rockerchick,
The clothes don't make the person.
Take for instance: Meatloaf, Liberaci, The Knack, Bill Haley and the Comets or even Elton John. The list goes on and on. To see any of these and then to put them to their music just wouldn't match up.
Be yourself. Some will love you and some will hate you. That's life.
If you change to make others happy then you'll spend the rest of your life changing, cause it's impossible to please everyone. For instance: I like liver and the very smell of it will make my wife puke. My wife likes maccaroni salad and I don't.
Changing will only make you loose sight of who you are. We all change with time, but don't change just to fit in with a group.
Some people are born adults and others never grow up. We all make choices in our life, some good some bad, but choices all the same. What ever you do, before you do it, think about it first.
To meet me you'd never guess my age. To some I'm older and to some I'm younger. Points of view are different. Don't be in a rush to grow up. Injoy everything that comes with being a kid.
If you're not happy with what you have...
Then you'll never be happy with what you get...
