"cute little baby face", uuugh Options

[cheri_pi]

so
in first period (chorus) my teacher was trying to get me to try out for this solo
she was like "shouldnt rebecca try it?"
and i was like noooo
and she was like "rebeccas got such a cute little baby face"
and everyone was like "aw yeah :)"
but even though she meant it as a compliment
i took it badly.
because i always feel like i look younger than i am.
i was 14 the summer before last. i went on a plane (alone) to visit some friends in another state
and the flightattendant lady was like "excuse me dear, are you older or younger than 10?" and i was like "aaah im almost 15".
so anyway
back to school.
i talked to my friend about it in 2nd period
and she was like "well it's kind of true. your face and your body..." and i was like "ugh! what a thing to say...
so now im all self-concious
and i was wondering what you all thought?
HONEST opinions.
i photoed myself in a not-very-flattering way
just the way i looked at school today.
oh-
and i REALLY dont mean to be one of those people that says "im ugly" just so you can be told that you're pretty. im genuinely concerned... even though i know its a shallow thing to worry about





i feel really icky about posting this...

what the hell is a baby face?

you just look like you've never done anything wrong in your life/have never heard of anything wrong in life, if that's what they're talking about. i don't know if you consider that good or bad.

you probably just don't look as feminine as most girls at your school. if you went to my school... i'd probably think you skipped a grade - i'm a sophomore.

if you want to get rid of the "baby" impression, then work out until confidence comes out your ears.
