slow it down

music: Cold War Kids - Tell Me in the Morning

so here is my problem:
i habitually pick a random guy (usually a celebrity) who i think is marginally attractive and project onto them everything i want them to be until it doesn't matter that they're kind of a jerk and not that attractive because i'm so focused on what i imagine them to be like that i'm blind to reality.

it's ridiculous and immature and i hate it, but i'm sure a billion other teenage girls have this same problem.


but anyway.
i had a dream last night that my uncle died and i woke up crying.
it was awful!
i get upset just thinking about it.
at the same time, though, i love that a dream can affect you so strongly like that.
the right dream can just mess you up for the entire day, which can be a good or bad thing.
it's so amazing that your subconscious can have such a huge influence on your emotions.
