Daisy's ways (;
The other girl, Daisy, made an attempt to rise
she leaned slightly forward with a conscientious expression,
then she laughed, an absurd, charming little laugh,
and I laughed too and came forward into the room.
“I’m p-paralyzed with happiness.” She laughed again,
as if she said something very witty, and held my hand for a moment,
looking up into my face, promising that there was no one in the world she so much wanted to see.
That was a way she had. ( Fitgerald Page 13)

Would you marry for money?
DO NOT become a gold digger and marry somebody just for the money! It's wrong and your relationship with that person won't be healthy! Personally I would not marry for money. I would not marry for money because money does not make me happy all the time. I mean yeah when you have money it's a great feeling but if you have all the money in the world and not know what to do with it, then it can lead to depression, or other problems. Your supposed to marry someone for who they are in the inside, not for the looks or the money. You need someone who will be by your side no matter what the situation is. You also need someone to like/love you for who you are, not because of the money you have. You wouldn't like it if somebody married you for your money, but thought you were ugly, or the most annoying person on this planet or vice versa. Now if you go for the persons looks instead of going, then that's all you.

Outward appearances!
I believe outward appearances are deceptive. Why I believe they are deceptive is because they don't tell everything about a person all of the time. For example, I know one of my friends who wears all of these private school uniforms and listens to rock music and he's black. (not to be racist) I also know my cousin who dresses indie most of the time, and yet listens to country music and plays sports. I've also witnessed a buff man with all these workout shirts who has a hobby for singing than working out, or playing a sport. It doesn't necessarily have to do with music or clothes, it could also do with hairstyle, personality, etc. We are too concerened with our outer appearance because we do not want people judging us by our looks and what we wear, so sometimes we try to please them by wearing what they like. I also believe what we have in America is substantial because we know how to appreciate things we have, well some of us. Honestly, I'm not one to judge others money, or looks because I don't want to make them wear something they don't want to wear. If they like Abercrombie, let them wear Abercrombie. If they like Wal-mart clothes, let them wear Wal-mart clothes. If they do not have as much money as another person, then i won't make fun of them or anything like that, I will just let them go on with their lives!
