*whistle noise*

" There is less discrimination in children, as they don't feel like they need to fit in, like being skinny and wearing the right thing"

Well I for one can say I think this is complete rubbish and feel relieved to be able to say this isn't a quote from me - sadly its a quote from a girl in my class.

This is the moment, when i realised that actually they aren't the things I feel I need to do. I have no wish to be skinny to fit in, I have a wish to feel comfortable in my own body and to be fit for health reasons - not so I can join the large majority of my year who have you know *whistle noise* and especially not got to the point when "I've just stopped trying not to be pregnant" I was defiantly born into the wrong generation - I like to write letters, I want a record player. I like to spend my free time doing maths and geeking out over Leonardo Da Vinci. I'm not one to go get pissed and get off with a guy, I'm more likely to sit in my room listening to Stories from somewhere or the midnight beast or on bad days the jersey boys - i have been badly influenced.

But you know songs about science, rocketships and pencils now that's a good way to spend time. Playing Pokemon and waking early at the weekend to see the movie, that's the type of person I want to be and love to be.

So where was oh yes, I don't feel as I have to act a certain way to fit in, I think if people just spent less time trying to fit in things would even out and we would get where we need to be so much faster.

Damn I have spent to long writing today, what with this and an English assessment which I dread to think of its results - especially as I now need it to be a b instead of a c.

  1. I'm falling so in love with your blog :) Honestly, I'm not just saying that- you're kind of heart warming :D
    Also, I think there is *more* discrimination amongst children because they can be so cruel and petty; that's sorta what children are supposed to be and the discrimination we encounter at our pre-adult-not-quite-children-any-more age is more of the same from those who have not grown up at all.
