Once you get this you have to say five things you like about yourself, publicly, then send it to 10 of your favorite followers! Positivity is fun!

- musefulstranger tagged me!

So...

Walking the delicate balance of arrogance and humility:

1) my smile - it's distinctive and makes my face pretty

2) my memory, especially for poems and books and songs

3) the fact that I'm generally happy, I'm grateful for that and try to appreciate it every day

4) good genes - I don't really gain weight (yet), I don't get hangovers, I look a lot younger than I am

5) nice eyes

I have literally never done one of these before. Clearly positivity makes me uncomfortable. And I don't even know if I've correctly formatted this so be kind.

Whoa, whoa. Snape is an asshat? He isn’t a good guy? Ermagherd, my life is a lie! …no, but seriously. I feel your pain. I kind of laugh at people making “Snape was actually an asshole” posts. Like, duh. That’s why we like him.

YES everything you just said i would like to carve onto those posts 

and they get so many notes and it circulates around

Could you make me into a Disney villain/evil princess? There are pictures of me in my "me" tag. I have ridiculously curly, light brown hair, my skin is pale, and blue/grey eyes. My favorite colors are silver, royal purple, and black. My favorite villains are Ursula, Doctor Facilier, and Hades.

A gender bend Dr. Facilier!

10000000x yes to this. In the end it doesn’t matter if people think we are an inferior sex because Jesus knows what’s up and his approval is all we need.

You ship Bill and Sookie? I... I'm not the last unicorn? I'm not alone?! *tears of joy*

Yes, I’m a huge Bill/Sookie shipper. Still very proud of it too :) There a few of us on here that like them, we’re just over-run on here. I also think a lot of people are somewhat scared to express their opinion because they often get attacked for it. It’s always great to meet another Bill/Sookie fan :) Thanks for the follow

I have an honest question about Cersei, because I recently had an argument with a friend (he hates her). Do you think if Robert had been a good husband--like a warm, loving, supportive husband--Cersei would have been a different person? In the first season she seemed to ask Robert in earnest if they ever had a chance, as if at one point she was actually willing to love him. I'm not sure about the books.

I wish I could give you a positive answer, but I can’t. To reduce Cersei’s deep psychological issues to Robert’s behaviour alone would be taking away more than half of what Cersei Lannister is. Yes, Robert’s abuse was something that angered her, and yes it hardened her as well, made her colder. But Cersei was not a really good person to start with. Yesterday I saw someone comparing Sansa to Cersei, saying that with Sansa we are witnessing what it must have been for Cersei when she was made to wed Robert, but I strongly disagree with that comparison. Cersei was not a captive the way Sansa is. Yes, she was a captive in the way every woman is captive of the Westerosi society, but in marrying Robert she became Queen, and she wanted that. She became a victim, a true abuse victim, IN the marriage, and that certainly had ripercussions on her. But she wasn’t innocent to begin with. If even Robert had been a decent person throughout their marriage, even if he had been the best man to ever exist, Cersei’s priority would always be herself, and Jaime, and their children. To defend them she would have killed a kind king just as much as she did an abusive one. Of course this strongly depends on my headcanon for Cersei and what she was when she was a child. I have seen people that think she was just like Sansa or just like Arya, but in my opinion she was neither. She was literally Jaime when she was a child: “all she wanted was the world” as the song said, and she was never afraid to go for it, even if it meant others would get hurt. She was never a nice person in the proper sense of the word; the Cersei I picture is a very spoiled little child who did things spurred by anger when she realized she was treated differently from Jaime. And so no, I don’t think she would have changed that much even if Robert had been kinder, and this also applies to “what if she had married Rhaegar”. Because Cersei’s problems, the root of it, is Cersei herself. Others added to it, made it worse, heightened every sensation and multiplied it by 10, but in the end Cersei’s enemy is truly just Cersei.

I know them feels. Just try to think how freaking METAL you are, and pretend there’s electric guitars and a killer death growl following you everywhere you go.

Just want to let you know I support you 100% on that "sexualizing self-confidence" bone people seem hell-bent on picking with you. Calling a woman -- a complete stranger who has never seen you, never spoken to you -- "sexy" is not a compliment and her subsequent discomfort is not an insult. Guys shouldn't expect us dolls to giggle and blush every time they tell us we're sexy. Like, who da fuq?

Thank you for your support

Woo I’ve been tagged!

Rule 1: Always post the rules. Rule 2: Answer the questions the person who tagged you asked and write 12 new ones. Rule 3: Tag 12 new people and link them to the post. Rule 4: Let them know you’ve tagged them. - 1) if you could change one thing about the world, what would it be? The attitudes of people towards the issues that we face. Most of the world’s troubles, poverty, deforestation, mistreatment, etc. could all be solved if everyone actually tried to help. 2) if you were on death row, what would you choose as your last meal? Got a bit distracted here thinking about all the yummy foods… Haha, of probably say some sort of three course meal, like Chinese starters, a pasta dish and something Nutella and ice cream based ;) am I allowed to do that? 3) who is your favourite human alive right now? (yano that person that you’re just flippin glad that they exist) That’s a hard one. I can’t pick just one, but two girls that I absolutely adore are Tamar and Beth. 4) what is your favourite song right now? Wake Me Up by Ed Sheeran. 5) do you like children? Sometimes, haha. I do like them, unless I’m feeling introverted, but then again I don’t like anyone that much when I’m introverted ;) 6) Dresses or jeans? I love wearing dresses, but probably jeans because they’re so comfortable and I don’t have to worry about showing too much skin or it blowing up etc. and also because you can wear jeans with anything.  7) if you could give your children one piece of advise that they’d remember for their whole lives, what would it be?  Do not let anybody tell you that you cannot do something, do not believe it when people put you down. It is entirely up to you to decide how much you can achieve.   8) how do you think the earth came into existence?   The Big Bang. As a Christian Scientist, I sometimes find it difficult to find a middle ground. But I don’t see any issues with God’s creation of the universe being the Big Bang.   9) if you could go on holiday to any country and everything would be paid for you, where would you go and what would you do?  If it were to be all expenses paid then I’d go somewhere really expensive ;) haha no I’d love to go to Thailand. I would love to tour it and learn about the culture.   10) do you want to get married? why?  Hahahahahaha, I spend about 99% of my free time thinking about this xD yes I do, I really want to get married. I want to share my life with someone, and I want a partner so we can go through our spiritual lives together. It’s a part of life that I’d really like to have.   11) tell me your happiest memory.  I can’t think of one happiest memory, so ill give you a couple of happy ones. The first was last year at Soul Survivor, in one of the evening meetings, we were singing and the instruments stopped and it was just 6000 voices worshipping and the Holy Spirit was there and I just felt like I belonged there doing that forever. I think it was a glimpse of Heaven. Another, perhaps slightly less profound one was when I visited the WWoHP in Florida. It was in the height of my HP obsession and it was just so incredible to be walking through Hogsmede that I cried :P   12) what is the best thing to happen to you this week?  Errr, I don’t know, I’ve not done anything this week! My elephant earrings from LilyFair arrived, and that was a happy little thing in the middle of exam stress ^.^ also the weather has been lovely this week.

If so which?
