Doing Things My Parents Would Not Approve Of

In This Article:

As someone who grew up in a pretty free opinion household, there are some things that my parents would not approve of if I did them. They always give me the opportunity of expressing myself with my clothing and other things.BUT not with certain things they find “rebellious".

Tattoos

Pinterest

My parents never liked the idea of people getting tattoos and having their whole body covered with them, but in my opinion, I think it's a beautiful way you can express yourself by creating art on your skin and that are meaningful to you. I already in the process to scheduled my appointment to get my first tattoo and my parents won't stop me from doing it.

Piercings

Me with my nose ring

My parents consider that people who pierced their body are drug addicts and have nothing beneficial to bring to this world. I find it as something aesthetically pleasing like any other piece of jewelry. I currently have a nose ring/hoop and I love it! , my parents totally freaked when they saw it and completely disapproved, but with the time they don't even notice it anymore lol.

Hair Dye

Garnier

I think that dying your hair is a form of expressing how you feel and it's a good life-changing experience, my parents on the other hand think it's something that only ridiculous people do , little do they know I'm dying my hair today, so let's see how that goes.

Make up

Debate

MAKEUP IS FOR GIRLS! , something my parents always said when they saw me watching tutorials on makeup or simply watching a James Charles or Jeffree Star vídeo. I bought my first ever palette second semester of my freshmen year of college and I totally love it! , but that's a secret I'll never tell.

And so goes on the list of many things I'm not allowed to do, yet I'm doing. Never feel deprived of expressing yourself, you are unique and Fabulous and nobody can say otherwise. You make your own path.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
