hippies in high school... question 4 u

lolz i wear my feelings

 

Of course I act and look like a hippie at all times. Why? Because I am one. Well actually, the majority of my clothing is band shirts (mostly black metal shirts), and shirts from gigs I've been to. I have an army jacket that I always wear with a big ol' cannabis leaf patch on my shoulder. I don't know how people see me but I think I look fucking awesome and that's all that matters. :cheers2:

 

I've graduated a year ago, and my school made us wear uniforms, except our shoes.. but I still acted the same.. I signed petitions, I spoke my mind if I thought something was wrong... and my shoes were always me. Personally... people don't stop acting like snobs once they get to school.. they will still be snobs.. and the geeks so forth. So why stop being a hippie if that is truely you.

 

Protest stuff and say man a lot

lolll

 

i wear 'hippie clothes' i guess.
im working on getting my school to serve vegitarian foods.
i just basically am who i am.
alot of people label me as a hippie with good and bad connotations.

 

i just graduated, and we had to wear uniforms, the only loop whole i found was shoelaces, which was rainbow, and i managed to get away with flares school pants lol which ended up hiding the shoelaces, but i now think im te only one who has graduated with colour laces
i was a little outspoken, the general image i manaeged to portray of myself was hippie, wh=ith all my headbands, the beads in my hair and all the jewllery.
i was suspended for free speech, which was highly contraversial, with the teachers coming up to me going man no way you deserved that. but it happens....everyone knew me as the hippie, i was the only one too, would be cool with more

 

im a junior and peple constantly are like "Are you a hippie?" and shit like that and like yell "GYPSY!" at me... and im all like umm.. man im a person... i dont knhow to respond to that because i dont know what you think a hippie is.... but i dress pretty much as the story goes and i just cant help it, its what i like. once i had become accustomed to a certain lifestyle the clothing and lingo just kinda rushed in along with it.


and for some reason even though i resist authority . they love me! ?????

 

this is my first year out of high school.. i was the same in school as i was out, as i am here and as i am everywhere. i wore my school uniform sloppy and didn't really put much though into it.. i drew psychedelic patterns or a peace sign on my hand a lot. i wrote messages on every table i sat at. would put up poster about various topics to make people aware. i would never let my friends litter, and if i saw someone i didn't know litter, i would tell them to clean it up (if they didn't i would) ..always stood up for people who were being put down for being them. had quite a few deep conversations with people. would always try to strike a thought in people's mind. say man, dude, smoke pot on the oval.. la di da..

 

stereotypes suck..

It's like...pre-made people.

 

I'm in high school and I'm known as one of the school ''hippies''. I don't enjoy stereotyping myself or anyone else, but that's just who I am. I just dress the way I would at home(which would be dashikis, ponchos, hemp clothing, psychedelic threads, etc.). But saying ''man'' all the time and protesting won't make you any more of a hippie than you already are. All it will do is make you sound like a fake/poser and give hippies the ''classic'' or ''fake'' stereotype(saying ''man/groovy'', wearing trippy sunglasses, giving the peace sign constantly, and so on). But to sum up my discussion, the point is to not give a fuck about what other people around you think and just move forward in life. Everyone knows I'm a long-haired peace-supporting pot-smoking acid-dropping hippie, and I'm perfectly fine with it.

 

Well I act like "Scott", and Scott is stereotyped as a hippy, so yeah I totally do.

I once got called down to Drug-counselling cause my teachers complained that Im acting weired, now I will say that im really weired most of the time at school. Teachers thought I was munching Shrooms or Ecstasy early in the morning Also thought that im really "high" all the time due to my "classroom antics" Its good fun being stereotyped *sometimes* plus me and the drug counsellor are good friends

 

lol well much of it has already been said but YES!!!!!

I act just the same at school as I do anywhere else, wearing colorful "psychedelic clothes," yes, dashikis + hemp, long hair, always talking about pot/psychedelics, other dimensions/extrasensory perception, social reform, love etc etc everyone knows what's up with me pretty much and I love it. wouldn't have it any other way. I do tend to get in trouble for speaking my mind, though, but DAMN if I'll ever sacrifice my principles!!!!!!

 

jus be urself man bein a hippy iz jus how sum people r i think itz mostly wat u wanna do but yes i do wear hippy clothes 2 skool lol and smoke alot of weed lol

 

Brilliant . .

 

this actually seems like a really embarassing question to have to ask.


why would someone not be who they are during a large portion of their day?

 

There are only like two hippies at my school, me being included. As I'm in england I have to where uniform which sucks. Try to make it your own and the teachers attack you. I act like a hippie and I'm known as the eco vegan hippie girl.. or something like that. hehe! i just wish i knew more people my age who are like me.

'To use your head, you must go out of your mind.'
