Things I learned from Veronica Mars

I just finished watching all the three seasons of the show plus the follow-up movie based on the character Veronica Mars, and I love it.

Veronica Mars,the protagnist is a high school student who helps her father (who is a Private detective) solve cases. She also helps her classmates using her sleuthing skill. Well, as far as the High School drama is concered the show is like a less bitcher and glamourous version of Gossip Girl . It is a little dark at places and the picturization reminds of Alferd Hitchcock movies. It is a great and engaging show, which has something for almost everyone.

However, I love the show for it main character, i.e. Veronica Mars. She is the most badass person I have come across on Television. She is smart, sassy, courageous and confident. Her wisecracks and humourous exchange with her father are the best parts of the show for me. Well, as the title suggests I am somewhat smitten with her character and relate a lot with her and have learnt a lot from her as well.( What may follow may sound cliche and many readers would think that have I not learnt this from other sources as well, but this show has just reminded me of the these things again, especially at a time when I desperately needed it)

The most important takeaway from the show was to stand for what you believe in, even if the whole world is against you, however this should not be akin to stubborness; admit when you are wrong.

It also reminded me that being friendless is not actually a bad thing, it might actually  a boon sometimes, a blessing in disguise allowing you to find yourself and to understand who are actually your friends. It also taught me to be my own person despite whatever anyone may say. 

I also remembered how important it was to be able to laugh at oneself (Veronica did this by making blonde jokes on herself) and the importance of  humour even in  the most dire situations. 

Finally it reaffirmed my belive that scarcasm is one of the most purest joys of life. 

I think my decision to watch Veronica Mars was Godsend ( Don't worry people I have not suddenly embraced religion), right when I was about to give up on what a lot of people call "bitchiness" Veronica Mars showed me how to embrace my inner Bitch.
 
So, I guess the appropiate ending to this post would be, "The Bitch is Back" ( A reference to the last episode of the Show)

Nothing kills you like your mind

Okay so this another life changing moment for me, I just realize that more than half of the time I'm don't do things because of fear of failing, I have a very vivid imagination I can imagine the worse case scenario in very situation even when something good may have a chance of happening I just mess it up by thinking and overthinking it. Like right now I have this MUN coming up and trust me I have wanted to MUN for a very long time but now I'm really scared and because of that I'm making all these worst case scenarios in my mind about how I would suck. The problem with me is that I care, not too much, but still I do care enough to hesitate, and this is where I lose out on opportunities, but now I have decided I'm going to give up on this hesitation and not let my mind kill me slowly. I'm going to do what I like, how I like and when I like. I'm going to ask questions in class, participate in discussions and debates, volunteer alone if I have to, but I wo...

First fight with room mate

So it is generally accepted fact that it takes a lot to set me off, I mean people give examples of my patience, seriously they do, it is no exaggeration. But now enough is enough, so I had a fight with my room mate, well to be exact it was not really a fight, I shouted and she just walked out not that much exchange of words and stuff, but one gets the point it was a disagreement. So now there this kind of cold war kind of thing going on between us, where we are giving each other a cold shoulder, now I do know that I may have overreacted a bit but my initial reaction was completely justified. What is done is done, now it is time to move on, but the point of ego comes into play who is going to make the first contact, who is going to be the first one to bow down and talk? And frankly I don't mind being the first one at all.
