YEY FOR GIRLY POSTS!

Am I an uber dork for giggling like a little girl when I read a book? Simply because I got to the part where the girl gets the guy or when something really really adorable happens and I just want to hug the book and wish it could happen to me? It happens with all the books I read. I start giggling and smiling like an idiot. I start falling in love with the most impractical guys, too. The ones I read about. Jane Austen has the effect on me, too. I know we all have swooned over Mr. Darcy or Mr. Bingly at one point. I actually swooned more over Mr. Tilney. He's from Northanger Abbey. Her books and even the movies based on the books make me giddy. And yes, this pretty much qualifies me as either A) a creepster who reads to much OR B) stereotypical girl. Not exactly sure I like either of those options. I do read too much though. My eyes really start to hurt cause I tend to read a book in a day without putting it down unless I'm hungry. All girls are allowed to fall in love with a fake person right? That has to be one of the points they made in the Woman's Rights Movement. Videogame characters, movies...anime characters...., you know those characters when you know their about to do or say something amazing your prepared. I start smiling all over again when that happens to me. I have to admit though. Its really embarissing when I'm watching a movie. My brother might see and never lay off about it. I try to keep a straight face during chick flicks.

And so it beigns...

I'm not all that great at posting blogs, or in fact, anything noteworthy on the Internet. I usually get brain blocked and start staring at the computer screen for long minutes just typing and retyping just to erase it all for the 14th time. That doesn't make me special; I bet everyone has those moments. Especially when you have to sit down and write a five page paper, remember those? You're torn between not wanting to write it at all and knowing you have to anyway. So, it ends up that it's the night before and you still haven't written anything, let alone the grade A literary piece your teacher is expecting. It doesn't help if your a perfectionist either. It's a curse. You're stuck even longer at the screen simply because the words don't sound right together and so you force yourself to correct a problem that doesn't really need to be fixed in order to pass the English coarse. But, some can argue that its a blessing too. I mean, you'll probably gain a better grade because the paper reads smoother and everyone will be slightly more impressed with your word ethic. But when it's already 12 at night and your eyes are starting to bulge out from lack of sleep, you're not exactly happy. Perfectionism isn't all that bad though. I know I'm sounding cynical in this piece. But Its true. Perfectionism really wouldn't be that bad if you had given yourself time to write the paper in the first place. Then that feeling of pure agony as you sit there pulling your hair out strand by strand would disappear. Possibly. There's always that temptation, lurking in the depth of the internet... Check facebook...I bet you have a notification...You did two seconds ago...maybe you have another one... Or...Oh, that youtube video looked really cool... ACK! He can sing Jasmine AND Aladin! Yep, those distractions. They are tempting. I visit them a lot. Especially when I have to write my papers. I admit to being a compulsive facebooker and youtube video watcher. And hey, that video of nick Pitera singing, IS amazing. I'm just glad summer is here for most of us. We get to face a new problem: Boredom. I never thought I would love having nothing to do. And know what's sad? I think I check facebook less now that I have nothing to procrastinate...
