do it for fun, not because you’re good

i’m such an advocate for regular ass people doing art. or anything new that “requires skill” really we are so scared of doing things because we’re not any good at them. so what. karaoke with the confidence of a popstar even if your voice cracks and you don’t know breath support. paint even if it looks like a toddler made it. play the same three guitar chords and paint your furniture with a kitchen sponge and try to bake macarons. it’s so sad that people who aren’t, like, professionally skilled, get laughed at for their art. or like i said, trying any skill that isn’t honed yet there’s something so important and human in the arts, its such an amazing outlet but people refuse to tap into it because they “can’t draw a stick figure” or “write too cliche” or “have two left feet”. DO IT POORLY!!!!! DO IT SCARED!!!!! DO THE THINGS YOU WANT TO DO DEEP DOWN IN YOUR SOUL EVEN IF YOU THINK YOU’RE BAD AND FEEL EMBARASSED!!!!! let yourself have fun with things!!!!!!!! it shouldn’t be a competition all the time. you probably are not ariana grande, but you’re allowed to have fun singing and stuff too. if you have a voice in your head that laughs at you when you’re not immediately good at something, learn to gently correct it. tell it you’re learning and you’ll never be any good at something if you don’t have the courage to just….start. somewhere, anywhere

EMBRACING BEING BAD AT STUFF

For so long i’ve had a physical repulsion to activities i’m bad at which really hindered my ability to get better and be expose to new things. Which is so lame and ego-driven. Now i’m bracing being a novice and trying to feel lucky about getting a chance to learn something new. Being the worst at something is kinda a nice spot to be in.

discovering this collection of nostalgic browser games from the early 2000s truly unlocked something in my brain. girls who grew up playing the myscene makeover game grew up to be bad bitches. here’s to never forgetting ur inner child or whatever!
