My 1st post of the year...
WOOHOO
and I'm gonna talk abt boybands...

For a while, I stopped the whole boyband thing cause I thought I was supposed to grow out of it
But life became a bit less colorful
and I have finally seen the error of my ways
Some friends make fun of me for liking boybands
but hey
you don’t see me saying anything about your rock music to your face!
So let’s make it a judge-free zone mkay

I don’t care that much when people bash on boybands
and equate their music to artistic leprosy
It can be pretty funny
but I find most of it to be pedantic and unoriginal
Just enjoy what you enjoy
and let me enjoy what I enjoy
Being a “real” music listener or whatever doesn’t give you superiority over the rest of us

My interests DO extend beyond boybands
and I DO sometimes listen to this so-called “real” music
Boybands are popular because they’re appealing, entertaining, and fun
I listen to music to be entertained and happy
not to uphold arbitrary standards of hipness set forth by those too insecure to give into the powers of a good hip thrust

Oh yeah
the above paragraph just demonstrated the biggest hardship of being a boyband fan: irrationality on good days
and batshit insanity every other day
I’ve always prided myself on being a sensible, non-delusional, and non-overreaction-ey fan
but now I realize that there’s no such thing as a sane fan
Fan stands for “fanatic” for a reason

We’re all crazy
and I seriously worry about my mental health sometimes
For example
My obession with Xiah Junsu as u can see from my blog

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go suffer through some more lip-synching and dancing on youtube
Life is sooooo hard when you’re a fangirl
