The Media (Random Blog)

I don't know about you, but I hate the media. They make a lot of people feel bad. The way they show people is unrealistic. I mean, what's happened to the world? Where all we see is girls and guys on magazines looking all "perfect" and trying to pursue you to look all "perfect" too. When I was younger, I didn't mind looking at the magazines because I didn't really catch the ads that were in the magazines. Now that I am older, I see so many ads trying to pursue me to look a certain way or to dress a certain way. The cover of a magazine is the first thing that makes you feel like you should look like the people in the magazine. I usually see a guy that is shirtless with a six pack and on the side of the cover it usually says "Get the secret to abs in six minutes!" Now I hate looking at magazines. When I'm at a store, I do my best to ignore the magazines at the counter, because I know if I look at them, it will only make me feel bad. Today, I am learning to love myself. I am learning to not let the media try to pursue me to not be myself, because being myself is the thing I love to do and I never want that to change.
