In college I have noticed the pressure to act nonchalant and be perceived by all your peers as the cool guy. This article is a call to action to myself and anyone struggling with the same thing to stop caring how you are perceived and just start being yourself.
Stop being so nonchalant. Don’t act like you’re too cool for something to mess with you. Stop trying not to put in effort because it might make you look like you care. Stop thinking you’re too cool to do something someone else might find cringy, but you secretly want to do.
Just some scattered thoughts about how truly living means you must be willing to be hurt.
I’m scared to meet you ‘cause then I might know you/ And then once I know you, I might fall in love/ Once I’m in love, then my heart is wide open/ For you to walk in, drop a bomb, blow it up/ So why love anything, anything, anything at all?/ Why love anything at all?/ If the higher I fly is the further I fall/ Then why love anything at all?/
