Another of my goals is to love myself more. I’ve always been one to downplay my strengths and good qualities, and I wish I would stop doing that. Being able to see myself in pictures without groaning inside would be nice!

for some reason my family isnt that big on taking pictures (or developing them for that matter-seriously my mom has a box of film from when I was in middle school…im currently 20). Im not sure what the deal is but we dont have very many recent pictures of our family, so Im trying to get them to take more pictures.

Anyway, the topic at hand, I dont have a whole lot of pictures of myself. And it sucks because I do a lot of fun stuff I just never think to bring a camera or I bring one and forget I have it, lol. It would be nice to have photographic evidence of the stuff I do, places I go, and the super cute outfits I put together, lol.

I plan to take a few new pictures of myself this week,

This is really hard! I need to stop immediately flinching every time I see a picture of myself. I need to accept myself for who I am. I know that I have a lot of great qualities, but beauty doesn’t rank high on that list.
