Just Curious..

I was about 13 in 1969....so yup of that Woodstock generation. Hehee...I tend to still drool over guys with long hair...and beards too...LOL I LOVE the way the actor Viggo Mortensen appears in Lord of the Rings as Aragon...I kid people saying he's my future husband....now to tell him that..heehee Isn't it weird though that people gripe and complain that they are reduced to a number, that they are just one in a million and blend in with the crowd, but gee, heaven help the person that they come across that is "different" then they ridicule them--just why is that? To be honest, I've been the different drummer type all my life and never really fitted in, but do I want to be and look like everyone else...nope wonder if I know that person from Queens...LOL

LOL oh yea.. I've also been "different" for as long as I can remember. But I think I really started going extreme in about 8th grade, this guy I liked was into Marilyn Manson, and I got into his music too.. so that kinda changed me from a country/pop kiddie to a hardcore rocker for several years, then when I was 17 I heard this new band and they opened me up to a new kind of music, pop-punk/powerpop, whatever you wanna call it.. LOL since then, all my tastes have merged together and I pretty much like everything in the rock/pop/alt/punk/emo area. I also like some older music, like beach boys and stuff, but I definitely relate more to newer music, just because the songs help me through a lot of bad days, even though now, a lot of that music is more popular with teenagers, but the thing is--these trends were starting when I was still a teenager, it's just I was called a freak and stuff for liking it all, and now it's the "cool" stuff. LOL I'm always like, umm.. I need to be in high school now, I'd be the coolest, I've been on the pop-punk bandwagon since before there was a wagon! It's just so funny how it works out! Really is! oh, and I agree, people complain about not being seen, then they complain when people are different.. it's like if you want to be noticed, then you gotta stand out! LOL it's funny, because at this one concert about 6 years ago, the band members were walking around and I saw this girl kiss the lead singer on the cheek and I was like OMG.. I wish I was brave enough to ask to do that! LOL But anyway, I met him, got a picture with him.. then I was telling my friend I was with about the girl I saw and how I wish I had that nerve.. well, later on she called me over and she had ASKED him if I could kiss him on the cheek! I was like "OMG" LOL And of course I did it, and it was AMAZING! LOL He was the first, and last guy I ever kissed! haha anyway, so about a few month later we went and saw the same band in a different city, and well.. he said to me "I remember you".. (LOL) and it was SOO.. funny, later that night my friend was all like "he's a jerk!" And to this day I'm like, oh, he's a jerk because he remembered ME and not her? LOL See, she was the type that got around with a lot of guys, and I'm the girl who's never even had a boyfriend. I don't get that attention often, so that was so cool when he remembered me, and cooler that SHE was jealous! haha :D Anyway, my dad said it's probably because I'm not like her, she kinda just blends in, and I had piercings and different hair everytime I went! LOL Also, basically he said that these guys know who their true fans are.. and obviously I AM one! LOL although, my dad is missing a piece of the story.. the kiss. LOL I had told my friend if she told my mom that I'd kick her butt! haha although, in reality, I couldn't have, I'm bigger than her, but she's like almost a foot taller than me, and I am not a fighter.. anyway, she didn't tell that secret. LOL Anyway.. that's just my little story about standing out from the crowd! It CAN be VERY rewarding. LOL Oh yea.. that kiss, I was tasting it for like at least a day! hahaha that was strange, but so cool!

LOL oh good, I'm glad you did your own investigation. hehe I really didn't want to call anyone out, but I certainly knew that it could be found on my profile if a person wanted to see what I was talking about. LOL yea.. my dad I think was around 18 in '69, but I'm not sure.. I do know that he was in vietnam though, so sounds like the right period. LOL So he pretty much has the same view about hair and stuff. He isn't so much for men having earrings, but he doesn't rag on anyone for it, actually I know before he just said it was weird to see older men, like his age with earrings. LOL But then again, he never had that, he had the long hair, and does again--as I said in one of my posts on this topic. Exactly! It hurts nobody to have someone dress a certain way or wear hair in a certain style. LOL except maybe for me, the worst that could happen if I saw a long-haired guy is I might run into the wall or slip in a puddle of my own drool. LOL Ok, that's a total exaggeration, but I'm in a weird mood right now. I think that is GREAT that you have your own style, I do too, well, these days I mostly wear sweats and no make-up, but when I'm really trying I am definitely a mixture of gothic/emo/punk style.. basically a blending of what I started doing in high school and bringing in newer styles I have picked up over the years. LOL But yea, most the time I am in sweats, so I'm kinda just "style-less". haha And that's so cool that you wear Native American jewelry, and even cooler that you made some of it! LOL that's funny, people are so funny when it comes to appearances and dress, when most of them seem to choose the boring look, and dress like everyone else, in plain clothes. I know that if I had the choice between having unlimited clothes in my style and dressing like everyone else, well, I'd choose my own style! LOL Oh cool, I have a friend in an online game I play who is from Queens! LOL Just a random comment, that is so cool, I don't run into a lot of people from there.

LOL yea.. Sometimes I think we just need to release on someone. haha Luckily I chose an older post, and I tried to be as *nice* as possible. I was sarcastic at places, but sincere with my feelings. I see it this way, I wrote nothing against mylots rules, so I'm ok. And if my rating were to go down because of it I really didn't care at the time. LOL Actually, I just noticed today that my rating is back up to 9, and it went from 84 to 86 since last night, so my response definitely didnt hurt me. LOL I definitely think I'm starting to get more comfortable with stating my mind on here now, I'm still cautious, but I'm getting more able to write my feelings.

im glad it didnt hurt your rating!! and i think with time you get a better feel about posting and replying on here
