assigment 2

I agree with Georges comments about peer pressure because what your friends do you usually end up doing. Some people think they have to dress a certain way to have friends, and thats mostly the pressure I've seen. If your really friends with someone, they wont pressure you to do soemthing you dont want to. I'm just saying that there are some poeple who think they have to change but they really don't need to. I have not seen this pressure happen to anyone because I like my friends and they like me and we agree on most of our desisions.
