    As someone who didn’t like TLJ, I think this looks great. There’s a sense of adventure in this that TLJ lacked.

    I like those smaller intimate ones as well, particularly the KEXP ones. This Snail Mail one is probably my fave, got me into her: https://youtu.be/8DEFQ5hVnpU

    In the last 2-3 years I’ve changed a lot. Before that I was timid and very nice to everybody, afraid to ruffle feathers. After a breakup I started to go through a lot of changes. Started to take my life in the direction I wanted. I’m now directing my own short film when I used to be afraid of asking anyone to help me do anything.

    But I’ve noticed the people I don’t see a lot still see me as the person I used to be. They say things to me as if they think they know me but they don’t. I find it strange how they assume they know what I’ll say or do when they haven’t seen me in a while.

    There are also various levels in which people know me. My closest friends think I’m a goofball and depressed but I’m honest with them probably to a fault and also love being a goofball with them.

    Co workers probably see me as good at my job, smart, social and outgoing but sometimes awkward. I freelance around so don’t hang with the same crew at the office every week. It can be hard sometimes coming in as an outsider. The small office cliques are hard to break into sometimes.

    People who I meet now are mostly impressed I think. I’ve become good at presenting a good image of myself. I’m honest about who I am but in a way that doesn’t put me down as I used to do.

    What I’ve realized is who gives a fuck what other people think. As long as I know what I want I have something to focus on. If you’re too worried about what others think you need to find a better goal for yourself. Being well liked is not a goal in and of itself. You need a mission that will fulfill you.
