No i do not agree with this statement why would you want to make people think your someone your not besides the truth will come out no matter what
Yes i agree, most people have fake i.d's because they do not want people to know there true identity. I think the reason people they don't have a green card or owe alot of money to somebody.
If someone didn't know who you were and they just met you, you could convince them that you were somebody even tho you weren't who you say you are. But if someone already knew them you couldn't convince them other wise.
I think it is possible to make people believe you are someone you are not. Some people have different additudes around different people. Some people who do that are people who are self centered.
Yes, i agree because some people try to be someone there not because they want to fit in with other people and be like them so they try there hardest to blend in.
I agree, the world's great wonders and arrogant people have easy believes he is a super star. A person who likes to play basketball, and by others compliment into Jordan, he really thinks he is Michael Jordan.
I agree with this statement only because some people choose to act like someone there not to get noticed or to be "cool." Also, they may act like that so people like them for who there not instead of who they really are.
No i dont agree with this statement because there are people that act like there all that and you can see it just by one glance. Like there are some people in this school that act like they are gangsters and you can see it just by looking at them and not even talking to them that they are trying to act like they are some other kind of person.
I agree. I think if someone pretends to be someone there not long enough and work at it people will actually start to fall for it. Some people can be really good at hiding who they really are simply because they dont want anyone to know. Its easy to pretend, the hard part is to get people to belive it. But it is possible.
People may do it because they are afraid to reveal who they really are, they're afraid to be judged. Or they might do it to try and fit in with a certain clique of people.
I dont think your should act like someone your not, i think you should just be your self no matter who is around, because they will eventually find out who you truely are.
Ben I disagree because there are poeple that try in fit in with other groups when there nothing like the group there try in to fit in with. There was this one kid that wasn't all there at my old school and he was trying to fit in with the emo group when he wasn't even like that group.
I think that it would matter what you mean in this type of situation meaning by physically or verbally, you can dress a certain way and people could judge you but i don't think you could tell someone that you are sonmeone else
Dustin, like if people jump the border they dont want people to know thier real name. If the owe money in another state they may have a fake i.d for a different state. Jacob Bickel
That is true Kerstin because I know people who act like they are all that around there friends and sooner or later there friends find out that they are not that kind of person and just dont want to hang out with them.
Most people dont act like them selves because they want to fit in so bad with everybody else and they are afraid if they be there selves then those people wont like them.

I agree,

Austin
Yes because they could act like someone they are not and try to be different.
Anthony-

I agree because people try to fit in by acting like someone they're not.
So why do people do this?
Anthony
I agree with you when people are around there friends they act like them selves, but when they go around someone new they act completly different.

Byron
I disagree with this statement i think that no matter what you do to make someone believe your someone youre not the real you will come out eventualy
Justice Rowe,
Yes i think some people will do anything even if they have to change who they are just to fit in for someone else. I think its worng though.
people do it so they won't ruin there real lives
Dustin
jacob-what do u mean by dont have a green card or owe alot of money t
I think people do this so they can think of them self as "cool"
Byron,
What do you mean: the real you will eventually come out?
Taylor
Probably because they want to fit in or like I said be "cool" so people will like them.
I think they do it becuase they want to try and fit in or dont want other people to know who they really are inside.
-Kerstin
Taylor I agree with what you said about people acting like someone they're not just to get noticed.
Cathy
I mean that no matter what you do you are going to end up being yourself
~Byron

C.m
Limit
Yes it is possible to make some one belive that your some one that your really not.
Xena

Cathy,
People may do it because they are afraid to reveal who they really are, they're afraid to be judged. Or they might do it to try and fit in with a certain clique of people.

Cathy
I dont think your should act like someone your not, i think you should just be your self no matter who is around, because they will eventually find out who you truely are.
-Kerstin
Cathy, this is the word "clique".

Dustin
jacob-what do u mean by dont have a green card or owe alot of money
Kerstin, I agree. People should act like who they really are, and not try and be someone they are not.
i agree with you kerstin people should just be there self no matter what or who it is.
Justice Rowe
byron,
i agree with you. no matter how hard ppl try to act like something they're not they do end up being themselves sometime.
*virginia

Aidas Raudonis

Ben
Dustin,
like if people jump the border they dont want people to know thier real name. If the owe money in another state they may have a fake i.d for a different state.

Xena
Jacob, a clique is groups of people that tend to hang out together. They would be like the 'preps', 'emos', 'jocks' ect.
Cathy
Most people dont act like them selves because they want to fit in so bad with everybody else and they are afraid if they be there selves then those people wont like them.
