Total Eclipse of the Heart

I don't know if I mentioned this before, but my journal titles usually have nothing to do with my post. It's just the song I was listening to when I started writing, like this entry for example. Nothing happened in my love life; I'm listening to the Glee version of "Total Eclipse of the Heart."

Today's discussion point: why are people so afraid of doing simple things by themselves? I feel like people take being an extrovert to the far extremes, and it's very detrimental in my opinion. On the Meyers-Briggs test (of which I am ever so fond), I am 9 points E and 1 point I. I love the fact that I have that 1 point for I. I am by far extroverted; I tend to fill my time with lots of people, and I always am looking for something to do with others. There are times, though, that I enjoy being alone. I went tanning today outside my building, and I was perfectly content being alone. I enjoy watching movies by myself. Granted I'd prefer to go see movies in big groups or with a few people, but I can watch a movie by myself. I am the "shout at the screen" type of person by far. Not having a job has messed up a lot of my personal habits. I am around the same people for multiple hours of the day, and it's getting overwhelming. It sucks to think that because I want to be with these people all the time, but I know I'm going to start getting pissy with people the more I see them. I firmly believe nobody can see the same people day after day and be content. Someone will end up pissing someone else off. I've seen it happen every day. Heck, I'm an RA; of course I've seen this happen. So take warning, friends. If you've been hanging out with someone every day for a week... it may be time to take a break.

Day Two: Your Least Favorite Song
I chose "Rockstar" by Nickelback. First of all, let me state that Nickelback is probably the worst band in the history of music. Sure they sell records and rednecks buy their tickets off of me when I win them off the radio, but their level of suck is other worldly. They have no originality (and whoever told me the other day that nothing is original needs to leave their mainstream bubble behind); most of their songs sound the same. They whine, and I'm desperately over their music. I could really choose any of their songs, but I picked "Rockstar" mostly because it's exactly what Nickelback did: they sold out for fame. They did everything in this song, and look where it got them: millions of dollars. So kids, lesson learned: whore yourself out, and you'll be rich!
