Description: Coming in next is Sabrina Fabray, she is Grace's younger twin making her the youngest of the Fabray siblings. She is basically like the other version of Santana Lopez, the one who always protects her older twin sister and all of her friends. She is a complex character who have hooked up and dated a lot of people ever since she is in middle-school because she can't be committed to one person, she was afraid that they would only be using her for her body and after she actually grow attach to them they'd leave her. She is the favorite of their parents who often forgets her older twin, Quinn mostly hates Sabrina cause she is always the center of attention without working for it. A pageant girl who stopped due to her focusing on her studies. She is not the one to back down to a fight and will definitely hurt someone to protect her twin sister and friends. She takes a liking to the quarterback, Sam Evans who she thinks is perfect and changes her perspective in love. Sabrina is different from her older twin, she wears skimpy clothing and is not afraid to show off skin, she's very confident of her body. Sabrina will be one of the main characters as she is also one of the original New Directions.
I know it's been months since I've last been active on this Tumblr and there's so much that has been going on in my personal life that has kept me from doing the things I love, but I promise I am back to being hard at work to make my story Gleeboot into something great.
It took me awhile to get the motivation to write Gleeboot again but thanks to a friend of mine being willing to lend her character to the story, the writing has been flowing ever since.
With that I want to do an introduction post to our latest character joining the Gleeboot which will be coming your way very shortly. I hope you guys are still as excited as I am for this project and as a thank you for your patience, I want to post a little sneak peak into what I've been working on for the past year so enjoy the first page of Gleeboot!
Flashback to the year 2009 where a teenaged Will Schuester is nervously looking out from behind the curtain at the massive crowd that is in Branson, Missouri chanting loudly and clapping along to the music that is playing in the background as Will takes a deep breath trying to shake off the nerves of the upcoming Nationals competition that his show choir ‘The Singsations’ are about to perform in front of thousands of people.
His show choir director, a middle aged kind hearted woman, places her hand on his shoulder “Come on William, why don’t you join the others,” the director said softly. “Yes Miss Adler,” Will said softly as he got into the show circle with the other members of the Singsations. “Gather round children, gather round,” Miss Adler called out as the remaining students not in the show circle quickly joined it. “I am so incredibly proud of every single one of you and how far you’ve come this year. For some of you, it’s your senior year and this is the last time you will be a part of this group, so I want you all to finish the year as strong as you started it,” Miss Adler said seriously as Will seemed to be taking everything she said to heart.
“I want you to take these parting words with you as you take the stage, Glee is about opening yourself up to joy, and the joy you have brought me and so many others will be something I know you will be able to look back on proudly and talk about. Now let’s go out there and give the performance of our lives, yes?” Miss Adler said as she placed her hand into the show circle which the other members followed suit as they all yelled out ‘Aaaaaaaamazing!”, pulling their hands out and getting into position to perform.
“Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm welcome to our next act, all the way from Lima, Ohio it’s The Singsations!” the announcer said as the crowd roared with applause as The Singsations took the stage beginning to perform the Journey hit from the 80’s, any fan of Glee would know, ‘Don’t Stop Believin’.’
Will sang the background passionately smiling brightly as two of his other clubmates had sung the lead, a tall sandy haired boy with a striking smile and a petite blonde girl with a powerful voice that rivaled any diva on Broadway. Will couldn’t help but be enamored with the blonde who seemed to sing effortlessly with every note she hit. Miss Adler couldn’t help but beam with pride watching the group proudly as they sang the most beautiful version of ‘Don’t Stop Believin’ which made the crowd roar with applause once again as Will stood onstage catching his breath, knowing at that very moment he had truly been a part of something special.
Flashforward to current times, the year 2025 to be exact as a now adult Will Schuester seemed to be lost in a daydream of his high school glory days as his very annoyed wife, Terri seemed to be trying to get his attention. “Will! Did you even hear a word I said?” his wife snapped stubbornly. “What?” Will said dazedly, seeming to snap out of the daydream he was in. “Honestly, sometimes I wonder why I even bother speaking,” Terri scoffed, annoyed, flipping her perfectly polished honey blonde hair over her shoulder as she put on her apron for ‘Sheets-N-Things’.
“I’m sorry honey…I was just thinking about the good old days, you know back in high school when we didn’t have a care in the world and had fallen in love,” Will smiled softly cupping his wife’s face as she scowled. “High school is over. For both of us,” Terri snapped, annoyed, pulling away from Will “I know you still work in that God-forsaken place when you could be doing so much more.” “Terri, we’ve been over this. I don’t want to be an accountant,” Will exhaled loudly, knowing exactly where this conversation was going since many of their conversations seemed to lead up to that same fight.
Hello to my lovely readers,
Today I wanted to speak out on another controversal issue and I know many of you may not agree with me on this, which is totally fine, you are all entitled to your own opinions, however, this is something that has recently been getting out of hand in regards to the glee cast, specifically Dianna Agron who many of you know I've been an avid supporter of since 2009, so, here of course is my little rant more to air own my frustrations and grievances in a safe space known as my Tumblr.
**Disclaimer** All that I'm about write is once again only my OPINIONS and are not a direct attack on anyone or anything just things I have noticed going on which make me terribly sad.
I know a large issue on social media has been being pro palastine or being a zionist which is something I am very uninformed about so, as for me personally, I have no opinion on the issue at hand other than I'm an avid peace and love kind of girlie who doesn't like to get involved in conflicts which is why I'm largerly uninformed.
However, what I am disguisted in seeing is people claiming xyz is a zionist because of collabation deals with a company who is on that side or past actions such as going to Israel in 2016.
When a celebrity takes an endorsement deal it goes typically through their agents who tend to book these gigs for them, so the celebrity is not always informed on what these companies stand for and typically are in need of large cooperations support to make money.
The companies values and the celebrity's values do NOT always align so it is disguisting to me that people are cancelling those who are taking deals from large known companies all because the company seems to be zionists.
Many of these celebrities just know they are booked for a Starbucks ad for example without giving it another though on who Starbucks supports. Same goes for those people who are still buying drinks from the company, most people do not put every company they buy from through such an intense background check that off the top of their head they know who they support.
Sometimes it's just that they enjoy the product the company produces and that's why they accept these adverstisements. It has nothing to do with their view on Palastine vs. Isarel. I just wish people would keep that in mind when they are chatizing a celebrity for taking such opportunities.
Also, many people are using outdated information to assume what someone's political opinion is. Just because someone does not speak out, it doesn't mean that they are against what you are for.
As someone who is highly unpolitical and has been in the past, I don't speak out on issues because I am mostly uninformed as I stated earlier. I have my own personal opinions on pressing issues that affect me but as for a war that I am not apart of, I don't involve myself because I just feel like it's not my place to speak out since I have not been affected by it.
For those who have loved ones in either country or have hertiage in Palastine or Isarel, I completly understand why you're passionate and want to speak out and I commend you on it. I just wish people wouldn't expect everyone and their brother to voice their opinions on issues when it's hard to find credible sources who aren't biased or have an agenda in my personal opinion.
Just please try to handle everyone with a bit of grace who may not always be as informed or want to speak out on such issues. I hope some of you can find it in your hearts to automatically cancel people based on assumptions of their views.
Peace and Love Always,
Jazzie
Hello everyone,
It's been awhile since I updated I've been going through a lot of changes in my personal life since the last time I posted here and I wanted to start a brand new series on here just because I have some motivation to do so. As some of you may have read on my Wattpad, I wrote a story called "Twins Fabray" about Quinn her twin Grace Fabray and as much as I adored the story and wanted to make it an ongoing series, I feel as though most of the time other than Grace's storylines, everything in the canon world remained the same which is why instead I will be posting all of my headcanons for Grace in the original series here, at least as much of them as I have figured out. I sincerely hope you enjoy this update and what changes I've made to the original series regarding Quinn and Grace.
I have been still trying to work on Gleeboot but my time has been very limited nowadays with a new job which I'm working longer hours at. Please bare with me if it takes me a long time to get most things out. I love you all!
Jazzie
Introducing our very first of many original characters in the gleeboot series, Grace Fabray
Here are some of the basic information that you'll need about Grace going into the series:
Full name: Grace Marie Fabray
Nickname(s): Gracie
Prononus: She/Her
Age: 15
High School Year: Freshman
Sexuality: Pansexual
3 Characterstic traits: Shy, Compassionate, and Honorable
Close Friends: Kurt Hummel and Mercedes Jones
Crush: Brittany S. Pierce
Talents: Dancing, Singing, Acting, Writing
Dream School: NYADA
Dream Job: She's still finding her way being a freshman but she is very passionate about helping others and would love to one day be an arts teacher or if she's feeling brave enough to go on and star on Broadway.
Favorite Artist: Taylor Swift
Favorite Musical: Waitress
Description: Coming straight from Twins Fabray into the Gleeboot universe is Grace Fabray. I believe Sydney Sweeney's look is a lot of how I always envisioned Grace to look which is why I used her picture. She's slightly more curvy than Quinn and quite busty which gives her all the wrong attention which is why she typically wears bulky sweaters and loose fitting dresses. Grace is Quinn's younger sister in this story, who is passionate about the arts as well as her studies. Grace stands her ground on her beliefs and isn't afraid to immerse herself in things others find as uncool or outdated. She also is coming to terms with her sexuality and is crushing on the clueless but kind cheerio in Brittany S. Pierce. She is incredibly caring and defensive of those close to her, especially her sister Quinn but isn't afraid to stand up to her and tell her when she's wrong. Grace will be one of the main characters being that she is an original member of the New Directions.
Gleeboot Main Character Descriptions (Original Cast)
Hey everyone,
Yes, I know you all know the basics of each Glee Character and what their personalities are, however, what I am going to show is who they are in my series and what issues I will be focusing on fixing for each character. I sincerely hope you enjoy this rebrand of Glee and will consider reading my rewrite.
Also, I consider Blaine, Sam, and Coach Beiste part of the original cast so I will be including descriptions of them as well since they all played large parts in the show.
Starting off with the very first character shown, the queen herself, Sue Sylvester.
What went wrong: Sue became a one-dimensional villian as the series went on with an irrational hatred for the glee club and its director Will Schuester making the story predictable. Whatever growth Sue had in her feelings towards the club was always rejected in favor of her being their biggest obstacle which became tiresome as the seasons went on. She also was given an insane storyline of being obsessed with Kurt and Blaine's love story in the final season.
What went right: The exploration of Sue's family namely her mother and sister truly gave the depth that was needed to show why Sue became who she was. Her softness with Jean (her sister) and Becky were always so heartwarming and what made Sue a person rather than a characture.
What this means for Gleeboot: Sue will absolutely remain the villian until the needed character developement is cause for her to grow and have new enemies (ex. Coach Beiste's arrival and cutting Sue's budget in Season 2, Coach Roz Washington trying to take Sue's job in Season 3) to keep the story fun and interesting while still keeping the edge to Sue that's needed to make her hilarious yet effective.
Up next is a character who needs a lot of redeeming the coach of the New Directions, Will Schuester
What went wrong: Where do I even begin? Will came off as incredibly creepy with his relationships with students instead of being the inspirational teacher he was intended to be. Also he was incredibly toxic in his relationship with Emma as the seasons went on putting her down constantly and never seeming to support her hopes and dreams which was so uncharacteristic of who Will was shown to be in the earlier seasons of Glee. He also stood his ground on issues that clearly didn't matter (ex. When he got pissed at Sue for banning twerking in school rather than agreeing to help Unique get a gender-netural bathroom). He also bent over backwards to appease Rachel which he was rightfully called out for but the show made it seem like whoever did so was 'jealous' or 'complaining for no good reason'.
What went right: In the first season Will was mostly everything we could hope for as an inspirational teacher particularly in the episode 'Wheels' when he had the entire Glee Club spend a week in wheelchairs so they could understand the hardships wheelchair bound Artie went through. He also rightfully tried to showcase and lift up the entire club earlier rather than focus on his two favorites (Finn and Rachel).
What this means for Gleeboot: Unlike Glee, Mr. Schuester will not be the prime focus but rather a supporting character as the teacher of the New Directions who tries to inspire the group and give everyone an equal shot to feel special. He also will be a teacher that the students lean on for support with issues that they are going through but he will also have his own personal life separated from the club, boundaries will be important.
Moving onto the next character showcase and the first of the original New Directions, Mr. Kurt Hummel.
What went wrong: Honestly I believe a certain writer who shall remain nameless sadly put his own predjustices and voices them through Kurt (the whole Kurt is biphobic story arc anyone?). Which is so unfortunate because Kurt was one of the most accepting characters of anyone who was different. I also believe that same writer would do so many out of character things to make him seem like he was in the wrong all the time which is so sad because so many people looked up to Kurt.
What went right: Kurt was one of the first mainstream gay character which helped and inspired so many closeted gay people to feel like there was someone like them on TV. He also was so proud himself that it was inspiring to watch week in and week out especially in the earlier seasons.
What this means for Gleeboot: Since Gleeboot will be taking place in 2024, so much in the world has changed towards the majority of people's attitudes towards the LGBTQ+ community especially in schools where any sort of homophobic slander that Kurt faced would've resulted in displinary action. While unfortunately homophobia still exists especially in a small conservative town like Lima was shown to be a lot of Kurt's early arc won't change as much as far as bigoted students bullying him but the faculty at McKinley High would most likely be a lot more helpful than they were on the show. Kurt will also be one of the most accepting people in the club who will help so many others come into their own.
For our next character, I will not be showing the actor's face out of respect for all of his victims but the character is definitely a controversal one as Noah 'Puck' Puckerman
What went wrong: A lot of Puck's earliest storylines are very wrong, especially in relation to what happened that night with him and Quinn. Unfortunately, the show played it off as just cheating but there are so many indications to it wasn't consentual which is problematic in itself. Also Puck going onto 'date' Kitty is also quite problematic because of the age gap between them.
What went right: Puck's redemption arc from beign a bully to ending up in the air force. I feel like his character is actually one of the few characters who benefitted from the later seasons rather than was hurt by those apperances, although his role was significantly reduced compared to the other characters we've discussed.
What this means for Gleeboot: A lot of Puck's behavior would need to change in order for him to be a rootable character but I believe it would change the essence of his character too much to do that, so Puck will remain a very contraversal character who will eventually learn and grow from his mistakes.
Our next character is our leading male of the group as far as Glee was concerned, Finn Hudson
What went wrong: Instead of being the rootable leader of the Glee Club, Finn did many unforgivable things that to me seemed so out of character for him most importantly being the way he outed Santana in Season 3. Also encouraging Quinn to cheat on Sam in Season 2 made absolutely no sense and seemed more of a Puck thing to do than Finn. Him kissing Emma when she was freaking out in Season 4? Not okay.
What went right: Finn was the glue that held the New Directions together and there were so many occasions that it showed. He was a natural born leader who helped the New Directions when they were at their lowest.
What this means for Gleeboot: Finn was definitely an imperfect character, especially at the beginning of the show but as he emerses himself in the group he learns that image isn't everything and eventually finds his way to do what he loves even though it isn't what's cool, performing. There also will not be any physical cheating from his character.
Our next character is my personal favorite and one that I have done many deep dives into, Quinn Fabray
What went wrong: Much like Kurt, Quinn seemed to be a punching bag for certain writers of the show who took out their frustrations on her leading to her doing many things that were out of character. Also like Sue, Quinn was frequently reverted back into a one-dimensional villian that stood in the way of what many fans saw as the love story of the show, Finn and Rachel.
What went right: Quinn had great character development particularly in Season 1 as well as during Season 3 where she was faced with the reality that popularity wasn't everything and eventually found her way, getting into her dream school Yale.
What this means for Gleeboot: Quinn is such a multi-dimensional character that goes through one of the most intense transformations which will be showcased throughout the series with her going from villian to rootable hero who we all want to see succeed and feel all the pain she goes through. Unlike the original show all character growth will stick.
Moving onto one of my least favorite characters from the entire show, Rachel Berry.
What went wrong: Instead of being the rootable ambitious girl that show wanted us to see, Rachel was incredibly selfish and did cruel things to innocent people (ex. sending Sunshine, who she just met to a crack house) or ruined her friendships by needing to be number 1 (ex. Running for senior class president despite knowing it would hurt Kurt). It got to the point where many didn't want her to have a happy ending, especially when she began to self-sabatoged her chances of her dream role in Funny Girl in Season 5.
What went right: In my opinion not much went right on the writer's behalf for Rachel who was supposed to be the main protaginist. Season 1 was the best showcase of Rachel being the underdog that so many were inspired to root for. She did at times grow like in Season 2 when she tried to help Sam win the duets competition but sadly the positives were shortlived since she was rarely ever put in her place when she was in the wrong.
What this means for Gleeboot: Rachel will maintain her competitive edge and ambition to become a Broadway star but with the self-awareness that she had throughout the first season where she looked out for the group besides just herself, but that doesn't mean if an opportunity comes up, she won't just jump on it.
We are heading back to the adults of Season 1 with our OCD guidance conselour, Emma Pillsbury.
What went wrong: Emma became religated to Will's wife and love interest and we lost all of what was special about her by the end of the series which is sad. Her and Finn kissing making her freak out and not want to get married was such a strange storyline that never quite sat right with me. Also her not having sex with Carl even after marrying him quite frankly made no sense. She was willing to lose her virginity to Will in Season 1 so what changed?
What went right: Emma was shown to be incredibly caring and compassionate for the students which most of the other teachers didn't seem to have other than maybe Will. Though she had her struggles with OCD she did try her best to overcome them eventually going to consuling herself which was an interesting story arc.
What this means for Gleeboot: Much like Will, Emma will play far less of a leading role in the show and will be a supporting character that many of the students will go to with their varying issues and she will do everything she can to offer them help and support.
Our next adult is someone we love to hate, Terri Schuester
What went wrong: Terri being brought back in the Legen of Doom was probably one of the worst things that could've happened during the series. While her character was always shown to be off her rocker, Season 2 was laughably bad with the attempts the writers made to try to sell her as evil then redeem her in the end by having her get the New Directions tickets.
What went right: I feel like her arc in Season 1 was incredible showing how manipulative she was by trying to convince her then husband that she really was pregnant and finding an alternative way to get a child. While in the end they weren't right for each other, I think Season 1 had a more fitting end to their relationship.
What this means for Gleeboot: Much like the other adults mentioned before, Terri will play far less of a main role in the series and be relegated to a supporting role. I will still be showcasing how awful she can be towards her husband and how she would do anything to keep him but there will be far less of an emphasis on it.
Up next we are going back to the students with someone who I completely believed deserved better though I haven't touched as much on it as I would've liked to, Mercedes Jones.
What went wrong: Mercedes in truth was barely ever paid her due with how much she truly brought to the New Directions, frequently being relegated to a background singer who gave out the last jaw dropping note which truly was a complete shame because in my opinion she was quite possibly the strongest vocalist of the entire show (I'm always torn between her and Santana on that one). I also didn't love some of the writing of Mercedes, particually towards her treatment of Sam in the later seasons who had always done everything to show her how much he cared about her.
What went right: Mercedes was shown to be a strong woman who didn't take anyone's nonsense and was one of the few characters who dared to stand up to Rachel which I find commendable. She was a worthy advesary who pursued her dreams and ended up becoming a successful artist.
What this means for Gleeboot: Mercedes will have much more of a strong prescene throughout the series and will not be relegated to a glofied backup singer as she said "I'm Beyoncé, I ain't no Kelly Rowland" and that is exactly how she'll be treated.
Going into the New Directions, our next showcased student is Tina Cohen-Chang.
What went wrong: Tina was severly underdeveloped as a character which lead to many confusing choices as the show went on with her becoming quite the diva which made no sense to the shy character we were introduced to in the first season. Tina also became quite selfish and obsessed with popularity which once against left many scratching their heads wondering who truly is Tina Cohen-Chang?
What went right: I absolutely loved when the writers showed Tina to be supportive, especially of her boyfriends (ex. trying to help Artie learn to dance in Season 1, submitting applications to dance schools for Mike because it was his dream in Season 3). This was the true heart of who she was deep down. She also wasn't afraid to stand her ground on her beliefs (ex. When she felt she wasn't being treated right by Artie she stood up to him).
What this means for Gleeboot: First and foremost, Tina will not be faking a stutter in Season 1, to me it was one of the most unnessarcy storylines of the show. I know the character was originally supposed to have a stutter but I think eliminating the whole stutter part completly would work. Tina will be a very shy and reserved girl who struggles to find her voice as part of the New Directions but eventually finds her courage and becomes a strong woman.
Moving onto Tina's best friend, Artie Abrams.
What went wrong: The writers truly lost the essence of who Artie was turning him into a misogynsitic jerk most of the time who degrated women, something he clearly wasn't when the show first started.
What went right: Artie was great respresentation for those who were physically disabled being that the character was in a wheelchair and was able to show so many people that their disablities don't have to limit their lives.
What this means for Gleeboot: Artie will return to form as the sweet but dorky guy that we grew to love in the first season. While he may be influenced by many of the other guys in the club, he won't turn as misogynistic towards his girlfriends/love interests.
Our final character who made her debut in the pilot is Santana Lopez
What went wrong: I feel like a lot of Santana's insults went too far, especially ones where she body shamed many of the New Directions (ex. Finn, Mercedes, Quinn). Santana also manipulating Brittany who is supposed to be the love of her life without any consequences was questionable at best.
What went right: Santana was one of the first mainstream lesbian characters who helped so many people be seen and heard. Naya's portrayl of the character was perfection. The developement of Santana was one of the few characters who's arc felt complete and well written.
What this means for Gleeboot: Not a whole lot will change for Santana character wise other than her insults evolving to 2024 where she will still roast the hell out of everyone but keep weight out of it.
Did you know that dolphins are just gay sharks? Up next is the third member of the Unholy Trinity, Brittany S. Pierce.
What went wrong: Like so many airheaded characters as the seasons went on Brittany became dumbed down which was unfortunate. Also making Brittany into a secret genius made absolutely no sense and making it canon that her biological father was Stephen Hawking also felt in really poor taste.
What went right: Brittany was a hilarious comic relief with her one liners in Season 1 and her relationship with Santana was one that inspired so many fans.
What this means for Gleeboot: Brittany was a great respresentation for bisexuals everywhere who like many of the characters made them feel like they were being seen, unfortunately the show never fully embraced Brittany as a bisexual and that is something I would love to change in this story. There also will be no 'Brittany is secretly a genius and goes to MIT' storyline instead Brittany will be mainly focused on her dancing which is a huge part of who she is.
Now moving on to the forgotten football player and New Directions member, Matt Rutherford
What went wrong: We literally learned nothing about Matt other than he was a football player, he was one of the strongest dancers, he was friends with Mike, and he might have had a thing with Santana at one point. Other than that he was a huge mystery which is sad considering he was an original member of the New Directions.
What went right: Honestly, not much for poor Matt which is why his actor left not wanting to be reglated to the background.
What this means for Gleeboot: Matt will absolutely be more developed in the series with him being more than just a body for the New Directions. I don't want to reveal too much about his character but he will have love interests as well as a backstory of why he leaves the New Directions after Season 1.
Finally, from the original cast here is the Asian Dancer himself, Mike Chang.
What went wrong: Much like Matt, we hardly got to know Mike outside of his relationship with Tina only getting very limited characterization in 'Asian F' which was in Season 3!
What went right: Mike's relationship with Tina was one of only two things that was fully realized, the other was his passion for dance which is clearly showcased in his defining episode in Season 3.
What this means for Gleeboot: Like Matt, Mike will be developed a lot more because his dynamic with his parents, particularly his father who didn't approve of him pursuing dance instead of law would be so intersting to pursue.
Moving onto the our main cast who joined the show after Season 1, starting off with one of the best teacher characters introduced, Coach Beiste!
What went wrong: Okay, I really hope my intention is seen rather than what I'm about to write being misconstrued but I truly feel like the show undermined the character of Coach Beiste by making her the first transgender character which did not suit who we had grown to know Coach Beiste as. If the show had wanted a transgender storyline I fully believe they already had the character there that was right for it in Unique, who had already shown signs that she was a trans woman but with Alex Newell not being a member of the main cast, it seemed that role got assigned to Dot Marie Jones as Coach Beiste which to me didn't suit the character at all.
What went right: Coach Beiste was shown to be a caring and kind person who valued their students no matter what. They also generously bought Artie a ReWalk to help keep Brittany's faith about Santa being real which was adorable.
What this means for Gleeboot: Coach Beiste will remain a female coach in this series because to me she always identified herself as 'such a girl' and it felt strange for the show to do a 180 on that in its final season. While this may be contraversal, it's what I truly feel is in character for Coach Beiste. We will have a transgender character in Unique when she arrives.
And now we move on to my favorite male character, Sam Evans.
What went wrong: Sam went from being an absolute gentleman and a sweetheart to becoming a sex obsessed clone of Finn as the show went on. I also hated how they made him like every other guy encouraging Mercedes to cheat on her boyfriend Shane. Not to mention the ridiculous storyline of him being hyponotized to be with Rachel which was ridiculous.
What went right: Sam was patient and kind to a healing Quinn after the year she had. He also was one of the first guys to truly stand up for Kurt and be willing to duet with him which is something none of them would've done. Sam was also such a dedicated boyfriend to all of his girlfriends which made him endearing and adorable.
What this means for Gleeboot: Sam will maintain his sweet and caring nature towards the New Directions and will be one of the first popular kids to call out the town's homophobia towards Kurt. He also will be a loyal boyfriend to whoever he dates, never once cheating or encouraging cheating on anyone.
Our last and final character we will talk about is one that became so popular, he became a mainstay in Blaine Anderson.
What went wrong: Blaine went from a very sure of himself posh character to becoming somewhat of whiny and clingy manchild who couldn't go without contact from his boyfriend which led him to cheating. It was so disappointing to see the downfall of a once great and promising character.
What went right: Blaine was Kurt's rock through a rough time in his life where he was being severely bullied for being gay by a closeted gay. He also helped Kurt adjust once he transferred to Dalton Academy and slowly feel in love with him.
What this means for Gleeboot: I'm going back to basics for Blaine where he will be much more like he was in Season 2, sure of who he is but kind of clueless with love but learns along the way with the help of Kurt.
And that's all for the character descriptions. I hope you enjoyed a small preview of what's to come as far as Gleeboot is concerned. If you have any questions or comments you can leave them down below but as always please be respectful.
Hey everyone!
So, I wanted to give you all a preview of an upcoming series I will be hard at work on and something I have been wanting to do for years now but was always so afraid to. If you all have interest in this series please let me know as well as suggestions. Hope you enjoy reading the little summary of 'Gleeboot'.
Summary: The year was 2009 when a new TV show about a group of misfits in a Glee Club took the world by storm. The show was predicted to be a beloved classic that would inspire many generations to come. Unfortunately, as the show progressed it lost the spark that had made so many fall in love with it which is why the show ended after only 6 seasons seeming to have lost its heart and vision of what would inspire so many. But what if we could turn back the clock, start over again and make the show what it was always meant to be?
Here's where 'Gleeboot' begins as Glee for a brand new generation. So much in the world has changed since the original airing and the characters will be newly realized versions of what the original show had with continuity being a prime focus.
Most of my other stories have been focused from the original time frame of glee (2009-2015) however, gleeboot will start in 2024 and will feature music currently popular as well as music from the past that suits the scene and each character.
Join me in welcoming in a new era of 'glee' that can make the phenomenon one that will inspire all for years to come.
As you may have noticed I have taken a fairly long hiatus from Tumblr. I've decided to use this account as what Twitlonger used to be for me which is to post lenghty things that don't just fit on my account so, I will be posting here a lot more frequently come 2024 with lots of new and exciting content, especially regarding the Sims verse so if you're a fan, please stick around.
What can I say, 2023, for me was truly the year from hell. There were so many wonderful things that occured throughout the year (mainly the concerts and movies I got to attend especially the Eras Tour) but for the vast majority of the year I found myself enthralled in a deep depression like I had never had before.
The reason for said depression, sadly isn't a new one I've had in my life, people decided to say untrue things about me which blindsided me. Especially since it came from people who had barely spoken to and hadn't met before.
I was incredibly fortunate to have friends who stood by and defended me against these allegations saying it was something I would never do which I greatly appreciate that the vast majority of people I've met could speak to my character in a great way.
However, that incident and others since then in what is known as the ORG (Online Reality Games) community became a place of toxicity to me which has led to me going on an indefinate hiatus from being a part of any of those games ever again.
Unfortunately, what became apparent to me as time went on was in order to get away from it, I would have to let go of most social media platforms I was using which is where this post really comes into play.
For my new beginnings of 2024, I decided to focus a lot more on myself and the things I love rather than be a part of fandoms that I have felt were incredibly toxic. So, with that being said, this is kind of my goodbye post to the ORG community, at least for now.
To the friends I've made along the way,
I'm still willing to talk more through messaging via twitter or instagram but I will no longer be using Skype or Zoom. My reasons for this is just because I want to get away from the community, not from all of you. I just know many of you are embedded in the community and I don't want to be a downer who complains if you talk about it since you guys love it. For me, it's no longer a safe space or at this point a space I intend to be a part of in any way, so if you could please respect that.
Another new beginning I'm going to start in 2024, is to focus on making videos. I know I promised videos in the past and haven't delivered and I sincerely apologize for that but my life itself has been chaotic with a lot of medical and physical issues besides the mental and emotional ones.
I will be starting a few Sims series following an Eras Legacy Challenge (Something I am curently testing out before I officially post the rules because yeah I'm a perfectionist) as well as the long awaited Quinn Fabray series I promised you all.
I also will try to do an outfit haul of the many gorgeous pieces I own that were worn by Quinn Fabray. If you want me to recreate any scenes let me know, I may do them over TikTok or YouTube depending on the lenght.
I also will be focusing on my writing which is something that has brought me so much joy. I'm probably unfortunately going to abandon the projects I have been working on and will be completely starting a new.
Gleewrite and Twins Fabray will be making a comeback but in a very different way than I had started them.
Sorry for the long rambly article you have to read but I felt I wanted to update everyone on what I'm hoping to focus on.
I feel like it’s not talked about much, but I think it’s incredibly caring of dianna to try to raise money for the girls club New York. She’s a very loving person with such a kind heart and it’s not talked about much😭
So completely agree! She just has the sweetest and biggest heart
Do you love Glee? Do you ever wish you could sing as your favorite character? Well now is your chance to showcase your talents in my Glee rewrite called Gleewrite. You will only be asked to record songs that weren’t actually featured on the show. I will send you the songs early on as well as your parts and if you could record the full versions when the time comes that would be great.
Sign up here
I thought this season I'd be Sourin
All the love I'd be outpourin'
To my wonderful Cava tribe
With them have a great vibe
Now we're getting down to the Wyre
I hope no one can call me a liar
I want to thank those of you who stick around through all my crazy rants and long Glee posts. You guys are the real MVPs and I will always appreciate you.
Anyway onto why we're here, in the wake of Taylor rereleasing her albums I found it fitting to take a look back at her discorgaphy so far! Thanks to my good friend Aly, I decided to relisten to all of her albums which the order was randomly decided. I will be talking about the deluxe editions so enjoy!
Let's start off with the first album that was drawn first which was Red.
One of my favorite albums right off the bat with probably her best album cover. I remember how excited I was for 22, mostly because my girl Dianna Agron's name was in the liner notes. Let's dive into what I thought now about 9 years later!
Favorite Track: Begin Again
Least Favorite Track: The Last Time (featuring Gary Lightbody)
Bonus Track I Wish was on the main album: All of them!!!
Favorite Bonus Track: The Moment I Knew
Album Ranking: 6th/9
Overall I adore this album so so much. The only track I didn't care for in the least was The Last Time. I think you'll find a trend with me that my least favorite Tayor tracks tend to be her duets (the exception being Everything Has Changed which is also on this album and is the purest of all). The album has held up and even moreso I love it than the first time I listened. Crazy. Anyway onto the rankings of each song. DISCLAIMER: These are just my opinions and you can disagree with them but please be respectful.
1) Begin Again
2) The Moment I Knew
3) State of Grace (Acoustic Version)
4) I Almost Do
5) Stay Stay Stay
6) All Too Well
7) Everything Has Changed (featuring Ed Sheeran)
8) 22
9) Come Back...Be Here
10) Red
11) I Knew You Were Trouble
12) The Lucky One
13) We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
14) Starlight
15) Girl at Home
16) Sad Beautiful Tragic
17) State of Grace
18) Holy Ground
19) Treacherous
20) The Last Time (featuring Gary Lightbody)
Honestly I adore this album so much as a whole and ranking every song was so hard. Holy Ground honestly had a lot of potiental I hated the arrangement but if I heard an acoustic version I would be sold, much like State of Grace which I wasn't huge on the original but the acoustic I'm obsessed with. Moving onto our second album which is one of Taylor's newest.
folklore! Funny enough on first listen I wasn't as into it as everyone else was but trust me, the relisten definitely helped me change my mind. I also heard the lakes for the first time which I loved. Since it's the only bonus track I'm going to say I definitely wished it had made the main album over some of the other songs on it. Let's dive into my thoughts and rankings.
Favorite Track: mad woman
Least Favorite Track: invisible string
Album Ranking: 9th/9
1) mad woman
2) the 1
3) the last great american dynasty
4) mirrorball
5) hoax
6) peace
7) seven
8) august
9) my tears richocet
10) the lakes
11) cardigan
12) betty
13) illicit affairs
14) epiphany
15) this is me trying
16) exile (featuring Bon Iver)
17) invisible string
Okay I know cardigan and betty being so low is going make people unhappy but honestly I just loved the other songs better listed above it. So many gorgeous songs and a great era for Taylor. It's not my favorite era and still falls in my lower half of her albums but I can appreciate the tracks on it more than I did before with the relisten.
Now onto Taylor's most recent album which came up next in our randomization in evermore
Unlike folklore on original listen I absolutely adored this album and had it in my top tier Taylor albums but will that opinion hold up? Let's find out.
Favorite Track: no body, no crime (featuring HAIM)
Least Favorite Track: gold rush
Favorite Bonus Track: it's time to go
Album Ranking: 7th/9
1) no body, no crime (featuring HAIM)
2) happiness
3) champagne problems
4) willow
5) cowboy like me
6) dorothea
7) majorie
8) evermore (featuring Bon Iver)
9) closure
10) long story short
11) ‘tis the damn season
12) ivy
13) it’s time to go
14) coney island (featuring The National)
15) right where you left me
16) tolerate it
17) gold rush
Okay let's talk about the relisten, it still held up but to me the one thing I didn't love about the album was the bonus tracks didn't add much to the original album so I kind of see why they were bonus tracks. I enjoyed the album none the less and I do think that most of my opinions are somewhat popular. I only see people being mad about 'tis the damn season being so low but honestly 1-11, I loved all the tracks so.
Up next is the rerelease that started it all, Fearless!
Now let's see after 13 years (hey Taylor's lucky number) if my opinion of this iconic album changed. Back in the day I was so obsessed with this album so let's see how I feel now!
Favorite Track: You're Not Sorry
Least Favorite Track: The Way I Loved You
Bonus Tracks I Wish was on the main album: Forever and Always (Piano Verison) and Come in with the Rain
Favorite Bonus Track: Forever and Always (Piano Version)
Album Ranking: 4th/9
1) You’re Not Sorry
2) White Horse
3) Love Story
4) You Belong with Me
5) Change
6) Forever and Always (Piano Version)
7) Fifteen
8) Hey Stephen
9) Come in with the Rain
10) Jump Then Fall
11) Fearless
12) Forever and Always
13) The Best Day
14) The Other Side of the Door
15) Breathe (featuring Colbie Cailaitt)
16) Untouchable
17) SuperStar
18) Tell Me Why
19) The Way I Loved You
I still remember when this album was first coming out how jazzed and excited I was for it. It was highly anticipated for me being that I had fallen in love with Taylor from her debut album and listening back it still holds up as one of my favorite albums. The only two tracks I wasn't into back then and still am not into are Tell Me Why and The Way I Loved You. Other than those two tracks the entire album is incredible to listen to. I'm so excited to hear Taylor's versions of all these songs and who knows maybe my mind will change on some of them.
Moving onto the next album to be randomly selected which is almost every Swiftie's favorite 1989.
Funny enough, originally this album isn't in my top favorites so who knows if my opinion will change on a relisten. Let's find out!
Favorite Track: Clean
Least Favorite Track: I Wish You Would
Bonus Tracks I Wish was on the main album: All of them?! Come on Taylor what's up with 1989 and Red having like some of their best tracks as bonus tracks. I'm mad haha.
Favorite Bonus Track: Wonderland (gee I wonder why)
Album Ranking: 5th/9
1) Clean
2) Wonderland
3) Wildest Dreams
4) This Love
5) You are in Love
6) Welcome to New York
7) Shake It Off
8) Blank Space
9) Bad Blood
10) Style
11) How You Get the Girl
12) Out of the Woods
13) New Romantics
14) I Know Places
15) All You Had to Do was Stay
16) I Wish You Would
Okay listening back. I now get the hype behind it. Listening to it with bonus tracks honestly makes all the difference. No joke. It's a much better album with the bonus tracks added. Honestly if Wonderland and You are in Love were on the main album it would've been top tier to me. Thank God for the deluxe version but team Taylor what is up with you hiding some of her best tracks and only releasing them on the bonus tracks? I'm mad. Also speaking on Wonderland, I adore the song even without the rumours of it being about my favorite celebrity Dianna Agron. Had the bonus tracks been on the main album it would higher but as a whole I love the album.
And now for our next album, which is reputation!
This is probably Taylor's most controversial albums, some love it and some hate it. I actually am somewhere in the middle. I love some of the tracks while others I could've done without. Let's see where it goes for me listening back.
Favorite Song: New Year's Day
Least Favorite: Dancing with Our Hands Tied
Album Ranking: 8th/9
1) New Year's Day
2) Gorgeous
3) Don’t Blame Me
4) This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things
5) I Did Something Bad
6) Dress
7) Delicate
8) Call It What You Want To
9) ...Ready for It?
10) Look What You Made Me Do
11) King of my Heart
12) Getaway Car
13) So It Goes...
14) End Game (featuring Ed Sheeran and Future)
15) Dancing with Our Hands Tied
Okay I feel like my choices here are controversal especially Getaway Car being pretty low on the album. Honestly I liked the song just wasn't into the hype that everyone else said about it, sorry you guys. Also Dancing with Our Hands Tied on the ALBUM is my least favorie song. I absolutely adored Taylor's acoustic version that was in the rep Tour. Had she released that on the album it would be after Look What You Made Me Do. The arrangement on the album I just didn't care for and I prefer acoustic Taylor which I think a lot of you gather from my top picks.
Anyway moving onto to our next album that was randomized which is...Taylor Swift!
Ah yes the album that started it all. 15 years ago I discovered Taylor Swift via this album thanks to CMT. I was a huge country music stan back in the day who knew how this one album would lead to a career I've been following for 15 years. Now how does this album hold up? Let's find out!
Favorite Song: Should've Said No
Least Favorite Song: A Perfectly Good Heart
Bonus Tracks I Wish was on the main album: Invisible and I'm Only Me When I'm with You
Favorite Bonus Track: Invisible
Album Ranking: 3rd/9
1) Should’ve Said No
2) Invisible
3) Cold as You
4) Picture to Burn
5) Our Song
6) The Outside
7) A Place in This World
8) Teardrops on My Guitar
9) Stay Beautiful
10) Tim McGraw
11) I’m Only Me When I’m with You
12) Mary’s Song (Oh My My My)
13) Tied Together with a Smile
14) A Perfectly Good Heart
This album still holds up 15 years later and made me so nostalgic. This had to be the hardest album for songs to rank thus far. Taylor hit it out of the park on her very first album crazy. She set the bar very high, funny enough it's the first album that a bonus track is my least favorite track but the entire album is a great listen, especially if you love country. It's very different from anything else Taylor did but that's what's so charming about it.
And now onto our second to last album which is another one of my favorites and the only album Taylor wrote fully on her own, Speak Now.
The album cover is up there with Red as my favorite and I'm excited to listen back to this album. I remember how much I enjoyed it when it was first released. Excited to see what I think 11 years later. Let's find out.
Favorite Track: Haunted (Acoustic Version)
Least Favorite Track: Last Kiss
Bonus Tracks I Wish was on the main album: All of them. Dang it Taylor they deserved to be on the main album.
Favorite Bonus Track: Haunted (Acoustic Version)
Album Ranking: 2nd/9
1) Haunted (Acoustic Version)
2) Long Live
3) Haunted
4) Better Than Revenge
5) Back to December (Acoustic Version)
6) Mine
7) Back to December
8) Mean
9) If This Was a Movie
10) Innocent
11) Dear John
12) Speak Now
13) Ours
14) Never Grow Up
15) The Story of Us
16) Superman
17) Enchanted
18) Sparks Fly
19) Last Kiss
One of Taylor's absolute best albms and it was incredibly hard to rank these songs. I know people are going to be mad about Enchanted being low but I just didn't love it as much as the other tracks on the album, this after all is one of the best albums she ever released so it's incredibly hard to make the call.
Moving onto our final album which I've called my absolute favorite, Lover.
It's only been an year since its release but will it hold up as my favorite album? Let's find out!
Favorite Track: Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince
Least Favorite Track: It’s Nice to Have a Friend
Album Ranking: 1st/9
1) Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince
2) Paper Rings
3) Lover
4) Soon You’ll Get Better (featuring The Chicks)
5) You Need to Calm Down
6) The Archer
7) The Man
8) Daylight
9) Afterglow
10) I Think He Knows
11) False God
12) Death by a Thousand Cuts
13) Cruel Summer
14) Cornelia Street
15) I Forgot That You Existed
16) ME! (featuring Brendan Urie from Panic! at the Disco)
17) London Boy
18) It’s Nice to Have a Friend
Yep it held up. This album is my favorite thing Taylor ever released. It was a tough call because I loved all of her top albums so much. Miss Americana still is my favorite performance which is no surprise, I was obsessed when this song came out 2 years ago. It's Nice to Have a Friend is the weakest track on the album but by no means is it a bad track. The entire album is a great listen all the way through, the only song that's hard to listen to especially if you have a sick parent "Soon You'll Get Better" I literally bawled after I finished it. So if you don't want an emotional song that might make you sad, it's best to skip it even though it's one of favorite tracks.
And that does it for us here. Hope you enjoyed my album reviews! Just to recap here's the rankings of all of Taylor's Albums:
1) Lover
2) Speak Now
3) Taylor Swift
4) Fearless
5) 1989
6) Red
7) evermore
8) reputation
9) folklore
Excited to see what's to come with the rerelease of Fearless and to hear the songs released from the vault. I've heard a few of her unreleased songs and honestly there are quite a few that I'm hoping are released. Thanks for enjoying us on this journey as always be kind and always spread love <3
Hello wonderful followers,
It’s been awhile since I posted something more lighthearted on my Tumblr and I figured this would definitely be the time to do so. This whole post is inspired by a thread my good friend Sarina made that I somewhat edited and my other good friend Esme actually talked about their Glee life so this is what I kind of envisioned for myself had I been a part of Glee.
I would start out as a sophomore (wanting to graduate with the OG Glee Cast) who is mostly a loner but with dreams of making it big in the music world. Much like Kurt, I would be bullied at the beginning for dreaming big and wanting to make something of myself and I believe my main tormenters would be the Cheerios and Jocks with Santana and Puck leading the charge against me.
When I find out there’s a Glee Club starting off I’m actually excited. Finally, a chance to showcase my talents as a singer and I quickly would sign up, unlike most of the others who were afraid, I would actually be excited and confidently sign up, which would probably lead to me getting slushied but oh well.
My audition song as said in my post would be Christina Aguleria’s ‘Reflection’. It’s a song that I relate to so much in that I wish people could see me for who I really am instead of just some loser that they make fun of. For me, it’s the perfect song to define myself and really is my signature song.
Once in Glee Club, I definitely forsee Rachel hating my guts just because I want leads as much as she does and would kind of view me as competition much like how she was towards Sunshine. Being the person I am and not confident in the slightest I probably wouldn’t fight back with her but would definitely get fed up with her behavior early on.
In the early days of Glee I think Kurt, Mercedes, Tina, and Artie would be my closest friends being that we’re original members and I would fear Rachel. I think I would have a friendly relationship with Finn but wouldn’t be around him as much due to both Rachel and Quinn kind of competing for his attention and fighting constantly over him. Once Brittany joins I actually think I would get along with her as well but much like my fear of Rachel, I would fear Santana about getting too close with Britt. When the football players join I definitely see myself bonding with Matt and Mike since they’re two of the nicer football players, meanwhile I would also avoid Puck at all costs just because of his reputation and the bad vibes he gives me.
As Quinn’s pregnancy is revealed, I would try to be a friend she could lean on, especially when she loses everything, something I think she’d be grateful for and sorely needed in Glee. I could see her confiding in me the truth about Puck being the father and how scared she is for word to get out which I will promise her will stay between us.
Unfortunately, our rival Rachel reveals all to Finn which in turn hurts Quinn. I could see myself much like Mercedes offering to let Quinn stay with my family and us being close because of it. And that’s my Season 1 story arc.
Moving onto Season 2, where I would be a junior, I would have a bit more confidence in myself and be somewhat less of a loser due to my friendship with head cheerleader Quinn. I know I’d be crushing hardcore on Sam but be totally shy about it (I have no confidence in myself and wouldn’t think he’d be into me). I’ll be a supportive friend through Quinn and Sam’s relationship, happy Quinn has someone who treats her well, something she deserves. I also will be really bummed when Kurt feels he has to transfer due to the Karofsky harrassment. I feel like Kurt, Quinn, and Mercedes would be my core friendships and losing Kurt would hurt since we both kind of went through bullying together. I feel like Rachel would continue to be incredibly jealous that people like me and I thankfully would have friends to defend me like Quinn and Mercedes.
Once Sam and Quinn breakup due to Quinn being well...not herself, I probably would try to be there for both of them, especially Sam. I see Santana being slightly annoyed that I’m hanging around Sam and reigniting her feud with me wanting me to stay away from her beard. Once Santana breaks things off with Sam however, I feel we’d be hanging out together a lot and I would try to help out with his family as much as possible. I enjoy kids so helping him babysit would be fun and much like Quinn I’d probably do girly things with Stacey. I could see it possibly blossoming into something more since I’ve been there for Sam and we would end up going to Prom together. At the end of S2 we would be the secretly dating couple.
Now moving onto Season 3, Senior Year! I know I’d be bummed with Sam moving over the summer and probably would have lost touch with Quinn due to her punk phase. I most likely would be hanging out with Kurt, Blaine, Mercedes, Tina, and Mike over the summer and applying to colleges (something I didn’t do in real life because of fear of rejection but fictional me will have more confidence). My dream school has always been Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee and I forsee a lot of my storyline revolving around me trying to get into that school to pursue my dreams of being a recording artist. When Quinn returns to the school I would try to talk to her and find out what’s going on trying to be a friend for her to lean on. When she goes a little crazy I will also try to talk her out of it knowing it’s ruining her life. However, the one thing I wouldn’t discourage her from is telling about Shelby sleeping with Puck. That was so disguisting and was something she absouletly should have reported. Shelby’s the one who made the bad decision that could cost her Beth. I always hated how the show portrayed Quinn to be the bad one in that situation when she was doing what was absouletly right.
When Sam moves back to McKinley High I would be elated and if he wanted to start up our relationship again, I’d be all for it. I would’ve truly missed his presence in my life and having him back would’ve brightened me up. I believe we would talk about the whole long distance relationship with me going off to college and him finishing his senior year in high school. Nashville’s only about 6 hours from Lima so I probably would try to come in on weekends and visit. It would be different but I’d assure him we’d make it work. I also would try to help Quinn through her accident and truly be a friend to her, encouraging her along the way to get on her feet.
Once I graduate at the end of Season 3, I will be on my way to Belmont University for Season 4. Much like many of the others I would come back occasionally and probably spend a lot of time with Sam whenever I’m in town trying to keep our relationship alive and well. Same goes for Season 5. I would come back for Prom to be Sam’s date, attend his graduation, and of course be back for the end of Glee Club.
The time jump in the second half of Season 5 would probably when things would get dicey for me. Sam would be out in New York with the others while I’d be in Nashville but I could see me having a dilemma and ultimately deciding to move back to New York to be with Sam and try my hand at getting a record deal which would hopefully be successful.
Season 6 with Sam back in Lima, I probably would go back to Nashville and finish up my degree or be pursuing a recording contract. I would definitely come back to Lima a lot for Sam much like I had done before and might end up settling down there as my home not wanting to be away from him.
In the 2020 time jump, I would be a successful recording artist and may be opening for artists I love like Demi Lovato or Christina Aguleria. Sam and I would end up together and settle down and have a family.
And that is what I would envision my Glee life to be. I hope you enjoyed this little journey. It was fun to write out an imaginary life for myself.
For those of you who have been here or may have newly stumbled upon this blog, welcome. I know it’s been a long time once again since I’ve posted but I’ve been going through a lot in my personal life which I’m not currently going to get into. However, there has been an ongoing pattern in life that has truly concerned me and quite frankly I feel like I need to express how I feel about it because it’s something that’s plagued me for most of my life.
Most of my blog posts are more lighthearted and about the TV show Glee and my opinions on it, as well as stories I’ve written and even song lyrics. However, today’s post is about something far more serious that has been getting under my skin, not only about myself but about others.
People think that when they’re a fan of you or are even close to you that they have a definition of who you are. People are constantly making assumptions about one another which are sometimes right on but most of the time it’s way off or is their vision of who they want you to be.
I’ve personally gone through this my entire life with a rumour that was spread around about me when I entered middle school about my sexuality. It stemmed from a completely misheard conversation by me due to my ADHD and soon had me labeled as something I wasn’t. It cost me friends, self esteem (due to people constantly avoiding me or laughing at me), and of course me questioning whether or not the assumptions people made about me were acually acurrate.
It took me such a long time to finally find a way to stand on my own two feet and say this is who I am and it’s something I’ve seen done to others, especially celebrities.
I want to state that I’m a major ally for the LGBTQ+ community and support people loving who they love no matter who it is. However, after the years of torment of trying to find myself and realize what my own sexuality was, I feel like it’s horrible to try to insist someone is this or that when they may not even know themselves and may be struggling to find their own idenity.
This is just a reminder to be kind to everyone and maybe not just assume you know what’s going on in their lives or how they feel about other people. I know it would’ve made my life a whole lot easier rather than feeling like I didn’t know myself for so long.
Thank you for listening to my ramble here as I try to piece my thoughts together on an issue I feel isn’t talked about enough. No one else can define who you are. You need to define yourselves.
