Welcome to my corner of the world! I think I get obsessed to easily. Not about people, who are real of course; fictional on the other hand.... ;) Get your minds out of the gutter if they happen to be there. Moving on, I get obsessed with hobbies, ideas, books, movies, songs, etc. Its sad but true. When I was younger, I was obsessed with barbies, polly pockets, my little pony, kim possible, powerpuff girls, dress up, dance, hello kitty, and the color pink. (the color thing still hasn't changed. My favorite color is still pink.) I'm older now and I still get obsessed with "things". Fandoms, music, reading, dancing, stuff animals (I like naming them and they are soft and its like bringing a piece of my home with me.) , dressing up, makeup, just being me. I've gone through phases of obsessions. I went through a phase where I was really into making friendship bracelets, so that year I got my own colored thread to make bracelets with instead of taking my mom's thread. I kinda got bored with it after a while, but I still have a bag full of different colored strings because even as I grow out of these things, I'll go back to them when I'm bored. But then there are somethings that you know you will never go back to. I have a bunch of really girl books that I read when I was younger. I probably stopped reading them after 8th grade. I, sadly, finally put the last of my barbies away in a shoebox in the back of my closet. These were my absolute favorites but I finally realized that I'm now 17 and I shouldn't really even play with barbies even when I'm bored. But I'm not going to get rid of them. They will go into the giant tub with all my other barbies and put away in the attic until they go into storage to wait until I have a daughter. My old polly pockets and my little pony dolls are just sitting in drawers in my sister's room but even she doesn't play with them. I have pokemon cards that are sitting in a box thats in my box of randomness. Somethings I have given away, some are just sitting in the attic. (This changed from obsession to growing out of your old toys.) But then there are somethings I deeply believe I will never grow out of like Harry Potter. I've invested too much time, effort, and my life into this fandom to get rid of it from my life. Why else do I spend money on things related to it? But then there are things that were there in the back of my mind, that have now grown into something more like my thing for superheroes. This started because I would occasionally watch Gotham but I loved the Avengers and Spiderman. This grew into me now being really into the Flash, Arrow, and Supergirl. I have a thing for heroes in general, whether its DC or Marvel, whether they have powers or a suit. The topic of the post changed from obsession to old toys to superheroes.
