I have this weird attitude that, if everyone likes a certain celebrity or song or game, whatever… I would not like it, I have this weirdness that either I like it before they do, or I would not like it.
I guess in a way… I am a bit… rebellious? (ha ha, most people who know me would probably never associate me with this word) Somehow, exactly, when, I do not know, but some point in my life, I decided to not follow others, I want to be myself, someone distinctive, a person who thinks and is not just a mirror of everyone else.
like for example… a few months ago, my friends got this game, actually… I wanted to try out that game… to the very least to see what it is like exactly… but on second thought, by having that game, I would associate myself to being labeled to those people who only get that game just because everyone has it.
Then, there is Se7en, the Korean singer… I actually kind of liked his music… but those crazy fans were just too fanatic, thus… I decided to wait till he wasn’t that popular anymore… which is… now? Now, I could totally focus on listening to his music! I am so weird…!
So, thus what I do instead is try to find something that is less popular (by the way, I haven’t yet) and start a own trend… (I’ve actually done many trends over these past few years anonymously! shh, he he mm is the word!) Like… I had gotten a Neopet’s account way before it became popular… I still go on it, because when someone comes up to me saying “oh look, another copycat” I could proudly say something like “actually no, I didn’t copy anyone, nor could I verify that people copied me, but the fact that I had it WAY before the trend proves that I didn’t follow others, or that I copied others for that matter” ofcourse, another example is the now, so popular… Facebook, I got it when it was called “The Facebook” thus proving that I did not copy others… I joined just because I liked it, not because everyone is on it.
I just don’t get people who want something only because everyone else has it… not because they actually like it, in fact, they probably hate it…
but do you think I am going too far? this just gets me thinking…. am I weird? rebellious? or… [insert word] ?
