Made Another Personal Blog!! Didnt Know The Ask Feature Was On Side Blogs Lol!

Made another personal blog!! Didn’t know the ‘ask’ feature was on side blogs lol!

I was getting tired of logging off and logging in on two accounts (andddd changing color palettes every time)

I feel so bad for the 13 year old girls of today

A long rant about “aesthetics”

I was once 13, and I participated in countless of trends, but I still felt like I had a little freedom and individuality at that age.

But it feels like 13 year olds now NEED to fit into a mold COMPLETELY to fit in???

Scrolling on TikTok is so scary. Seeing these teens just completely form themselves into an “aesthetic” is so sickening and bizarre! I feel so bad..

Where’s the personality? Their own identity?

Again, I was 13 too, and i understand the struggles of finding yourself, but there’s seriously no need to force yourself into a mold!

The “clean girl aesthetic” is what makes me the most sickest. Like a 13 year old girl revamping her closet to such plain clothes, getting rid of any childhood memories in her room, having the same ‘aura posters,’ a plain phone wallpaper, and the list goes on.

I’m tearing up on the fact of these girls getting rid of things from childhood and preferring just plain, blank, and white.

There’s nothing wrong with liking the “clean girl aesthetic.” It’s something these 13 year old’s like. Yay interests! But it’s the fact that they’re forcing themselves into a mold and forcing themselves to embody the aesthetic like their life depends on it.

To the 13 year old girls: There’s nothing wrong with liking multiple, different things!

I have a marvel calendar on my cork board that has a pink zebra print frame that I ducktaped myself, I have a disco ball pillow along with Sanrio and Justin Bieber pillows, I have white sheets, I like doing a full beat of makeup, I play Valorant, I have Y2K bags, I have Star Wars keychains on my college backpack, I have sailor moon manga, I have multiple Ariana Grande perfumes, I enjoy talking about mental health, I have uggs and hokas but I also have “emo” boots and wedge sneakers circa 2014, my playlist can go from Harry Styles, Sabrina Carpenter, Kali Uchis to Korn, Deftones, Loathe, my laptop stickers have Star Wars and “preppy” flowers to Sanrio to Gigi Hadid, I sip from my Stanley or pink Hydroflask whilst I talk about the new Deadpool movie and can’t wait to watch It Ends With Us.

I like what I like.

I’m turning 20 this year and I’ve gone through SO MANY identity crisis — and I’ll still have plenty of identity crisis in the future. So, there’s no need to “find yourself” at just 13 years old! Just enjoy your interests, like what you like, whenever you like, etc.

Don’t force yourself into a mold

(I hope what I said in this post made sense)

I relate to your post so hard! My interests are super mixed and I feel like it’s hard to find other people like that because they are trying to only like things in the aesthetic that they saw on Pinterest or that their friends are

Yeah, the aesthetic epidemic suckssss!! It never gets easier to find people with the same interests 😖 Especially if you’re shy, butttt the more uncomfortable and the more socializing you do, the better you get at it!

The internet def helps though. If there are people on the internet with the same interests, there are bound to be people nearby with the same interests. Just have to (unfortunately) find them!

Also, sometimes people hide who they really are as well. Maybe your friends have the same interest(s) as you and you don’t know it! Maybe they’re embarrassed? I used to hide that I played video games for YEARS and liking things from the 2010s for like 3 years now, but now I’m not ashamed #yolo. Also only like 1-2 of my friends know that I journal 🙈

Hopefully one day your friends stop trying to be who they are not, and become who they truly want to be! <3

Edit: it’s also completely okay if your friends don’t like everything you like! You guys are friends for a reason! 🧘‍♀️💖

I wonder if I’m someone’s reason they joined (or rejoined) tumblr

I miss autumn sooo much right now 🍂💗
