For this assignment researching our "phobias" i toyed around with many ideas. In general, I think i am a pretty relaxed girl - i enjoy going out with my friends, spending time at home and generally spending time and doing things that make me feel comfortable. Obviously. Thats generally what most young people do. When it came to sitting down with my process book and listing what are my "hot potatoes" i discovered that i have many more than i thought. and maybe im not to relaxed as i thought.
through this process work i have decided to become a PLAIN JANE. in my eyes (and through my friends' impressions of me) i like to stand out in some way. i generally like to look nice, i am someone who doesn't like to leave the house with no make-up and i have discovered that i do take a lot of time deciding how to present myself each day. even in the college environment, or any social space for that matter i like to seem involved and i like to engage with people. i note that as a strong personality trait of mine.
so here are some definitions of what it takes to be a plain jane....
"a drab, unattractive, and generally uninteresting girl or woman" - www.dictionary.com
"not fancy or glamorous : ORDINARY" - www.merriam-webster.com
"Plain Jane describes a girl that is plain, ordinary, and not specially memorable or special" - www.yourdictionary.com
Sounds thrilling. A little disgusted there is actually a category or a group in our society called that...so let's see how the next ten days work out...!
