Conformity

Hello all you lovely people!

Today, I'd like to talk about conformity. 
For those of you who don't know what this means, Conformity is the act of matching attitudes, beliefs, and behaviours.
So basically it is changing yourself to fit it and be accepted by others. 

I have had a very recent case of this where I have been told that I am wrong for an opinion. (Sorry, to my friends reading this who are involved)
I am going to see One Direction live 138 days (28th september, for those in Perth also going!) for the Take Me Home Tour. 

At school, we were discussing concerts and I brought up that I am going. 
Everyone immediately asked why I would go, if I liked them, and told me they were 'gay' and 'have no good songs'. 
My first reaction was to explain that yes, I like them but aren't a crazy fangirl over them. 
Then, I thought why was I going to defend myself.
I just wanted to fit in with their opinions. (I went on the defend the boys- yay)

You do not need to fit in and be like anyone else.
It isn't going to get you anywhere.
No matter what you want to become, being remembered is how you get there.
Standing out is such a good thing, being a bit quirky and different makes you much more interesting. 

Song- 
Augie Nieto- Five For Fighting. (I love how strange and sweet it is)

My best friend, is weird.
But that is why I love her.

I won't be having set days anymore to post, as school is becoming crazy. 
Follow my twitter, tumblr or my blog (of course) to be notified when I do update.
(Still 1-2 a week, and maybe more..)

Hugs, kisses and best wishes,
-Amber May xxo
