Just another blog by another young blogger trying to find out the meaning of everything she comes across.

Like or Love?
My friend experienced heartbreak today, in the hands of a girl that not everyone particularly liked. She wasn't the most popular or populars, but it does leave me a tad puzzled: are these school relationships going to stand the test of time? Will they seperate at the slightest touch? I myself have no romantic connections but I can see the pain that one kiss or one touch can indirectly hurt someone.

Personality rather than occupation (or, badly developed villains)
Yesterday I was watching a couple of movies from my earlier life (they were animated) and at the end the moral was pretty clear.
I. Hate. These. So. Much.
Don't get me wrong, I adore movies with a good moral but I would rather have it not presented directly. Maybe the reason why I hate these flicks is because it somewhat limits people's creativity. Especially for those kids that need to work out things for themselves.
For example, let us take a "good" character and have him/her a specific job or occupation. Scrap that, make him become an artist. (I have nothing against artists, I draw myself) and have the antagonist a scientist (I chose this because scientists are sometimes portrayed as evil). What message is this sending to little five year olds? That they should't be scientists?
I understand that these characters have usually done something wrong but I can't see why these movies would show different occupations or body types as reasons why the person/character evolved to be bad. Why not allow the villain to become one because of an event, mentality, or personality?
I hope I've written this clearly and that this only applies to certain villains. Not all.
Nothing deep or philosophical to say
Well, not really, unless you count me saying this as philosophical.
