Lawls of Life

When you wear a big, baggy, flowery sweater to school you have to be prepared to get some strange looks. When you do, take it as a "omgee i love her sweater" look instead of whatever it may be. And from experience (*cough TODAY *cough) it kinda boosts your confidence if you're noticed. On that note, today I wore a sweater from my mom's closet, black skinny jeans, my friend's button up jean shirt, and my favorite boots. Today was also the day that I was laughed at by an entire class but the one thing that made it tolerable was the fact that I was laughing at myself as well. I think sometimes people take themselves so seriously that they are offended by every little comment, no matter how harmless that comment is. It's nice to be able to take a breath and just relax, allowing yourself to not freak out every time someone looks at you funny. No one's perfect right? Not even the person staring at your sweater like its on fire is perfect, so don't take offense. A part of life is about learning to laugh at yourself and not taking yourself too seriously. After all you get a certain amount of satisfaction knowing that you made 25 people laugh for a long period of time. In the end you won't be remembered as the girl who embarrassed herself. You'll be remembered as the girl who made everyone laugh. The same lil memo applies to your clothing choices. I'm sure many people think I have a weird fashion sense, and that's why I wear it and not them, but in the end I'll probably be remembered as that girl who always wore THOSE outfits. And whether the emphasize is good or bad, well we will have to wait and see. xoxo Paloma.
