Im not going to lie life tends to bore me. Where as many are content with the mondain life styles we see today in the western world, I can't help but look past the present in hopes of some type of life that offers more. The fashions, the weekends, the schooling it all bores me. People lack individuality, and any sign of pushing against the grain will be distinguished quickly. I have always hoped for more than the cookie cutter life style we are fed as kids. Don't get me wrong I have nothing against traditional education, and actually enjoy college, I just feel there is more out there than what is taught to you. I want to make a career of my own, I want to work for myself, to do free lance work on my own terms. No, I'm not stubborn, I have no problem with picking up office jobs along the way if necessary, I just feel that there is more than one way to create opportunities for yourself.
Fashion today is all to safe, people are praised for being "hipsters or out there" while looking just the same as everyone else. It's hard to give a lot of credit to people for being "out there" when they are still people pleasing. No one seems to dress for themselves anymore. No one has enough guts to wear things that they themselves don't know how they feel about it. Nothing is homemade or tampered with, people haven't taken out the sewing kit or the paint since the 80's. I have grown tired of not wearing certain things, not because I care what people think, but because I don't want to have to listen to people tell me what I should and shouldn't wear. Even if what someone wears is a little off, isn't it better than everyone wearing the same thing. It shows personality, confidence, and exploration. The best part about clothes is, if it was a bad idea you can always wear something else the next day and everyone will forget.
Another thing that seems to not reach its full potential is the weekends. What is so fun about doing the same thing week after week. Why don't people try new things. Recently I have started to go to random shows. I went to some random girl lead punk band, a band I didn't know a thing about. Why, because I knew that even if the show was a bust, I would still be pushing myself to go out and explore, and I could always have a good laugh if the music was poor. Surprisingly the band of 17-18 year olds surprised me, and It was refreshing getting out and away from the Jud.
