Women: Find your identity, be proud of who you are

As I walk from class to class going through my day, I can’t help but notice something and being disturbed about it. In the days of bling, bling, we have several female students that have yet to gain their own identity. It is like a broken record seeing female student after female student wearing the same thing as the next one that I will see. Don’t you get tired of the same old thing?Maybe it is just me, maybe I am seeing things, but every time I turn around I see a young lady with the same top, same skirt not appropriate for the winter season, and the same boots as the girl walking right up behind her. I have even seen some cliques have a theme going with their clothes when they are going to places as relaxed as the Ram Shack. What really gets me are those girls that are in denial by wearing size 2 pants when they are definitely bigger than that.There is nothing wrong with us thick girls, but erase the thought that everything looks good on us. Never lose touch with reality and your real size.Ladies, that is not as cute as you think it appears to be. Don’t be afraid to wear sweat pants every now and then, especially during finals. You can still get a “man” if you don’t wear makeup to class one day. Third and most importantly, you don’t have to have your hair and nails done everyday. If you try keeping your real nails clipped and short, that potential boyfriend might notice. You (and this message especially goes out to the freshmen ladies) might find that you will not always have enough money to get your hair done. Trust me, that is OK. You can still make it to class and do well at the end of the semester. Find your identity and learn to do your own thing sometimes. This will only make you stronger in the end and allow you to really grow. Once you accomplish that, you are on your way to becoming a better person.
