My stylist outdid himself this time with my hair color it’s really fun and creative and so vivid… darker auburn at the roots, rich violet red on the lengths and the ends look like licks of flame. So it was nice to see that it made an impression on somebody the first time I went out after washing it. Superficial as a response to this ask but appreciated! (It’s unfortunate that the emoji library on here isn’t updated 🐦🔥) Actually also number two a colleague I regularly work with called me brilliant in a big meeting he was leading in front of some of our executive leadership. In my head I was like You really think so?? 🥹
at my basic retail job sometimes we have to do overhead announcements for like idk backup cashiers and returns and whatnot. one day, some lady and her kid came up to me at register and while checking out the mom was like "oh did you do the announcement earlier?" And when I said yes she explained her kid (a little girl idk maybe 5-10 years old idk how kids work) heard my voice on the intercom and said very confidently to her mother that my voice sounded like I was a nice person and therefore I must be pretty and upon seeing me at register it confirmed her assumption and the little girl said I was the best and it made my day. ngl I still think abt it, kids can be so sweet man. (second place answer goes to the time a makeup student said I had perfect freckles and thought they were drawn on only for me to admit that they are real)
This director-level employee left the company that I work at and when we were saying our goodbyes she said i was so talented and amazing to work with. That or once these older college girls said i looked like a young mick jagger i think that was a compliment and not a jab
My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
