I hate stereotypes K
Seeing as I honestly
have nothing really at all to talk about, I thought I'd start the post on with
a little rant here. I hate stereotypes. I hate when people look at one thing
and think "That's so emo/hipster/scene/whatever." and then whenever
they see or hear of someone who owns said thing, they instantly judge them. I
also hate when people label themselves emo/hipster/scene/whatever
when they honestly don't know the meaning of the word.
Hipster isn't about
wearing fake glasses and the shortest shorts ever and wearing a top with
"Nirvana" on when you've never even heard of them. The whole point of
"hipster" is being different, taking interest in retro things and not
following the crowd. By saying you're "hipster" you are following
the crowd. It's just stupid. Real hipsters actually know what the meaning of
the word is, and don't take interest in things just because they're meant to be
"hipster" or whatever, and not because they actually like them.
Also, even though
hipsters seem to like them, Wreck this Journal isn't "hipster". It's
anything but. It's a really creative way to pass the time and it's really
theraputic, or whatever you want to call it.
I'm just sick of
people on the internet making assumptions and trying to be what they're not.
ANYWAY, today was
actually pretty boring, apart from when some random 80-year-old or something
woman stopped my nan and I, and started randomly talking to us and saying that I was really lovely or something along those lines. We'd never seen her in our
lives. It was pretty weird. She said she was going dancing in London, and
something about her being on a BBC 2 documentary called "Grannies Moving
In". My nan and I had a laugh about it later, but I've just been looking
on the internet and she's in the early stages of Dementia. I feel so bad now.
We were nice enough to her, but I still feel really sad. At least she's
enjoying herself... stopping random strangers to talk to them.
This is a kind of
mixed and random post, sorry about that. :)
So yep... I don't
really know what to talk about to be honest. I wanted to meet up with Emma on
Sunday but she probably won't be able to, because she has to pack for Florida,
etc. I don't really know what to do with myself at the moment. I'm thinking of
doing some Wreck this Journal, maybe finishing decorating the cover, then
playing The Sims.
Also, yesterday I
changed the blog design to more warmer colours. Do you like it? Can more of you
pleease post in the chat? I get pretty bored, and it's something to look at.
Bye! x x
