Long Rant: Genre

Genre:
gen·re 
Noun
A category of artistic composition, as in music or literature, characterized by similarities in form, style, or subject matter.
Synonyms
style - type - kind - sort - manner - genus

Genre. When we talk about genre, most of the time, we think of music, a group of people, a type or category, etc. Examples of genres when it comes to music are pop, punk, pop punk, rock, alternative rock, jazz, blues, rhythm and blues (r'n'b), hip hop, classical, etc.

Like music, people are separated into different groups based on their personality and what they are as a person; but the problem here, is why do people like pushing away or why do they like dumping (Thanks Meg and Miki) people for trying to be in their group or liking the same thing they do? I mean, I'm not being a hypocrite or something, but I've always wondered. 

To be honest here, when I like something, I don't want most people knowing about it because most of them just rip it off and I end up disliking it, but still, WHY? Gets me all the time. 

I'm actually a fangirl, if I must say so myself, but I've been into one of those times when I join a certain fandom and people just won't accept me and think that they're better than me or every single one of us Just because They were there first. I mean, what's wrong with supporting something with all your heart with other people as a group? We're all just here to support, right? So, what if for example someone was born earlier than you, and they got to taste pizza before you did, does that mean you aren't allowed to eat or taste pizza anymore?

It's so funny because this post reminds me of "Mean Girls". 

There are the freshmen, ROTC guys, preps, JV jocks, Asian nerds, cool Asians, Varsity jocks, unfriendly black hotties, girls who eat their feelings, girls who don't eat anything, desperate wannabees, burnouts, sexually active band geeks, the art freaks, and the Plastics. Purpose of these groups: You get to choose where you wanna be and where you think you fit in. So what's the point of these groups if we're all just gonna push each other away? 

Just what I thought.

We need to learn how to accept each other, because how can we find unity when there is no unity between us? How can we be one when we're all just pushing each other away? What's the point? 


"All men are created equal, It is only men themselves who place themselves above equality."

Always keep that in thought.

Long Rant: Beautiful

Am I beautiful? 

YES YOU ARE.


I ask myself the same question nearly everyday. Am I beautiful? Am I too fat? Is my hair to frizzy? It's my teeth isn't it? Maybe it's because my nose is hideous? Or maybe it's because my skin is ugly. I'm sure all of you have at least said something like that before. 


"True beauty lies within", but it is the outside that most people look at first. This is why we are conscious about ourselves and how we look, it's because we want people to like us.


But if ever you do ask yourself if you are pretty, YOU ARE. Sometimes, it's not always that outside that counts, it's what you see or have in the inside. I know this is a bit cliche-ish, but it's true. 


Remember, with an ugly personality and dull mind, you won't go anywhere. You'll just always be that person stuck in the day dream.


Some people don't like being called pretty or ugly because of 2 reasons. One, they don't like being called ugly because only they themselves can call themselves ugly, but there is no point if you call them ugly because it's not like they can't already see it in their and your point of view; two, they also don't like being called pretty because otherwise, most of them just think it is a false statement or a lie you pull up just to make fun of them.


The problem with some people is that they're to scared to believe that they are pretty because they don't want people to call them self-centered and "too full" about themselves. that is where people are wrong. There is nothing wrong about wanting to feel good about yourself. It is a fact, not an opinion, but the wrong thing with people, is that they think they are "too" pretty for everyone, and that is where we start feeling ugly or bad about ourselves.


If you tell a person that they are gorgeous, they won't believe it. No matter how many people do tell you them that they are, they still wont. Let one person tell them they're ugly, and that's it, they'll carry it 'til the end. 


Some people focus more on the negative side rather than the positive side, and that is what we need to change. We can't always depend on that. We are much better than that.


It doesn't matter which race, what color, and what kind or type of hair you have.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, DON'T LET ANYONE CHANGE THAT. 


EVERYTHING HAS IT'S OWN BEAUTY, BUT NOT EVERYONE SEES IT. -Confucius


Show people that you are not what they think they are. Who cares about what they think?! BE YOU, Because only you can make a label and name for yourself. Be what you wanna be, and feel beautiful, even once in a while.

Long Rant: Friendship


First rule in friendship: Never trust too easily, most them just leave you behind, and if you have new friends, don't forget about the old ones. Always remember the saying, "Meet new friends and keep the old, one is silver and the other gold."
Second rule in friendship: Be prepared. Some just come and go, change is inevitable.
Third rule: Be true and the best and great friend you can be.

To be frank, I'm one of those people who are afraid of losing friends. One minute they'll say they will never change, the next minute they have new friends, they're ranting about you, and then bam. In the blink of an eye, done. It's over, once it's ruined, it can never be the same again.
I'm one of those people who never actually leave people behind. It's just that they choose to make me their second choice or option, and once their first option is gone, that's when they notice my importance. That's when they say they need me. And if ever you experience the same, just tell them what you really feel. Don't let yourself be a second option, because you're much more important and better than that. Know who your real friends are, don't pretend like everything's fine when it's not.

Another thing I want you to know, be prepared, because high school is like the maze in Harry Potter during "Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire". The maze changes people. Goes the same to high school. Again, change is inevitable. There's nothing we can do about it, but we have a choice. A choice to make ourselves feel happy and not suiting up to everyone else's expectations of what they want us to be, because then, you'd just be sad inside and outside.

"You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth, thinking about how you'll escape it one day. And how awesome it will be, and imaging that future keeps you going, but you never do it. You just use the future to escape the present." 


-John Green, Looking for Alaska

Do what you need to do when you still have the time, don't always depend on tomorrow, because if you always do, there's nothing to look forward for tomorrow.

Here in the end, let me just say, "Choose your friends wisely.". People say you can't choose your friends, but you can. Learn trust. Be prepared for change. Be the best you can. Also learn in friendship, that everyone is equal. You should learn how to be sensitive.

I'm done. You may now move on with your lives.

Long Rant: Judgements and Bullying

(Don't comment if you don't have anything nice to say.)

Just to be honest. Most people disgust me. They disgust me because of their attitude. The way some judge others easily through their appearance. They're so insensitive when it comes to such times. 


Truth is, people like judging most people based on how they look like and how they act without even knowing, WHY. Why they're like this, why they look like this, why they act like this, W H Y. To be completely honest, I have such a long list that I don't even know where to start and how I'm gonna start this list of mine and what I wanna say because I REALLY just wanna say SO much. The only topic I wanna start with for now is bullying.

People like to use other people's flaws against them, as IF they don't already see it. And they like bullying and teasing people because they think it's just nothing and see the fun out of it. What if that girl or boy you just teased about having so many scars actually self-harmed? What if the girl you just accused of being overweight had to starve herself every night because she's just so tired of all the judgments and she just wanted to get all of this over with. It all starts with this. Cyber bullying, Verbal bullying, physical bullying, whatever it is between both, it's STILL bullying. It starts with bullying, it then leads to depression, and then it may just lead to suicide. Another thing is, WHY do people have to judge other people if ever they committed suicide, or attempted, or if they ever had suicidal thoughts? People like those, disgust me.

WHY must you judge a person if ever they wanted to die? Why must you judge them if they wanted to leave a world where they are unhappy? Why must you rant about how stupid it is that they choose suicide as the only option left? What if that person was going through SO MUCH. Yet they still choose to smile and make other people happy because they don't want them to end up like the person they are now. You'd think it's stupid and immature, and you'd think of how dumb that person must be.

What if you were in their shoes? How can you judge someone without even going through everything they already have without even knowing it? I really wanna say so much, but it's like I have this feeling in me that I just wanna say SO much, that I don't know what to say anymore. I don't even know anymore.

If ever you did read this, I hope I didn't waste your time. And if ever you are one of these people who go through a lot everyday, I just want you to know that I don't know if everything really is gonna be alright. But you have choice, and you can choose to make it better. I also want you to know, that if you feel down or if ever you feel like no one loves you, remember that no matter how old or different you are, there will ALWAYS still be that one person who will never ever give up on you. 

I'm done. You may now move on with your life.
