white collar world

How many of you feel out of place in curtain situations? Feel like you have to conform to the ways of others cause you are out numbered? Well thats how I felt when i entered in to high school. I am a country boy born and raised and iam proud of it. But I didn`t always used to be so proud of that.
I went to and graduated from Sheboygan Lutheran High School. Lutheran high is more of a white collar school you can say, and there is nothing wrong with that. The first 2 years of my high school life really helped me to find myself. I was a " blue collar kid in a white collar school." For the first 2 years I tried to fit in and confrom and not stand out. Then the summer after sophmore year I changed. That summer I realized and found the old me, the blue collar me. I cant really pin point what made me change my thinking anywhere from working the farm, hanging with my country friends, meeting a great girl, or other things.
From then on I changed my whole out look on life. I said to myself Iam who Iam and if people don`t like me for me Iam not going to change to just be friends with them, cause then there not really friends with you. I want people to want me for me. Ever since I have found myself I have been so much happier and have had more fun.
I encourage everyone to just be yourself, not to try and change for others. One guy I know said this to me " you make to many friends when you bull shit." For lack of better turns he was right. You shouldn`t have to go about your life wearing a mask. My advice to all is be your self let the focks in hollywood do the acting.
