I'm glad that your mother helped you shave your head. I wish I had the strength to do the same thing. Maybe one day I will get there. How many of your friends or other family members know that you have alopecia. Having a support group of people…

I'm sorry you are having a hard time. I agree with Anna the bald look is much easier tohandle than the "patchy" spots of hair. I wish I could tell you it gets easier everyday but it doesn't. I'm glad you have your parents…

Priya said… - Hi Somaaya,
Its gud to be busy. :) I like to be busy myself. Wenever I sit & think there is nothing to do , i get bored & go to sleep..lol.
Yah, I agree with u that v shouldnt care wat people say since v know v r gud enough to do the job v want to do. The only prob. is giving us a chance. These interviewers think that they want a 'perfect' person for the job, as if they r perfect themselves. They forget that they have been throu the same stage wen they were new for the job & how they were given a chance to prove themselves & thats why they r here at this position. They also forget that they got success not due to their looks but their work. I guess its just their egos which develop with their success that they think they r perfect.
I wont give up!!! If i ever get an opportunity , I am gonna try my best to get it! I will not have any complex at all. I will be more confident.
Yah u r rite. There is lot of discrimination everywhere, no matter wat is the reason. People dont want to accept that those who have some kind of prob. can be as intelligent as them. They have lack of education, thats their main drawbak.
Well i take it as their loss if they havent hired me. Coz the Princi likes my work in the school where I am working & she is happy & glad that she hired me. She appreciates my work too. Which is gud.
Hows ur day today?
Take care,
Priya
