Melanie Martinez Should Never Change Her Brand
So if you don’t know Melanie Martinez, she’s a singer/song writer who really launch into the mainstream after her 2012 appearance on The Voice. She didn’t win, the good ones never do, but she did catch many people’s attention with her interesting look. Her hair is split right down the middle with one half bleached and one half black, she wore very preppy clothes, and topped the look off with a giant bow. 
Tumblr media
Fast forward 7 years later and she has solidified her brand. She’s Cry Baby, a kid at heart with morbid ways of expressing herself. She traded in her preppy attire for what I would describe as puffy, frilly, and pink. Majority of her songs focus on some element of childhood, and she uses this as a lens to express her feelings in her adult life. Nothing better represents Martinez’s brand than her most recent album, K-12.
Tumblr media
So the premise of K-12 is Martinez going through each grade level of school starting with kindergarten all the way to senior year of high school. Each song focuses on some element of school life starting with the first song titled Wheels on The Bus. I can only give my personal interpretation for all of these songs, but I'm sure it won’t be too far off from the general consensus. This song is a play on the classic nursery rhyme of the same name and it’s about children being left up to their own devices when the adults aren’t paying attention. This song is very upbeat and lighthearted vocally and instrumentally, but lyrically it’s a bit more mischievous (couldn’t think of the right word so that will have to do). With lyrics like “Now, I'ma light it up and pass it Puff‚ puff and pass it Don't be a dick and babysit, c'mon, just pass it over here” it reminds me of the side of growing up that the parents like to imagine doesn’t happen. The part where you get high with your friends in the school bathroom, or hookup with the kid who sits next to you just because he’s kinda cute. It happens all the time, but parents like to pretend their child is the exception. They are not. 7.8 out of 10.
Tumblr media
Class Fight is up next. The song is about two girls fighting over the affections of some boy. There is a common theme that pops up in some of Melanie’s songs, and that is that her parents are awful. This song is no different. During this fight her dad is encouraging a hesitant Martinez to “go for the throat”. I can’t relate to this song in particular but I’m sure someone somewhere can. It’s less than three minutes long but it’s way too repetitive for me, in fact I just looked it up and the phrase “for the throat” came up 38 times. This song is usually one I skip. 6.5 out of 10.
Her next song is titled The Principal and its about a power hungry man who does not care about those he was suppose to protect. In the song she talks a bit about the state of the US with the opioid epidemic and the constant school shootings in the line “Killing kids all day and night, prescription pills and online fights”. In hindsight I should have already known this, but the song is about our president Donald Middle Name That I’m Forgetting Trump. This song was in my top 3 on the album before I even knew it was about Trump, and now I hear it from a different perspective. She’s frustrated and truly angry with this man, and she feels left behind. The post-chorus is just Martinez calling out asking where’s the principal. I never got that part before but now I have a whole new appreciation for this song. 8.2 out of 10.
Show and Tell is the next song and it has the interesting beat. It feels like a slow grandfather clock ticking. While I'm at it I might as well mention that I love the little effects she adds in backgrounds of her songs, like dogs growling, or kids cheering, it’s a nice touch. Okay back to Show and Tell. This song focuses on Martinez struggle with the constant spotlight that is on her, and how the paparazzi can make her feel like an object that is meant to be observed and toyed with. I love the beat on this song, it makes me feel like something is creeping up on me, I always expect some kind of beat drop but it never really comes. 7.9 out of 10.
Nurse’s Office  is the one song off the album that perfectly describes what my middle school experience was like. In the song Martinez wants to avoid the hell that is school by faking an illness and getting sent to the nurse’s office. It reminds me of all those uncomfortable years we all went through growing up. I remember faking a stomachache and going to the nurse’s office during gym class just to sit alone on a mat for 40 minutes and scroll through my phone. The feeling is real and this song captures it. This song sounds the way Alice and Wonderland looks and feels, there is no better way to describe it than that but hopefully when you listen to it you’ll know what I mean. 8.8 out of 10.
Tumblr media
Do you remember all the bullshit you had to pretend to care about in middle school? Like when Stacy told Erica that Bethany wasn’t her friend anymore and omg how dare she do that? Or when someone makes fun of your socks for being too colorful, or calls you an attention whore for dying your hair red?  That’s what Drama Club is about, it’s about how words get misconstrued, things get blown up out of proportion, and if you don’t follow the script of life perfectly you asking for drama. Drama in middle school felt like the end of the world especially because half the time you couldn’t tell what even started it. It was tiring, it was senseless, it was frustrating, and I hate to admit but it was painful, and all on that comes through in the vocals. Thank fucking god  we outgrow that all that stuff. 8 out of 10.
Strawberry Shortcake talks about the pressure many girls feel when they are growing into their bodies. People stare, comment, compare, judge, grab, and hurt young girls all the time and blame them for being too tempting. I heard it from my own mother all the time growing up, she told me going out in cutoff shorts is why men will take advantage of me. In the lines “It's my fault, it's my fault 'cause I put icing on top Now, the boys want a taste of the strawberry shortcake That's my bad, that's my bad, no one told them not to grab” Melanie takes on an apologetic tone when talking about her own body. It is only towards the end of the song when she takes on a more confident tone and claims her body for her self. 8.1 out of 10.
Tumblr media
The 8th song on the album is a short little song titled Lunchbox Friends. The song’s about fake/temporary friends that only want you around when it’s convenient. I love the chorus in this one because her voice was altered to be a lower and slightly distorted pitch. There’s not much to say about this song but it is remarkable high on my ranking for this album, 8.6 out of 10.
Orange Juice covers the very serious topic of eating disorders and uses orange juice as a metaphor for bulimia. The vocals are very soothing and the instrumentals relaxing. The song is gentle, and the lyrics are of Martinez trying to comfort a friend that is currently suffering from an eating disorder. It’s a powerful song without needing all the force or heavy beats from a traditional empowerment song. 8.5 out of 10. 
Detention is the one song off the album I always skip. The beat is almost tropical and the lyrics don’t have as focused of a message as the rest of the songs. It’s similar to Show and Tell in messaging,  it’s about dealing with fame and having to be on your best behavior to satisfy other people. But it’s always been the song I could do without. 5 out of 10.
Teacher’s Pet on the other hand is a song I have never skipped when it came up on shuffle. The song’s about a student-teacher affair, and how the student has to grapple with the fact that the relationship is wrong on paper but hiding the relationship makes her feel like a dirty secret. Melanie’s voice is sultry and the beat lurking and intimidating. This song doesn’t hit close to home for a lot of people but it does a great job placing you in the students shoes. 9 out of 10
High School Sweethearts is not only my absolute favorite song off the album but it’s one of my favorite songs ever. The beat and vocals starts very slow and romantic until they pick up pace as the song goes on and it becomes more more bouncy. Melanie is asking her sweetheart to treat her right in her own special and dark way. One line that sums this up best is “Step six If you can't put in work, I don't know what you think this fucking is Step seven, this one goes to eleven If you cheat, you will die, die”. It’s a fun song, it’s a sweet song (kinda), and I’m obsessed with it. 9.99 out of 10. 
Tumblr media
We made it. The final song is call Recess. The song reminds me of what would play at end of a movie after the happy ending and when the credits are rolling. The song is about prioritizing yourself and your happiness and not letting others take advantage of you. It’s the perfect ending to the album and it’s a neat little song. 8 out of 10.

Tumblr media
You sat in your living room with your bestfriend Richie. He was babbling on about some stupid fight he got into with some dude at the arcade the other day who was from the town over. Your focus was more on to the t.v. show playing in front of you, seeing as Richie gets mouthy with everybody and this is not an uncommon occurrence. But when Richie started snapping his fingers in your face your attention was immediately brought to him. 
“Are you even listening to me (Y\N)” You turn off the t.v. and turn to the trashmouth. “Sorry Rich” He laughs and continues his story. Your mind gets distracted again, this time by Richie’s leisurely appearance on your couch. His sweatpants hanging low off his hips showing off the band of his underwear, no shirt hanging from his shoulders. His beautiful dark brown curls all messy from waking up only about an hour ago, no glasses yet. The gorgeous sight,to say the least, was something you wouldn’t mind seeing every morning. You were pulled back into reality by the words “Just pretend to be my date” that had so happen to fall out of Richie’s mouth. Shocked, your eyes widened.
“Excuse you” 
“Oh come one (Y\N) it will be fun. All we have to do is show up for like ten minutes, I’ll flaunt you around a bit and we can be on our way.” You began to grow nervous. To say that you had a crush on Richie would be an understatement. You had only told your other bestfriend Ben Hanscom, but no doubt the other losers knew about it by now. Hell, you wouldn’t be surprised if even Richie himself knew. Thinking about what he had just said made you snap at him.
“I’m not some piece of meat to be flaunted around Richie!” 
“Right sorry, no not at all, but please please (Y\N). You don’t have to wear anything fancy, its just crashing some stupid highschool dance.” You looked into Richie’s hopeful eyes and caved in. Damn were you a sucker for those eyes.
“Fine.” You let out a sigh. Richie jumped out of his seat hugging you. 
“Thank you so much!” You pushed him off of you, the sudden gesture startling you. 
“On one condition-” You raised an eyebrow and held up your index finger.
“Ok what” 
“You let me pick what you wear” The trashmouth houghed and rolled his eyes, but to hell if you weren’t gonna have your fun with this too. 
“Fine ok you can pick out my clothes” You smile satisfied as Richie laughs at your childish grin thinking to himself ‘That smile fucking kills me. Damn Tozier you are so fricken whipped.’ Truth be told the boy was head over heals for his bestfriend, and there was nothing he wouldn’t do to see that amazing smile that sends an unshakable feeling of happiness from the pit of his stomach, across her face.
                                          *****      ******     *****
   It was the day of the dance and you were just about to go shopping to find Richie’s outfit, when the phone rang. You heard your mom answer it so you continued to get clothes for the day. That was quickly interrupted by your mom yelling up to you 
“Honey, its for you!” You quickly walk over to the phone in your room. 
“Hello?” You hold the phone against your shoulder with the side of your face,
“How’s it going beautiful?” Your girlfriends voice graced your ears  as you were looking for a nice sweater to wear. 
“Just looking for something to wear. what about you sweets?” A few months ago you were starting to feel lonely and hopeless about ever being with Richie. That’s when Elaine, more known as Lainey, came into the picture. You met at a dinner and she asked if she could buy you a shake. Why the hell not right? A pretty girl wants to buy you a drink, you flattered. You see you weren’t really sure if you were bisexual or not, but it was something you had seriously questioned on numerous occasions so it couldn’t hurt to figure it out. You still weren’t quite sure and you didn’t know if it was because you just weren’t or because you were to in love with Richie to feel that way about Lainey. Either way you knew you had to break it off with her and probably soon, she was a nice girl and you didn’t want to end up leading her on. 
“Nothing I’m super bored and was wondering if you wanted to hang out today.” 
“Ya sure I was just gonna go shopping.”
“Oh cool I’ll meet you where?”
“Why don’t you just pick me up.” 
“Ok I’ll see ya later” You said bye and hung up the phone. You already had in mind what you wanted to get Richie and you thought it would be fairly easy to find. When you were finished getting dressed you ran down stairs and put on your Doc Martins then headed out side, Lainey’s car was right where it usually was.
                                          *****        *****         *****
    When you got home you fell onto the couch letting out a huge sigh. The shopping part of the trip was successful, You got exactly what you needed. Everything else went down hill. When you had gotten to the store and Lainey had asked what you were here for you had totally blanked on the fact that you told her absolutely nothing about the deal with Richie. You weren’t sure what her reaction would be, but you had it would be a good one. It wasn’t. She ended up yelling at you, saying that it was cheating and that you couldn’t go. You being the stubborn ass that hated being told what to do, told her that, that was bullshit and you were going anyway. She didn’t like that very much. So she decided to walk out shouting “Don’t even think about fucking calling me!” and drove away leaving you to walk home. After a few minutes you heard Richie come in. 
“What’s up hot stuff?” You simply through the bag of clothes at him.
“Shopping go well?” You huffed
“I’m gonna take that as a no.” Richie headed to the bathroom to change. The subject was thankfully avoided when Richie shouted for the bathroom right across from where you lay on the couch. 
“Are these girls jeans!?” Your mind shifted from the happenings at the mall and you burst out laughing. He walked out grabbing at his crotch 
“My wang can’t fucking breathe in these damn jeans (Y\N) my balls feel like they are being shoved back up!!” You fell of the couch laughing. Once you compose yourself you look up at Richie standing there. No shirt, just like this morning, the jeans were unbuttoned and unzipped, the sight was nothing short of amazing. You couldn’t help but bite your lip, your cheeks turning pink.
“Enjoying the view sexy?” You snap your eyes to the floor. 
“In your dreams Tozier” 
“Every night baby. Now come help me take these off” You gulped ‘Oh if only Richie’ You thought to your self and then proceeded to mentally slap yourself for the thought. You heard a chuckle escape from his lips ‘Oh shit can he tell how nervous I am’ You were usually calm and witty, like Richie, but just the way he looked had you all flustered. When you gut the jeans off you had immediately look away afraid of what your mind would do.
“There is a large size in the bag just incase these didn’t fit, but I would put the shirt on first so its easier to tuck in.” You told him folding the jeans and putting them on the dinning room table. After a minute Richie came out (of the closet ;) ;) ) and found you not in the living room. He ventured through the open threshold of the living room into the dining room which lead to the kitchen where he had found you. You turned around from the window to find a very handsome looking Richie dressed in a black button down tucked into a pair of black tight fitting women’s jeans, which he looked rather nice in.
“Well look at you dapper Dan.” You say walking up to him, looking him up and down. He laughed at you remark. 
“These fit much better, but my balls and dick will still be screaming by the end of tonight.
“Come on lets go watch a movie or two before we go.” He put an arm around you leading you to the living room. 
“Or we could do other things.” Richie hints at being the trashmouth that he is. You roll your eyes and pick out a movie.
Halfway through the second movie you decide to get up and get changed. You walk upstairs and down the hall to your room. You turned on a cd to listen to while getting dressed. You put on something kinda fancy, but not to fancy that you wouldn’t wear it causally. You had already put on some make up this morning but you decided to touch it up a bit and put on some lipstick. You walked down stairs and Richie’s eyes were glued to your presence. 
“Well damn (Y\N\N) I think my jeans are getting tight.” You slap him upside the head. 
“Quit being such a perv Tozier.” 
He rubs the back of his head laughing. As you were putting on your shoes Richie couldn’t take his eyes off you. He truly thought you looked breathtaking, and he was kicking himself that this wasn’t a real date. ‘If only’ he thought.
                                           *****     *****    *****
     When you got to the dance you just about snuck in without being caught. The large gymnasium was filled with teenagers, some bored sitting at their table, but there was a lot of kids who looked like they were having fun. You were walking around aimlessly till Richie found who he was looking for. 
“Well looked who actually showed up.” 
Richie introduced you to the guy he fought with at the arcade, apparently about whether or not he could get a girl. The boy who appeared with blonde hair and grey eyes look at you and said
“Blink twice if he is holding you hostage.“
You just laughed, not being very good at social situations. 
“I assure you she is here at her own free will. I mean who could resist this.” Richie then put an arm your waist and rested his hand on your hip. You felt a slight blush creep up leaving a pink tint to your cheeks, one of which you prayed to God Richie didn’t see. 
You spent the next twenty minutes or so conversing with that dude and his friends none of which you bother to remember the names of, mostly because you were barely even involved in the conversation much to you liking seeing as your social anxiety never takes a fucking rest.
“I’m gonna get a drink, (Y\N) do you want anything?” Richie turned to you and asked. You shook your head no and continued to play with your bracelet you always wear. Richie saw the nervous tick that he had noticed on multiple occasions that you do in social situations like this. He put his hand on your shoulder rubbing his thumb against it, and when you looked back up at him, he gave you a little smile which you returned. You look back to your hand fidgeting with your bracelet. When you looked back over to Richie he was so obviously flirting with some redhead. Your hand went to your hair as you tucked a piece behind your ear. You’ve always wanted to e a redhead. You smiled at the thought of your friend Bev and her beautiful fiery red hair. You wondered for moment if Richie would like you better with red hair. A frown adorned your face as you shake away the thought. ‘Its obvious Richie doesn’t like you and your hair color isn’t and shouldn’t change that (Y\N)’ You scolded yourself internally. Soon Richie came back to the table with his drink and a smirk. You shook your head and shot him a disapproving glare which he returned with a smile.
    A slow song to which you did not know the name of was now playing through out the gymnasium. Richie looked over to you, a gleam of what seemed like hopefulness in his eye and asked,
“Do you want to dance?”
You were shocked at first, but obliged none the less. He led you to the dancefloor with a hand at the small of your back, sending shivers up your spine. You made your way to the middle of the dance floor, Richie placed his hands on your hips and your arms rested around his neck. It was nice, for a minute it had felt like you and Richie were the only people there, just talking and laughing a bit. But the boy got self conscious about his strong feeling for the girl he had known for so many years. His mind was so insistent that she would never have feeling for him, that she could do so much better than his sorry ass, never mind the fact that she now had a girlfriend that he has yet to meet. So as a defense, trying so desperately hard to hide his feeling, Richie started checking out other girls. You had noticed the freckled boy suddenly became distracted and only half interested in your conversation. You followed his eyes to the girl in a skin tight dress dancing with some douchey looking guy wearing a letterman jacket. You scoffed, fed up with Richie’s bullshit. You had, had enough and wanted to go home. Involuntarily without any permission from your brain whatsoever, before you even knew you were talking, the sentence “I shouldn’t be in love with you.” had left your mouth with a sour attitude. Richie’s whole body froze when he heard those words. His eyes snapped back to yours in shock. 
“What?” 
Your eyes widened and body tensed as well. You quickly retracted your arms from around Richie’s neck and practically ran out of the school, Richie hot on your trail. When you had gotten outside you were relived to feel the fresh air fill your lungs. The glasses clad boy grabbed your forearm once he caught up. For a person with much shorter legs you could walk pretty fast. Once you turned around to look at Richie you instantly felt suffocated. At that moment your anxiety was on overload and just wished you had never come. 
“Why do you have to be such a dick Richie? You asked me to be your date, albeit pretend date, but that doesn’t change the fact that all you have been doing is flirting and looking at other girls!” You yelled. You heaved out desperate and angry breaths and when Richie just stood there saying nothing you continued to rant.
  “You are the only boy I’ve been able to think about since we were fucking twelve, Richie, TWELVE!!! How have you not noticed that I am so damn in love with you, Richie Tozier. Even with fucking Coke bottle glasses you’re still blind as shit!” You both chuckled at that last statement. You sighed heavily. Richie didn’t quite know what to say and he was internally yelling at himself for not being able to say or do anything. You continued to look at him with sad eyes as he stood there silent with a look on his face you couldn’t quite read. You looked down at the ground, defeated.  
“Alright well if your just gonna stand there and say nothing I’m calling a cab home.” You turn back toward the school building at the brink of tears, feeling your heart break. 
For the first time since they had gotten out side, Richie had finally said something. And boy did he could have said something else, anything else at all, but the boy was left to deride himself as the first thing he said was,
“No, I’ll take you home.” It was quite and sounded almost broken as it came out of his mouth. You huffed, your heart officially shattering as tears welled in your eyes. Oh how he had hoped he would’ve said something different. 
“If you don’t mind I would just rather be alone right now.” Your voice came out low sounding almost betrayed.
Richie didn’t like the thought of you taking a cab alone. Although he knew you could handle yourself, he couldn’t stand the thought of leaving you alone with some smug creepy ass middle aged dude. So he handed you his keys.
“Here you take my car, I’ll take a cab.” You obliged just wanting to get out of there. You drove home with tears in your eyes craving the sweet comfort of your bed. When you finally got home, after what felt like forever you went straight to your room got into some sweatpants and a sweatshirt and just went to sleep.
                             *****                *****                 *****            
You hadn’t talked to Richie since yesterday. It was currently late, around 12 or so and you were sat in your room on the phone with Bev, talking bout various things, but mostly Richie and the happenings of the dance. You suddenly heard taps at your bedroom window. 
“I think somebody is throwing things at my window hang on a sec Bev.” The girl on the other side of the phone let out a laugh, knowing full well that it was Richie, having overheard a conversation between him, Bill, and Eddie. She sat patiently on the other side of the phone hoping you wouldn’t hang up and she could hear the encounter with the boy you were currently fucking pissed at, according to your own words. You made it over to the window and pushed aside the curtain to have another pebble hit the window and startle you. You opened the window and looked down to find none other than Richie Tozier. 
“What the hell Richie!” 
“Let me in we need to talk” 
Before you could kindly tell him to fuck off he was already making his way to the other side of the house for you to open the front door. You ground and picked up the phone that was on your bed. 
“It’s Richie I’ll call you tomorrow.” 
                                      *meanwhile at Bev’s*
“She hung up” Bev said turning to Stan, Mike, Bill, and Ben. Eddie not present because of his mother. The boys all muttered various things along the lines of dammit and shit. 
                                   **************
You opened the door with a disgruntled look on your face. 
“It’s midnight Richie, what do you want?”
“Can I come in?” Richie asked. You gave him a questioning look unsure if you even wanted him here. 
“Look (Y\N) I really need to talk to you please let me in.” He pleaded. You sighed and let him in. The both of you went towards the living room and took a seat on the couch. Richie was reluctant to start, afraid he might say something wrong and mess things up even more. He took a deep breath and said to himself fuck it, its now or never. 
“Those things you said yesterday… did you mean them?”
You looked up at him and nodded. “Yeah I did.”
An awkward silence fell as Richie thought about what to say next. Trying to delay the inevitable of saying sorry and the fear that you for some reason wouldn’t except his apology he asks about her, what he though, current relationship. “What about Lainey?“ 
This question just made you further upset and sent your mind in a spiral of bad endings for you and your bestfriend Richie Tozier. 
“She didn’t like dogs. It wasn’t gonna work out. Now are you gonna apologize or not.” You snapped at him not wanting to talk about Lainey and the real reason you guys broke up. All for that stupid dance. 
“Look (Y\N) I am so sorry for what I did. I treated you like shit, and you are the last person to deserve that.” He sighed and looked into (y\e\c) eyes trying to find the pull he needed to quite being a pussy. 
“The truth is I’m so in love with you it’s not even funny. I was only doing those things because I didn’t think you felt the same way. It was all supposed to be a distraction, I never meant to hurt you.” Richie pulled up his glasses and looked at you waiting for a response. You just stared at him, which scared the boy even more than words. You couldn’t think of anything else to do but bring your hand to his cheek and pull him closer until the gap between your lips was no more. He was shocked at first but kissed back. You two pulled away only for a second before connecting your lips once again, passion running through the both of your veins like a power surge. When you pulled away the second time you took a minute to look in each other eyes before Richie broke the silence. 
“Can I have my car keys back now, hot stuff?” You chuckled and got up and grabbed them off the table. Richie snaked an arm around you and rested his chin on the top of your head. “Hey why don’t we go for a drive?” He offered, knowing how much you love aimless car rides with loud music. 
“Ok”

Is popularity a social disease? It depends. With politicians and such, it can become a disease. A disease that costs us all. Would you want to be a hippie? Yes!!! I’m really open-minded and I love reggae and different colours...I’ve thought about retreating into the hippie lifestyle before, not gonna lie... In college, were you ever given exams with extremely broad and deep questions such as, 'Why?' or 'What is truth?' I’m in college right now. I had a philosophy class, but I had to withdraw from it, so...yeah... Have you knowingly destroyed an endangered plant or animal? No. Actually, I don’t know which plants are endangered, so maybe unknowingly for plants... Did your parents bronze your first pair of baby shoes? I have no clue. Do you check for a train when crossing tracks in your car even though the arms aren't down? I don’t drive. Is there gossip going around about you right now? As always, there’s a bunch of fandom tea. I don’t really pay attention to the drama of people IRL, probably because I prefer to keep my circle small anyway. How many comic strips do you read daily: None (and I CANNOT get into manga.) If you were hiding from a burglar, would you hide in the closet or under the bed? Under the bed would be more logical, but I couldn’t fit under there.  What do you most commonly use milk for: drinking or cooking? Drinking. Who should provide the condoms in a relationship: the man or the woman? The man. His dick, his issue. His responsibility if she gets pregnant, not hers. That’s how an ideal world would work. Are you ever afraid that people hate you and they're just acting like they don't? I mean, it’s true, so, LMAO. When you're crossing the street with other people, do you ever feel a need to get to the other side first? No, I take my time, because I don’t wanna get hit by a car. Should people be able to go to college without a high school diploma if they score high enough on entrance tests? No, it would fuck up your life cycle. You learn a lot about yourself through high school. High school was never about learning about subjects anyway. Would you be embarrassed if people could hear you talking to your pets?

I wear a lot of band t-shirts. I wear a lot of black. I like wearing skirts and dresses with Converse. People at my school often copy my style. I love jeans. I dress the way I want to, I don’t care what anyone thinks about my style. Wearing clothes I like gives me a lot more confidence. I don’t really look to anyone else for style ideas. Category Two: General Appearance Something about my appearance is very unique and distinct. I have more than one birth mark. I have very tanned skin. I tan extremely easily in the summer. I am skinny. But I have curves. I wear glasses. I have my father’s eyes. My self-esteem has been getting much better. People have told me straight up that they are jealous of my body - and it feels good to get compliments like that. I don’t spend a lot of time getting ready - I basically look the way I do when I wake up. Category Three: Annoyances I hate when people are overly cocky and arrogant. I hate when people make assumptions - they’re normally totally off. When I’m standing in line at a cash or something, I hate when people stand practically on top of me. It doesn’t make the line move any faster! I strongly dislike when I get excess lotion or water in between my fingers, and I don’t really understand why. If someone pisses me off enough, I’m not shy to tell them off. If someone is asked to stop doing something more than once, I feel it’s okay to start yelling at them. I hate hypocrites - but I can be a hypocrite myself sometimes. I hate people who act like know-it-alls. And I hate it even more when it’s a subject I know more about than them. I absolutely hate when people try to drag me into their pathetic drama. My number one pet peeve is when someone has too many pet peeves. Category Four: Surveys I find it stupid when people take the tags off surveys, but survey makers who go as far as making a “hate list” for all those who do it are just assholes themselves. I think I may have a serious addiction to surveys… Oh well! If you’re going to insult me directly more than once while taking a survey I made, then don’t even bother taking my survey. In a way I’m a hypocrite for saying that, because if there’s no tag on the survey, then I will call the survey maker an idiot and whatnot, if I seriously feel they are and if I’m in that bad of a mood. (*rolls eyes*) I’d be a millionaire if I got paid to do this! Why do survey makers insist on having a certain number of comments and subscribers before they make another survey? This is for fun, it isn’t a business, and you aren’t making money off of it, so why are you being so anal about communication with your survey-takers? I don’t see the point in lying on surveys. Why take them if you aren’t going to tell the truth? Category Five: Things I Seriously Love Coffee, and caffeine in general. The show Pawn Stars. Feeling good about myself. Encouraging other people to stay positive and be strong. Tattoos and piercings. Anthropology, sociology, and psychology. Making and taking surveys. Dreadlocks. Rain and thunderstorms. Music, of course. Random, interesting facts. Category Six: Music I can play piano. I can play bass. I can sort of play guitar. I listen to music every day. I own at least three instruments. I still buy CDs. I really want to learn to play drums. I wouldn’t mind learning to play the violin as well. Practically everyone in my family can play some sort of instrument. I used to take dance lessons. Category Seven: Photography I own a FujiFilm camera. I take walks so I can take pictures. I have a folder on my computer of pictures I’ve taken. I love taking pictures of fireworks. I also love taking pictures of nature. One of my favorite settings on my camera is macro. I have a blink detector on my camera. My camera takes amazing, bright, vivid photos. I want to make a photo album of pictures that I’ve taken. I wouldn’t mind being a photographer. I don’t know what I would do without my (phone) camera.  Category Eight: Relationships & Friendships I have serious trouble keeping lasting friendships. But I have no trouble keeping a lasting romantic relationship. Those two don’t directly relate to each other - I don’t ditch my friends for my partner, ever. I have been in a relationship for almost two and a half years. It is my first relationship. I have only ever kissed one person. My partner and I have been in a band together. In my opinion, friends are for socializing, not relying on for rough times. I love going out with friends. I have been in a band with all my best friends before. I have been verbally and psychologically abused by friends before. I have punched one of my friends in the face.
