Sometimes you have to be someone else to realize who you really are. No, I'm serious. I've always been different from other girls around me. For example, I didn't care about fashion,I never liked RnB or pop music, I had more guy friends than girl friends, I preferred to sit home instead of go to parties. Okay stop. I know what you're thinking and the answer is yes! I am human and I do have a life. I just wasn't the average Belgian teenager thank god.
I would listen to Alice Nine and The Gazette instead of Usher or Kesha. I watched Kuroshitsuji and Jigoku Shoujo instead of Twilight and 16 and pregnant. Instead of meeting new wrong friends, I'd sit in my room and draw. And I was happy. I really was. I had a wish back then. To go to Japan, to live there.
But then came my first love, a boy who changed my life. Thanks to him I started to get a reputation in school, people started to know me and I didn't like being called that "Japan-freak". So I started to change. I thought I became happy, but i didn't. I pretended to be someone I wasn't. I did make a lot of friends and even the freshman kids talked about me. But honestly, I'm not happy. I still don't like pop-music, I don't even like those people who I talk to. I don't like fitting in. I just hate it.

They say "Once you've lost something you will realize it's value". It's true. I lost myself. And I've learnt my lesson. I am who I am, and I don't give a damn what others think. I am me and no one can change me ;)!! So my message to you, be yourself (even if it's a big cliche) the people who are trying to change you aren't worth your love and attention. Unless you're a junkie who doesn't wanna quit his drugs.
Sleep tight my sunshines ♥
