Obsessions

We all have our obsessions, right? 

Some of mine include Harry Potter, Ed Sheeran and The Big Bang Theory.

My friends Taryn and Chloe have loads of obsessions too! Taryn LOVES Friends (The TV show), Ed Sheeran, her action films and chick-flicks, Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Taylor Lautner and much more. Chloe is obsessed with a YouTuber called Tobuscus, The Vampire Diaries and Russell Howards Good News.

In the summer holidays, just before we went back to school, someone who I thought was a good friend and at least respected my obsessions started an argument with me because I was posting Harry Potter stuff on my Facebook page. I'll admit, I was posting tonnes of HP things, but it's my page and I have the right to post what I want without anyone, never mind my friends, having a go at me about it. I'm not going to say who it was that started arguing with me about my "obsession", but they really upset me. I went back to school a few days later and avoided this person completely, and this person acted like nothing happened. Now we are talking, but this person still acts as if nothing happened. Anyway, I couldn't stop thinking about what this person said to me and it made me feel bad about myself. 

However, I came to realise that it's our obsessions that make us who we are. What we like defines our personalities in a way and tells people more about the person we are. Without our obsessions, we'd be pretty damn boring.

Chloe likes Tobuscus, who Taryn and I don't find entertaining, but we respect that she likes him and that's her opinion. We would never make her feel bad for liking him.

What I really want to say is that you shouldn't change what you like just because other people don't like it. We don't live to please other people. Stay true to yourself and never let people tell you that you are pathetic or stupid for liking something. Embrace your obsessions, because they are what make you, you!

These are most of my obsessions...

Thats all I have to say about obsessions!
