There is something strange in popular things.
Well. You know that situation when something becomes very popular around the world? And do you know the situation when things become extremely popular and most of the people start to hate it. Why is that so? I'm kinda confused, because I do the same thing!
Well, let's see. Twilight? I really loved it since I've read the first book, when nobody even knew what is it about. When I found out there's gonna be a movie I was totally thrilled. Then the movie came out and everyone started reading the book. Most of the people loved it. Then it became very popular and people started hating it. Including me. Well, at least I was pretending so, because it was the right thing to do. If you loved Twilight you weren't cool. I still have all books, cd's and dvd's at home. I don't hate Twilight. Is there any reason I should?
Harry Potter? Almost the same thing as Twilight, but we were kids at the time the books came out so it was not so terrible. But if you watched HP movies you were called ''a baby''. Again, you were not cool.
Britney Spears? Oh yeah, that Britney Spears. Okay, I get it, she's not popular now because all the things she has done etc. That's alright, I really don't like that too.
But I LOVED her when I was a kid. And I bet 90% other girls were crazy about her. But we all say that we never liked her, and if we do admit we were crazy about her, we laugh at it. Why? What's so bad in her and her songs? There's nothing violent (okay maybe Hit me baby one more time xD), or bad in the songs.
Justin Bieber? It's not my style of music. But the kid is great. He sings okay, has a great message to kids, he is polite. What can I say? I'm glad that kids listen to his songs today. At least they stopped listening rap songs about murders, fight and violence. But here I go again: I laugh at him when I see a poster somewhere. I laugh when I hear his song and I laugh at jokes about hid childish voice.
Again, I'm with the majority, so I don't look stupid. NO! I am stupid for telling something I don't mean, just to be cool. That's soooo lame. Don't you agree?
iPhone/iPod? All Apple products. It's not so uncool yet, but I already see, it will become. The same thing as All the above. Right now it's really popular. I wanted iPod touch for a very long time. And I finally got one. Well, I like it soooo freakin' much! But I'm ashamed/afraid/I-don't-know-the-feeling when I take it out of my bag somewhere like bus, or just in public. I'm afraid someone's going to have a comment about it. Like it is something bad. No. You are just jealous that you don't have it, and a comment: ''oh, this is shit, I would never buy it.'' is just self defense for not being sad you don't have it.
I decided something, and I hope you all agree with me. Always tell what You really think about something. Do not pretend you're someone else just to make people like you!!!
I don't need to be cool. I'm not cool anyway, so why to bother telling lies?! I like what I like and that is okay.
