Thinking Things...

So, it's funny how sometimes our brains go out on strange tangents from the smallest trigger...

For instance, take hearing "I'll Never Break Your Heart" by the Backstreet Boys. The lyrics are actually quite beautiful but totally unattainable. It is impossible to guarantee someone that you'll "never break their heart" or "never make them cry". I grew up listening to such lyrics. Beautiful, yet unrealistic. Nobody's perfect--even the boy band members of the world :P

But do such notions instilled in a teenage girl make her think that that's what she needs to look for in this world? On some level, am I looking for that guy who won't break my heart? Strange thoughts I know...

Or maybe it's been a lifelong love of musicals and rom-coms? I would love to be in love in a movie. I would love to have that grand romance and be swept off my feet and find that person to be in love with forever. If you look at my movie collection 90% of the movies have happy endings. The guy and the girl always get together and everything works out for the best. The only movies that don't fit this are my XMen/Fantastic 4/SNL movies which don't really apply to the genre.

I guess my mind is thinking about these things lately because it seems like everyone is moving forward and I'm stuck. I'm not in the past, but I'm not really working toward a future either. I'm just here.

And it's not just in the love department. With work, although I still love my job, it's not like it's going to change for awhile. It's going to stay the same. And outside of that I don't have much going on. My life is pretty much work and a lack of boy drama/love.

I'm also tired. Between working extra and the weather turning colder, and me not feeling 100% healthy...I'm just tired. It will pass, but still. I hate feeling ick.

And I find things that shouldn't bother me very irritating. Two prime examples: Operation Wall Street and Maks on DWTS.

1. OWS is driving me crazy because I'm sick of hearing about a bunch of people who are whining about having college debt and being poor. What about getting off of your asses and working? I do it every day. It isn't easy, but guess what? I DO IT. There's a reason older generations think Gen Y acts like a bunch of entitled brats. I'm sorry, but just because you went to school, it doesn't guarantee you a job in the real world. You may have to do a shitty job like work in a Dollar Store and want to kill yourself, but that's called character building. PLUS if you don't have anything but school experience, how can you expect to get a job? GRRRR! Bitch and moan all you want about people being 99% poor and 1% rich, but it's not doing anything. Why not protest homelessness or hunger in America? Idk. It's just buggin me.

2. Maks on DWTS. What a prick. He basically said it was "his show" and that he's sick and tired of things not going his way. Wah wah wah. Cry me a river. He's choreographed shitty dances all season and he does nothing but insult his partner and kill any confidence she could have. Plus he basically told Len to retire because he didn't like Len's comments about the crappy dance. Maks may be a professional dancer, but he lacks professional behavior. Disrespect is bullshit and unnecessary.

So there you have it. A bunch of blah thoughts for the night. Perhaps I am being negative (sorry Melissa).
