***I like to put on Misfits REALLY loud and rock out like a total goober. It makes me really happy.***
My birthday party is Friday. Jen already made a post about it. So you are safe FOR NOW!!! But you'd better be planning on making it down here. And making it sexy.
Cos a girl can only turn Sweet Sixteen so many times.
I had another weird dream... this one involved me being back in high school.
It was like, normal high school Aryka - but accelerated. And *good*.
I was very pro-life, abstinent (I wore a purity ring, for fuck's sake!), and into saving the whales.
People made fun of my causes and thought I was a weird chick for having convictions.
::rolls her eyes:: Not that I'm really pro-life, abstinent, or a whale hero.
Anyways... In our school random girls would be selected to leave regular HS and go to Geisha Training. And I was chosen. I couldn't figure out how *I* got chosen, cos I was such a misfit that it didn't make any sense.
But they evidently saw something in me that no one else did.
I went through training and part of my debut required me to be a part of this weird assembly at the HS. For everyone I HAD gone to school with.
It consisted of like, a dance and shit.
After the performance, we had to mingle with the students. And everyone was all the sudden very interested in my causes and if I was still behind them. They feigned interest in them because they thought I was gorgeous and they now wanted to sleep with me!
I was angry, cos it was like "When was here, I was just some weird girl that didn't fit in and no one liked... and now that I am pretty - you want to sleep with me and you care about what I have to say? LAME!"
It is all evidence of my Ugly Duckling Syndrome.
I *was* a weird chick in High School. (Hello - I still am.)
I wasn't THAT weird, but I was definitely an outcast and a lot of people didn't like me because they didn't "get me".
Now that I'm older and a lot more secure and comfortable with myself and my eccentricities and out of the situation where I felt pressured to change to fit in, it seems like people respond better to me.
But it never fails to weird me out when people respond to my physical appearance in a positive way. And want to hear about what I have to say because of it.
It's just so separate from my experiences in the past, you know?
