I know I've been blogging a bit too much, but hey sometimes excitement turns into temptation which turns into all night insomnia...yeah never too much fun. But as college students, we all definitely can understand that when you have a break after a LONG semester, sleep comes and goes very easily.
Well, chatters, I put in my first blog post that this blog was inspired by the blog of Davey Wavey from breaktheillusion.com. He brings up some interesting topics that I feel whether you are gay or straight or bi or tri or questioning or whatever label you profess, will make you think but also really wonder about the character of Davey Wavey.
Perhaps one of the best characters to come from youtube since lonelygirl115, Davey is a happy go lucky gay man who muses about life, relationships, sex, job, and rather interesting fascinations. He is extremely upfront and really wants to help people.
WHOA, wants to help people?
Yeah, sounds fishy.
I personally think, after reading his posts and watching his videos, Davey seems to be geniune. But someone who posts so much about his personal life and really let his audience in, isn't there some what of an act that goes along with it? Perhaps.
We as college students constantly are faced with these identity crises and go through a progression of finding our true identity. At the age of 25 (I'm assuming), Davey seems to have it all figured out. He has a job he loves, an apartment he loves...well condo, a lovable dog, and just is happy with life. I wonder how he got to that point.
Where do we stop worrying and start loving life? Is it after college or is it during? I know with me, I love life in small doses. Too much freedom brings chaos in my life. I like to have structure mixed with spontaneity. I'm usually the hugest procrastinator when it comes to work and will find any excuse to have fun. Though some work gets done before others, as this last semester pointed out. (I got my first B...in college...I know, I know, pathetic...but I hold myself to high standards)
I cannot decide though if Davey is a character or is true reality. That's what makes him so addictive, besides the fact he's barring his chest in every youtube video. That's what makes him happy. More power to him. If I had the capabilities of him, I don't know if I would feel comfortable about filming my life on a youtube camera.
And yet I want to do film. Funny ins't it?
So, here's my question for you: do you know who you are? If so when did you know?
I really would love if Davey Wavey stopped by and contributed his thoughts. Please don't look at this posting as an attack on him or my proclamation that I don't like his thoughts. I actually find him extremely fascinating and rather humourous. His heart's in the right place and he cares about his blogosphere.
Definitely gives his a blog a view or two. Probably, I will check back in on this subject in another post. Who knows what new material Davey will present to the world and further, will Davey find a boyfriend? With a body that developed and that toned, it would be hard to imagine him without a special someone. Next development!! (See...it's like watching The Hills only BETTER and no Speidi)

I knew who I was somewhere post undergrad but before finishing my masters... at least the first version on me, there could be others someday.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Perhaps, since I'm at the end of my undergrad and hopefully the start of Masters (fingers crossed), maybe a definition will occur.
ReplyDeleteI don't know buddy, I'm 32 and still have not made any sweeping generalizations about any aspect of selfness. When I start to feel nervous about not "being a thing" I try to think about how freakin awful it feels to be pigeonholed as a specific thing.
