The Real World

The real world is a slap in the face.

When you walk out the movie theater after watching an amazing movie and your life just seems
boring, you feel like the movie was the Real World, and that your life is the movie.

It is really quite disapointing.

When you are reading a fantasy that you are really into, you just can't stop thinking about how different things would be if we lived in that world.

How boring our world is without our imagination and dreams being the reality.



Every teenager can't wait to get out of the house.

But when they finally do get out of the house, it is a reality shock,
they have to start paying for their own food, clothes, school, gas, car, everything!

And they Have to get a job that pays enough for pay for rent and all the things that they need.

They are all on there own.

They think that they have so much freedom, and that they can party and go out all the time,

But really it doesn't happen like that,

REALITY SLAP





When someone starts drugs, they think, that they are different from everyone else, and they think that what happens to others wont happen to them. (The conciquences of doing drugs)

They think that the get more friends, but really, those people are not there for you, they are just wanting to not be alone.

They don't care about your problems, they don't care about how you are feeling.

All they think about is their own problems and their next high, and how they are going to get the drugs and money to get that high.

Not one person says that they don't regret what they did

They wish that they had never done it in the first place.





When you look at the billboards, and magazines,

You think that somewhere out there in the world, someone looks like what you are looking at.

Skinny, perfect smooth skin, Bright eyes, perfect hair, cute clothes, but really, after the picture is taken, the photoshop it, and make it look even better then what it really is.

It is not real.

Not one person looks like what they show in the media.




Be honest, but don't hurt anyone's feelings.

Be independent, but not a loner.

Be smart, but not a nerd.

Be sexy, but not a slut.

Be skinny, but don't barf up your burger.

Be funny, but not to hide some other deficiency.


How the heck is a girl supposed to "be" anything?

  1. I really like your quote from what I assume is a book. I completely agree and find it kinda cute when girls are switching from one to another in a matter of seconds. Now I just need to find one for guys...
