I went to Carribean Bay! It was soooooo much fun. I LOVE water
. Then we went to Everland after..
My experience:
.
A cultural difference I noticed was that everyone showers and changed clothes together in one room. That was a little shocking but it made me comfortable with my body because everyone was so comfortable with theirs so I gained some confidence.
.
Another thing is that almost all of the girls did their makeup before and after swimming. And even fixed their hair. I think it is a cultural difference because Korea is a society where everyone feels the need to be perfect when in reality I think guys actually don't care. Usually in America we just don't wear makeup and let our hair dry naturally as it is when we go swimming. No one cares what you look like.
.
I think women are especially pressured to look perfect. But I feel like Korean women pressure each other and themselves more than men do. They already look beautiful but they feel the need to fix everything.
.
Usually a guy will like me more if I'm open about not wearing makeup in front of them or just being natural. I like wearing makeup but I'm not afraid to be natural when I want to.
.
Someone who truly loves you will appreciate all of your natural aspects more than if you pretend to be something else all the time.
.
I think people have to learn to accept themselves. Especially women. Isn't it exhausting putting on a mask everyday? Learn to love yourself for the beauty you already have.
