When I made faces at my sisters, my parents always reminded me that if I did that too much my face would stay that way!! I was horrified, but then I thought of a genius idea. I always wanted eyes that would turn upwards at the end, so I stayed in front of the mirror, holding my eyes that way, for almost an hour. No, it didn't work.
