The pessimist may call the optimist a fool; but who is more foolish, the happy individual who expects more happiness or the one who fills his life with bitterness and has only more despair to look forward to?

I created this blog because I have things that I need to say, things that I want to say, but no one ever listens to what I have to say.
In my life people are always talking around me but they are talking about pointless things, what they will wear, how they look, what others think of them, the boys or girls they like, etc. etc.. I sometimes engage in these conversations, but they are always miserable and forced. All of these people are fake, no one forms a thought for themselves anymore, its only about what everyone else is talking about, and by tomorrow it will be different . I want to say things that are real, real for me. I hate small talk, always have and always will, it is pointless, I hate pointless conversation. There is no reason to state obvious things or share details about your life when the other person doesn't actually care. I used to try and participate in pointless conversation, but it is so bland, and well, pointless. I would rather not talk, so I don't. I put on my headphones and block it out, I block all of it out, the pointless chatter, the rumors, the social standards, but you can't hide forever.
This is one of the reasons I love Tori Spring and the novel Solitaire so much, I feel like there is finally someone who understands me, someone who I can finally relate to. I know she is a fictionally character so I shouldn't feel so connected to her, but when you search for people in the real world and you don't find them, you turn to fiction.

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity. An optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

I was worried I'd be unhappy seeing all the posts about the Pjo series since I'm currently not interested in it (despite reading the books). But I'm starting to realize I'm not actually that unhappy seeing the posts. I was just very pessmistic as the show was coming up and I got myself worked up over next to nothing. So even though I'm not watching the Pjo series, I'm not really upset seeing posts about it.
