A Writer's Quirk: Let's just be

It's amazing what people will do when they think no one's watching. Have you ever stopped and watched what people do inside their cars while driving? Some pick their noses (a very disgusting habbit I might add), others start dancing along and singing to the music their listening to, the women tend to put their makeup on and make all those funny faces you make while applying the face paint, some start simulating the instruments they hear....the list goes on and on. I mean really, PEOPLE ARE WATCHING!!! So what gives these individuals that sense of security that makes them feel as if no one's watching? The air conditioner. Yes, amazing but true. But more importantly than that, why do we, as human beings react one way when we're alone and another when we're in company? Why do we change our personalities to fit society? so, ok...maybe there are some habbits that shouldn't be exposed to the general public (the nose picking thing is one of them), but what about all the rest? Why not sing along and dance when people are watching? Why not play the imaginary guitar in front of a crowd? What do you care what people think?! They're watching you anyways when you drive and start doing all those things, but in that moment you just don't care. So here's what I propose: Let's start acting crazy all over. Let's break out of the mold. Let's dance and sing and shout, let's just be ourselves and see what can come out of it. Wouldn't you like to meet a real, crazy, fun, interesting person? I know I would! There are some people that already do it. The common definition or term used to describe them is "bohemians". Personally, I wish I were more like them. They have originality and style all over. They live and let live. So let's be that person, let's be interesting and fun. It's not such an impossible task....Is it?

Yes I agree.. the air conditioner and it's magic, it's a mystery I tell ya!...I'm one to start feeling those contagious beats in front of the mirror in my room when the air conditioner is on! and don't even get me started on the singing thing(but i'm good at it so it doesn't matter much ;) =P). The hell I concur! Let’s all do the bohemian thing!! ..In my case well mostly the attitude, personally I believe that blue colored hair doesn't suit me.
