Shmarinormal Shmactivity.
So I saw Paranormal Activity tonight. And I've heard all about the horrible effects it has on people. Prim and jesse first went to see it a week ago and came back creeped out completely. Prim seemed fascinated, Jesse couldn't sleep for the rest of the night. I was completely oblivious to it all, busy on my portfolio.
I've heard people had to leave to throw up, people had to be dragged out, blah blah blah. Tonight I saw a girl crying when we got out of the theater. Well I saw it and was kinda okay with all of it. It really wasn't until the very end when I got completely creeped out.
I for one just don't do well with scary movies. I'm waaay too sensitive for that crap and I avoid it as much as possible. I don't do well in scary haunted mazes either cuz well....fake or not, I just don't like seeing SCARY/UGLY THINGS let alone popping out and touching me. Hell i didn't even really wanna see this movie, but i tried to just suck it up. haha
During and after the movie, i felt like it wasn't too bad considering I was desensitized to stuff like that from "Ghost Hunters." However on the drive home I started thinking more and more about it, eventually obsessing over it, just started asking all these questions...
THEN i got freaked out. How it works in my head is that I remind myself that if i start to "believe" or obsess over things like spirits, ghosts, demons, then it'll come true. So once that thought ran through my head, I freaked out a little more inside. I HATE THIS FEELING. I came home to my unfamiliar new house, ate a late dinner (big mistake), and attempted to sleep, though all I could think about was the damn movie.
NOW I realize, okay yes it was a very scary movie. It was not true or real, but frickin a. I usually would get shaken up by a movie, and eventually fall asleep, but man...seriously. I just can't tonight. Maybe I just didn't have enough time to recover from all of it. I try to fall asleep and too many images come up when i close my eyes. And then the more that I try to force myself to not think about it, the more i think.....the more i think, the more i stay awake. And so on...
And so here I am sitting next to a well lit lamp to give me some company. It also was a BIIIG mistake to take a 2 hour nap earlier today from 5-7pm. First nap in like 2 months, hell yeah it'll be affective.
I actually have plans to wake up early and go to LACMA with a friend tomorrow, but this is gonna be a problem. Sigh. I have a headache, I obviously need to sleep, but I seriously just can't. I get an uneasy feeling that gets me super uncomfortable when laying in bed, and with no one around to comfort me.
NEVER AGAIN WITH SCARY MOVIES. Scary movies and I just do NOT GO WELL TOGETHER. Call me dumb, but man I can't let em go, I often am easily imprinted with vivid pictures in my head and that stuff sticks horribly. I'm naturally a worry wart as it is, and i guess you can say I'm paranoid. So scary movies do not help.
