Child of the 80's

I feel like I was born in the wrong decade. The so-called 90's. Sure, I listened to the Backstreet Boys and Britney's You Drive Me Crazy growing up, like everone else my age. However, I can't think of anything that I particularly liked about that decade. Not a single movie. Not a single song or band. Not a single show. Nada. Zilch. Zero.

When I think about the 80's, a lot of stuff comes into my head. I just don't get why I like movies like Valley Girl, Sixteen Candles, and Pretty in Pink so much. Can you believe that my favorite movie of all time is The Breakfast Club? I mean, my parents probably hadn't even met yet when that movie came out. I guess there's just something about the 80's that makes me like it so much.

And who could forget Air Supply? Sing it with me! I'm all out of love. I'm so lost without you... Okay, I'm getting carried away here. Bottomline: I looooooooooooove the 80's.

It's time to move on to a more serious topic.

College.

I'm excited and frazzled at the same time.

I mean, college is totally different from high school. A lot of kids at my school say that you get to be a whole different person in college. All your achievements and screw-ups back in high school are erased, and you get a clean slate.

I'm excited because I'm going to get to meet a lot of new people (New guys, mostly. I'm so sick of the shallow pea-brained guys at my high schooll. Not kidding.). I'm going to get to experience tons of new things. Everything is going to be different.

But I'm also scared.

Not to blow my own horn or anyting (figuratively speaking), but I've been a nerd eversince fresman year, and I became popular this school year, because of something I can't explain. All the kids know who I am. The teachers adore me.

TO be continued

Psychos and The Covenant

Haaaaaaaaaa. I finally have my own blog... I feel like Carrie Bradshaw right now! Minus the stylish shoes and numerous boyfriends, of course. Girl Interpreted? I know what you're thinking. What kind of name is that? I got it from Girl Interrupted. I read the book a few months ago, and I just couldn't get it out of my head. I didn't understand all the stuff about the psychological disorders, but the psych cases mentioned in the book were really interesting. That asylum was surely full of messed up people. But, hey, asylums aren't the only places where messed up people can be found.

There are lots of messed up people at my school. Maybe some of them have disorders that haven't been diagnosed yet.There's this girl who chews her wrist (what the hell is that?!?!?!). No one wants to be friends with her, so she definitely has some mental problems. Then, there's this girl who always wants to be the center of attention. She has everything I could possibly ever want, but she still wants more, and she has no problem taking stuff from other people. Her conscience doesn't bother her at all. What do you call a person without a conscience again? Oh, I remember. A psychopath. The weird thing is teachers like her a lot, and she's one of the most popular girls at our school. Unbelievable, huh? She reminds me of Regina George from Mean Girls, only more conservative. Satan in a teenage girl's body. Yeah, that's definitely perfect for her. Get a grip on yourself.Then there's me.I'm pretty sure I have some sort of undiagnosed syndrome, because I firmly believe I'm one of the weirdest people at school. Just a little below the girl who chews her wrist on the craziness scale.

What else can I write about?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... I remember now.

I just saw The Covenant on DVD yesterday, starring Steven Strait. It's about teenage boys who have magical powers, etc. I know it critics practically hurled tomatoes at the movie, but I don't think it's that bad. I mean, hot teenage boys who have magical powers? I'd go see that over some French art film I could barely comprehend any day. Plus, they're swimmers in their super posh private school. Duh?!?! Swimmers=swimming trunks. Haha. Just kidding.Anyway, I've gotta go now. I've got to research on what psychological syndrome I've got. Xai jian.
