when's the last time you were trying to be yourself and not trying to make everyone like you or trying to make someone jealous/impressed/etc? i mean really, i hear so much gossip and its like, do people really have nothing better to do in life? i think thats why its considered so terrible when i'd just rather stay home sometimes. society has made it seem like if ur not included in someone else's business, then u have no business of ur own. ya, its cool to go out and have fun...but why is it bad when u have enough security and self esteem that u can just say, ya know what i dont feel like going out. it seems to me that a lot of people feel the need to surround themselves with a lot of people in order to get attention. ya, its great getting attention, trust me i crave the spot light myself sometimes...but jesus, why are people so insecure about themselves that they cant be alone for a night? i just think its really pathetic when people have to constantly send out a message telling everyone, ya, i'm popular, or ya, i have a cool bf/gf, or ya, so and so wants to hook up with me. i mean, isnt this really just trying to affirm to urself that ur wanting in some way? if u can convice ur peers that ur wanted, is that what locks that fact into place? i just think its sad that so much time is wasted in trying to make others jealous of who u talk to or who ur dating or who u could hook up with. i mean really guys, i'd be more impressed if u could turn ur cell phone off for a week and not go out because then i'd know ur secure enough about urself to do that. if u think i'm talking about u, then ur probably right. i think this applies to everyone, including myself.
