I often ask myself, "Why do people pay so much attention to image?" But I have no answer.
A lot of my friends dress in order to be a part of a group; they choose a hairstyle to fit an image. Why do they do that?
Before Rob and I went to public school in Yorkshire we went to an ordinary comprehensive school in London. All the pupils there were labelled and put into groups: they werentaskt just Marys, Johns or Kates, but grungers, goths, preppies or townies. Every new pupil who came had to join one of the groups and got labelled forever. A lot of the names for the groups came from the music people listened to: grunge, rock, punk, or pop music.
If you listened to grunge music, you had to follow the grunger style. Grungers had skateboards, and they wore baggy jeans, with baggy, hooded tops, loose T-shirts and silver or black metal jewellery or chains.
And if you listened to gothic punk, you were labelled a goth, or someone who liked the darker side of things. Goths wore black clothes, and both girls and boys used black and white make-up and dyed their hair black. The teachers didntaskt like them at all.
"They worship Satan and listen to awful music," they used to warn us. But they were wrong; a lot of goths were actually very nice, interesting people.
The gothstask enemies were the townies, or "the children of the street," as they liked to be called. Their uniform included: fake "gold" jewellery, fake Adidas or Nike trousers with white socks and baseball caps. They talked to each other in a "yeah, ahtaskm cool, ahtaskm cool" manner and a lot of them smoked because "ittasks alrightask, innit?"
Rob and I were labelled preppies because we came from a rich family, wore shirts instead of T-shirts, and trousers instead of jeans. Some people were jealous of us, and some people liked us; but I didntaskt want to be labelled. I just wanted to be myself, listen to the music I liked and live my own life.
My father says that ittasks bad when people put a label on you. Very true, but I think ittasks even worse when you put a label on yourself and let it influence your tastes, interests and your lifestyle.
I always try to be myself and hope that other people will respect me for that.
