Why is it weird instead of different?

What's up this is your girl Raven Simone and my thing is why is it that just because someone does something in a different way then they must be weird. For example we have a bearded dragon in our science class and I gave it a bath and everyone had something to say about what I did. They called me weird and they also said unnecessary things. So my reaction was to tell them to shut up. In my opinion I think it is that they are scared to be themselves because of what people may say. So what the "weird" people do, the "normal" people want to do but just don't have the courage to.

For example if a person wants to be out going and they want to try new things like dressing in many colors, wearing their hair different, and wearing what makes them happy. Instead they stick to what is comfortable such as Jordans, Air Forces, Creative Recs and other name brands like that. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with these brands I just think if you’re just doing it because everyone else is and not because it’s what you like then that is where the problem comes in. It's a problem because you are following what other people do and not making a path for yourself. I'm going to leave you with this last bit of information. You can never look stupid with confidence.
