I always think “I wish I was more beautiful,” but I have decided to never have cosmetic surgery. The other day, one of my friends told to me, “I have a complex too. If you think that you are not beautiful, your face won’t look good. But if you think that you are beautiful, you will be beautiful now. So, let’s think positively!” I was happy to hear that. A large number of people have a complex. Whether you have cosmetic surgery or not depends on your own decision. I want to take good care of my original self, and I want to have confidence. I think that I should start with positive thinking. (written by student Miss K, edited by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
