Whitewashed Pumas

Something that is frustrating me is so symbollic of my problems: my closet is divided. One side fighting against the other, never choosing one. So I must ask you all a question I really need answered: do I look better in brown or black? I can't decide on a personal style, not at all! Should I go with boho or punk? Sometimes I want the first one; other times I want the second one. Either way, what the look stands for is bound not to be completely me, and someone in my family is bound to worry about me (probably more for the latter than the former).

For my entire life my parents (and some ex-best-friends) have contolled what I wore with a tight leash. I've never been able to wear what I've really wanted. It's always solid color this "classic" style that. I hate dressing just like my mother. I hate it! But I don't usually have the money to buy my clothes, so guess who always gets them for me? Ding, ding, ding! My mom and grandma. And this standardized dress thing? It's the last straw. I've snapped. Call me crazy, but this bothers me even more since it's, as I said before, so symbollic of my life.

If I were to write an auto-biography right now, I've been thinking... the title might be something like A Punk in Valedictorian's Clothing because I feel I'm about to burst! All the expectations put on me by all the adults in my life make me feel so strapped down... AGH! If I do this, they worry about me; if I wear that, they flip out. I can't take it anymore! I just want to... to... redo my wardrobe completely. But I have to decide: one or the other. Brown or black, but even I can't decide and couldn't possibly do both. So, could you tell me, brown or black? I've almost resolved it in my mind, but I'd like some outside confirmation and a second opinion before I start my quest in one direction for certain to be sure I'm not making a huge mistake.

This is a spitting image of this entry in a way, and all I did was type in my name. The random quiz got lucky:

You Are The Lovers



You represent ideal love: innocence, trust, exhilaration and joy.

You demonstrate the harmony of opposites, two sides coming together.

At times, you also represent the struggle between what is right and what is tempting.

Control is an issue for you, especially when you don't know your reasons for choosing something.

Your fortune:

You have an important choice you need to make about love, and it will be a difficult choice to make.

You are likely struggling between the love you crave and the love that is right.

In the end, you will choose what you crave, even if it's bad for you.

Because without what you crave, you will feel empty and incomplete.
