Stop it Weirdo...

 
In life following the social order is something that is viewed as the “right” thing to do. In life some people live to follow the social order and then there are the people who self willingly isolate themselves, choosing not to follow that “right” thing. This is something that is dealt with throughout our whole life whether it’s an adult following the social norm of buying a computer that’s very expensive or a little kid having to sit down for circle time. There is one time where it’s the hardest to make your decision of following social order or not… and that when we are teenagers in high school. At this time we are just finding who we are and where we belong and it doesn’t help that if we do choose to follow the path of individuality we get judged for doing so. It happens especially here at Brien Mcmahon. When someone sees another person not wear the “normal’ clothes they just talk about them behind their back. This just becomes a repeated thing that will always stick with that person that chooses to be different. But can anyone really define normal? According to Merriam-Webster Dictionary normal is defined as according with, constituting, or not deviating from a norm, rule, or principle. Is there really a certain way to act or dress that is classified as normal… or is it more of normal to us as robots of society who can’t see anything that’s different because our hard drive crashes and the only way of fixing the crash is to isolate the person trying to be different. I have to say I have been a person that isolates the person but now I’ve come to realize that life is about making yourself happy no matter what other people may say, so what’s the point of me judging someone and expect not to get judged in return…. That’s what isn’t a part of social order, that is what makes us individuals that should get isolated.
