Yesterday was the first day of school once again and I seen one of the most conformist, downright BORING college students I've ever seen. It was a contrast of what it was when I first set foot in the college about 4-5 years ago. When I first set foot in the college, it was basically full of a bunch of gangsta's, sluts, gamers, jocks, and maybe an emo kid here and there. It was pretty creepy and edgy - a lot of the people in the college was pretty left leaning and they were wearing Bob Marley shirts, etc.
By about the 2nd year, there was starting to have cleaner, more conforming looking kids. Brighters colors were cooler and it was cooler to be more conformist and wear plaid shirts if you were a guy, and if you were a girl, it was cool to look like Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift was very popular about 2010 along with guys such as Owl City and Jason Derulo. Owl City was some guy that likes to fool around with Pro Tools and he had made sort of a hit. But you still had leftover jock and emo walking around, but there was sort of a split.
By about this year, there was a major contrast between what I seen when I first got in there and what I seen now. When I first got in, there was a lot of drama and there was a fear of getting into drugs such as marijuana, etc. Now you don't see that much anymore. Of course, you have your cigarette smoking college students but it is good ol' 1950s nicotine; nothing anything that is illegal in most states, which shows these students are law abiding citizens.
But now I have seen these college students now - BORING!! They are very conservative and very conformist. This era of edginess seems like something that was miles away. The era of edginess has been going on since the Clinton Administration and was probably contributed by Slick Willy. Now we are back to the good ol' days of the 1940s and 1950s where college students were the bobby soxers...well, they are YAWN!
But I don't have anything against these students. They are very predictable and that is good. They know what college is for and it is for an education for a career and that's about it, and for the girls to find mates. There are many girls to choose from and they are looking for guys. They seem to all look the same - the girls and the guys, and they seem to just follow the rules and go with the jones. I can see these students are very easy to fit in with - you have to work to not fit in with them.
I think it is pretty easy to find a date with these girls - well, I shouldn't work to hard and go with my business. Since they are pretty conformist so I guess I should follow the rules and I'll be fine.
