Speaking exercise

Personally I really care about someone’s appearance because when i see the person for the first time i can know about his or her behavior or personality or lifestyle from their dressing / fashion sense. It’s ok but if your skin is a little bit dirty it means you never care about yourself. If some people really care about themselves their personality is better than other people.

My social circle is very small and among these persons I think my best friend is the most beautiful lady. Her eyes are a little bit different with other people. Her eyes are not very big but very shiny. We are class mates in high school so we have known each other for 15 years. Her forehead is very high and her nose bridge is also very high and she has a cute bunny teeth. She’s not very sexy but a little bit gorgeous. She’s not very tall but he body is very balanced.
