After that the only thing you have to do is leave quickly before anyone can protest.

"Slip Away Unnoticed" (Piven et al. 292-294).

Slip away unnoticed is another great way to escape. Start by identifying your escape route and after that if you're with someone tell them if you can be excuse, go to the bathroom and plan what you have to do. You can alter your appearance , change your clothing, your cosmetics ,change your hairstyle or try to fake that you're sick. Your friend will notice that you may be sick. Leave when nobody is paying attention, this is the easiest way to leave a party or any other situation.  When you're on a party people are having fun, so they don’t really notice what’s going on.  If  no one is seeing you can take your belongings and leave quickly. After you're far as possible or in another place, call your friend an apologize you can used the excuse of an emergency or simple just leave it as it is and when they ask you tell them you felt sick, had an emergency or make something up.

"Slip Out of the Window" (Piven et al. 294).
If you feel bad leaving without telling no one, or have no escape just  try the the method of slip out the window, first you have to locate a usable window, it has to be not too high, or one that can hurt you. Attempt to open the window if you can open it, go look for some other. Find anything to break the window. Prepare to break the window if you cannot open it , or find a way to break it quietly. An easy way is to strike the center of the glass with the anything. Punch out any remaining sharps glass so you won't get hurt. Make sure you don’t make any noise, if no one hears you, quickly leave, if that doesn't work good luck, try another method.

"Get Your Date to Leave" (Piven et al. 295-296).

If the party is at your house and you want people to leave, try to say something offensive, used religion or ethnicity inappropriate comment or do something people won’t want to see.  Tell your friends you have to go somewhere and that they have to leave. Fake that you're sick and that you have to go the hospital. If you're a teenager fake that your parents are coming or that the cops came and tell you that the volume is loud and that the neighbors want everyone to leave.

 When I was becoming a teenager my behavior changed, i wasn't that happy any more. My happiness turn into anxiety and anger, i never knew why? . The change started when i started Junior High, all my peers wanted me to join any kind of sports soccer, basketball or football. I always have been a sweet person, always trying to make anyone happy. Peer pressure was making me act different , i was becoming so other different person. My behavior changed from joyful to depressing in only a few school years. At first I was satisfied with my surroundings, but it all changed when my parents, especially my dad, wanted me to keep playing more sports. . This was the start of my depressing behavior, because I wasn't really a fan of football, I was more of a soccer type of person. Later in 8th grade I felt pushed around by my family because our team was going to the state championship. This made me feel stressed, I got sick one day , due to all the stress and everything I was feeling. The doctor told my parents about the problems I was going through, I finally told them what was going on. They understood me and told me that if didn't want to play football, then I shouldn't play . My attitude toward the behavior I was giving my peers, family, and teachers changed, when my parents understood what I was going through..

Music is a way for some people to express, and art is also another way. People may paint themselves, or tattoo any part of their body to express who they are or their feelings. In my occasion I express myself by music, I would never get a tattoo for several reasons. Tattoos have been around from many ages, some used them as expression, cultural belief and other just to copy famous people or any other person. Since 1990's through 2012 according the U.s News & World Report, tattooing has become the  highest risk for related transmitted diseases as HIV/AIDS and hepatitis. There has been an estimation of 15,000 or more tattoo studios that have been closed for using the same needles on the same customers, using cheap  materials or other materials that can damage their skins.  In the past year many people have been getting tattoos in their own houses by professional that in some cases damage the customers body.I wouldn't like to get any diseases from getting a tattoo. During the 2000 B.C many females in Egypt would tattoo their bodies, some tattoo their bodies  as amulets, status symbols, declaration of love ,signs of religious beliefs , adornments and many others. I believe that in some culture they used other chemicals and materials that won damaged their bodies. The didn't know anything about diseases, and some of them were dying after getting their tattoos. Many familiar members had/have tattoos, i think its up to the person, in my occasion i believe that i may get a disease. I wouldn't like to have tattoos, because when you’re older it will disappear in my wrinkles. I also wouldn't get a tattoo, due that many jobs don’t accept  tattoos, because of professionalism. I would also like to donated blood and save lives, i wouldn't like to risk a life,because i decided to get  a tattoo, but is up to the person, we all think different and express different.
