She Will Be Loved

My name is Kim! I live in Texas, have a husband named Zach, and a goal to change the world. I majored in Nutrition and Psychology at Texas State University, work as a carpenter out in the Hill Country, and study just about anything I can in my free time to learn more about the world around me and how to do cool stuff. My blog is anything I find beautiful, funny, inspiring, important, or relatable. I love you all!

two drunk people came up to me while i was walking downtown and struck up a conversation, and they seemed so happy and excited they got me all happy and excited just being around them and their recklessness rubbed off on me so long story short I got a tattoo on my ass. Don't tell my husband.

At church camp, when you got to the top of the tower to ride the zipline, you had to tell them a joke and if they laughed you'd get to ride it. They said if you use a Chuck Norris joke you had to come up with 3 to pass bc apparently one is too easy but if Chuck Norris had been up there, he would've made them tell him three jokes to watch him ride the zipline, I'm sure.

Star Wars fans: Rey is such a boring Mary-Sue.

Tumblr: No she isn’t! There is a perfectly logical explanation as to why she mastered everything she touched perfectly on the first try.

Star Wars fans: ….how then?

Tumblr: She used the Force.

Star Wars fans:

[imadra-blue-deactivated20200728]

that is literally how the force works if you can use it have you never seen a star wars movie before or

anakin never finished a race, then wins one first time out

anakin never flew a starship before and manages to do what the other pilots couldn’t: blow up a droid control ship

let’s not forget luke

luke never used a lightsaber or piloted an x-wing before, then the second he uses the force, bam, perfect first time out

lmao look at this person tryin’ to call rey a mary sue like it’s 2004

[downtroddendeity]

That and like. She has better reasons for knowing this stuff than the above dudes do.

Like, of COURSE she knows all about mechanics- she’s been scavenging starships for parts most of her life, so knowing what’s what and how it works is a crucial life skill.

When she handles a lightsaber, she’s very obviously using it like she would a staff (and spends most of the fight running away from Kylo anyway). You know, like the staff she carries with her all the time for self-defense in the desert hellhole she grew up in.

Everything we see her do with the Force is stuff Kylo did in front of her- he invades her mind, and she invades his and then mind-tricks a Stormtrooper (which still takes her three tries). He Force-holds her and later tries to Force-pull a lightsaber, and she Force-pulls it to her instead.

Practically everyone in the Star Wars universe is casually multilingual, and the only character in TFA who’s shown to be unable to understand at least one of Chewie or BB-8 is Finn, who was raised and brainwashed as a Stormtrooper (and neither the Empire nor the First Order seems to be much of an equal opportunity employer when it comes to species). Given her scavenger history, Rey having met astromech droids before isn’t just possible, but likely.

Her skills are better-established than either Luke’s or Anakin’s before they matter, but nope, she’s the Mary Sue, apparently.

For god’s sake, if you take Episode 1 at its word, Anakin was a goddamn virgin birth caused by the will of the force, and has an extensive prophecy about him being the Chosen One.

Like. Seriously.

Back in high school I had a HUGE crush on the “mysterious” guy in the class above me. Let’s call him Tom. He was waaaaaaaaaay out of my league so by some screwed logic I figured I had nothing to lose and started talking to him one day. Lo and behold, we became friends and I started hanging out with his group of friends most days after school. Since I came from a small town almost 10 miles away it was great to have new friends to spend time with, or so I thought.

As stated I had a huge crush on this guy and it was blood obvious to anyone involved - Tom included. He had already made it clear to me and others that he did not look for a relationship with anyone and this was confirmed by his friends, some of the girls told me that he just had a couple of short relationships during high school and that the girls had been the driving forces behind getting into said relations. Somehow I managed to push my feelings aside far enough to spend time with him as a friend, (God knows how a 17-yearold girl managed that) but I had my angsty, upset and jealous moments for sure…

And then, somehow, we started to spend more and more time together and on a friends Halloween party he actually asked me if I wanted to date him - as boyfriend/girlfriend. I was on cloud nine for sure and as happily in love as only a teenage girl can be. Until our group of friends found out. Their reaction was to “blame” me, saying I made Tom agree to date me, that it would never last more than a few months at best and then he would get bored with me as he had with the other girls and even so far as to once telling me to break up with him and move back home. I realized later that several of them must have had a crush on him at some point or another and then I showed up… Teenage girls can be brutal.

Anyway, most of those friendships crumbled as they tend to do, especially reinforced by the dislike from several members of the group. I got on with my life, school ended and I went through a couple of jobs before ending up as a manager at a local restaurant. I was working an evening shift when two of my old high school friends who had been very vocal about my unpopular relationship with Tom (lets call them Maddy and Ellie) walked in and seated themselves at one of my tables. It must have been at least 5 years since I last met them and even longer since we used to hang out together. I took their orders but they kept on looking at me, trying to figure out if and why I was familiar so I decided to help them out.

“Yeah, you know me. We used to hang out after school.”

Both of them shines up and smiles at me, that way you do when you meet people you have not seen in years or even thought about at all but still want to be pleasant to as to find out what they are up to now and if its interesting. And then Ellie goes

“Yes! That’s it! You’re Meenite! We used to be in the park all the time! And you used to date Tom!”

Oh, that glory, that wonderful glowing sensation of victory that you usually only find in the daydreams of a teenage mind - to have the privilege to be able to experience it for real.

“No, honey. I am still dating Tom.”
