You dont belong here.
I marvel constantly (when i remember to) at how Lindsay Lohan went from precocious child to grown-up siren. It makes we wonder what the fates have in store for already semi-adult Dakota Fanning. Ah well, in a few years.
Reading (when i have time to and remember to) Lohan’s escapades she seems a far removal from her role in movie, “Mean Girls”. But then she has acted in other movies like Freaky Friday and Confessions of a teenage drama queen.
For Mean Girls, I especially remembered the scene where she has to go up against a quiz rival. Initially raised to be level-headed and sensible before turning into a shallow and prissy Plastic, this was the scene where she finally redefines herself.
“Miss Caroline Krafft seriously
needed to pluck her eyebrows.
Her outfit looked like it was picked out
by a blind Sunday school teacher.
And she had some -cent
lip gloss on her snaggletooth.
And that’s when I realized,
making fun of Caroline Krafft
wouldn’t stop her
from beating me in this contest.
Calling somebody else fat
won’t make you any skinnier.
Calling someone stupid
doesn’t make you any smarter.
And ruining Regina George’s life
definitely didn’t make me any happier.
All you can do in life is try to solve
the problem in front of you.”
Ive been replaying the scene over and over ever since i saw it early last year. It was apt of a situation, i thought.
If something needs to be solved, go up to it and BE where you can make a difference. Being somewhere else when your heart isnt, will show, especially when people cannot rely on you, have to take up your slack and have you flaunt it in front of their faces.
Of this, I am filled with 101-percent conviction, have been for the longest time and am telling it straight (again) to whoever needs to know.
Just go.
