“This was my first really big step toward self-degradation”

My First Conk

I chose this quote, because I think it is really important that people expecially kids know the being yourself is the most important thing. I think the thesis is trying to tell people that a lot of people have felt this same way and have been in a similar situation, but the writer also showed that he learned a lot from this, that he figured out what was more important. After reading this essay, it made me flash back to middle school and high school, that a lot of my friends and even I went through a similiar stage, i like how the writer also makes everyone feel like it happens to everyone even the people you’d least expect.

I agree, many people go through that feeling of wanting to fit in and be the “same”. You always want something you can’t have. Like I have always had straight hair that doesn’t curl…I would love curly hair! :)

I also think that it is very important for kids to realize that just be who you are and you can do great things

I know exactly what you are trying to tell your reader. I think almost everyone wants to feel loved and “Fit In”
I defiantly have. Nice work, It was a joy to read.

I chose the same quote. I think many people have been through the same thing and they usually figure out what is more important to them. It’s really important to just be yourself and not change so you are like by more people or things like that.

I agree that you should just be able to be yourself. You shouldn’t have to change who you are just to fit in

thats right, people always are trying to fit in. i think people make friends that you relate most with. Like i love hockey, so most of my friends sit around and watch the wild play….
