And I don't mind the shape that your head is in...

I am, before all things, an actor. Life is a movie to me. It's a sad, satirical movie...probably based in the 1940's war-time era...because that era always wins Golden Globes, no matter how boring the movie is. *cough*Atonement*cough*

I am set apart from the world by my own choosing.

Actually...you know what? Let's make this a fun post. Self-pity never adorned any great scholar we now respect in modern times. Life is fun! We need to make sure we have LOTS of unnecessary fun! Let's have fun!!!



NOT TOO MUCH FUN THOUGH!!!



If we can all just calm down for a second here, I'll explain to you what is going through my mind.

What truly makes us happy in life? Is it objects? People? Love?

<<< This guy?

I believe happiness comes from all of these places. Obviously, what makes us happy depends on how we're raised. If someone, like myself, grew up watching "Harry and the Hendersons" and "Christmas Vacation"...that someone is still going to laugh at those movies if they watch them today. Why do we continue to "train" ourselves by catering to our friends? If your friends don't enjoy any of the same things you do...GET NEW FRIENDS! As good a friend as Anne Franke probably was...Adolf Hitler would probably never have been her friend! They had nothing in common! It bothers me that people can be so fake. Trust me...I do it too. I pretended to love Halo once, for a party, just so I wouldn't sit by myself in the corner. Let's be ourselves around our friends, ohkay!? Don't complain that your friends don't accept you for who you are unless you're willing to be yourself. Be happy and enjoy your time under the sun! We get a limited amount of time on this planet. Why would you waste one second of it convincing everyone that you are someone else?

I leave you with this thought:
