i truly enjoy awkwardness. a good ol' awkward moment is positively one of my favorite things. now, i'm fully aware that the majority of people utterly dread the apperance of my unfortunate friend awkward sprung upon them causing some slightly uncomfortable moments that they wish wouldn't seem to last for so darn long. personally, i oddly anticipate the next time my stumbling and unrefined pal comes out to play in not only movies but preferably reality. there's nothing better than an excruciatingly long and tense silence filled with the figeting of hands, or the innapropriate-for-the-situation blurted out comment that seemed to spew out of you with no permission. oh, or how about my favorite, when you're slightly subconciously staring at a crush or someone you find kinda sorta cute and then they just so happen to catch your oddly creepy stares and make eye contact, thus you blush and quickly divert your eyes, pretending it never happened.
mmm, the awkwarness of it all is just so refreshing! why you my ask? personally, i feel these kind of moments are real, honest authentic moments when a person's walls are down and there's no acts of fakeness present. it's as if they're exposing their true self and that ego of theirs has fallen to the floor in small seizure like spasms. and why should we dread or be ashamed of authenticity? i think it's time we stop being so hard on ourselves and possibly take that ego (that we all have, although they differ in sizes) and but it away in the back of our closet and let awkward out to live a breathe for a little. you might just find yourself falling for him/her aswell.
being fake and not being your true self is ssoooo 2002, and i can just feel the escalating rise of real.
yours ever so truly (and akwardly),
