It's Okay To Like Things

So, it has recently come to my attention that lots of ladies say, "Oh, I'm not like other girls." What's wrong with being like other girls? Have you ever met another girl? Girls are so nice to each other! So, this is a post about how it is okay to like traditionally "girly" things. Like, who cares if you want to paint your bedroom pink and have a couple stuffed animals? I know I'd love to! (Well, maybe not pink, but pastels? Yeah!) Most of the girls I know have an excellent sense of style and are very kind people. In fact, Best Friend #2 inspires my current style. I'm currently renovating my room because I want it to look pretty. 

I absolutely adore things like this! I think this room is very pretty and I would love to have it! Interior design is actually one of my favorite things. So, if you have any reservations with doing your room the way you want it, please don't. It's okay to be like "other girls." I reiterate, most girls are fantastic! There are always going to be people who will be hateful about things that you like, but that's their fault. 

Here is a playlist to listen to while redecorating your room: 
Miss Independent - Kelly Clarkson
How It's Going To Be - Gerard Way
Love At First Sight - The Brobecks
Blank Space - Taylor Swift
Since U Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson
Bulletproof Heart - My Chemical Romance
I Don't Care - Fall Out Boy
Defying Gravity - Wicked
Funny You Should Ask - The Front Bottoms
Uptown Funk - Bruno Mars & Mark Ronson
This City - Patrick Stump


Enjoy!

Wake Trilogy - Lisa McMann

     Recently, I retread the "Wake" trilogy by Lisa McMann. Included in the trilogy are "Wake", "Fade", and "Gone." They follow the story of a teenage girl named Janie Hannagan, who has an unusual problem. (Or gift, depending on how you see it.) She falls in to other people's dreams. She can't help it, she can't stop it, and it's driving her mad. Whenever Janie encounters someone who is dreaming, she gets sucked into their dream. And no one ever remembers it, except Janie...
     Until one day. Janie is driving home one night down Waverly Road with the windows rolled down, and falls into someone's dream. For two years after that, she has no idea who it is. That is, until she encounters Cabel Strumheller. Cabel is special, in the case that he remembers Janie being in his dream. Together, they embark on an enlightening and terrifying adventure to figure out Janie. Is falling into dreams a gift or a curse? I suppose you'll have to read to find out.
