Finally

Okay so dinner is served: a huge plate of procrastination, mixed with embarrassment, topped off with enough shame for seconds.

But this is solely awkward for me. Truthfully, I was supposed to start this exact blog four years ago, but if you've ever been to college (especially my alma mater), had a job, or you're just a procrastinator at heart, I know you feel my pain of getting distracted for... well, forever. But, enough about me for now. This isn't even about me. It's about them.  
                                   

                                                               And him.
                               

                                                                 This,

                                

                                                                 These,

                                              
                                               
                                                                                       
                                               Can't forget these kiddos.
                             
                                          Oh, and our angels, of course.
                             
                                               
You get the point, right? Music, television, sports, celebrities, books, award shows... pop culture, baby! The thing is I have a love/hate relationship with it. I am a really, really big fan of entertainment. I just really, really hate its side effects; for the people indulging, and let's not forget those in the center of it all. The unrealistic standards we set for each other as human beings, the disgusting promotion of stereotypes, the constant criticism, the painful, unspoken pressure to be perfect. And then there's my least favorite: ignorance. I've always believed there's a difference between having an opinion and having ignorance thrust upon you. Most people have both. There won't be any of that here, but don't write me off just yet.

Before I write my actual first post, you should know two things. Like I said, I love entertainment and I always know what's going on with celebrities. But to be honest, if I saw one walking down the street I wouldn't even do a double take. Okay, that's a lie maybe a couple head turns. But the point is, the only two that I would chase down and confusingly cry in front of are Taylor Swift and LeBron James. And that's more because I admire them as human beings (as far as I know, their public choices, interactions, relationships, etc.) and less for their talent. Let's be honest, everybody has talent. The only difference is that the entire world just happens not to know about ours. So, I want to apologize in advance because I will post about those two any time I get the opportunity. If you dislike either, or both (a surprisingly popular combination), I'm sorry! But you've been warned:)
