Twas a good day
Well... today was expected to be dreadful, but was actually quite enjoyable...
I have no school because of Parent/teacher/student confrences around 2... I just got back from it and...I'm not grounded.
I woke up this morning around 8 when my dad woke me up. He put the phone in my room and called me at 9 and told me to get out of bed and then called again at 10 and told me to get out of bed again. So I did and showered, ate, dressed, conversed with abby, cleaned room and went to meet abby at the best way and got coffee. A little odd but nice how we both picked flowers for eachother and then exchanged them when we met up. Then we strolled on down back to my house and went up to my room and chilled out for a while... i got my ass kicked.
I just finished reading abby's journal imfamous_abby and did some more thinking of my own. Earlier we discussed social groupings - punk, goth, hippy, sxe, preppy, emo - people being so involved with what group they belong and how they must stick to whatever social group they follow to according to beliefs, dress, and music. I find it odd. I mean, my attire usually consist of black and lots of jewelry and studded belts with my chucks... But rarely will you find me listening to "Against Me!" or heavy death jam music. I got the phish, grateful dead, allman brothers and what not "hippie music" But only on few occasions do I look the part. Also, I'm not patriotic -- besides the fact that abby pointed out my "united we stand, together we heal" that I had completely forgotten about... I'm not patriotic at all really--but that doesn't mean I was not effected by the 9/11 attack. I think everyone was hurt by that in one way or another. So in a way... Im not patriotic, but what goes on in this country effects everyone. But people really do need to be realistic about some things... everyone is in their own little clan and has friends outside of it... but for example if your a sxe kid and you cant go out with the person you like only because he/she smokes pot... thats just dumb. As long as there isnt pressure on you, then you shouldnt be bothered by it. People shouldn't go about with labels... I think the only label people need is their own names... their own individual self... So I am not punk, hippie, or emo... I am Lizz... I can look punk, go to a prep school, act hippie or feel emo... but that doesnt put me in a group... I'm still Lizz. Abby is Abby, Lizz is Lizz. People try to be different and put themselves in the "different" group when really its again just trying to fit in... just like in the "average" group. Just be who you want, and don't let people say you arent doing it right. What do they know really? To being yourself there isn't any right or wrong. Don't focus on the actions of other people, but only your own. You can put off the image of being the kick-ass-im-gonna-punch-you-in-the-face-and-cut-you-bitch and come home to your pretty room and snuggle with your teddy bear and write away in your journal. So theres too many sides goin on to label you as just one thing... give it up... you are no one but yourself. and thats whats "cool." ---(((unless you are someone who really needs to wash their own face)))--- ::BA DUM CHHH::
thank you, good day. :)
