When I was a child, I seldom went out because my parents were so busy at work, and I was too young to go out by myself. While other girls at my age were talking about clothes and make up, I still busy with my video games. Many years passed, I finally look like a girl now, but after all these things that I been though, I know the importance of good-looking can change a pubescent girl. Then I found out my cousin Sandy, her classmates have been making fun of her for her appearance, and she seldom have any self- confidence. And the worst thing is, her mother never take it serious, sometime she even mock at Sandys weight. At Sandys junior high graduate party, she was supposed to wear a jeans and t-shirt to that party and she told me that her classmates were planning to wear evening dress. At that time I promise to myself, I would not let her to that party without a perfect outfit. I fixed her hair, bought her dress and taught her how to make up. Although I am not good at this, but I tried my best to make her realize that she can be beautiful too. Story 2:
