At the party a girl said she’s a blabbermouth because she tells people everything: her friends, family, job. When starts to date she met a guy, just like her: He’s also eager to tell everything, including his cheating, so she said she doesn’t know what to do.

My coworker said she always buys second-hand stuff. Once she tried to take a look at a high-end store, she was intimidated. Look, she never traveled abroad and her friends are mostly from so-called developing countries. She said people need to think beyond developed countries because there are so many people like her who can’t afford expensive stuff, living on cheap, second-hand stuff. 

Follow Suit: A girl said she visited a museum, looked at paintings, with everyday objects, and she wanted to follow suit. When she created her own daily life artworks, her passion let her learn other skills, and now she is taking pictures, feeling black-and- white prints are cool, and she only takes this type of pictures.

Cool Crowd: My friend’s interesting ranges from jewelry, fashion, to food; she said she just wants to join the cool crowd, to see glamorous jewelries, fancy clothes, to eat, drink, talk, social with cool people, pretty girls, and beautiful women.

My neighbor said she likes makeup, which let her start her fashion design; when she found her creation has an extra layer and people appreciate it, she said since she grew up poor, her parents had been problematic, borderline, sometimes absent, she feels that her experience will play a role in her fate.

Irrational Insecurities: A friend said she used to feel she didn’t look the way she should be because she didn’t like her eyes, her nose; after leaving her boyfriend, she worked hard and became independent and now she her irrational insecurities are gone and she feels much better about herself.
