So, it's 2 o'clock in the morning & I've been sitting on Youtube for like the last 3 hours trying to avoid my sore throat. I've now just noticed I haven't "journaled" in forever, but maybe that's just my lazy way of not finding yet another place to write about myself. Possibly. If you're a fellow writer, you most likely have a blog, a journal, some sort of an extremely private diary & maybe an extra lyric or quote book of some sort. You now know I do. Is it possible to say I'm somewhat OCD about every thought that goes through my head at every random second of the day? Let's pretend we can. I've really been up to nothing the last few days, trying to thoroughly enjoy my 5 straight days off of work, but did somehow manage to get to the grocery store & TJ Maxx earlier. Oh & don't worry... I bought nothing interesting. It's getting colder as I'm slightly stressing at the snow filled days that lie ahead. FYI: Our winter's been a tad bit behind this year. Oddly enough, it's always been some way out there, extreme, slight crazy dream of mine to live in Maine, so I can't even tell you why I'm now finding the snow to bother me. Whatevs. :p Valentine's day is coming fast. So that's cool. I guess. Ok, not really. Imma be honest with you all right now & say I haven't had a Valentine since like Elementary school. It seems like the cute love notes & candy with a really sweet, sheepish way of saying "I like you." has vanished into totally thin air this day & age. (Wow, do I sound old.) I like to live vicariously through those old 90's movies like "Pretty In Pink" & "Sixteen Candles." "Breakfast Club" anyone? I keep hoping for the best, but I'm sorta hard to please, let alone impress, but I can admit I know what I want. Really, just make me laugh & you're takin' a step in the right direction. True for most girls, I think? I'm actually dating Ryan Gosling... it's just absolutely no one knows. ;) He is my definition of Prince Charming. You got that boys? I think maybe cold medicine & sleep deprivation may be the one talking right now, or I guess typing, but I just wanted to check in, say what's up & wish you a handsome gentleman for your future. You're beautiful! MUAH! (:

Trunk or treat? Trick or treat? Woop woop, it's Halloween! :p
Today, we had a teensy bit of a party at work in honor of the spooky holiday & I was a "cereal killer." Get it? Ha...ha! Cereal company logo's, fake blood, & a whole lot of enthusiasm can get a girl far. Especially this girl. You know how I roll. I went all out makeup style... sort of. Honestly, it took black eyeshadow, eyeliner, & 10 minutes. BUT this was my creeper result:

K, I have to admit - sometimes I'm apalled by human nature.
Since the day I was born, I have been a Disney nut. This is the 17 year old who still watches Disney Channel talking. Yes, I am a fan of Selena Gomez. I watch Wizards Of Waverly Place. This year she happens to be hosting the EMA's for MTV & when this promo picture was released:
I was immediatly intrigued by the comments to follow. Heads up, not a good idea. Cyber bullying literally infuriates & disgusts me! I only get all angry & riled up even when things aren't being said about me. Nevertheless, I had to talk about this.
In the actual EMA video promo, Selena's wearing the same outfits intending to be a Nicki Minaj "Super Bass" parody. I have never seen Selena in public in nothing but a bra any other day. She has an alter ego, a rapping alter ego which I find highly entertaining ( If Taylor Swift can rap, why can't Sel?!) & perfect for an award show. We've seen so many like it, she's doing nothing different. Bottom line, people are jealous. Taffyteeth said, "I'm seriously losing respect for Selena. She's more like Scumbag Gomez these days. She used to be a cutie but she's trying too hard." Christmas said, " OMG! Major PHOTOSHOP! Especially on her hideous face where she's sitting in that chair... btw... what a fu%%skank!" AND "her belly... in the mirror... wow, unlike Miley, she has a whole lot of fat there... and she's does NOT know how to be sexy! Embarrasing!" (comments found on Oceanup)
SERIOUSLY?! If Selena's fat, I'd hate to see skinny. I always say if you have haters you're doing something right. There is definitly a lack of maturity here & a whole lot of self conscious girls. Nuff said? Words can hurt. A lot. Brusies fade. Have you ever tried to fade a memory?! Please let me know if you can because I certaintly haven't been able to.
Vent blog. Thanks for reading.
P.S. I find it very weird that people are apalled by the site of a bra but girls can strut around in bikini's all summer & no one cares. You with me?

Oh hey ladies(: Katie here. While trying to decipher the choice for SOTW... & continually trying to eliminate Demi Lovato from the list (I seriously cannot get enough of "Unbroken") I decided to add this new Journal page. Good idea?
I LOVE writing. It's my passion. There are some days where something just really awesome or "blog worthy" occurs & of course I want to write about it.
Tonight on MTV "Disconncted" premieres, the movie featuring a theme of cyber bullying - bullying really in general. You have to understand I'm a Libra, which means part of my personality is literally being disgusted by the hurtful things people say to eachother. I've never been a victim of severe harassment, but I'm all for standing up against it.
By now you're probably wondering what this has to do with anything.... & no I'm not being sponsored to talk about this.
BUT the other day I was waiting at the bus stop & met an extremely nice gentleman (I must say) who happened to be transgender. Right off the bat, he was open to his personality, his life choice and the very, very, very cruel torture to follow. He told me he had just finished a 5 hour walk after coming home from work. Two boys & a girl old enough to know better stopped & asked if he needed a ride, dropping him off miles from where he said he needed to go.
This isn't funny. Bullying isn't funny, nothing at all to find entertaining.
I say, I believe, I think people can be whoever they want to be. Obviously there are consequences for our decisions but isn't up to strangers to decide what they are or what we deserve. Be whoever you want to be because the best you comes from being yourself. XO
