Why Wear A Suit?

Why Wear A Suit?
Ask Men

If it isn’t too hot out, I wear a suit or something of that nature to class or just anywhere. I always get the same question: “Why do you always wear a suit?” My answer is always, “Why not?” or “Does it get your attention?” I wear a suit because it’s comfortable, it grabs people’s attention, and I look good in it. That is why every man should wear a suit.

Wearing a suit can be expensive, but it does pay off. Don’t think of it as a one time payment for something you wear every now and then for weddings and funerals. Instead, think of it as an investment. With a suit, you can go to an interview feeling empowered and confident. With a suit, a man can catch the eye of his future wife or husband. A suit isn’t a one time payment. And it doesn’t have to be just the one suit. Your first suit can be from the corner store and still be a part of your professional wardrobe.

For me, a suit is comfortable. In a suit, I feel so much better than I do in jeans and a t -shirt. Some people say a suit isn’t comfortable because of the tucked in shirt and the tie around the neck. But suits are like many other things in life, you get used to it.

A suit, especially in a place where people don’t usually wear suits, catches the eyes of everyone who passes by. I wear a suit because I don’t know who I may run into throughout the day. For all I know, I could be meeting the one person that could help me reach a life goal like a career. Another reason to wear a suit every day is based off an old adage: Dress like you are going to meet the love of your life for the first time that day. Suits are professional, classic, and sophisticated.

The final reason why I wear a suit is because I look good in it. In a suit I feel confident. I feel better in a suit. A suit makes anybody look better. Suits have a natural way to make people look better and feel more confident. That is why you should wear a suit: to feel comfortable, get people’s attention, and look good.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
