In Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet are doomed from the start, and the audience is completely aware of this from the prologue. “From forth the fatal loins of these two foes a pair of star-crossed lovers take their life.” Romeo has an impulsive disposition, which guides his actions throughout the play and eventually leads to him take his own life.…
None of the schools I have attended had a uniform requirement and many students dressed in ways I found inappropriate. The private school I attended had a strict dress code but public school teachers often overlook the violation of dress code. School uniforms bring a more formal look; giving the school a better reputation and creating a sense of belonging among the students. My style is very diverse and reveals my general interests, whether it be nerdy shirts, girly clothing or vintage outfits from the 40's. Personally, I have always been comfortable in my clothing whether I fit in with others or not. In fact, I always prefer to look different and I have more than enough clothing to express my unique style. I do, however, have friends that always feel under pressure to wear the right clothing and often borrow clothes from me. It is reasons such as these why all schools should require uniforms. School uniforms may be the prominent aspect of our society’s road to success in educating its…
What this site also said was that dressing nice isn 't always buying the most expensive clothing. They said that one would want to dress comfortably and that one shouldn 't expect that they need to look like the CEO of the company. Basically all we need to do when it comes to dress is make sure that our clothes are pressed and cleaned appropriately.…
In the novel The Things They Carried, by Tim O'Brien, soldiers would do just about anything to stay sane and alive during the Vietnam War. Some men would have carried things with them during the war. These same men would carry things to remind them of home, others would carry an item to help them feel better during their hardships. What these men carried was something to hold onto, moreover not an item but of a memory or a dream. Soldiers would do just about anything to stay sane and alive during the Vietnam War. I also have items that I would feel wrong without; these items are symbols of me.…
As I arrive at school, I hear girls behind me say, “Do you see what she is wearing, ew?” Everyday, I am bullied because of my attire. Because of the low income in my family, I do not always wear the most “stylish” outfits. Clothing type is one of the leading causes of bullying. Dorothy Espelage, a professor of educational psychology at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, says she has seen an increase in "bullying related to clothes.” I believe schools need to impose school uniforms. If school uniforms were enforced, equality would be promoted to all students. Also, the uniforms would not be distracting or flashy.…

I carry things that are a necessity for school. For example, I carry a backpack, and inside I have two pencils, a pen, and papers. One of the pencils that I carry with me I have like an emotional attachment to it because i have had it for three years and I feel like it’s my lucky pencil and must carry it everyday. Other things I carry in my backpack is Sunscreen, books, and a binder.

If a person is wearing old smelly clothes then people might think he is not a very clean person and that he may not have much money to buy all the new clothes. Now if you are wearing the newest Polo that just came out, then you have money and people will think you are a clean well-dressed person. That clothes you wear will certainly have an impact on how people look at you.…
When asked about uniforms, most students will agree that they hate the idea of wearing uniforms and having it as a dress code. When I was in junior high, I was fortunate enough to experience a both non-uniform and uniform public school; in the perspective of a 13 year old girl, I hated the idea of wearing a uniform during my time in a uniform school. I thought that I wanted to express myself through my clothes, yet I soon realized I was wrong. I became more aware about uniforms and why we had to wear it after my experience at a non-uniform public school. After a few years after, I went back to a uniform school and after the experience in a non- uniform school it made me appreciate having to wear a uniform.…
Letting Kids be Kids Parents should let their kids be who they really are. Not worry about apperences, hair style, clothing. I believe kids should be who they want to be and not what they see everyone else doing, because it’s cool, or because popular kids are doing it. I am a very strong believer in letting kids dress and do what they want to their own bodies. Well to a point.…
Have you thought about how your family, your home, music and even television have influenced you on the way you behave or even dress? While I was in middle school it was mandatory for all students to wear uniform and I loved it, i felt welcome into the school and since every one had to wear the same thing no one was bullied and i became a straight A student sice i would only focuse in school. Then high school came along and I hated being there, since i couldnt affford all the nice clothes or shoes people had, i was bullied and the only thing that keep me motivated into going to school was that both my parents didnt finish high school and had to drop out to take care of their family. When i was bullied i would just think to myself and say i know that at the end of the day i will have the better laugh, and thats what happened. Most of the schools that require uniforms have a structure or a certain color that all students have to wear, but the one that dont require uniform uniform, majority of them hav a strict policy on the things they can wear. Now have you thought about what uniform would have done or did to you if you had or did wear uniform?…
What do you do, when you're about to get married to a complete stranger, who lives on the other side of the world? How do you cope with being removed from everything you know, and placed in a completely different culture? Clothes is a story about a woman's life, which is about to be turned upside down. A marriage with a man she barely knows sends her across the ocean to the daunting world of L.A. Clothes os a short story of love, arranged marriage and clothing, with Sumita as the main character. Sumita seems like a very kind, yet naïve young woman. She believes in the American beauty and that everything there is colourful and brilliant. She is quite anxious for her future, and the thought of going across seas to live with complete strangers, but the thought of her husbands shop and her beautiful saris make her take the journey, not that she has much of a choice. Though naïve and sometimes childish, she also has a sense of responsibility, and want to her her husband4. She is anxious of her future, and she's afraid of having to move all the way to America. Even though she is scared, she also seems excited, since she keeps talking about her soon-to-be-husband's shop. She seems very kind and loving in the way she talks to Somesh and the way she wants to help him. Sumita can be described as a round characters, since the definition of this term is a main character, that develops throughout the story. Sumita does exactly this. She changes from being a naïve, young girl with fear of the unknown, to a responsible woman, who is widowed at much too young an age and now leaves to follow her dreams. When Somesh was alive, none of them dared to say a word against his parents, but now Sumita no longer feels related to them. Even though she is mourning over the loss of Somesh, I think she is mostly upset about her loss of the American dream, so she sets off to find it on her own.…
We have always been told that its what`s inside that counts, and "the clothes don’t make the man ", I totally agree with this statement. In today`s world media influence people a lot about their body image, men constantly feel to have a muscular body, and wear new brand clothes. Moreover they encounter muscular and well dressed and modish men as example of their ideal body image. Even women see skinny models with fashionable clothes, makeup, jeweler on, and then try to copy them. People think by doing all this they will be more successful and accepted by society, but they forget that all this artificial stuff could never make a real man with feeling and emotion inside him. Most of the time people get so much distracted by all this artificial stuff that they lose themselves.…
So who is to say I can’t use this information to my advantage and make everybody think that my life is going swimmingly even when i’m are stressed or tired. People use clothes as a front, sort of a protective barrier to the outside world. When you look great you automatically feel great too. So look at fashion as a friend and not as something that is stressful. Most women in particular often find themselves…
Today im fifteen surrounded by the influences of peers.I have a choice to wear what they wear or to choose my clothes based on my likes or dislikes.To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you someone else is the best accomplishment.I want to be myself so i wear what i like.That usually consists of a pair of tracksuit bottoms and a top.I want to be comfortable in what i wear so when i go shopping I look for the fluffiest jumpers and the warmest socks.Girls look at me strangely as they look through the rack of hairbands ,which are apparently meant to be skirts.…
