This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at JMU chapter.

CSDC set up this display on the Commons the week before Spring Break to remind girls to not stress over body image.  Even with all of society pressuring us to be something we’re not, we have to ask ourselves what message we are sending with how we look. Barbie isn’t real, so don’t strive to be her… BeYOUtiful instead!

Have you ever thought "Am I the only one who..."? I'm sure you have, and I promise you're not. Live the life you love. I don't take things too seriously, because life is too short to be so obsessed with what everyone thinks of me. I became a writer so I could say what everyone else is thinking. I believe that treating others the way you want to be treated means you will never have to regret a decision you make. I make mistakes, but that's what makes great articles!
