1. Take a shower...you don't wanna smell.
2. Pick an outfit that will fit in with the latest fashion trends so that you don't make a fool out of yourself.
3. Put on just a little makeup so that you can be at least be a little bit pretty. You don't even recognize yourself and that unbelievable itch that you can't satisfy because you will ruin all the time and effort you put in.
4. Don't forget to style your hair with those elegant curls. You can't let everyone at school see that your hair poofs up like an electrocuted lion naturally.
5. Shove your fat feet into those blood blistering converse that everyone at school is wearing and you CANNOT be the odd one out.
6. You look in the mirror and all you see is a different person. Your itchy clothes that are not at all even close to comfortable and your feet hurt because you want to fit in with the standards that everyone around you has made so that you don't look like the fool. So all you tell yourself to just get through the day is "beauty is pain".
7. Find people you can walk to class with so you don't look like the stuck up outcast. I don't even like these people. I know I shouldn't be hanging out with them. They call me names and push me around but they are the popular kids and what they say goes. So you let them and you don't stick up for yourself cause that makes it worse. So you take every word and comment to heart. Soon enough your self-esteem sinks and you don't think of yourself anymore
8. Your school work: this is the only thing you have control over, the only thing that is somewhat perfect over everything.....but it is not popular to be smart! A's get you nothing but torment!
9. Go home! Finally, after a long day, you get to come home only to have homework for 3 hours. And you are STILL not done!
10. Get ready for bed!
11. Brush your teeth... God for bid they aren't perfectly white.
12. Put on your pajamas and take off your make up
13. Take down your hair to remind yourself of how your hair looks like it was used to mop the floor.
Society has put all these rules and standards on girls that "you have to have perfectly straight white teeth", "to wear makeup", "to act like a slut to get a boyfriend", " to always have long hair", etc.
But is society correct???
NO!
Yeah, everyone wants to fit in!!!! I would love to fit in at school but is it really worth following by all these RIDICULOUS rules?!
I mean, I hate to break it to you but no matter what, there is always going to be something that is not good enough about you to SOMEONE! That is just society these days whether you FOLLOW THE RIDICULOUS RULES OR NOT!
So why not be who you want to be!?!?!
You can wear whatever shoes you want or an outfit that is not within the fashion trends!!!!!!!! Be you..... because YOU are beautiful. I mean let's be real, makeup does not make you beautiful. Yeah, it is sometimes pleasing to look at but if you don't like it, then feel free to NOT wear it! You being skinny or fat does not make you beautiful!!!
You are probably asking..... Then "what makes me beautiful?"
Well, your personality, your loyalty, your compassion, etc. What makes you happy is what's beautiful!!!
You need to be beautiful to yourself in order to really be beautiful!!!!
Please, BE YOU!
