Tiffany, Making a New me
When I was young, I used to be a Tomboy, for my parents were too busy-working to cultivate me into a gentlewoman
. All the day, I was playing with my elder brother like a little wild bird and my laughter could be heard almost everywhere. Sometimes, the activities I took part in were so dangerous that more than once had I hurt myself and left scars on my own body.However, with time passing by, I am no longer that Tomboy who only wanted to play with her dear brother. In fact, I begin feeling like talking to girls at my age. It has been once or twice my brother asked me to go out playing with him and I said"No", then he just stopped and watched me with a strange look before he went away. Maybe it was at that time that I began to have the thought of changing myself.

What a difficult thing it was to change myself. Sometimes, looking at those girls who dress fashionable clothes, wearing beautiful Tiffany silver jewelry necklaces, I also wanted to be part of them so as to enjoy the life as a teenage girl should. But I just couldn't bear the embarrassment which might occur when they saw the once boyish me suddenly changed the style. So every day I went home, troubled by my thoughts, which finally attracted my mother's attention, and she had always been regretted that she didn't have the time to cultivate me into a gentlewoman when I was young.
However, the Tiffany silver jewelry necklace my mother gave me on my 16th birthday made a great change on me. I can still remember how surprised I was when my mother took that necklace out of that light blue box, for I was totally fascinated by that shining necklace, which was of good design and quality. And I can still remember what my mother said to me that day. She told me that if I wanted to change myself, then go ahead. For it is my right to enjoy life to its fullest.
After hearing my mother's words, I finally made up my mind to change myself. For no matter what others may say about me, it is I that am to lead my own life. And if being a new me can make me feel happy, what on earth do other things matter!
