Imagine having a matte black Range Rover, an amazing wardrobe, worldwide fame and being only 17 years old. Well, Kylie can. I follow her social media through Twitter, Instagram, and recently, Snapchat. Her extended family, the Kardashians, have kept me entertained with their shenanigans and television show, and I have, in a way, grown up with Kylie. We are remotely in the same age range, but live completely different lifestyles.
I come from an average home in a large suburban area in the Midwest. She comes from a mansion with a family that's worth multi-millions—so, our possessions would be quite different.
After following her on Instagram for so long, I have become accustomed with her ever-changing look and lifestyle. I am incredibly jealous that being such a young teenager she is able to travel the world and go to numerous musical festivals, but then I am reminded again that she is just another teen celebrity. I feel I have become more hesitant of my posts on my Instagram because I want my edits to look similar to hers, as well as the captions. I am not a fan girl completely, but I do try to embody her in some way.
She posted a few days ago a picture of herself with blue hair en route to the famous music festival Coachella, and I truly thought about what I would look like with that type of hairstyle. As a college student, I do not believe that I should be THAT obsessed with a celebrity to possibly change my hair to look like hers.
Recently, I followed her on Snapchat, and I am not 100 percent sure if I can keep following her. She shows us the many amazing parts of her life such as being in Kim Kardashian's closet, being with Kendall and being with her other celebrity friends. On my Snapchat story I share ugly selfies and pics of me at a party so my Snapchat friends know that I leave my dorm sometimes. I find it interesting that being a celebrity she is able to Snapchat her daily life and share the sort of, 'uncensored' part of being a Jenner.
I admire Kylie in many ways because of the way that she has changed throughout the years, whether it be that she over-lines her lips or got plastic surgery, the world could possibly never know.
But, she also lives out every teenager's dream, and for that, I will always be incredibly jealous of her.
