Things that I'd forgotten happen in highschool.

FRUSTRATION BLOG ENTRY

Whoa whoa whoa whoa. Now. I've only been out of the high school scene for like... what. Three months? Right? Right. And I certainly haven't been out of touch with teenagers. Most of my summer was hanging with my friends. But somehow, in those three months I guess I forgot about the fact that people like to show off their body parts that... well... shouldn't be shown. Or maybe it's a newer thing? Maybe I just didn't get the memo that blatantly showing all of your chest and butt area is awesomely cool and fun and gets you millions of friends?
No? There wasn't a memo?
I didn't think so.
Well apparently some people thought there was. And to tell you the truth, I'm sick of it. Now if this is offending you, please. Stop reading. And then you won't have to worry about being mad at me. Because pretty much, this is a rant for me to get my feelings out on paper... er... I mean a computer screen. Anyways, I don't remember seeing this... MUCH of some of the girls and guys last time I saw them in school. (and that's not a good thing). With some people they seemed to have changed over the summer. As in completely.
Now, I'm not saying we all have to go around wearing baggy jeans and sweatshirts all of our lives, with our t- shirts tucked into our pants belted up around our chins. I'm just saying: have a little self esteem here people. I know we all usually wear fashionable clothes and sometimes stuff happens, or that shirt you girls thought was so cute, is just a teeny tiny bit lower than you noticed ( happened to me before!) . Or the guys have their pants lower and baggier because, hey. They don't want to look like nerds. All understandable.
I'm talking about the thinking " hey. lets go out and buy the LOWEST shirt I possibly find. so everybody can see my chest."
HEY! wake up call: I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT. You know what I think when I see that? I think that you have no self esteem so the only way you can get attention is to flaunt yourself at people. Nope. Not cool girls. Not cool at all. I'm not positive ( back me up here boys) but the only attention you can get for yourself is bad attention from unpleasant boys. All the boys around me that I am friends with complain about it. They don't want to see that. I'm pretty sure they'd rather you put something else on, and just be their friend rather than flaunt yourself at them. So stop. Like yourself for who YOU are. Not what you try to look like.
Now I haven't seen this as much as I have the girl thing, but I DON'T want to see guys butts. Sorry! Baggy Jeans: Fine. Lower jeans: Fine. SO baggy and SO low, I have to see a line that I shouldn't ever have to see? Not so fine. In fact, nasty. You're not a plumber. So put it away.
Get a belt. Or just pull up your pants.
Once again. I'm not saying the girls need to wear this:



Gorgeous as it is... and the boys don't have to look like this every school day:
See how unhappy they all are? I don't want you guys to look like this. I just don't want to see your body parts on parade.
Lets keep that at home.
Not at school.
Or at least when I don't have to see it.
