According to dictionary.com Counter Cultural means this:
"the culture and lifestyle of those people, especially among the young, who reject or oppose the dominant values and behavior of society."
To me that means not following the crowd or todays media to get my opinions. My opinions need to come from the bible. But I do not need to go wear a long skirt to be a modest Christian. I can still wear my skinny jeans and drink that latte and be a normal teen and follow God's will for my life. Plus I can show you how to make an awesome latte at home way cheaper! I live in the country. The closest Starbucks is 45 minutes away and the closest coffee shop is 20 minutes away!
I do some strange things. I show cows, I am involved in my local arts council, I am the service chairman for my homeschool honor society (I refer to it as the nerd herd or the gathering of the nerds), I play piano, and I do other little things here and there.
I have two little brothers and two little sisters! They are amazing! The boys are 21 months and 8 years. The girls are 11 and 14.
I love to save money! In fact the first thing I plan to post under Broke Teen will be how I turned my old jeans into shorts and a super cute vest for summer! For prom the only thing I spent full price on was getting my hair done and I bought my nail polish full price. I am a total cheap-o! But I got everything I needed, clutch, shoes, jewelry, dress, make-up, hair, everything! For around 100 dollars! Oh yea!
Okay, all of that to say I am ME! Different, strange, loud, and somewhat interesting!
I hope y'all enjoy my future blogging! :)
