Just had to, sorry :3
What does music cause me?
Music causes me pain. Music causes me to rejoice. Tears. Breakdowns. Happy dances in random meadows. Obsession. Ranting. Anything and everything that comes with human life, I suppose.
And I'm sure all of us have met across music at some point in our life. Well, most of us. As in, 99% most of us (us meaning our awesome internet using selves). We may get obsessed. We may throw the CD and step on it shrieking why the hell we even bothered to buy it(well, why the hell did you bother to ruin it?). We might just use music as mirror to our moods. Sometimes it might be inspiration to our minds; hope to our souls. Music does a lot of things.
My life has really revolved around music, in a way. Or, in better, more fitting words, music has always been there for me. When I come home from school, I quickly turn on the computer and click open some playlist of the week. In all my moods, music was never the problem.
The thing is, I hate it when people diss my music interests. Just because they don't like them, or just because I listened to a single song. They don't really care what it is. As long as it's music THEY don't like, to the rubbish it goes.
That's exactly what has already happened to me numerous times already. At least my mum only judges my music on loudness (she hates anything that has some similarity to rock or heavy metal), and my dad just hates all the music I like (he's not a music person so), and I don't really care anyways because they don't rant at me about how they hate my music.
Though, I've got this one friend. Let's just say that I'll never show her my blog. Of course, she's my friend, I don't hate her, she's a good person in general, and she's not really mean normally - not that she's actually mean when she rants to me. But, it just irks me.
So, I sit down on the computer, type up a letter telling her my playlist (because she has an obsession with seeing if I've got Justin Bieber on my playlists or not) and then click send. And wait. Few hours (or days) later, a reply comes back. First time I sent her a playlist email, the playlist had Britney Spears and some other 'famous rich lip-synching pop stars who never change' on it. Immediately, she exploded, and started telling me how pop stars are so overrated, all that blah, about how they basically autotune all of their songs and mooch money off of fans. Then, she gives a long list of examples of all the pop stars who overdo it, and then tells me that the Pop singers these days are so ten years ago. Of course, from there, she talks about how the musicians and bands she like are famous for their talents, not just because they're the hottest thing on Billboards. Of course, I like a few of her music interests. But, I mean, up till around last year or so, she was extremely addicted to Katy Perry. Before that, she was interested in all kinds of things - Avril Lavigne, Miley Cyrus, all those people.
I mean, I don't have a problem with her ranting to me about those things. She keeps her opinion, I can't argue at her to change her mind about the current music life. But, when people diss off your interests, nobody's going to be happy no matter how forgiving they are. Really, you'll be at least the slightest bit annoyed.
Next thing is Harry Potter.
I've loved Harry Potter since I was able to read - from a young time, in shortened words. It's a large part of of my life, and I would never be myself without my obsession. But you know when people say that, Harry Potter is over, J.K.Rowling is going to die someday, who knows if it will be considered a classic - all those things.
I really don't care if it's considered 'over'. Sure, the movies are all out, books all out, and J.K.Rowling moving on from the boy wizard. But, alike to what Rick Riordan wrote in Percy Jackson about how immortals 'die'(fade) from existance just because people have stopped believing in them. It's kind of true, partially. As long as we fans continue on, Harry Potter will keep Marching On. That's what I believe.
And even though what people point out is true - J.K.Rowling isn't a Goddess and will die, and it's not yet decided if Harry Potter is a classic. Still, haters - you don't need to point it out to us. We know. We understand. We are ignorant. That's what fans are, right?
So long good bye to my random ranting.
