Body Image
I have an extremely unhealthy obsession with my body. I was blessed, sarcastically speaking, cursed with these enormous 34D cup boobs. Ever since I began to develop some curves, I was kind of ahead from the rest of my peers. Boys at school would just stare at me in a rude manner and girls would nudge each other and give me this bitchy look. Having such gigantic jugs, I have been limited to some activities. I could not run because my breasts would give an ‘earthquake like’ tremor to the rest of my body let alone the rest of the world, and finding the perfect fitting clothes or bras at size-biased stores in Jakarta is impossible because a tight t-shirt makes me look like a sad porn star and loose-fit clothes creates a pregnant woman silhouette for me.Initially, I thought all of these mistakes came from me, meaning that I was slightly overweight. Mum always encouraged me that personality and intellectuality are more important than physical beauty, but having these silicon-implanted look-alikes protruding on my chest instantly made male colleagues think of me as a slutty airhead.

I could not believe my ears as I listened more to their conversation, both wanted to inflate their breasts two sizes up, into what they believe was more a womanly figure. As I slowly opened my t-shirt, I noticed that both of them were prying at my breasts in amazement and I could vaguely hear one girl whispered “nice tits” to the other as they start to walk out of the room. Hell yeah I was ecstatic to see the before and after pictures of the patients who have undergone the operation. One woman’s breasts actually went down almost two cups from a pendulous 34 D to 34B, the perfect tear-shape size I have always dreamt of! Yet the sparks of happiness started to fade out, as soon as I saw the cost of the-so-called reconstructive surgery! The five figures (I am talking dollars here!) numbers actually had sunk my last hope of saying goodbye to the Dolly nickname (from Dolly Parton, not the cloning sheep!), just like the iceberg that hit the Titanic. Cursing to myself and my Mum’s generous genes, I tried to seek some contemplation by going to the gym (hey, this girl still believes if we try hard enough at least God would answer our prayers!).
