Dresscode Essay

       Personally I dislike the Mary Phillips Dress-code. Some reasons why I dislike the Mary Phillips dress-code are because, we cant express our individuality, I Personally don't like to wear the same colors everyday & for females to wear such a light color can sometimes be a problem. 
      One reason I dislike the Mary Phillips dress-code is because, we cant express our individuality. I think everybody should be able to express there individuality & who they are. Nobody should feel like they cant express themselves for an individual instead of a collection of students. Also, I believe that every body should express themselves as individual because with me being a twin I know what its like to feel like you cant be just an individual but as a collection. 
      Also another reason why I dislike the Mary Phillips dress-code is because, I don't like the fact we have to wear the same colors everyday. I think that wearing the same color everyday is unoriginal & very plain. The color khaki isn't my favorite color, I would rather wear black or jean colored. Also not being able to wear a different color shirts besides black,white or grey shirts gets boring after awhile, I feel we should be able to spice it up a bit. 
     My last reason why I don't like the Mary Phillips dress-code is because, light colored pants might cause some problems for the females. With females having a mouthy issue I don't think light colors are best because it could be embarrassing. For a male they don't have that problem so they wouldn't know what its like to have to be cautious every mouth so we don't have to be embarrassed.
    Some people have mixed feelings about the dress-code but I personally don't like it.These are the reasons why I disagree with the Mary Phillips dress-code, we cant express out individuality, I don't like the same exact colors everyday, & Light colors might be a problem for some females.

The Ugly Duckling - Theme

 

       In the story The Ugly Duckling I feel like the author taught us a valuable lesson. I feel the lesson was " Never Judge A Book By Its Cover." I saw this example when the baby duckling was born & she came out different then all the other ducklings. The other ducklings treated her badly because she was a different color. As the duckling got older she became just as beautiful as the other ducklings. An example in real life would be people judging other people based off their physical appearance. In other words when people think they're better than someone else because of their looks, & how they dress. Just because they look or dress different doesn't mean they're any less than anyone else.
