What makes me saddest about being here and centering parts of my life around a blogging site is that my mother calls it a "mei yong de dong xi", which means "useless thing". All things considered, she wants me hanging out with real people, as she's put it, instead of spending hours in front of a computer screen and interacting with people I've never met in real life. (In truth, she'd rather I study and get ahead.)
She wants me to have intelligent friends. She's always given me the vibe that the people I hang out with, Lizzie, Gen, Charlotte, Jessie, because they're not in highly advanced courses like I am, they're not good enough for me. Just because I'm semi-intelligent.
Personally, I don't feel like this. I know that behind each of the usernames that I see, there's someone real, someone that's living, breathing, typing out the words that end up on my flist. And you know, that's the best thing that I've found about being around here, is that I get to make a variety of friends. I'm not out of high school yet so my scope is limited, yet with the internet I can go as far as I want to, as long as the wires can reach.
Italy, Singapore, Japan, America, Canada, the Netherlands, the UK. And each person, I know, is someone with their own thoughts, opinions, and words; each person is beautiful and shiny and sparkly and there's nothing I would trade for this. Being on this mei yong de site, I've changed. I've become freer, happier, and more open than I was, oh, four years ago. I like who I am today, moreso than I did a few years back.
You'll never be mei yong de people in my eyes. Thank you for being my friends. <3
