Corrupted Happiness

I live in a world with many individuals, but could it be that they are really individuals? One I can tell of individuality is through music genres that different people listen to, and this music gave me individuality in my life. Being confused of what to become and what to believe, music guided me through its obscure genre that led to as of now. It took me several years to truly know what I wanted to become and as I developed deeper into it, I could tell that my art was changing with me. Being obsessed with music it might seem like a dramatic description but the frustration of having to explain myself of my love for music, even that brought me joy. To be able to have an aura of personality that is distinguishable, that made me happy to the extent where I plunged myself deeper into my interests. To be different from the world no matter what the others are saying, it did not matter since I know the place where I belong in this world we live on.

Hello Doll Face

Judgment of a person is based on their appearance, and even if that’s not the case, appearance mainly portrays who you are. But many mistake individuality of an appearance with glamorized beauty. Humans are not born to be perfect but to be themselves in the world, but nonetheless they are put under pressure. Scientists and Doctors say that plastic surgery is the turn of the 21st century and a benefit for mankind. The bigger picture is that people started to become addicted to plastic beauty and started to become looking like everyone else. Although everyone knows of this, the addiction continues on and doesn’t that send a message of mediocrity of humans? I too am afraid of being lured into plastic beauty but for the time being, myself being addicted to music- expressing my thoughts through art is clearly enough to send a message to the Barbie Dolls out there. They should love and be addicted to people who love them instead of loving themselves, since what matters is on the inside.

Individually Decapitated

Strangeness attracts people’s eyes; the Japanese have their way of creating a very new, dynamic sub culture that is shown mostly by teens. These new and rising sub cultures drew me in and interested me in wanting to know more about its history and how they came to be. Although they had a strong opinion about their style and themselves, they still respected the others with different point of views and that surprised me. From Japanese cultures to Japanese music, not just from its visuals and sounds but I also started to have the respectful mindset and the willing attitude to learn from my wrongs. Before this I was too young and self centered thinking that I was most important because I had special interests then others. By learning other perspectives, it made me develop with maturity that although there are many people out there with different personalities, they are all individuals that I should respect. The culture manias might look odd but they are more caring then others might think, an appearance isn’t everything.
