Dancer in the dark

My late mother loved to dance, and her aunt was a professional dancer. My late father met my mother at a dance. But me, no, I’m the one who only dances in the dark and alone. I like watching other people dance, though. I watched the Finnish version of Dancing with the Stars, which my mother also watched. I feel my feet don’t cooperate with my brain. I hated discos in school. Dancing was too embarrassing. Other people watching me feel awkward. Maybe they wouldn’t care how I dance, but I don’t want to do it in public.

We had ballroom dancing in one class in school, but even then, I didn’t dance. It isn’t my thing. It’s good exercise, but I don’t care. It isn’t my kind of fun. I once applied to dance education, but luckily, it got cancelled. I don’t know why I applied. It was one of the first education I did after compulsory school, so I had to apply for something. I couldn’t imagine being a dancer. I’m too clumsy for that. I admire people who are great dancers. People who can dance like Michael Jackson are amazing. Especially young kids. For me, it’s easier to dance in my head than for real.

I will remain the dancer in the dark, and there I should stay. I leave the dance to those who like it and can do it right. I will remain to be the viewer.

Bloganuary: Even the smallest person can change the world

Day 29. “Even the smallest person can change the world”- Roger Rabbit. Or, “Even the smallest person can change the course of the future” – Galadriel in Lord of the rings. Some people think they can’t change the world, but they are wrong. We are in this together. We should think about climate change. Saving humankind is the main priority. You can change it by doing little things. Walk instead of taking the car. Travel to places where you can get without a plane. Don’t litter in nature. Recycle all the things you can. You can also teach your kids good manners. Try to think positive because negative thinking only makes you feel miserable. Be open-minded and think about your attitude. It begins with you. Just because something has always been done in a certain way doesn’t mean you can’t change it. That’s how I am changing the world.

If you don’t think about the problems, nothing will ever change. If people only think about themselves, the future will be dark for the next generation. Nature is not the only one that should be saved. You should also try to enlighten people about other issues in the world. There are many homeless, lonely, poor people, health issues and so on. One person can’t save the world by themselves. But if we work together, we can make a difference. If we don’t do anything, nothing will change. If I repeated myself in this post, it doesn’t matter. Important things should be repeated.

A song that gives me feels the most is ‘Man in the Mirror’ by Michael Jackson. He cared for the environments and things that were wrong in the world. You should listen to the words because it’s all so true. The lyrics video is below.

Please,no more creepy stuff thank you very much

Since I saw ‘Snow White and Seven Dwarfs’ at age 3, I haven’t liked creepy stuff. I never been into vampires, monsters etc. kind of movies or TV shows. The likes of ‘True Blood’, ‘Supernatural’ nor ‘The Walking Dead’ just creeps me out. Even the Orcs or Uruk Hai’s in ‘Lord of the rings’ were creepy. At the start I just couldn’t look when they were on the screen. I’ve watched X-Files a few times and even then, I just looked away. I just find it disgusting. I’ve never watched ‘American Psycho’ with Christian Bale because of the creepy stuff. Even seeing scenes from the movie, is difficult. I just can’t do it. When watching e.g. CSI where they show dead bodies, makes me look away as well.

When I was 7, I watched a movie in secret from my parents in my room. In it, there was a dead body with its eyes opened in a trunk of a car and the killer with a wrench in its hand. I saw nightmares a few nights after that. I still remember it. Those creepy dead eyes. Yuck. That’s what you get when you’re curious. Now I have to pay the price. I can’t even watch Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ video. I always look a way when I see those zombies and the werewolf.

There’s a trailer with the upcoming movie ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy’. I could not watch the movie even if Lee Pace is in. I rather not see it because of the possible creepy stuff. Even the thought of the creepiness, is agonizing. First of all I don’t like to look at mutated things and secondly horror stuff are a bit silly as well.

I’ve never understood the fascination with horror and creepy stuff. When people talk about these ‘popular’ TV shows, it just bores the hell out of me. I just have nothing in common with people who like that kind of stuff. Just keep all that creepiness away from me, please.
