Do not laugh at what I am about to say.
Now by no means am I fighting in a war, have a great lizard to give me wisdom or falling in love with my hot teacher, I do have a great Granny who at times reminds me of her own Grandmother. I also have More so I also feel that through this horrible teenage angst that seems to be corroding the whole movie there is this desire in me to be immeasurably hardcore and epic. Where is my chance to become like Mulan, Katniss, Tris, (I.E. Hunger Games and Divergent) to do something to change the world and be...what is the term...LEGIT? Obviously, this is a little exaggerated seeing as it is Disney and Fantasy buuutttt part of me relates to the heroine aspect of these stories. I want to do life myself and not have someone constantly SAVING me... I want to be strong, Independent, resourceful and better yet I want to be what I write about. I don't want to write a character who is everything I want to be, I mean come on that is pathetic! I want to write about someone I can relate to, someone who everyone can relate to or aspire to be like.
Part of us, doesn't want to be Cinderella who is taken care of by her Godmother, or Sleeping Beauty who has 3 fairies who do her bidding but we want to be Mulan, who fights, or even Belle who is brave. I mean for all of you who know me, can you see me sitting down and letting some one else do something for me? pshhhh noooooo thannnkkkk youuu.
GET ON MY LEVEL! to break it down... I want to be brave.
And the great thing about that is sometimes, its not about fighting and overcoming those crazy, impossible obstacles. Sometimes it's the small things like goingtogetyourcarfixedbyyourself.... or killingthebuginthebathroom!!! Now I am not ready to see a whale or have a pet snake.. that's outrageous but it is in the small things. I just hope that when my adventure comes I actually take it, or the opportunity arises I jump because that is what this is really about.
Once again I realize that is romanticized and I am totally living in a fantasy but this is what we learn to want. Let's just be real, I can't even write a good blog daily and my last ones have been more rants than funny buuuutttt lol sometimes College life isn't as hilarious as we make it out to be... our stories are just accumulated over time :D It is fun though to sit and process my day through this, yes some of my stories are exaggerated.. but listen my life is exaggerated k?Welcome to my world.
