Morning Pages #31 Misunderstood


11:58am, cereal in front (well besides me). I haven’t had cereal in at least a month, it’s not because we don’t have milk. I’m writing this in my living room, it’s the first time I wrote morning pages on a table (albeit coffee table but, a table none the less) note to self: I need to buy a table for my room. I don’t know why I’m writing that; I’m not going to read this again after I type it out. Watching Abz 25 boybands of the 90s on Sky. Remember five, I would say they were my top 10 favourite boybands of all time.

My biggest fear, apart form Height, Rats, rejection and some dogs (not all) is being misunderstood. It only happens with people who have just met me, that I’ve known for less than a year. Hence the reason I hate talking to people on the phone or going to interviews. My friends and family know me, which can I just say I am so grateful for. The feeling of being in a room and not having to explain myself.   

‘No, no, no it’s not that I don’t want to be here, it just that I’m really nervous and anxious and…blah, blah, blah,’

I think it’s because I have a calming presence, people assume I don’t care. I am guessing because no one has ever said this to me. Which is dumb in my opinion, if I’m not talking, I’m thinking, duh.
It might have something to do with the fact that most of my friends are like me in some way, not all, some of my friends are the opposite of me (Introvert vs. Extrovert, you know). Even so, we all get nervous before we go on stage, metaphorically (or not in some cases) that’s something we have in common but, there’s a fine line between nervous and anxious.

33 minutes, see you when I see you.
