the age of indifference...

yeah, so this all started b/c my friend here...yes I have a friend now in Cali!...mrr...anywho...she bought Phantom of the Opera and the girl who plays Christine is Emmy Rossum. Now, she looked pretty familiar, and I, being my curious self, had to figure out why. I was pretty sure she was in this Disney movie about ice skating...low and behold, she was! She was in Genius, a Disney tv movie, and I found out that she is an '86 baby, so she is only like 18! That is insane. Than I saw this thing on this months hottest singers, y'know and so I clicked on Jessica Simpson, cause I was curious what that had to say about her...she was born in '80, so she is like 23 or 24! Ok, that's nuts. Both of these girls are two years older or two year younger. I just think it's crazy how different everyone is. How we are all about the same age, but our walks of life are so completely different. It's not as shocking, I guess, when you find out about other "normal" people like at school or near home or whatever, but, I don't know. I just look at where they have grown up, or how they have grown up and think about how their life must have been all being pampered and put into productions and auditions thier whole lives, and they're gorgeous people. They have these lives of their own, just living across the world. Their careers are either starting to take off or they are in the midst of stardom.
I am here at someone elses' school, typing from a computer. It's interesting how television instantly makes people movies stars, whether or not you like them. You see them on the street and instantly you're like, "they're important cause they were on tv." Not to put them down, I know that could sound snotty, but just a thought, y'know? Just how different we all are and how amazing it is at the different experiences we have all had. Like as if you are watching people in their cars from your car or from an airplane. They are people with lives, thoughts, feelings, pasts, dreams, hopes, futures, kids, families, jobs, brains, and so on. I don't know why it fathoms me so, but it does. People are real, they are the same as me (to an extent y'know...) That is all.
