Movies and occurring thoughts.

      We all have seen the one perfect movie that we want to compare our life to. I'm forever wishing my life was as perfect as theirs. Well, apart from the horror films. There's nothing I would dread more than everyone being "Zombies" or being haunted by the ghost, even the grudge.
      I am forever acting like a child, running thoughts and situations that may never happen but I am forever hoping that one day they will.
       Currently I am hoping that my life magically turns into something along the lines of Peter Pan or even The Princess Diaries. Having no worries about growing older in the future and making silly choices seems simply bliss. Neverland, in my eyes, seems like paradise. The place where you can do what you want, when you want. However, Having a life like The Princess Diaries seems even more convenient and amusing. Imagine finding that one relative you never even knew to be the queen of an island. I'm sure all of you would agree with me in thinking the first thing I would do is build either a fort or have the cook make you the most finest of feasts just for one. Then having someone cut your hair into the best possible stylish cut with sleek colour. Imagine waking up in the massive bed that you would have and the first thing you see is the range of elegant clothing and selection of shoes near your wardrobe.
       I know, I dream to much and my thoughts get carried away. Haven't you ever noticed that in movies they always look perfect without even trying their hardest. It's almost like they get out of bed ready to go on the runway in just their Pajamas. I look like I've just had an electric shock because of the way my hair stands on end. - The dreaded bed hair. I know they have their own makeup artist and hair stylist so they get that; "Perfect just out of bed look with a hint of Goddess on the side." My jealousy is almost too much to handle. I'm sure.. I'm not the only one saying that I envy some of their looks. We all know that one celebrity that you just want to be for a day. In my case it would either be: Megan Fox or Cameron Diaz. They are both perfect. I can't begin to imagine what their day to day life would be like.
        This may sound stupid and almost seems a bit fangirlish, however I'm almost certain that there is someone you are thinking of right now that you would like to be even just for the day.

Life and imagery. - My point of view as a 16 year old.

     Well, life as a 16 year old you would think is just like the movies, out all night with friends partying, drinking, sleeping.. anything but studying/work/exams. You're wrong. It's the complete opposite in some cases - Unless you are one of those people who gets invited to every party going, but some aren't that lucky. - The stress from exams takes over any form of social life you have and eats away at your so called "Social skills." Until you are one of the nerds cooped up in your room constantly battling your keyboard to get all your homework or course work in on the deadline.
     However the things you learn are vital for the "Future you" and  "The Future you" will hopefully be as determined as you think you are now. You have to get into the rhythm of fighting for a steady well paying job until you find one that you actually enjoy, or even just a part time one so you can earn a reasonable amount of money to buy things that you may not need but defiantly want, without the pain and dread of disappointing your family. I know, most of us have been there and not felt good enough. Sometimes you just have to go ahead with things and fight for what you think you may enjoy.
     In my case, taking Performing arts, stage management, Law and the Airline courses at college. - I may not be able to choose all of them but I can't make my mind up at the moment. - Obviously, my mother does not approve of what I enjoy, however I am determined and have my mind set on proving her wrong. Even thinking about it makes me want to curl up in a ball and hide forever. My mother is always, always right. By her thinking something won't be good for me, I find the challenge acceptable until I mix things up and she uses the line nobody ever wants to hear "I told you so and did you listen to me?" "No, of course I didn't listen to you because I wanted to be the one to prove you wrong." I would never usually say that but the thought of it always runs around my head. - The reason why I wouldn't say that.. is because I don't like the thought of causing a whole family argument. Yes, a whole family argument. When something happens in our household everyone enjoys the good, old banter and argument. - But, there are the odd occasions I do prove her wrong. - Normally it's something to do with camping when she can't put up the tent. - (Just so you know my mum can be pretty awesome when she would like to be, normally in front of my friends)
     I know for a fact I'm not the only one this happens to. The challenge of fighting a war against your parents to do what you want to do is never ending. But once you show them that you want to learn new things for yourself without the thought of "Messing up."
     Relaxing into the routine of doing things for yourself and making your mistakes for yourself actually sounds quite good to me. The thought of getting up out of bed in your own flat. Eating your own food. Going in your own car to your job. That sounds a bit stupid to you but the thought makes my heart skip.

Blogs

So the thought of making my own blog seemed like extra work or even more homework that I have stacked by my bed. - The thoughts of doing it makes my mind want to shrivel up and die. Surprisingly now that we are the older ones in the school the teachers have laid off a bit. - So, I took time to make my own blog and vent the unknown feelings and opinions even I never knew I had. So pretty much I will be writing about what I enjoy, hate and other situations you may have come across. So, yeah. Enjoy.
