It all came up when I read on Bella's blog the entry "You can't always get what you want" (which is my favourite song by The Rolling Stones, and I don't even like them). When I learnt the verb "to pigeonhole" in my English class last year, I used it all the time, in every composition. But I think that now I can use it and it has a real meaning in real life to me... at least. And I'll put it in big block letters to make my point clear.

I DON'T WANT TO BE CATERGORIZED, CLASSIFIED OR PIGEOHOLED INTO ANY CATEGORY. I'M HAPPY WITH WHO I AM. I DON'T NEED TO BE LIKE ANYBODY ELSE. I LIKE WHO I AM, IT'S JUST THAT SOMETIMES I NEED A LITTLE BIT OF A REMINDER. I KNOW I CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT I WANT. I CAN'T ALWAYS BE HAPPY WITH WHAT I THINK, WITH WHAT I SAY, WITH WHAT I LOOK LIKE, WITH MY FUTURE PLANS, WITH MY PAST. BUT I CAN GET WHAT I NEED. AND I HAVE WHAT I NEED. I SOMETIMES TRY SO HARD TO GET SOMETHING THAT WOULDN'T EVER MAKE ME HAPPY, BUT JUST BECAUSE EVERYBODY HAS IT, I HAVE TO. I JUST HAVE TO TRY. AND BY TRYING, I GET WHAT I NEED. AND I CAN BE HAPPY WITH THAT. I HAVE FRIENDS, I HAVE A FAMILY, I HAVE A HOUSE, I HAVE BOOKS, I HAVE A TV, I HAVE MUSIC, I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED TO BE HAPPY.


There are stupid girls and boys, just like you and me, who are dying to get into a pigeonhole. A place where everbody looks, think and says the same. Is that a nice thing? Being all the same? NO! Being unique, being rare is amazingly wonderful. It's fulfilling. It's great to see that you don't wanna fit.
There's one reason why I like TV shows and movies that much. And it's because I love seeing amazing life stories, characters that don't exist in real life, houses that are made of cardboard. And while I watch all that, I know that my life is simple and boring. But I like it that way because if my life was so incredibly interesting, any movie would seem boring. And I thank whoever said one day "let's make a movie". Steroetypes: they don't work... with smart people. YES! If are able to at least recognize a steorotype, you are smart. You can tell the difference between a real person and someone who was made up by another person who want to make money.

FYI I write all this, but 2 minutes later I might want to have a perfect body and have cool clothes. But as my favourite TV character Greg House says: "the philosopher Jagger once said, 'You can't always get what you want.'"
