Good job, all!<BR/><BR/>e-kvetcher- you're probably right. But it's annoying when you find that even those traits that you flatter yourself are unique aren't really all that much so.<BR/><BR/>lv- well, yes, every snowflake is unique too, but that doesn't mean that they all don't look really, really similar. I love to think that I'm secretly terribly unique, but it's hard not to doubt it.<BR/><BR/>hnc- I know! and that's why I hate the idea that I might be one of that stupidest type of all- the type that obsesses with pretending that it's not a type.<BR/><BR/>m.r- well, that's rather it- what does one do when they wake up and realize that they fit into the massive conglomerate just as much as all those identical people that you like to pretend you're not.<BR/><BR/>miri- she could try;)<BR/>but anyway, you may be right, but the difference is in details, not in substance. Or maybe it's in both. I don't know...I was just feelng boring and blase.

You really aspire to be *normal*?? <BR/><BR/>OK, so I finally learned the value of having friends, i.e., fitting into a small group. I'm still a little awed by this wonderful new feeling. {sits with slightly opened mouth, too spaced to break into the necessary song} Yeah, it is nice to find a couple of people with whom you [realize that you] have a good deal in common. <BR/><BR/>But to want to fit into a conglomerate? Icky icky icky pa-ting! Even the mere acceptance of conglomeration deserves a passionate redition of "Rage, Rage Against..."M.R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01871988896906196843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14028500.post-9479711906364183732007-03-06T16:24:00.000-06:002007-03-06T16:24:00.000-06:00its called "adolescent ego-centrism: the personal ...its called "adolescent ego-centrism: the personal fable".<BR/><BR/>:-)Looking Forwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04876831969877780546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14028500.post-30449065252220025792007-03-06T16:03:00.000-06:002007-03-06T16:03:00.000-06:00am I the only one it the world who things that bei...am I the only one it the world who things that being unique is over rated, stupid and an absolute fantasy?<BR/><BR/>at my school they say that they always have the same times. They have this type, they have that type and when one leaves another takes his place. I remember when I went to do observations at schools there was one kid at my school who was, evidently, almost just like I was. Same attitude everything.<BR/><BR/>People aren't unique. you may not fit the regular mold, but you do generaly fit some mold. I remember in highschool giggling to my self as I saw all these kids, one exactly like the other who where tying to be "unique". It's really funny almost if it wheren't so sad.Looking Forwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04876831969877780546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14028500.post-80187475360770107732007-03-06T11:16:00.000-06:002007-03-06T11:16:00.000-06:00Although whatever you do you will have some simila...Although whatever you do you will have some similarity to someone else on this vast planet, still, like fingerprints, no two people are exactly the same.
