Filled with GLEE

Just had an amazing day with my best friends where we saw GLEE! THE MOVIE. It's like, every song just started a new fire in me, totally different from how I felt when watching the TV show. Every emotional song had me feeling the same emotions, every upbeat song had me wanting to dance in the aisles (and as much as I wanted to, my friends wouldn't let me. They didn't want to embarrass themselves, but we were already embarrassing ourselves - we were singing along and dancing in our seats and acting along with the song and grabbing at the sexiness of Glee actors in 3D). Seeing the movie reminded me of why I fell in love with Glee in the first place (besides the fact that they have awesome musical numbers and juicy drama and comedy) - Glee makes a home for every outcast in high school, even the ones you don't have at your school or didn't know existed.

Mostly everyone feels like an outcast in high school - it's like a rule that there must be outcasts. And of course, if you have been reading my other blog posts, you know how much I feel like an outcast. I don't have any specific category to fall under or one regular group of friends, I can go from having a good day to having a depressing day that makes me not want to go on, I have so many problems - some others also face and some that are pretty unique for me. When I watch shows like Glee and True Life, it reminds me that reality is really what you don't normally see. It let's me know that it's okay if my life or my problems aren't normal. For a while, a few years ago, I didn't really think I was depressed or that my problems were that bad because I always think that there are people worse off than I am and that I should stop feeling sorry for myself. But that didn't help me at all.

So now, with a new school year and a lot of new perspectives in mind, I'm hoping to make my senior year the most BAD-ASSICAL year of my high school life :D
