Here begins the rant of all rants. If you don't care, don't read it. If you read it, don't give me shit cause it was your choice. People piss me off.

Popularity, Lemings, Individuality, Conformity, Boys, Priorities ... the rant begins here ...
I know everyone's flawed and you can't be perfect but most girls are just worried about the wrong things and don't know who they are. I know this is a time when we're supposed to be trying stuff and discovering who we are but why does it seem like in a time where we're supposed to become individuals, that so many people are trying to be someone they aren't. It's not about impressing those sexy men any more than it is about impressing those popular girls. I though that was supposed to be over by the time you get to highschool. I thought people would realize that being yourself is much better than trying to be like other girls just to be accepted by them. You don't have to be exactly like someone else to be accepted by them, as I'm sure most girls like a funny friend who is herself and Not just like her.
If you're not worrying about what girls think of you or comparing your body, personality, and style to other girls, you're letting boys rule your life. Sure boys and fun but are you really going to revolve all your plans around them and go out of your way to try to see men that you have crushes on who you don't have a chance with anymore. Are you incapable of getting over him when you know it's done with, or at least find something better to do than constantly talk about him and compare yourself to other girls he likes, trying to figure out what they have that's better than you and putting yourself down?! And what about those girls that do have their man and have completely changed who they are and the way they live. why, when a girl gets a boyfriend, do they get attached and have their lives revolve around him. i'm sure they think they're acting the same with their friends and managing to incorporate their friends and man into their lives but are you incapable of spending time with JUST your friends or do you have to bring your guy into everything you do. Does he have to change your priorities and be the center of your life. Why does he suddenly get to be your best friend, jump in on everything in your life, and be the most important. How can someone honestly think they can suddenly bring their boyfriend into plans with their friend and not think it effects that friend. Sorry that might have been a little direct to people and a brief tangent within a large rant but jesus christ, think about it.
I swear i thought this would all end before we were 16 and i thought people would figure out their priorities to some extent, or at least realize that they dont have to change themselves to be accepted. Maybe I do some of these things i'm ranting about unconsciously sometimes so maybe the people that act this way don't even know about it themselves... but think about it. does this sound like you? cause it sure as hell sounds like a lot of people i know.
I feel like i can't get close to girls anymore because the second i do i start to notice what it is they constantly talk about and how they act around different groups of people. I love all my friends and i wouldn't be friends with them if they weren't nice, funny and awesome but why is it that the second we're with other people, i feel like i'm with a different person.
Why are so many teenagers committing suicide and doing drugs these days? Not because they're fucked up idiots who don't have any hope or faith but because every second they are either comparing themselves or being compared to their peers or icons and wondering why they can't be perfect. Everyone has their flaws and sure we all worry and have some insecurities, but fucking grow up and do something with your lives instead of moping around wishing. If something's really bothering you that much, DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! and do it for u, not for other people. and if you're gonna do something, do what YOU think is best, not what other people are doing.

sorry that was a horribley long rant but i couldve bitched people out or exploded if i didnt get that off my chest. hope i didnt put my problems upon you but honestly if you think this has to do with you, it probably does .. so think about it.
oh ya and a little side note that i still love all my friends but hey ur not perfect, im not perfect; im sure i piss the shit out of you and well, this is why you piss the hell out of me.
