Hey. So while I'm feeling halfway sane, i think I should say some things I've been meaning to say but haven't due to my terrible mood lately.
First: my exposure therapy. Not sure if that's what I called it, but I'm exhausted, and I can't remember what it was. Anyway, I accomplished parts 1 and 2! Aren't you excited? I mentioned this whole thing quite a while ago, so its slow going, but I'm proud.
Part one occurred a few weeks ago in the middle of the hiatus. I got a C on a math test, and the teacher offered a retake after school. F4 wanted me to stay with her, and she said she would take me home. Some background: I am petrified of breaking my schedule, especially staying after school. It's just another situation that could possibly get me in trouble. But I did it anyway. Not without a LOT of reassuring and convincing, but I did it. And guess what? I got a 100 on the retake. It brought my grade up 4 points. Totes worth it :)
Part two occured just today. As I may have mentioned, I hate the phone with a passion, and the only person I can talk to on the phone is F5. I was supposed to contact the leader of a program for a survey, and I had to call them. It made me super nervous, but I did it. And the person who answered( secretary, I'm guessing) was nice enough. I'm proud of myself.
Anyway, second: I had a mini epiphany! Nothing that effects me too much, just some understanding that I acquired.
I was on My life is Twilight the other day, laughing at the ridiculous posts, when I found one that said that someone named their kids Edward and Jocab after the main characters. At first I laughed and thought, poor kids. But then I remembered the other day when I was talking to one of my friends and mentioned that if I had twin boys I would name them Fred and george, after the twins in Harry Potter. That got me thinking.
Really, aren't we all at least a little obsessed with something? I mean, just because Harry Potter is more accepted than Twilight doesn't mean they are that much different from the Harry Potter-obsessed people. I think that Twilight is just a romance, and not worth all the fans it has, but I understand how the fans feel. I don't like Taylor lautner or Robert pattinson, but I understand the people that scream when they see them on tv, because everytime I see Darren Criss anywhere I squeal like the major fangirl that I am.
So although I don't approve of some obsessions, ( Justin Bieber? Really? He sings. Darren Criss acts, sings, and is really really good at interviews. He deserves more attention. His one flaw is that he doesn't thank his fans enough) I know how they feel. So even though not everyone has the same opinion on everything, we can be united by our dedication to our fandoms.
In biology today, we were taking notesvand my twihard friend F6 said that she had so many twilight references for that section. I go around everyday constantly quoting musicals and shows until I no longer have an original thought in my mind. So we have different inspiration. We are still so similar. At that moment, I felt like we had so much in common.
I guess this all kind of comes back to acceptance. Try to remember the common bonds with people, not the differences.
So yeah, I'm feeling a little better temporarily, except I think I lost all of my readers during the hiatus.( I love that word!) please still be here? * insert puppy dog eyes*
Wanna share your obsessions? I'm always open! I know I would jump at the chance to share mine.
Guess what else happened today? I got called a nerd. More than once. I said thank you. Cuz what better compliment is there? In the words of John Green, being a nerd means you can get excited about things. Like jumpupanddowninyourchaircantcontainyourself excited. It's really fun. You should all try it. Btw, not an exact quote. But you get the gist. Being a nerd is fun. I consider myself a smart Harry Potter/ Musical nerd. It's awesome.( this probably explains why I love A Very Potter Mysical so much. It combines my two nerd obsessions. What could be better?)
Anyway, I should go. Please keep reading! I would love you forever! Especially if you comment!
Thank you all.
Goodbye!
I feel like I haven't been using nearly enough quotes. So you guys are all supermegafoxyawesomehot! And commentors get virtual redvines!
