| Well, lately I have been on a bit of a Dawson's Creek bend. What caused me to all of a sudden start watching it, I do not know. My friend has every episode on tape. And if I was going to start watching it, I was going to start from the beginning. I don't know when I first got the first season, but that is done now and I already started the second. Suprisingly enough, this show is really good. Many people think I am crazy for watching it, mainly because they are guys and I am too. Just because I am a guy, it doesn't mean I can't like emotional shows. I liked how the first season grabs you in and you start to get a feel for what each character is like, and the emotions they are going through. The seperate twists they through in are also a nice touch. But the thing that gets me the most about this show, is the fact that they make fun of the fact that its a TV show. This isn't scripted Dawson, it's real. Or mentioning how things run at a different rate if this was a TV show. The last episode of the first season was a great example of this. They start off takling about how they talk about cliffhangers in show and how things turn back to normal once the next season starts. Plus the constant movie referances that are blantant made fun of because they are copying the same thing. So all together the show has humor and drama, which is usually a great blend for any show in my mind.
I know, this seems more like a review type thing, but the fact is, I think this show is effecting me as a person. So in a sence this is the kind of thing that belongs in a journal. I mean, since I started watching the show, I have been looking at the world a different way. I can't really explain it, but watching the show almost puts a light on things I never noticed before. About relationships and friendships, and about life all together. i know this sounds pathetic and all, since it is just a TV show, but thats how I feel. I also seem to be getting more emotional towards things. I mean, things that irratate me, seem to piss me off even more. Things that make me happy, amplify that feeling. Loneliness is also amplified, which make this amplification suck even more. Why this is happening, I do not know. But I think it might have something to do with the constant change in emotion switches in the show that is causing it to me in real life. I mean I finished an entire season of this dramatic show in one weekend, and have even started the second. Maybe I should lay off the shows for awhile, but I really want to know what happens in these fictious peoples' lives. Wow, as I realize what I am writing, I realize how pathetic and retarded I am. So on that note, I think it's time to end today's journal. Until next time... Eat a Waffle.
