They're Not Perfect, But Then Again, Who Is?
Olla! Whew, would you look at that? We're already almost reaching the end of December! And although I surely ain't complaining about what turned out to happen, but I think the Mayans owe us an apology, don't they?
Oh and by the way, Merry Christmas, everybody!
So I've got a couple of weeks off school since it's Christmas and New Year and shit. You have no idea how long I've been waiting for these free days to come. Like, really, it's been hell at school, and that wasn't even the worst part of the school year yet. But hey, the holidays are here, so I guess I just gotta shove it up my ass and enjoy what's right in front of me, eh?
Alrighty then, you're probably wondering "what's up with the title?" (or probably not, idrc). So you see, if you've read my last post before, you might already be aware that I have a really firm grip on my role models. True. Apparently, a few minutes ago, I was viewing one of my role models' facebook and twitter page (no, not stalking, can't a fan be considerate about her idol?), and the usually boring morning turned out to be one of the brightest moments so far in this holiday. I actually laughed and had a very enjoyable moment throughout the whole--fine, I don't know what else to call it--stalking, and felt something that I've never felt before whenever I idolize someone: shame. I felt ashame of myself for not being able to do something better other than sitting on my bed, munching on uncountable snacks, and marry my eyes with my laptop for the whole day. That, my friend, is not something that often comes to me.
Before I say anything else, here are my three current heroes.
1. Thomas William Hiddleston (Tom Hiddleston)


He's mostly well-known for his role in The Avengers as Loki, but he had played for certain important roles in many other movies, too.
Why him?
Oh, I don't know, maybe just because of his voice? Because he's a true gentleman? And maybe because he tolerates almost everything his fans do to him, even though sometimes they go waaay over the line? (Really, Hiddlestoners are sometimes REALLY pushing it). The way he says "Sorry, darling, I only have five minutes, okay?" but then ends up still chatting with his fans or giving them autographs ten minutes later just to be late for whatever important thing it is that he has to do? Or maybe just because he believes in his own self? That's not it, of course, I've still got way waaay more reasons as to why he's one of the most awesome guy on the planet.
He still has flaws, of course, like the fact that he can't count 120 times 4 at an interview one time. But hey, what do we need to see flaws for when he's got so many other positive sides to him that I can totally look up to?
2. Benedict Timothy Carlton Cumberbatch (Benedict Cumberbatch)



Honestly, I don't know how many films/movies Benny had starred in, but I do know for sure BBC Sherlock is one of them, and boy do I love him in that show.
What I love the most about him is that he keeps himself in a low profile. I'm sure that he's fully aware what he's capable of, and I know he knows he's doing a really good job at what he's doing, but he's really modest, I'm telling you. Yes, okay, maybe for those of you who don't really know him thinks that he looks a bit odd, because that was what I first thought of him too. Odd. But really, THAT'S what makes him stand out the most. THAT'S what makes him my role model. He stands out by not just his appearances, though, he really does know how to mesmerize a fan by the way he acts on camera. And his voice? Just--just, wow. Okay, so apparently I have a thing or two for men with deep gravelly voices, sue me, ha.
3. Misha Collins (born with the name Dmitri Tippens Krushnic)



No, no, don't worry, that's makeup he's wearing on that second photo, he took the photo himself on set, I think.
And yeah, he's just goofy like that, and that's why I adore him so much.
Out of all the three people I've mentioned, I gotta say that I look up to Misha the most. And yes, he's the one I was stalking on facebook and twitter.
Misha plays the role of Castiel in Supernatural. I'd really like to tell you that Castiel's the reflection of Misha Collins himself, but no. Just..just no. His evil twin? I wouldn't say yes to that, but there's a 98% of possibility for that to be true.
I don't know what Misha is made of. Really. I don't even know a person as random as him can even exist. But apparently, that's what makes him adorable. He's a really great person to both his fans and to random people. Hell, he even remembered a fan's face from a certain con even though he's been to zillions of it, and that proves that he really does care about his fans and appreciates all the support that they have given him.
I gotta say, I've never been obsessed with an actor like how I do about Misha now. I don't know, I just think that Misha has somehow given me the message that, yes, it's okay to be all weird and goofy-like. It's okay to stand out and do whatever you want to do as long as it doesn't hurt anyone. Misha has given me so many lessons that nobody has ever given to me, and I really appreciate that. Really, I do, even though I haven't even met the guy. Although a huge part of me screams "you wish", but one of the goals in my life is to meet him someday. I know, I know, wishful thinking, but we'll never know, right?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So maybe if a very, very small part of me says that I feel like I want to change for at least a bit, then that's exactly what I will try to do. I won't try to be all big about it and start with raising funds for charity and shit--although don't mistake me for not wanting to do that, but a person has her own limits--but I'll try to do something about myself. Change how I socialize, maybe. Change how I act upon people with less douchey-ness. Change my perspective of how I see things, and be more objective. Baby steps, baby.
Cheerio!
