Side by side comparison.

It’s the 6 month mark everybody! As such I’m doing comparison photos. I barely fit into that shirt btw! I may be completely unable to wear it for the 9 month comparison. I feel like I’ve come so far in only half a year. Make sure to also check out my voice video comparison I posted. I’m so pleased with how far my voice has dropped!

side by side comparison, i decided to redo the 2015 version since I didn’t like the dress and how unfinished it looked, hence the 2016 version which is a bit more cleaned up and more dynamic in terms of colors and design.

You have brown eyes. Everyone else in your family has blue eyes. Your parents don't understand. One day, your mom asks you a question. "Why did you choose to have brown eyes?" You tell her that you didn't choose anything. She says, "You have no idea how devastating this is for me. This is not what I had in mind for you. A parent expects their child to turn out one way, and they don't." Now you're frustrated, so again, you tell her, "But I didn't choose to have brown eyes. It's part of my biological makeup. I can't just change it." But she's not really listening to you at this point. She's thinking about her image. "People are always asking me why your eyes are brown, and I don't know what to tell them. This is so embarrassing for me." So you respond with, "But mom, this isn't about you, it's about me." Still, she's not really listening to you. "It makes a parent wonder where they went wrong." You're thinking, "Went wrong? But nothings wrong with me." Your mom blames your father. He blames her. This goes on and on. Your mom thinks about putting you in therapy. You tell her, "There is no amount of therapy that can convince me to have blue eyes, because I didn't choose to have brown eyes." She thinks your young and ignorant. Finally, you tell her, "I can buy blue contacts. I can buy blue contacts, and I can wear them all day long, everywhere I go. And everyone I meet will know me as a person with blue eyes. I could do that. But every night, before going to sleep, I'd have to take those contacts out. And when that happens, my true eye color is revealed. I can't change my eye color. There's no such thing as laser eye surgery that permanently changes a persons eye color. Why? Because that would be considered unnecessary. Because there is nothing life threatening about having brown eyes. Nobody cares about my brown eyes. They don't affect my potential for success or capabilities. And one day, I'm gonna marry someone with brown eyes, and we'll be happy, whether you're at the wedding or not. Because brown eyes are beautiful, and I refuse to cover them up." She asks you what you want for lunch.
