Weather like this sucks. There's no other way to put it. Waking up to the sun behind the clouds just sets the tone for a crappy day. Gosh, I could never live in Alaska where the sun doesn't even rise half the year. People probably think I hate the sun due to my pale and pasty complexion, but that is not the case at all. I'm very fond of sunny days. They fill me with joy, literally.
More and more everyday I feel like I grow apart from the norm. I know that I'm not a normal person by any means and nor do I strive to be one, but then again, what's normal? What so many people don't realize is that WE as humans get to decide what normal is. That's why when ever anyone says something I do is weird, I tell them that I could find 10 other people like me that thought it was weird that YOU are weird for not doing it. It's completely subjective. Yes, I am a minority in a lot of my opinions, beliefs, actions, but different does not equal weird.
Really, I just want to find someone like me. You would think there would be at least one other Straight Edge, Vegetarian, Musician, Nerd, etc., etc. that I could hang out with. And by no means am I saying that I don't like my friends, I love all of them dearly. They all have those traits, just not all of them. Maybe I'm just too picky?
Now, my next point. I hate when people say things like, "Oh, they're just being different to be different." That phrase crushes individuality so bad. IT'S OK TO BE DIFFERENT! I wish the majority of society could get that through their head. We're not robots that need to comply to everything society and pop culture tell us. If you like wearing your underwear on the outside of your pants, go for it. If you think all of the latest fashion trends are stupid, FUCK 'EM. I've seen too many people in my short life just give in to societies social norms. It's bullshit. Individuality is what really makes our lives so interesting.
Frankenstein is the man, and I hope my kid is just like him.
