I am my own person.
I am a savage at heart.
Sometimes it’s hard for me to dress the part.
Why? Because society expects me to look a certain way.
My hair must always be tamed.
My outfits have to match.
But what if I don’t want them too?
Some say girls aren’t pretty unless they wear makeup
Why? Because society expects the world to look a certain way.
I am daring to walk out of the house with a fro and some weird clothing.
Who will look at me strange?
Suzy? Brittany or Joe?
I’ve been daring to dress apart and be myself.
Let’s talk about the weight. That topic is so heavy.
The word fat is often used too many times.
What weight are we all really supposed to be?
“120? 260? Or 100? The world is uneven and so are we.
No one is the same so let’s be strange for a while.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
