I remember seeing commercial's popping up a month or so ago for this new show Glee that was coming to Fox and it was the first series I got excited about in awhile. But then my schedule (or just forgetfulness) got in the way and I never really got to catch any episodes. But a couple weeks ago my friend Kim had me watch the ending number the cast did for the pilot episode. The song was "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey and I knew at the moment that I was going to be hooked on the show. Of course, right after getting attached to the show then I had to leave for school where I don't have easy access to cable tv (or tv at all) and it slipped to the back of my mind yet again.
But about 2 days ago I fell upon this remix that someone (ironically) named Drew G put together of the Don't Stop Believin' rendition Glee put together and I've been completely addicted to it ever since I heard it.
Well, tonight I finally had some time to myself to do whatever I want and decided to watch the 3 full episodes that Fox had posted up and it clinched my love for this show, the characters, and of course the very well done musical numbers that appear throughout the episodes.
But it also made me think and come to some realization's and before I get into them, I feel like I should give some background as to why these are such big realization's for me.
I have always had pretty low self-esteem/self-confidence but I try to cover it up as best as I can however I always am on edge around...well....basically everyone. There's really only 2 people that I feel 100% completely comfortable and don't have to think about everything I say, do, or act. I can just be true self without and worry and it is such a freeing feeling.
But this show made me realize how stupid it is to try and cover yourself up, or try to hide your true self from people because really...what's the point? Why not be yourself, find friends that accept you for who you are, not some mask that you hide behind? So that's what I'm going to try to do, I'm going to try to be myself. Truly.
