So i've been inspired by the book i'm reading to start this shit over again. I'm gonna turn my 'whiny nagging' journal into more of a column. It could even help develope some of those 'writing skills' i've been hearing so much about.
I won't start a new journal altogether or even delete my past entries because i'm not ashamed of what i've written, even though at times my entries were so pathetic that if Conor Oberst saw them he'd say "God, suck it up, pussy!"
So i'm going to kick this shit off with a list of why it is awesome to be a girl:
-We're clean. And it's okay that we're clean. Personally, i love to take showers, clean my ears, brush, floss, moisterize and things of that nature. If you're a girl, this is all okay, but if you are a boy and actually like to keep yourself smelling better than shit, you're considered gay, or at least a metrosexual.
-We fish for compliments and well, get them every time. If you're a boy and you're fishing for a compliment (and the girl has no intention of doing you) you're a tool (I use the word "Tool" because it reminds me of this kid who does this).I hate insecure guys, even though i'm an insecure girl. As girls, it's our nature to think we're fat and ugly when we know we're not because it's a game we play. And you boys fall for it every time. And notice how the fat ugly girls never complain to boys about how fat and ugly they are? It's the rules. You must be pretty and thin to tell everyone how much you hate yourself. The fat and ugly girls just keep it to themselves because if they ever said "God, i'm so fat." to a boy, he'd reply "Well, stop eating, tubby." Being a girl with a pretty decent figure and c'mon gentlemen, i'm not that bad to look at, i fish for compliments when i'm feeling like shit because usually i get the response i'm looking for. This is awesome. Always.
-Girl talk. Gossip. Sleepovers. I'm the only girl in my family (I don't even have any girl cousins) so growing up i didn't have a sister to talk to. Also, i was a pretty big tom boy so i never had really girlie sleepovers and i never cared much for juicy gossip. But now i fucking love that stuff. I love juicy gossip even if it's not true because i don't spit it at other people claiming it's true, i just love the feeling of hearing drama. I love drama. I don't like creating it and now a days, i'm even scared of saying or doing certain things in fear of creating it but i just can't resist a great story. I'm pretty sure if you're a boy it's frowned upon when you spend forever on the phone giggling and even have sleepovers. What do you guys call it, 'crashing'? And that only happens when you're too drunk to drive, right? Shit, girls plan sleepovers weeks in advance. I love it.
-Crying. I never cried at Chicks Flicks or anything sappy. But ever since the day i saw that fucking New Found Glory video where the guy leaves his girlfriend after knocking her up, i can't help but get emotional. And it's okay. Why? Because i have ovaries. Because my crazy girl hormones make me cry at the end of books where the lead character finally bites it and when John Cusack finally gets the fucking girl. For some reason lately i've gotten so emotional when i read or see movies about people in love.
"Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world that i think my heart can't take it and it's going to cave in."
If you're a boy and you cry at the end of Titanic then no doubt you will get your ass kicked by everyone you know-even girls. Some girls think it means you're a sensative guy when you cry at things like beautiful songs and whatnot but it's not. It's weird. You spend so much time acting like you're touch shit only to break down in the middle of a Michael Bolton song? That's gross, dude. Fucking gross.
-It's okay to wear guys clothing when you're a girl. Everything from their pants to their shoes. But if a guy is wearing a skirt, halter top or even anything with glitter on it-you've obviously boarded the fag mobile. Next stop, Key West. Psh, sucks for you guys. Personally, i can't get over how comfertable guys pants are. Nor do i feel at home in a pair of girls 8's in shoes. Ever since i bought the last pair of peace sign converse from Journey's which only came in a guys size ten, i haven't gone back to girls shoes.
There's some more stuff but i've written enough.
