Which is worse? Being afraid to be different to others and forcing yourself to listen to popular music you don't like and wearing fashionable clothes you don't like, or being afraid to fit in and when you occasionally do like a "mainstream" band or item of clothing, not listening to it or wearing it?
I was talking to a friend the other day and she was talking about how she really needed a headband (I can't remember why).
"I've looked everywhere!" she exclaimed.
At this point another girl suggested SUPRE, to which my friend said "No way, I hate SUPRE".
I thought this was odd and I asked her why she wouldn't go to SUPRE. Turns out it was just a pride issue. Even if SUPRE is the only place she can get what she needs, she won't go in.
I think this sort of thing is even worse then refusing to be different, because it's just so damn pretentious. I have to admit, I think it's something that I sometimes do, subconsciously. I think everyone needs to take a breath and get over themselves.
