Day 187: 5 Minute Freewrite: Tuesday - Prompt: nail

Nails are important covering parts of our fingers to prevent dirt goes directly to our system. I remember the time when I was grade 1, our teacher inspect our hands and see if our nails are clean, otherwise, you will stay outside the room until cleaning is done. Nails should be kept clean all the time. In hospitals, nails can be used to indicate diseases or ailment. That is why, sometimes they require you to erase your nail polish.

Aside from its use as a protection, disease indicator, it is also used for scratching itch in our body. I think I'm getting wild and restless if I don't have nails to scratch the itch. Are you feeling the same too?

Nails have different shapes and sizes? If you have small nails and you go to the parlor for manicure or pedicure, you will pay the same charge as with the others who have bigger nails. Isn't it fair? I don't think so.

I saw an article, it says that nails shape relates to your personality traits.

1. Vertically long: You’re a mild-tempered romanticist
2. Broad sideways: You’re a short-tempered theorist
3. Rounded or egg-shaped: You’re a laid-back pacifist
4. Squarish: You’re serious and hard-headed
5. Triangular or inverted triangle: You’re the sensitive genius
6. Almond-shaped: You’re faithful and honest
7. Sword-shaped: You’re the ambitious idealist

So, where do you belong? Well, if you don't like the personal trait, better ask your manicurist to reshape it. :)
