This Is Me.

-Demi Lovato.
So this is my first post. I've decided that all my posts are going to be song inspired, by songs that have inspired me as a person. I don't know if anyone will read this, it certainly won't be something I'll be showing to my friends, or should i say, "friends". I don't know anyone who will read this, so for some reason I feel much more comfortable revealing to you more about myself than I would to anyone I know. I'm fifteen, I have one brother, seven cousins and a lot of friends. I have a boyfriend, who I'm sure several of you will judge me on, because he lives in Egypt and I've never met him. A lot of my life I've spent changing myself, to be like my friends, to be perfect for my family. I was doing this right up until last year, when I decided that I needed to know who I was. This song, albeit from, in my opinion, a wholey cheesy film, has some amazing lyrics. When I heard it, it helped me to realise I needed to be my own person, and to find out who I was. Now, I know who I am, and I know what I want to be. And I'm not changing for anyone. Before my "revelation" I had been labelled and stereotyped many times. My music taste, though quite varied and open, is generally in a rock/alternative direction. Sometimes, because of the way I dress and the music I listen to, I've been labelled "scene kid" or "emo". The people I hang out with are intelligent, so I'm also a "nerd" or a "geek". So maybe I am a nerdy scene kid, or a geeky emo. Doesn't change who I am to myself and to people who know me. I'm just about done with this post, but I guess I'll write something tomorrow. Peace.

  1. Ugh, I hate labels... But probably not as much as the clicks they result in. I have to say, where I live, it's not that bad. Looking back at high school, I have to say that everyone got along perfectly well in my school.

    I liked Camp Rock, it brought out my inner child and made me an immediate fan of Demi Lovato's voice! :D

    Don't let any one jugde you for your relationship. I sincerely hope you two are happy together.
