Don't Judge Me
"I’m inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has opened up many curious natures to me..
Most of the confidences were unsought —
frequently I have feigned sleep, preoccupation,
or a hostile levity
when I realized by some unmistakable sign that an intimate revelation was quivering on the horizon;
for the intimate revelations of young men...
are usually plagiaristic and marred by obvious suppressions.
Reserving judgments is a matter of infinite hope.
I am still a little afraid of missing something...
as my father
snobbishly suggested, and I snobbishly repeat, a sense of the fundamental decencies is parcelled out unequally at birth."(The Great Gatsby, page 1)

Society kills!
During our lives we are told that we have to look a certain way to feel accepted, but that is so wrong! That is society. Society has these 'rules' that people should follow, you know like the perfect woman marrying the perfect man and having perfect beautiful children! but that is not true at all! Now a days people are starting to speak up, they want to wear what ever they want to wear, they don't want to be told that having pink hair is not going to get them anywhere in life, but how does society know that? No. People also want to be with who ever they want to be, for example society doesn't accept gay marriages That is wrong, personally i think human beings have every right to be with who ever they want to be with! But society has brain washed people into believing stereotypical things. So let me tell you something; do what you want to do, be with who ever you want to be, do not let society tell what is right and what is wrong. Because society is wrong it kills peoples personalities and we don't want that, do we?

Do Looks Really Matter?
I think every ones look can be very deceptive. You never know how a person acts or is just by they way they look. Just like this kid i know, or i have seen around. He looked like a really nice guy a very smart one at that! But that all changed the second i met him. He was no longer that cool looking kid! He was the biggest jerk i have ever met. UGHH i know! It was just like my mom and grandma told me 'Apariencias Enganan' which translates to 'Looks can fool you'. I personally think that every one cares about their appearance, but sometimes we care a little too much don't you think?. When ever it starts taking you more than 2 hours to get ready that's when we start caring a little too much. If you do take that long, I don't blame you I do this myself but wouldn't you just like to walk outside and not care how you look? I know I would. I mean sometimes what we value in our life is small because we are so caught up with the way we look. This starts getting to our heads that eventually we would want to marry some one with a lot of money and gorgeous looks. Personally i wouldn't mind the looks but i don't need someone with money to make me happy. This may vary from person to person but this is what 'looks' can do to you. Honestly they do matter but it depends on how much they matter to you.
