Shipping

#Ihaveajobandhaventhadtimetopostorwritethings2k15


~


Ugh.
I didn't know what to write today.
I'm pretty sure this wasn't the thing to write today.
But
ugh.
Today's Real Talk Topic is...
Shipping.
And no, not of the package kind.

~


Let's talk about shipping.
I know you know what it is.
And if you don't,
that's a real cute rock you live under.

For those of you who do live under cute rocks,
shipping is when you take two characters/people/objects/whatevs
and decide that they should be involved in some sort of relationship.
More often than not, its of the romantic type.

Now that we have that figured out,
lets talk about some like..
Pros and cons
and some general rules
of shipping.
I'm going to list a few things that are
OKAY
and
NOT SO OKAY.
About shipping.

OKAY.
Shipping two men together.
Shipping two women together.
Shipping a man with a woman.
Shipping a woman with a man.
Sharing your ship with people who might find it interesting.
Respecting others opinions and ships.
Politely explaining why you ship something that someone else may not.
Writing fan fics or creating fan art of your ship/OTP.
Respecting a person(s) personal boundaries.
Having fun with the fandom.

NOT OKAY.
Telling two men that they have to be together no matter what!!
Telling two women that they have to be with each other no matter what!!
Telling a man and a woman that they have to be with each other no matter what!!
Telling a woman and a man that they have to be together no matter what!!
Telling your ship that they can only date each other and that if they don't they are wrong!
Telling other people that their opinion/ship is wrong.
Yelling at/attacking/or bullying someone who has a different ship than you.
Making your ship/OTP uncomfortable!!
Disregarding a person's feelings because they're your “OTP”
Taking things too far.

Now that we've established that lets talk pros and cons.

Pros
Getting to know new people who share your interests and ideas.
Discussing theories with people who understand what you mean.
Being surrounded by a community.

Cons
Ignorant people.

Try to keep these things in mind.
Realise that not everyone is going to agree with you
and that you're not going to agree with everyone else.
Don't make that an issue.
Make friends.
Be kind.
Respect other people.

Understand that your OTP may not be comfortable with you shipping them
and respect their boundaries.
This is so so so so so so so important.
RESPECT PEOPLE'S BOUNDARIES!!

Okay
I think that's as far into this topic as I'm going to go for now.
Mostly because
I know someone is going to get offended by this.
And also
I want to this be concise.
Happy shipping everyone.


~


Well that was fun.
Stuff like this is fun.
For the record,
I love shipping.
So don't take this as me saying to stop doing it.
I'm fully aware that that's never going to happen.
Also
if you'd like..
go ahead and leave a comment with your OTP
or something like that.

That's it for this post.
I'll talk to you guys...
when I talk to you.
Okay.
Byeeee

FOUR review

Its Monday.
Which means
Review Monday!!
Here
have this.


~


Let's talk One Direction.
Because they're flawless.
We're all aware of this
but
FOUR?
How can you not constantly be talking about this album?
Really.
How?
Because
the amount I have obsessed over it since it dropped is probably unhealthy.
Its definitely unhealthy
but
details details.

I haven't reviewed something in a long time.
I haven't blogged in a long time.
Oops.
Its just like
I've been busy.
K?
Chill.

~

Anywayyyy
FOUR.
Let's get something straight.
Yes, I probably am biased.
But like...that's fine.
I can't offend my husbands too much.
Lololololololol
I apologise.
I hate myself.
Ugh.

~

Disclaimer: These are all my opinions and in no way am I trying to change yours.
Chill?

~

The first song on the album is
Steal My Girl.
And Imma gonna be real with you.
Its not my favourite.
But like,
Its not even bad.
Its actually pretty good.
Its just not my favourite.
And I may have ruined it by playing non stop when it was released.
Details, details.
SMG, for me, is very reminiscent of their sound in 2011.
Can we all respect that?
Its also been out the longest so its the one last I want to listen to the least.
Because I've heard it the most.
K great.

Next song.

Ready to Run
When I first heard this song
I thought I was listening to
Story of My Life.
And I Swooned.
I was like YASSSS.
It's definitely one of my favourites on the album.
I feel like they reached for this song,
and took risks with it
and nailed it.
Its awesome.
I haven't gotten tired of it yet.
Ugh.
I love it.
Its just a much deeper sound than I'm used to hearing from them.

Where Do Broken Hearts Go.
I honestly don't have enough good things to say about this song.
Its phenomenal.
The lyrics are great. Ily hazzabear
I just want to know the story behind this song.
As with a few others, but we'll get there.
Who did you let down?
Hm?
Naughty boys.

18
Now
This is the song that Ed wrote.
So naturally its great,
What evs.
How dare you Sheeran
but like.
This song is so different
Its simple.
It doesn't need a lot of background noise.
Its simple and clear.
And its just so good.
I weep.
I will kiss you where you lay down.
And please press your hands to my cheeks.
I would tattoo these lyrics to my body.
How dare you Sheeran.
Ps. Louis Tomlinson in this song though?
I weep.

Girl Almighty
This song is my jam.
Like
man
lets dance to this song all the time.
Its just so fun.
Its like peppy.
And
yeah
its great.

Fool's Gold
Ugh.
These lyrics.
These make me miss my nonexistent boyfriend.
How dare you.
But at the same time.
This song is so sad.
And of course Harry is singing the chorus.
I weep.
Its beautiful.
Don't worry boys.
My love is real.
So real
#whipped

Night Changes
This song deserves its own post
JUST BECAUSE OF THE FREAKING MUSIC VIDEO.
Also.
I love the light lilting sound this song has.
Take me on lovely dates One Direction.
Also dat key change though.
Lovely.

No Control
This song.
This song!
THIS SONG!
THIS!
SONG!
Ugh.
This is the song I show people first.
I LOVE it.
Louis bby
aaahhhhh!!
This is Louis Tomlinson featuring One Direction
and
I
am
here
for
it.
Its so good.
They sound so good.
I love the bridge a lot.
I love them a lot.
Play this song on repeat at my funeral.

Fireproof
When I heard this song I was like
Yes.
This is what I've been waiting for.
The sound of this song though is just so
like great.
And its like..
How dare you.
Also
Styles falsetto alert.
How Dare You.

Spaces
This isn't one of the songs I remember going nuts over.
But every time I hear it I get really excited.
Its great.
Who hurt you?

Stockholm Syndrome
Don't.
How dare you.
Ugh.
This SONG.
Dear One Direction,
THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE A PART OF YOUR FANDOM
love
Ashlie.
But seriously this song is awesome.
Again I'd have these lyrics tattooed on my body.
/sobs

Clouds
When you hear the title of this song
tell me that you don't think its going to be something light a lilty.
Well friend,
you're wrong.
I love this song.
And I wish I could hear it live.
Because I'm actually very impressed with the vocals.
Which honestly I'm not sure why
because they're pretty simple.
But I love this song.
I could probably write a post just about this song.
But, I will not.

Change Your Ticket
This song sounds like the 1975!!!
Well done lads!!
AAAAHHHHH
I actually screamed.
This is one of my favourite on the album.
Possibly my actual favourite.
Its so good.
And it sounds so nice.
and if I’m pretending they're talking to me then no one has to know
But also, it makes me kinda sad.
Because this song is pretty upbeat.
But like...how many times have they done this?
Basically begged someone to stay with them longer so that they don't have to be alone.
This is something I think about a lot.
Because they're just regular guys..
Okay I'm stopping before this goes too far.

Illusion
All I have to say about this song is that its so sweet that it was written for a girlfriend.
So sweet.
Its also a chill song.
But it didn't stand out to me.
Whoops.
But I like how much it meant to him.
The lyrics show how much thought was put into it.
It is a bit cocky though
I mean that in the nicest way possible.

Once in a Lifetime
This isn't a song that I remember very often.
But I do like it.
I like all of them.
But this one is a nice
rainy day
listen.
And I appreciate those songs.
Its just like mellow and chill
and I like it a lot.

Act My Age
When I hear this song I just imagine all of the boys
jumping around
acting like fools
and just having fun.
And I love it.
This song it fun to be a fool during.
I actually love it.
I like that it sounds so different.
Also,
Vocals?
How dare you.

Okay well,
That was my One Direction Album FOUR review.
Again,
these are my opinions.
You can agree with them.
Or you can disagree with them.
And then you can go on with your life.
That's really all.
Thank you.


Okayyyyy

*New Years Resolutions*

Well hello there everyone.
And welcome to my blog.
uh..
Yeah.


~


Its Thursday here.
Which means its a
This or That
but...you probably don't know that yet.
Oops.
Chances are some of you have been here before
but hopefully some of you are new.
Anyway
these are my
New Years Resolutions.
Let's get started.


~


I think an important thing to do when making a resolution
is to keep it specific enough
so you actually know what you're doing.
Example.
Eat 2 carrots a day.
As opposed to.
Eat more carrots.
Chill?
However,
it is good to keep that generalisation in mind so that on a day where you don't eat two carrots
you can still remember that originally your goal was to eat more carrots
and eating one carrot
is still more than eating none.
~
1. Write more
~ Write something everyday
~Get a blogpost up more often than not
2. Do the YouTube
~Create content
3. Be healthy
~No excuses.
~Eat two carrots everyday
Listen to good music
~enrich myself in things that I find important
Take some time to focus on me.
Learn to say 'No' unapologetically.
Understand that I can't please everyone.
LOVE MYSELF.


~


Ugh.
This went deeper than I had hoped.
Ugh.


Okay.
So...here is the blog schedule.
I really am hoping to stick to it.
But
guys
stuff happens
and thats okay.
