Be Yourself!

This is pretty much connected to my bullying post and the you are beautiful post but it's different in its own way. Hope you enjoy.

You know what I really hate? When I see people walking the halls being someone they are not. I hate that! It really annoys me and gets on my nerves that people need to pretend to be something they are not just because they want to "fit in". Makes me sick to my stomach to see that! What is wrong with the real you that you have to change yourself to please others? I'll tell you wants wrong... NOTHINGGGGGGGG! There is NOTHING wrong with the real you! The only thing wrong is that you are trying to be something your not! Ugh horrible! Makes me sick! Bleh!!

Why are you changing yourself to please others? Like no! Just stop no! Be yourself! Gosh! Like seriously no one should tell you to change or make you change into someone you are not! They are most likely trying to make you into a mini them! Ew! No one likes clones! Bleh! {Twins do not count as clones because they have different personalities and may look alike but they are actually different just saying}. Like seriously why would you want another you? {don't link this anyway to twins!} Wouldn't that get annoying?! I think it would be so annoying to have another EXACT me! Gosh I would punch my clone in the face because I would be so annoyed with myself! Like why would you want to be someone else? How is that not uncomfortable! Dressing in a way that's not you, c'mon you have to be uncomfortable! Like c'mon you can't be happy being someone else!

When I was bullied in seventh grade I did change myself so they would stop bullying me. I became someone I was not and I totally {wow haven't said totally since I was telling my mom what someone said on Saved By The Bell that was funny} lost who the real me was. When I moved before my freshmen year of high school, I stopped pretending to be someone I'm not. I had to try and find the real me because I literally didn't know who I was anymore. It took so long to find myself, the true me again. I'm still trying to find the missing pieces. I look back on those years and ask myself "What the **** was I doing and thinking?!" I don't know who that person was, thats my face, that's my voice but that personality and look is not me. I am so upset that I let bullies lead to me changing myself. I seriously am glad that that's the past and now I am being myself. I honestly lost so many friends by trying to be someone I'm not. It was horrible! I still can't believe I did that. I realize now that I should not let people get to me. I am glad I am my own unique self {well that's what my mom says I am lol jk} I honestly missed my real self! I was not happy being someone I'm not! I was bottling everything up and it changed me! And I hated it! That's why I needed to be myself again!

I don't think you should change for anyone but yourself! If you feel like you need a change in your life and get out of the rut your in. Then go get a haircut, go to a spa, go buy yourself some new clothes that you've been wanting for awhile (Don't break the bank though). Just don't change who you are don't change your whole look into something dramatic and not you. You don't need to do that! Your beautiful and wonderful already why do you need to change? I'm confused on why you are changing. It does not make sense to me. Being yourself is the best thing ever! You feel proud of yourself and happy that you are not doing what everyone else is doing or being. If fluffy boots are in style right now, wear them when they are not in style {Fluffy boots will never be out of style they are too amazing to go out of style}. Be yourself! Show people you are not afraid to be yourself! Show them you are proud to be yourself! It's the best thing ever trust me!

Now I'm very lazy and all but trying to be someone else has to be A LOT OF WORK! Actually it is! {No wonder I was tired everyday when I was trying to be someone else}. Why would you want to waste all your energy trying to change yourself when you can easily be yourself and still have time to catch the new glee episode or greys anatomy episode or whatever your favorite show is. Don't waste your energy and money on trying to be someone else when it's just making you unhappy. It makes no sense honestly.

If you are getting bullied because you are being yourself, then that bully is jealous that you are proud to be yourself and they are not! I bet that bully is a whole different person at home! Bullies put on an act! Don't let the bullies pull you off the stage with a hook! Steal the show! Do what makes you happy! Let the bullies fall on their behinds while you get a standing ovation! {ya see what I did there, keeping the whole theater theme going there. No? Oh ok}. Trust me the bullies will get what they deserve! Just don't let them get to you and change you! Don't let what happened to me (for example) happen to you. It's not worth it! Be yourself and you will be happier and get farther in life then pretending to be something your not. It's not worth it.

You don't understand how beautiful, talented, wonderful, and smart your true self is! Your true self is so much better than the clone your trying to be. There is a reason we are all different! We were NOT put on this earth to be a clone! Save it for the movies! No one likes a copycat! Bleh! You, the real you, is the person I would want to be friends with. Not someone who is trying to "fit in". The real you is an incredible person!

Don't pretend to someone else because when you are dating someone, they want to get to know the real you. Maybe who you are pretending to be is someone's perfect match but it's not YOUR perfect match! Let that person get to know the REAL you! Oh oh don't EVER change for a guy ladies and don't EVER change for a girl gentlemen! If they are trying to change you, it's obvious they don't like the real you. And if they don't like the real you, their loss because they real you is wonderful! And they are too stuck up to see that! You are someone's other half, it's easier to find them when your yourself. So BE YOURSELF!

Bottom line is no one likes a clone or copycat! Your just hurting yourself when you change yourself! There is no one you should be but yourself! Trust me just be yourself it's better then a annoying clone of someone else. You are beautiful just the way you are! Listen to Bruno Mars when he sings that! And don't forget: BE YOURSELF, EVERYONE ELSE IS TAKEN! ;)
