My Outfit & Me

So today, I went to InterVarsity with Wendy and that's a whole subject for conversation itself but anyway, there was a speaker there talking about the future and he talked about how all of our thoughts and decisions--even in the most trivial cases, like what I wore today--are shaped by the people surrounding you. This is how I examined my outfit:

Starting from the bottom:

  • I wore my combat booties because I knew today was going to be a long day and it would involve a lot of walking, so I wore my most comfortable and versatile shoes.
  • I wore my leggings and jeans because I knew today was going to be a cold day and I would be freezing, so I wanted extra insulation for my body.
  • I wore my long-sleeved Element shirt because yesterday was Earth Day and I didn't really celebrate, so... happy belated Earth Day?
  • I wore my beige knit cardigan because that's my go-to comfy sweater and I needed something comfy if I was going to be taking my 103B midterm.
  • I wore my paracord bracelet because I'm trying to make it a daily habit just for the sake of routine. Plus, I hoped it would have brought me luck because I was feeling extremely unready for my midterm. Plus plus, it brightened up my extraordinarily bland outfit.
Most of what I wore was for sensible reasons, taking into consideration the weather and the duration of my day and such. But I also wore stuff on a whim, like for the sake of spirit and happiness.

In conclusion, I would say the way I pick my outfit and who I am are very similar: logical but with its quirks?

Anywho, this isn't my best piece of writing, but I wanted to log this before I forget and if I go back and read this over, I know I'm gonna sound silly and not want to post this, but I think this is important to me, especially since I just had an identity crisis. I want to remember who I was because it affects who I am and who I want to be.

& I'm rambling... G'night. <3
