I'm beginning to realize that I thrive on being unique. I can't stand to be or look just like everyone else around me. I guess thats because my concept of "normal" is boring to me. I never want to be "normal." I am comfortable being the odd kid in the middle of the cookie cutter kids. And everyone has quirks, but it seems like mine are very obvious sometimes. haha. I'm not terrible upset about this though. I embrace that I am a nerdy, easily excited, loving, soul searching, slightly rebellious, sweet and weird girl with an attitude sometimes. :)
I rarely buy things because I have things given to me all the time. Like seriously, my dorm room? Carpet, curtains, furniture, rugs, more curtains, bedding, lighting....all given to me. As a result, I'm kind of like a big patchwork quilt, nothing quite matches, but it's all good. I like the fall because I can wear warm clothing (backwards much?).
It does get discouraging sometimes though when people see me as less somehow. I know i'm not the perfect woman, but I don't think i'm all that bad by any means. I hate that feeling of being judged for how I dress or who I hang out with. But I don't associate myself with those people anyway.
Being a free spirit has its down sides, but for the most part, its wonderful.
(Sorry this isn't a very thought-out or poetic post, but if you don't like it, you don't have to read it. ;) )
