You know my Name, NOT my Story

"You know my name, not my story. You’ve heard what I’ve done, not what I’ve been through. So stop judging me."

Time does not change us, it just unfolds us...

I'm sure most of you have heard or seen these quotes before; I think they have a lot of meaning to them & I'm sure we can all relate to them in our own way. The first quote for me has gone threw my head thousands of times through out my life b/c people will learn my name, then since I'm nice to most people when I 1st meet them (I'm not gonna be rude to a stranger/acquaintance) they automatically think that's how I normally am & start to think they know me personally just b/c I'm being polite. Normally I don't speak to anyone unless they speak to me 1st or I need some help, I am an introvert after all. As for the "my story" part, we all have one & I'm one of those private people who keeps it to their self & nobody knows except the 2 important people that I always talk about on this blog, LOL.

As for the part about "You've heard what I've done, not what I've been through" that goes back to me keeping what I've been through (my story) to myself. Some people who've read my blog might think everything I write on here tells my story or even think it makes them know everything about me, but that's a big mistake b/c this isn't a diary & you guys are all only reading what I allow you to know about me; what I share on here I don't really care who else knows about or reads etc. b/c it's not something that's a secret + I keep all my business to myself.

If I had to guess what people have heard about me most likely they'd say "She's the girl who doesn't talk" if they were someone I went to school with b/c I hated everyone there & there was no point in talking to a bunch of ignorant people who only cared about parties where you drink until you blacked out & tried to start drama every chance they got, ugh. But if it were one of my close friends telling someone about me, they'd say "She's really animated, witty, awesome, is an otaku, fun to hang out with" the list can go on b/c the people I hang out with are the best. And if it were one of my readers telling someone about me, IDK what ya'll would say maybe "She's the girl who blogs about random stuff & has an afro/natural hair"

Now for the "So stop judging me" part, everyone thinks I'm some young 16 year old & I'm really "sweet" "innocent" must be "girly" blah, blah, blah. But in reality I'm a young adult about to start her 20's & I prefer to be around people my own age (not "close" to it), or people a little older than me or either just guys b/c females are just way too petty these days + I'm not even girly & the only girl I like to do anything with is my BFF Mimi b/c we're exactly the same ;D Also people around my age or younger will treat me/think I'm one of their little friends that they can talk to however they want & not treat me with respect. I don't care if I look young, I'm still an adult whether people want to except the fact or not + I just really hate immature people and can't stand to be around them. There is such a big difference of how people treat me when I walk out the house bare faced & when I walk out with makeup on, it's so messed up. *btw, I’m not dependent on makeup at all*

Now onto the 2nd quote "Time does not change us, it just unfolds us" for me this is the same as people thinking you've "changed" since whenever they met you (or last saw you) & in reality you haven't 'changed' at all, you've just grown up & matured since the last time you were with/saw them. I'm guilty of probably "changing" each month b/c I'm always getting into new things & wanting to learn more about it or might find something else I like & start getting into that once I'm bored of the other thing, LOL. But besides things I'm interested in, I also change by getting more mature & that's probably why I can't be around people younger than me. I'm unfolding into a great person & along the way have gotten rid of some people in my life b/c they couldn't handle growing up or maturing, it's better to get rid of them than to keep hanging around them & suffering from their ignorance.

What do these quotes mean to YOU??

 

At the beginning of this video this girl was talking about how when people hate on you, don't worry about it b/c they don't know you & don't see what you go through everyday etc. I really love her & all her videos, hope I can be like her when I start making videos =D
