Unit 1 Face values Its all about ME!(P3)Unit 1 Understanding ideas P2-2.mp3 “Me”.Its a small word with big meaning,and that meaning is as individual to each of us as the way we look.Through interviews,I was able to discover what“me”means to other people,and how they have learnt to appreciate the beauty in themselves.Psychologist,Dr HartJade,24,accounting manager As a song in Ugly Betty puts it,“Its a pretty persons world”.I understand this more than most,as I have always been plain-looking.Im a girl whod love to look good.Well,whowouldnt?So,ever since Idiscovered selfie apps that could remove my freckles,enlarge my eyes and even slim my jawline,I have become addicted.I spend hours every day editing my selfies,posting them and eagerly checking my phone a hundred times for comments.Each“like”boosts my confidence.Dad thinks I am a narcissist,but what I say is that my pictures arent hurtinganyone,so who cares?Dr Hart says:Obsessive online photo editing indicates a lack of self-confidence and a desire for attention.However,the image Jade presents to obtain the praise of others is false.People who pretend to be someone they are not tend to misjudge themselves.Anthony,21,college student I never really cared about my appearance.Thats why I could never understand my sister,who has 17 lipsticks and cant decide which one to use every morning.I only used to havefive identical pairs of trousers and five identical shirts.When I first moved into my dormitoryat college,this made my roommates quite confused as they saw me in the same clothes dayafter day.Last month they registered me for a TV programme,“A New You”.It felt bizarre atfirst.I didnt like being reviewed from head to toe.But I was surprised at how good I lookedafter the makeover!For the first time in my life I saw myself as a handsome and well-presented young man.At that moment,I perceived that external beauty isnt totally worthless.It can be an expressionof our personalities,helping us make a good and positive impression on others.Dr Hart says:Its true that inner beauty is very important,but external beauty shouldnt be completelyoverlooked.It plays a part in the image we present to the world,and making an effort withyour appearance can leave a positive first impression on others and boost your confidence.Emma,17,senior high school studentEver since I was little,Ive been larger than other girls.For a long time,this really botheredme.People would stare at me because I was“big”and I hated the way I looked.My anxiety drove me to try every means possible to lose weight,including dieting and weight-loss pills,but this brought me nothing but pain and poor health.Everything changed when one day I came across the success story of a plus-size model,Tess Holliday.Although shes larger than most other models,shes really attractive and has the confidence to be herself even in an industry full of beauty stereotypes.Her story changed my ideas about what it means to be beautiful.I realised that my health,mental and physical,is the most important thing.Now I exercise a couple of times a week but just to keep fit.I mean,isnt it better that Im large and happy,instead of skinny and unhealthy?Dr Hart says:I completely agree with Emma being healthy is beautiful,and we should wear that beautywith confidence.What I really admire is the way she has acknowledged that good health notonly makes us more beautiful,but happier,too!Its all about ME!“Me”.Its a small word with big meaning,and that meaning is as individual to each of us as the way we
