Now that we are all out of high school, i think it's time for a change for all of us entering college or starting a new job. What i mean about that is that since we're making a drastic change by going into college, we all (or at least people who agree with me) should change their look. What i mean by that is like switch up ur style, ur hair, whatever, whatever u can do to stand apart and not worry about what other people think, but dont go over borad with it. (that's how i used to think but not anymore.) i change up my wardrobe and hair style to give me the more mature and sophisticated look. So think about it, since we're all pratically adults now...think about it...

Good blog, keep posting and greetings for the 2cents worth practically adult, Lol!
Maturity is a great thing Sis and as You imply so is moderation and proper context.
Peace.

I think you are totally right. I had to come to that understanding a little earlier. Maturity is respected ( The way you present yourself to others really). I dress how I want, but it's the way you communicate that makes people think highly about you. Make sure not to just change your look if thats not all you need to change. You are very beutiful and you look very mature too. I dought that you need to be told, but carry yourself in that way as well.
