Questions I Ask Myself as I Get Ready for School...
Can you see my armpit stubble in this dress? Is this outfit too 90’s? Can you see my underwear through my pants? Is this outfit too goth? Did I put on deodorant yet? Is this skirt too short? Are there any holes in these tights? Does this need to be ironed? Did I wear this this week already? Can you smell my shoes?

A thought
I have to allow myself to let go of old clothing that is associated with a time and place. Why do I feel like those memories can’t exist beyond a material object? Do I think I’ll forget if I don’t see it in my closet?
