abercrombie and bitch

so yeah i'm a little perturbed right now. mostly because people can't seem to grow up past the point of high school. despite their physical body crossing over that pavillion and recieving the diploma their maturity remains cowering in some corner of the gym or perhaps even at the bottom of some forgotten locker.

basically, it's just the fact that people seem to think they are better than other people. grow the fuck up. just because u work at some place where people overpay for mediocre clothing doesn't change the fact that you are still making minimum wage. so that air of glory that seems to overcome people when they talk about their job is a facade empowered by their insecurity and partial ignorance.

don't let superficiality overcome your sense of self. it's so easy to totally lose what made your friends love you and turn into this totally new person that isn't that friendly. you turn into someone jaded into thinking they're living a life of glamor when theyre just another kid who's on the inside scared shitless thinkning people won't like their inner self. so they hide behind fashion magazines and pseudo-beauty products. take off the make up and get rid of the expensive stuff and guess what, i'll still be your friend. i don't understand why that's not enough.

i'm not slamming the institution of fashion, retail stores, or anything like that. my point is just because you work somewhere where it seems like an unspoken requirement to think you're better than everyone else, doesn't mean you have to stoop to that kind of stupidity. live and let live, don't put other people down for meaningless reasons. there's some form of good in everything, why not find it? why not try and compliment each other and see what that does for awhile? ok so i'm being rather idealist, but i am going to try and do that from now on. no more tearing people down. it starts with me i hope.

love to all,
especially you,
