I watched this video and I think it's pretty cool what he said about how everything we do today that's normal was probably weird a long time when nobody was doing it, and then someone who was.. "eccentric" at the time in his society/culture comes up with the idea of doing something and does it, and it might have seemed very weird at the time... but then everyone starts accepting it and doing the same thing as it becomes normalized or.. socially accepted. Oh yeah, not the video up there though. Haha it's this one:

because they're too scared to be different and be judged by their peers. 

I think Daria is a pretty good example of someone who is... different. But I think there are like 2948202039 eccentric people in this world. But then again my definition of eccentric is like so biased. 

Let's go back to what I said in my first paragraph. Don't you think it's true though? Everything that used to be strange or socially abnormal eventually becomes socially normal or socially accepted, or whatever. I mean look at the clothes they sell at TopShop, Forever21 and Cotton On nowadays, they're so... hipster. So everyones trying to be hipsters now? I even see similar stuff at Mango and Dorothy Perkins, and like old people shops... And mom's shop at Dorothy Perkins! So moms wear hipster clothes now too! 

So my point is... I don't really know. But I basically impregnated my entry with a whole lot of crap that came out of my brain. I'm sorry if I'm boring you but here comes the interesting bits! 

I believe that only eccentric people can be truly good musicians. Seriously. Because they stand for what they believe and stuff like that and YouTube and creativity has made it possible to become famous without having too much money. God bless the founder of YouTube.

So anyway, have you ever heard of Buckethead? He is amazing. UH-MAZE-ING. 

This is what his album music really sounds like. Oh and some advice, don't judge by the first 30 seconds because I am not just making you listen to some typical metal stuff okay! Listen beyond 30 seconds and you'll see what I mean about his... different-ness.

I repeat... AMAZING! I think I die every time I listen to his songs and then come back to life. I can't imagine being at a Buckethead concert. I think I would die... but like not come back to life. It's okay. If I die at his concert, at least he'd be all like "Oh I heard about this girl dying at my concert... It's such a shame. I got my people to send her family some of my guitars and a bunch of flowers. Rest in peace.." Hahahhaa okay the fact that I even thought of that is... kinda creepy but anyway!

Sorry if I bored you there. Moving on! 

I think I know about 10 people who I consider to be eccentric. Let's talk about this one guy I'm very very close with. He's really different (yeah, what a way to start..). First of all, he doesn't like school. Sound familiar? Yeah who likes school, right? Haha. But anyway he hated school ever since he was in kindergarden and his parents had a really hard time forcing him to go to school everyday. You'd think it's a minor problem but then it shit gets serious... He kept moving schools and getting held back but sometimes skip a year stuff like that. On some days it wasn't such a hard time getting him to go to school but on other days it's just extremely impossible, you would not believe the things his parents had to go through in the mornings to get him to go to school. And they both have to go to work after sending him.

One day his dad got really really REALLY pissed at him and forced him to go to school. No mercy. So this guy gets really angry and starts crying and raging but he can't argue with his extremely angry father so he just sucks it all up, bottles up his emotions and just goes to school. A few hours later his parents got a call from his teacher telling them that he had a seizure and they didn't know what to do so his parents rushed to the school and took him to the hospital. They found out he was epileptic.

From that day onwards his parents didn't want to force him to do things he didn't want to anymore because he gets angry so easily and with his epilepsy, it would stress him out which usually leads to a seizure. His parents were always terrified by all the times they've seen him seize and so no more forcing would be thrown in his direction.

So now he just does everything he wants to and he doesn't have to do what his parents tell him. Sometimes he doesn't even shower for a week, he would eat whatever he wants to whenever he wants to, his parents would buy him almost anything he asks for (thankfully, the stuff he wants aren't that ridiculous). He's learned to do a lot of things for a person who doesn't go to school. Obviously the stuff you don't learn in school. He learned to make music on FL Studio, he learned to use Photoshop, some programme called something something Cinema 4D? He can play the guitar, the drums, the keyboard/piano, he's a crazy gamer, too. Okay I'm making him sound pretty normal.

But I don't know. I think he's really different especially because of the lack of exposure to socialization or something. He's very anti-social.  He doesn't really talk to anyone except for like a little group of friends from the last school he went to. Probably because he doesn't like it when people ask him why he doesn't go to school. People look down on him and I think that's their loss. I think he has a very high IQ because I notice how he can learn stuff so quickly and independently. It's like when I finally figure out how to play some guitar riff which usually takes about 42083 years (hahahahahahaha) he only takes 5 minutes to master it. And I'm the one who taught him how to play. It's so unfair. I'm like level 2 and he's like already on level 100. But that could be because I'm a girl and I'm kind of stupid... or just slow..... but I think I may be stupid.



So anyway. Eccentric people are awesome! Eccentricity should always be looked at positively. People who fail to see the good qualities in eccentricity should die. Heheheheh heheh.

Here are two eccentric people that I love so dearly and my favorite quotes.
