I Have No Idea What To Think Right Now

You know, about the VD season finale?
I honestly don't know what to think. There are soooo many parts where I was all "Oh God, this is sooo lame!"
It's not that I hated what I saw, it's just... I didn't care about it at all! There was nothing that made me feel... anything, really. Or, well, I guess the only feeling I got was annoyance at everything.

There were two scenes that I got emotionally invested in (in a good way) and then it turned out they weren't what I thought they were. SPOILER AHEAD


... made me feel something, if only for a short moment:

First: When Klaus' half-decomposed body got staked by evil!vamp!Alaric. I experienced a moment of real shock and fear because I don't want Klaus to be permanently dead. But that feeling was short-lived because as soon as I realized that they didn't show us the body burn to a crisp, I knew that it couldn't be the real end. I knew that there was something else coming.
And I was right. But I absolutely don't like what Bonnie did. It was stupid and I don't get why she did it and... well, there's that.

Second: When evil!vamp!Alaric got weaker and weaker during his fight with Damon and real!Alaric emerged only to die in Damon's arms... and Damon was all teared up and holding him tight and sobbing "You're not dead, you're not dead!"... the Damon/Alaric shipper in me was all "Yay!"... only to realize that Damon didn't tear up over Alaric but over Elena (when he realized that this had to mean Elena was dying right this instance)! Such a low blow!
I used to be Team Delena (and I still am a little) but that moment I was all... "God, no! How can they do that to me!"

And the rest of the episode... was annoying like hell. And predictable, and dull, and so not what I wanted!
I knew that Elena would become a vampire eventually but I don't think this was done right. I didn't feel anything.
And she chose Stefan! How could she? I don't get it!
And Elena actually met Damon first? And then he compelled her to forget it? I have read tons of fanfics about that and I have to say, they were a thousand times better-written than what we saw now. That scene was supposed to be a flashback, right? Well, let me say this, it was really, really done crappily! Damon looked nothing like Season 1 Damon, nor did Elena, and Damon behaved totally not like he would have done back then. It was soooo poorly done, completely unconvincing!
And now we're supposed to believe that Elena, once she remembers that (because she will when she's become a vampire), will wonder if her love for Stefan was nothing but the result of Damon's compulsion, right? Elen's supposed to start doubting her love for Stefan, that's what I got from all this, and it's just so.... blah, lame!

Huh, guessing by my rant just now I'm more emotionally invested than I thought, right? Still, I'm not sure I wanna watch this show any longer.

I guess I'm over it.
