Who Am I?

Who Am I?

If you don't want to hear about Kokoro Connect or The World God Only Knows for the second post in a row, click here to skip this part.

Obviously if you're still here you don't mind me discussing the "no name" anime I have been watching lately. Anyhow, the thing I wanted to quickly get out of the way was that The World God Only Knows ended really badly (in my opinion), in that everything had a really easy fix to it, and there was no closure. A lot of things are left hanging in the air, so that kind of ticks me off. But that's not what I'm here to talk about.

So I finished Kokoro Connect and at one point of the anime, one of the main characters starts to question who she really is. Her friends question her because they realize what some of her true thoughts are, and that leads to her questioning herself. The anime drags this whole Iori-is-depressed event for a while (which was very dull), so I don't want to get into how stupid she was during that period of time.

But that leads me to this question. Who am I? The character I was talking about (I'm just going to start calling her Iori from this point on) had personality problems, as that she did not have one. Iori apparently allowed her personality to mold to whatever fit the situation at the time and to the people around her. Eventually she loses track of herself and doesn't know who the true Iori is (which you can tell already is going to be a major plot event in the anime).

Enough with the whole scene setting though. The thing is that I think I'm kind of like Iori (not that I'm a girl or anything, but yeah). It's the people around me that make me. Doesn't necessarily mean that it is bad, so that's why I thought Iori was kind of an idiot later on in the anime (but then she goes back to being in my good books by the end, even though everything with her was still unclear).

Wow. This was much longer than I thought (no sexual puns please).

This Is Stupid (Not To Mention Embarrassing)

Even though I claim to have fallen out of infatuation with a lot of girls, the reality is that... I fall more than I pick myself up. It's stupid (and embarrassing because going around goo goo eyes is just not right) because I can't even tell if it's infatuation or if I'm just lonely.

Lonely? Do I even deserve to feel lonely? There are a bunch of other people in the world who have it worse than me, so I'm going to stop whining about it.

Just A Few More To 300

Once again I'm preparing for another milestone post, so you can be pretty sure that the next few posts will be pretty bad. I'm not sure if I can really make a good post for number 300, but I'll try my best.

I'm still quite sick, so it's been some dreadful days for me. I feel like I'm getting better, but I honestly don't know. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this post. I am a... 7 today? My illness puts me about 2 below my obligatory 9, and I have a test for chemistry tomorrow, so that brings us to a grand total of 7.

    You don't need to know who you are. We are all someone and you are here. Nothing else really matters as much.

    It's okay to feel lonely, we all do. Saying someone has it worse is like saying you shouldn't smile because someone has it better. If you're lonely, you're lonely. Remember anon is always here though.

    Congrats and I hope you feel better. Until next time.

  2. Hey Kev, It's always fine to feel lonely! If you feel lonely, or like you're loosing yourself then it doesn't matter too much how the other person had it worse (or has?). You feel your own feelings and you have your own thoughts allowing you to make your own decisions and make your own actions. I made it sound kind of lonely as well, but it's not. When you are yourself people are attracted and want to be around you too.

    Hope you feel better soon and good luck on your test :)

  3. Hey Kevin. Like shadow^ said, it's absolutely fine to feel lonely. I struggled with that over the summer. Sooner or later, you just start to enjoy your own company..possibly even more than others sometimes. You're entitled to feel and express anything you want, like ^shadow said again. Let yourself feel these feelings, cause who knows. It might be the last time you'll ever feel them. (Just think about it)..So if you are falling back into infatuation, don't overthink it.
    Hope this'll help in some way
