This guy called me trendy today…
It makes me wonder.. AM I trendy?… I work(ed) at one of the most supposedly ‘trendy’ stores in the mall. Not that I bought anything. Well… Except for this one skirt that all the girls made faces at when I tried it on… I don’t know why! I tmakes me look like I have wings coming out of my sides! I’ll take a picture and show you guys… But anyhow.
I know my clothes aren’t trendy… Most of the stuff I wear could only be called trendy in like.. Japan or Thailand. [And even then, it’s Thai BOY style…] My site isn’t really trendy [is it?… I hope not]. My favourite outfit is my tattered old lugz with my super baggy socks jean skirt and any shirt… HOhOo. ^^* Either that or my red and white polka dot boxers with my Hello Kitty shirt hehe.
Maybe I’m so strange that it MAKES me trendy in that trying-to-be-different way. ^_^ You know. Leave me alone so I can be an individual with my friends! … Yeah. Hehe. Of course, I DO get a lot of “do your friends all dress like you?”… And I simply reply “I know NO ONE who dresses like me”..
But of course, trendiness isn’t JUST the way you dress. Its a state of mind. Maybe my state of mind is trendy. I know I’ve caught myself saying shit like “OMG! That’s sooooo cute” at one time or another. At times I emulate the ‘popular’ ish, usually when I feel insecure. Which is about 2 days a month.
Maybe people aren’t really ‘trendy’. Maybe they’re just insecure and need to fit in. Maybe they don’t even like what they do/wear/have. Weird. I never thought about it that way before. To some, it comes so naturally.
