Normal?

"I cannot maintain a semblance of normal anymore. I'd rather feel pain than try to fit in with you anymore. I'll throw it all away, like everybody else. I can finally be myself. Cuz I don't want to be myself."

Half of you people will read this and think that I am just some chick obsessed with this band. Okay, it's true. I am, but not because I think they are "to die for", but because as a band they connect with their fans.

Through my 16 years of breathing I've realized that most adults have certain expectations of you. They want you to become something you are not.

Take my mother for example. Yes, she supports me and she think's that is awesome that I play the drums. But of course she wants more of me. My plans after high school is to become either a veternarian or a pediatric nurse. These are my long term goals, but if I could be in a successful band, my life would be complete. My mother would probably have a cow though. Oh well. Shouldn't I do what makes me happy?

Every single one of us are put on this Earth for one reason or another. Either to become a mass murderer or to invent a cure for cancer. We are all here for something. So do what you are destined to do. Do what you love. And for the most part, don't let anybody take away your dreams.
