Beauty Is Beyond Size: #GainingWeightIsCool

(Round face, fat ass and broad shoulders - Yeah, I know I'm beautiful)


The standard of being beautiful changes overtime – from having the finest skin to the thinnest body figure. Beauty as define by the dictionary is the quality of being “physically attractive”. It is the qualities in a person that give pleasure to the senses or the mind.

Being thin may be pleasing to one’s eye, white-skinned woman may be attractive to others but the standard of being beautiful isn’t just plainly about the size of your waist and the color of your skin.

Like every other curvy girls out there, I have been called fat several times. Friends and relatives who would see me after a long time would say “You’re so fat now. What happen?” It may sound offensive but I always don’t take it seriously. It’s a secret I guess that I can share with you. Always look for the positive side in every negative situation – laugh it out! At some point I wanted to slap them or just walk out but I chose to just laugh it out and say “I’m a foodie. I love exploring different food choice.” Then the conversation ends.

Remember that life isn’t measured using a small piece of measuring tape, your worth as a woman is not based on the broadness of your shoulder and most importantly your beauty isn’t measured by the size of your thighs. If you’re jealous of the girl beside you for having the flattest tummy ever – then don’t! If you’re envious of the girl across you for having thinnest thighs and shoulder, please don’t!

The society may dictate what beauty is – having the fairest skin, the thinnest body and the tallest height. But isn’t this all just what other people say and think? Why let others define you? Why let them affect your worth? Why not let them see that beauty is beyond physical appearance?

Your beauty reflects on how you carry yourself around and your confidence with your body. BEAUTY IS BEYOND SIZE! As soon as you start loving yourself for who you really are than what the society dictates, then you became the beautiful woman you always wanted to be. 

Always be that beautiful little girl your mom saw the moment she brought you in this world – the girl who made her parents smile the moment she cried on the delivery room. Love yourself the way your parents love you the moment they saw you. Love and thank yourself for being able to live life the way you always wanted to be. Thank yourself for being the bravest girl despite all the body shaming and the bullying you’ve experience. Give yourself a pat on the shoulder for being able to show the world that your body size did not become a hindrance in achieving your ultimate dream (just like Miss Universe-Canada).

I am proud of you girl, yes you – with the big thighs and broad shoulders, for being able to show the world that beauty comes in different shapes and sizes. And I am one big proud fat ass little girl, too! Hooray for every girl who enjoys and appreciate their body size ‘coz #GainingWeightIsCool.

So to all the girls who were called chubby, fat and overweight don’t get depressed. Being fat doesn’t make you any less of a person – you are beautiful and you are unique. You’re body figure does not define your character and most specially your worth.

You are a woman – worthy of the respect and love no matter what size you’re in.


YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!

Love,
Marsy

Travel Guide to Bislig and Hinatuan (Surigao del Sur)

Image
Surigao del Sur is part of the Caraga region located in Mindanao. It is situated in the eastern coast of Mindanao facing the Philippine Sea to the east - so expect beautiful islands and strong waves. Since our entry and exit point is Davao City, we need to travel for 6-8 hours by land to reach Surigao del Sur. FROM DAVAO (FRANCISCO BANGOY INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT): (Tagum Terminal) We arrived late in the evening so we decided to hire van that will take us directly to Tagum Bus Terminal where we can hop on a bus going to Mangagoy, Bislig. We were offered by one of the local drivers P2,000 for the van but we haggled it to P1,500. We arrived at Tagum around 1:00 AM (Day 1). The earliest bus to Mangagoy is at 4:00AM so we waited for about three hours. Bus fare is P270. Around 9:00AM, we were finally at Mangagoy, Bislig. We took a tricycle to Paper Country Inn (PCI), which we pre-booked via phone for P1,750 (for 7 pax). Tricycle is P10 each. Kuya Gary (member of DIYTri

THE PACIFIC RECREATION KAMP (PaRK)

Image
If you’re looking for a quick weekend getaway, Reál, Quezon is the place to be; away from all the hustle and bustle of the metro. It’s a 3-4 hours’ drive from Manila. We’re a group of nineteen who wanted to escape for a little while and just sit back and relax. So we decided to go on a journey off to Reál, Quezon. It was a very short vacation yet a relaxing one. We chose to stay at Pacific Recreation Kamp or popularly known as “The PaRK”. It is located at KM 115, Brgy. Tignoan, Reál, Quezon. From its name itself, it is not plainly a resort but also a park. What interests us most is that we could choose between renting a house, a room, an open cottage, or just pitch a tent. The area is not as crowded as any other nearby resorts. They have a spacious parking space and pitching area. They also offer other recreational activities like water rafting and surfing.  (Price Rates) Since we’re a big group, we were offered to stay in a two-story house. We’re lucky enough tha

Britania Group of Islands: The Hundred Islands of Surigao del Sur

Image
Britania Group of Islands (San Agustin, Surigao del Sur) is comprised of 24 islets but only a few can be visited. There are only four beach destinations for island hopping: Hagonoy Island, Naked Island, Boslon Island, and Hiyor Hiyoran Island. From Bislig to San Agustin: Since we are staying at Bislig, Surigao del Sur, we need to travel for about 2-3 hours north to reach San Agustin. Good thing we have Kuya Gary and Kuya Justin with a helping hand who arranged our transfers. They contacted a private van that can take us directly to our hotel in San Agustin. We got our transfer for only P1,500. Where we stay: We pre-booked our stay at Oasis Rest House via Airbnb for only  P3,348 for 1 night good for 7 pax. Construction on some part of the place is still ongoing but the place is good if you are just looking for a place to stay for the night after a long tiring island hopping during the day. Besides, the owner and the staffs are accommodating; they even talked with
