Is Fashion Really That Important?

Fashion plays a big role in your daily life... I don't think so

Everywhere you go, there are hundreds of clothing lines like H&M, Mango, Calvin Klein, American Eagles, Gap,... and to promote their new clothing lines each seasons, there are models who are popular on the internet wearing those new clothes to spread out the words how fashionable it is to wear outside, showing off your curves or guns and how up to date you are. For me, I don’t really give a damn.

For years, I have been comfortable wearing hoodies around the house, when I go shopping, meeting up with friends, school, housework, heavy duty work,... you name it, I’ve done everything while wearing hoodies. They are comfortable to wear, they have the necessary pockets for me to put my necessary things only. I wear jeans with them time to time to, I found it simple yet versatile. But those days were back in highschool, I’m a college student now so my fashion changed, not drastically enough to cause attention but enough for me to notice myself.

Instead of wearing hoodies all the time, I started to wear long sleeves shirt, but I do roll the sleeves up to show off my tattoos. Many people say that I have no taste in clothes, a very backward person. I don’t care what they have to say about me, I wear clothes for one reason only, to hide my private place so I wouldn’t embarrass myself in the public, but also, the clothes I have comfort me, they are easy to wear, easy to wash, and easy to love. They are the part of my life that I chose to participate in.

So in the end, wear what you want, as long as it feels right for you, then you have found the real you. Don’t let anyone judge your judgement, follow your instinct and be who you are. Your true nature.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
