In response to "to my 15-year-old self: take acting/singing lessons -- nm" by znufrii

really when I was 15, I was still spending all my time trying to be *just like my sister* because everyone always talked about how great she was.

while I do get that those years of hating myself for not being her, being *perfect* had value in shaping who I am today (allows me objectivity), I would tell myself, though I would never believe me, that it's okay to have flaws; that people will one day like me *for* my flaws and not in spite of them.

I cannot believe I ever wanted to be perfect. it must be dastardly dull.
