Something(s) I feel strongly about

I can only choose one? Pff, that's not happening.

People should not make Jew jokes. I know that that seems entirely random, but it's not. It is completely relevant (at least, to my life). And I hate it when people do that. Especially when I've asked them to stop several times, and then told them to stop several times, and then ignored them several times because of it.

I'm just sayin'.

Girls have the right to fangirl over at least one thing of their choice. And that they should. It is both fun, and when someone else shares your fangirl, you can have a series of fangirl moments (not to mention you'll always have someone to rant to when someone disses your fangirl). So I am pro-fangirl.


ALWAYS admit that you are, or could be, wrong. Especially if it's true. It saves you a lot of embarrassment later. Insisting that you HAVE to be right ALL THE TIME makes you look like an arrogant jerk (in my opinion).


Don't reject people entirely, at least before you have had an adequate conversation with them. You can't  judge people from a distance and get everything right.


NEVER wear stripes and plaid. It just doesn't work. EVen if they're the same color.

Compete against yourself, not the people around you. If you only compete against others, what happens  if and when you get to the top? Do you just stop trying? Is that good enough? And what if you're at 'the bottom'? Does that mean you're worthless? That you can't do anything? Try to know where YOU are, and not pay as much attention to the others.





You know, I could just copy-paste a list of my values. I already put like, three of them there.


1. Always be willing to admit you are, or may be wrong.

2. Listen to people when they're talking to you.
3. Show gratitude.
4. Give people three chances; one to mess up, one to make it up to you, and one to decide the outcome.
5. Be encouraging of the people around you.
6. Spend time with people you want to have or continue having a relationship with.
7. Be careful about the small things, because they can make a large difference.
8. Don't judge people until you've had a real conversation with them and know at least a little of their background.
9. Accuracy first, speed second.
10. Compete against yourself, not the people around you.

5 ways to win my heart


Let's do this.

1.     Be cute.
Not in a Honey-senpai way (search Ouran High School Host Club- he’s like a sort of lolita), but in a physically attractive way. Take care of yourself. Have good hair. Hair is the most important part of physical appearance, so have nice hair.
2.     Have a sense of humor
Very important. If you’re not funny, or can’t take a joke, it’s going to be very hard for me to like you in almost any way.
3.     Be chivalrous
I like being treated like a girl.
4.     Don’t be a bandwagon-er
If you like things just because other people like them, it makes me want to roll my eyes. Have something that is uniquely you; don’t just ‘jump on the bandwagon’ constantly. It is almost guaranteed to make me irritated by almost everything you do from that point on.
5.     Be open-minded
Accept and respect other people’s opinions, and listen to what they have to say. Don’t just blindly reject them.

5 ways to make me utterly disinterested:

1.     Don’t hug me if you don’t know me, and don’t touch my hair.
Personal space, people. Even if you know me pretty well, if you hug me and I never hug back, I obviously don’t want your hug. I’m sorry.
2.     Don’t hate on my music.
What I listen to is part of who I am, so suck it up.
3.     Please, don’t read over my shoulder.
Invasion of privacy. Especially if it’s something that I’m writing. Maybe I don’t want you to read, you don’t know. At the very least, ask me first.
4.     If I ask you to stop doing something, for God’s sakes, stop.
Especially if it’s offensive or inappropriate or the like.
5.     Don’t buy me stuff to try and get on my good side.
That includes food, gift cards, clothes, or anything that can be bought.
If you are already on my good side, This does not apply. Buy me whatever you want (unless it’s offensive, because then I will probably glare at you).
Also does not apply if I ask you to do so.
6.     If I make a joke, don’t stare at me blankly.
I think it’s pretty obvious why.

I know that’s six, but still.
