This past weekend, I created a t-shirt that revealed many things about my personality. I included weird facts about myself that I rarely tell people. It definitely took courage to walk around school with so many embarrassing facts written across my shirt.
I expected to receive funny looks and maybe some confused comments. To my surprise, people liked my shirt! The neon yellow attracted many viewers. I received compliments and most people asked if they could read it. I do admit that some things were hard to share. Some of the things I wrote on my shirt were a little bit silly. People laughed at quotes such as, "I am an awkward dancer" and "I have a blanket named nosey," and some were surprised when they read things like, "I am at church five days a week" and "I skipped first grade." The shirt exposed many secrets about myself.
Being a transcendentalist for a day was more fun than i expected. I enjoyed being able to reveal my true self through my clothing. Expressing who you truly are is very daring. To have that kind of courage for one day was bearable, but I do not know if I would be brave enough to do something like that every day. I respect transcendentalists and I now realize how hard it must be for them to truly express themselves daily.
