"You can tell a lot about a person by what they wear." This quote is an oxymoron in itself. Firstly, it holds a lot of truth. Everyone judges based on first impressions. It's a natural human reaction. For example, some people see someone with tattoos and dark clothing and automatically assume weirdness. It's human nature and a hard habit to escape.
On the other hand, some of the nicest people in the world have the most unorthodox style. It just goes to show you can't judge a book by its cover.
People are so different from what you see on the outside. I often look at people and wonder how they think and what they feel. I want to understand them. There's a certain beauty in the way that we hide our emotions. I love watching a person who is generally introverted open up and let loose. It fascinates me because these people do things you would never expect.
Austin Randolph has been in my large circle of close friends since my freshman year. He used to be the quietest of us all. Over four years, he has slowly opened up. Every day he surprises me with something new that I would never expect kind ol' Austin to say or do. It's quite the experience.
The most integral part of a relationship between to people is comfort. Knowing that you are close enough to someone for them to be carefree is a fantastic feeling. It's what I strive for. When I'm with my friends, I do the craziest things because I know they won't judge. It's the ultimate high.
High school has taught me a lot about life. You can't always get what you want, and you can't make everyone happy. If you can find a good support group of the closest friends, it doesn't matter what else happens. The only thing that matters is that you've got 'em.
