All That Bad??
Ultimately, being an Outcast is the best thing in the world. To me being an Outcast means not trying to fit the status quo. You aren't trying to be something you aren't. For example, me. I am a Junior in high school and I don't fit in with any specific group. Well, I guess the Outcast's may count as a group. I don't wear makeup all the time and yes, it hurts when people tell me to go and put some on, but, honestly I think natural beauty is best. Maybe a little eye liner every once in a while. I don't have all the fancy American Eagle or whatever the fashions are now. I have clothes from Walmart. I don't wear expensive jewelry, I hardly wear any at all. I don't fix my hair all the time. I don't listen to Lil Wayne or 2 Chainz. Does that make me a horrible person? Is that why I don't fit in? Honestly, I don't want to fit in. I like being different, whether it's my style or my funky hair colors. I am the way I am. I just want to ask...Is being an Outcast really that bad?
