On severall outtings I've realized, that as any human being, we are very quick to judge. We make sudden assumptions on clothing, appearance, knowledge, background, race and especially JOBS. Unbelievable as it sounds, we are intimidated by people who have higher positions in careers and look down upon others with jobs we don't find as important. Customer service or relations with maintenance are supposively low end jobs. We think that janitors in general are suppose to serve us even if we are not their boss. Servers are also put on the spot and people underestimate the hard work and stress put upon them. For those who work at spa's receive odd and rude remarks on what they're qualified to do.
Personally, it's not fair how we act towards each other and people do their best to make ends meet. The jobs we have don't make out who we are and that, i think, is what we forget. Everyone has a job and whether it's viewed as lowly, we should just respect the person because are you going to replace them?

Pretending is always FUN!
In this day and time or era, mostly every person is either trying to fit in with the latest trends or finding their own groove with style. Although that maybe a fantasy for some, why not go the other way and be the total opposite of yourself. This maybe odd and poser-ish, however it is interesting to see how people react to a sudden change.
On a daily basis I tend to dress my best and make sure I look perfect and fashion forward. That would include: fitted clothes, flawless eye catching makeup, and the latest hair styles. The attention I got was positive, yet my everyday look made me appear as stuck up, snobby, intimidating and unapproachable. Then as I slowly altered my appearance by being sloppy in my attire and having a natural face, the reactions i got were completely the opposite. Isuddenly became friendly, timid looking and approachable. For a while it was fun to take on the new persona my new look gave me. Though I might be the new nerd in my group, it's so enlightening to see how appearance matters so much these days.
From what i know, it's always fun being someone your not for a while, just as long as you don't forget yourself in the process. Other than that it's like stepping into someone else's shoes and it does reveal a few answers on why we act towards each other.

Justice OUT the window
One would think that everything that takes part in their every day life is either normal or happens for a reason. Though we may question why it occurred, we'd never expect that some how, some one intended it to happen.
About a year and three months ago, two men where caught in a horrific car accident in a local area of West Vancouver. Out of the two men, the passenger was clearly drunk and the driver was sober and driving his friend home. The other gentleman who crashed into them was sober as well and walked away uninjured. For the two men in the other car, the drunk passenger survived with a few injuries and the driver was in critical condition. Immediately he was rushed to intensive care and fight for his life. He suffered injuries to the left side of his body; his upper body. Due to the severe impact, doctors were unsure if he'd pull through. After four days, a dear son, brother, and friend had passed away.
Up until this day, his family and very close friends find it hard to cope with their loss, especially with the new evidence found about the accident. It appears that his death was fixed and someone planned to end his life. The man who crashed into the car and the other man who was drunk and in the passenger's were very involved in the plot. The reason why is still a mystery and remains unexplained. The death of this young man have left many friends and family in distraught. His best friend was instituted. His family still recovering. Those who were very close to him find it difficult to go on and miss him dearly. The love of his life continues to live and has forgotten him. His memory still lives on but the new evidence haunts those dear to him.
