Life isn't as simple as we all would like it to be. There's learning how to walk, and learning how to speak, and then we have to go to school to perfect these things, either our speech, which is to be wittier and more intelligent sounding, or our walking, which is to be confident and influenced by our 'class'. They teach us what to do, and what to love, and then they teach us why. And we never question it. Be it school or parents, we never stop and ask; Why in the hell are we doing this? Choices of music and careers in life and influenced by those around us, who bully us into things we might not wish to do, or convince us of the good in doing these things. And rarely have even I asked these questions, or stop to speak my mind, because, when I was little, I didn't have opinions and thoughts, and I let everyone else form me. From Mrs. Stone to Mrs. Flynn, both who seemed to care, but never asked me on which path would I be taking this knowledge, because they all seemed to know. 'I come from a long line of dentists.' It would be safe to assume that you would become a dentist, too, yes?

And I've always hated that word; conformity. I've never been proud of the idea of taking someone else's life and modeling my own after it. But.. I suppose that's the way to be. I want to be a psycologist, by the way. I'm apparently 'good' at it..
