SEPET

That's the title of my all-time favourite love story, but it also turned out to be a horrific experience.

One fine morning, I woke up to find my eyes swollen. Oedema of the eye maybe? And then I looked into the mirror, only to find that I became SEPET!

Overnight.

Just like that.

S-E-P-E-T


Not that kind where the crease of the double eyelid is rather crumpled and can't fold properly, and also not that kind where triple or quadruple creases appear.


Blink.

Still the same.

Blink Blink.

No difference.

BLINK! BLINK! BLINK!


This was a full-blown episode of sepet-ness.

I've always had this paranoia that dysfunctional double eyelids due to whatever activities the night before may lead to a PERMANENT loss of the crease.

Before anyone brushes me off as a paranoid chicken little, I have evidence in the form of first-hand observation. My brother.

For about 13 years of his life, he had double eyelids.

Then one fine morning, he woke up to a crumpled crease on his left eye. The crease had split halfway, so that one half of the crease could not join up with the other half, resulting in a crumpled fold.

Now this happens quite often, and the crumpled crease is supposed to even itself out as the day progresses. And so I was totally unprepared when his double eyelid just disappeared!!!

Poooof!


Now you see, now you don't.

And so my brother has one eye slightly smaller than the other ever since that fateful day.


So you see, my paranoia is very well justified.

Anyway, back to my story.


I wasn't hit by a panic attack. Which is rather odd come to think of it, I guess I didn't really care cos my bro's episode seemed such a long time ago, and also cos I was feeling really crappy so it was just another wonderful thing to happen to my wonderful life.

I looked weird, so much so that I couldn't recognise my eye. Haha.



I remained completely sepet that morning.
Small slight creases appeared at opposite ends in the afternoon. But they were miles apart and so couldn't join up.
Next morning the creases elongated, but one was higher than the other, and so they still couldn't merge.

And finally at night, under the twinkling starlight(shimmering eyeshadow lar), they met.

And lived happily ever after.....


~THE END~


I hope fairytale endings last forever... Am keeping my fingers crossed.


I like sepet, I think small eyes are cute. But not on myself.. it just looks WRONG.
And my field of vision was somewhat diminished too during those 2 days. Seriously.



ps: would dearly love to post pics of my sepet eye, but it doesn't seem to work.... will try again next time.

ps2: posted pics already!
