When Jeanne first arrived at Manzanar, she felt overwhelmed because before, “We were the only Japanese family in the neighborhood.” (7) The family began to grow apart as time passed, so Jeanne began to explore by herself. Once schools started, she began to experiment with many things; however papa didn’t have the same thoughts. Before they began to leave Manzanar, they expected brutal racism because of other stories, but once they arrived in the new place, it wasn’t as bad as they thought. While they were there Jeanne begins to go to Middle school as a 6th grader. While she is there, people are very surprised that she can speak English.
Nowadays, we can see lots of teenagers who try to fit in on the society by living like the society; sometimes this led to destruction. As the novel continues, Josie also feels being pressured at her school. Firstly, because most of the students at her school came from wealthy families and her acceptance to the wealthy catholic girl’ school was trough scholarship and not by paying the fees. Secondly, because her parents weren’t married when she was born and she had never met her father until the age of seventeen; in other words she doesn’t feel as normal like the other girls at her school feels. In my experience, issues like this happen in many schools, when you feel you’re an outcast on your school because you came from a low standard of living and your studying in a wealthy school.
In the poem, the speaker states the girlchild has “wee lipsticks the color of cherry candy” (4), showing that she already wants to alter her appearance. As children grow into young adults, they become aware of outside judgments; as the girlchild was made aware in the poem. “Then in the magic of puberty, a classmate said:/ You have a great big nose and fat legs” (5-6). Girls are pressured into looking the way media portrays beauty. Unfortunately, outward appearances take on a more important role than other characteristics to teenage girls.
During their teenage years, girls start to question their identity. Modeling teaches young girls to center their identity only on their looks (Machoian). Girls look at magazines and see a beautiful model on the cover wishing that they looked the same. They forget that the model they see on the cover has make-up on, and, most likely the picture was edited using some type of photo shop. Modeling along with social media give girls the impression that they have to fit this idealized image to look thin and be beautiful, dress up nicely, and wear makeup or they will not be happy with themselves.
Human behaviour can change depending on the setting we are put in. There are different aspects which can affect our behaviour, influencing how we feel, think and behave. People are part of the causal effect as we as human beings want to belong; no one wants to be left out on their own. All human beings act differently in different situations, because no one is the same. However in today's society, psychologists have been able to do research on the way human’s behaviour react in different situations with different participants to be able to get a generalized result but to do so they must first distinguish if the participant is showing social or personal identities.
People go through frequent phase changes which normally involve a change in attire and a thorough change in that of an overall physical appearance as well. The type of clothes, the hair style, the makeup, all contribute to the image of how a person wants to be portrayed by the public. The image change can result in a change of popularity, which can either positively or negatively impact ones public recognition. Public recognition tends to be based on an individual’s actions rather than of their physical image. The way one talks, the attitude one carries, the level of confidence they hold, the attention one tries to gain, and the respect one has, is all collected to create a reputation of who that person is.

We sometimes seem wired to adopt the goals of the people around us, particularly when we develop a close relationship with them. Of course, that can be a positive or negative thing depending on what the people around us are doing. For that reason, we have to be careful to surround ourselves with other people who are engaging in behaviours that we would like to see in ourselves. If one is unable to feel adequate enough within a group or is not fully comfortable with themselves, there is a chance one may conform in order to fit in. ‘The more insecure people feel, the more conformist they become.’- John Elder.
“Our relationships with others help us to determine who we are.” The way we interact with others whether they be a stranger or a friend helps to define who we are and our identity. In life, we make many very different relationships. As humans, the need of social relationships with others is very necessary. To find our identity and to fit into a group we force ourselves to be more like them. When we are surrounded by people who are more like us we tend to share and understand more.
As an example, if someone moves to Texas and is constantly with people from their culture, they will eventually change their traditions as well as their communication skills and end up pronouncing words with their accent. It affects how we see ourselves "fitting" in the world around us. We are influenced in a negative or positive manner by the lifestyle of our environment. Society and family indicates how we are accepted by the larger community in which we are encouraged to interact and develop our own personal perception. We begin to define ourselves in the culture to which we are born in, our way of interacting in social relationships, our music, our language, and our morals.
