A However, some people become so insecure because of unfair judgment passed on them based

on their appearance, that they actually begin using their appearance as a tool to hide who they

really are. That’s unnatural and the person they turn into ends up being quite unlikable to

those outside their group most of the time. We were all born the way we were for a reason.

Granted, it may be a reason we don’t yet understand, but there is a reason and instead of

trying to run from our differences and fit in with everyone else, we should understand who we

are. That will bring us that much closer to finding the answer, to why we are the way we are.

B Aries – is mostly of medium height and athletically built. The head and forehead are standing

out. Eyebrows are bushy. His temper is fiery. Such person is a ground breaker in everything.

He is very active and energetic, prefers to act then think of his deeds. The head injuries may

take place.

C With all of the character customization options that you get with Skyrim, it’s easy to go

overboard and choose an appearance that seems exciting at first, but that quickly loses its

appeal. If you’ve already invested dozens of hours in your character, earned a ton of gold, and

completed numerous quests, it’s not surprising if you don’t want to go back and do it all over

again with a new character just to change the way you look. Fortunately, there is a way to

change your character’s name and appearance later in the game by using the console. You can

also use this to change your sex if you want, just don’t change your race!

D When he was forty-one years of age Wesley was described by Dr. Kennicott as being “neither

tall nor fat. … His black hair, quite smooth and parted very exactly, added to a peculiar

composure in his countenance, showed him to be an uncommon man.” Tyerman says, “In

person Wesley was rather below the middle size, but beautifully proportioned, without an

atom of superfluous flesh; yet muscular and strong, with a forehead clear and smooth, a bright

penetrating eye, and a lovely face, which retained the freshness of its complexion to the latest

period of his life.”

E Hello, I was wondering does anyone know if it’s possible to get the Cleric armour appearance

from the character creation screen? I’ve found that you can get ones similar to it by buying or

finding half plates that have the full plate icon, but I haven’t found the exact appearance so

far. It’s the one with the chain robe and the armoured shoulders and neck piece with the

tabard over the top, it’s really a driving incentive for me to find this armour if possible, also

does anyone know if the Paladin armour from the character creation screen exists in the

game? I play on the Sarlona server and my character is named Grimand Oathhammer, if

anyone has either of these armours and they are sellable, would they be willing to sell or trade

with me?

F If you are good, personality comes naturally. No matter what color, race or religion you

belong to, if you are a good human being, you will never be alone. All you need is to believe

in what you do, and do it with complete dedication, honesty and love. And, your efforts will

be rewarded. If you are good at something, believe in your talent, don’t look back. If you want

to, you can! This is the kind of confidence, you get when you believe in your strengths and

values. Every individual is a different package and everyone has a personality.

G Appearance speaks a lot for you than personality. For instance when you appear for an

interview, the interviewer will judge your appearance before he gets to know your personality.

Suppose you are meeting your potential in-laws for the first time, you are dressed in a dirty

jeans, sandals and shaggy hair, believe me you will not a get a wife! You need to look

presentable for you to be taken seriously. First of all from the description above, you will be

expressing yourself as a disorganized person. I think appearance is very important.

Why Some Don’t Care About Their Appearance

Despite the extremely superficial nature of this society there are still people who are able

to avoid the notion that you have to adapt to a particular standard of beauty mainly because they

are comfortable in their own skin. To outsiders it might appear that these individuals don’t care

at all what they look like when the reality is that they simply have different priorities, and so

even if their appearance doesn’t feature very highly on their list it doesn’t mean that they give no

consideration to their appearance whatsoever.

For some individuals appearance is extremely important because it gives them an edge.

They may already feel confidence when they are with colleagues and friends, but looking good

gives them the extra boost they need.

Other people don’t attribute that much importance to appearances, especially if they have

a laid-back attitude, are confident in themselves, and don’t have a job which requires power-

dressing. This doesn’t mean they don’t care about their appearance; just that they have better

things to do with their time than dressing up when all they are going to do is sit behind a desk all

day.

Some people do care about their appearance, although it may not look that way to others.

There are individuals who possess their own unique sense of style, which might entail showing

off their tattoos and piercings, as well as wearing clothes which don’t seem to go together and

look rather scruffy. However, these individuals may well belong to their own ‘tribe’ and this is

their uniform. As far as their fellow ‘members’ are concerned they are one of them, and are

dressed to reflect this. The rest of the world might think these individuals don’t care about their

appearance, but usually the opposite is true.

Not stated).

Of course, there are those who really don’t care what they look like, and usually

justifiably so. If you’re homeless, have a drink or drug problem, or a mental health issue, you can

be forgiven for not making your appearance a priority.

Unfortunately, everybody is judged by their appearance in this society, so that if you

don’t fit in with what is expected you are usually written off as being a bit weird. Everybody has

their ups and downs, though, and surely nobody spends every second of their life trying to look

their best. There are occasions when you’re sick or are grieving and feel down, so that the last

thing on your mind is your appearance. Only the people closest to you are able to judge if you

are ‘yourself’ or not, though, since strangers see you for a split second without comprehending

how you are feeling at any given moment.

Most people do care about their appearance when they are in good spirits and things are

going well in their life because they want to demonstrate that they belong to this society, which

generally means conforming to certain standards in terms of their appearance. There may be

some who decide to ignore convention, but these tend to be in the minority, while very few

individuals don’t care at all what others think about the way they look.

A 7 Some people don’t care about their looks as they find it unimportant.
