Does clothing shape who I am? In a way, I suppose, it does. What you wear could have words that express your views on things, or perhaps show what colours you like, or if you're a stuck up fashonista who cares for nothing but clothes.
For example, I have a bajilion shirts that say things like "Stay Green" and "Peace", and, as my friends will agree, I am truly a little hippie. I spaz at my brother a lot, because he doesn't seem to care that much. I participate in Earth Day, recycle, and try to conserve energy by doing little things around the house. I get mad at my mom when she turns on lamps when the ceiling light is on, and vice versa. Plus, I'm being a vampire hippie for Halloween
T.D.A.F.U. (this doesn't apply for uniform).
But, then again, in some parts of the world it isn't fair to apply that. Like in some of Africa they just have dirty rags to cover themselves. They can't really express themselves through clothes when they barely have any at all to begin with. The boys could have to wear their sisters old pink clothes (shudder) even if they were the toughest, meanest, strongest guys in their grade. How much would that suck?
So, I guess, in a way, the answer to our weekly question is both yes and no. For some people, the answer can be obvious. But for others, you have to delve past their outer layer to discover who they really, truly are.
