The Things You Hate The Most

Little Things- One Direction 

      Everyone has something they're not happy with with themselves whether it's  your body, the way you laugh, or just your looks. Everyone has their insecurities, and this song is about just that. Imagine: the little details about yourself that you hate the most, someone else loves the most about you. Doesn't that sound great? That's how love is supposed to be.

 

"I know you've never loved
The crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved
Your stomach or your thighs  

But I'll love them endlessly"

      You might not know it, but someone admires everything about you. You aren't perfect, but no one is, and as long as you realize that, then you're fine. It's normal to be self-conscious, but don't let it overwhelm you. You were born that way, and you shouldn't hate yourself for it. Someone will come along at the right time and show you how to love those little things you hate.

You Matter

 

More Than This- One Direction

 

       Believe it or not, you matter to a lot of people. That's what I'm writing this post about. Sometimes people feel like they are worthless. Honestly, that is true for me, too. Sometimes it feels like I'm ignored by my "friends" and left out of a lot of things. But the truth is, you are always wanted around. Like my dad always told me, even if i think that I'm worthless, there is at least one person who is too scared to tell me about their feelings for me.

The boys in One Direction are showing their feelings for a girl that doesnt know about their feelings for her. If a girl knew how many boys liked her, it would boost her self esteem A LOT. Honestly, if I knew at least one boy who liked me more than a friend, I'd feel really good, even if I didnt like him back. Think about it...

 

"I've never had the words to say
But now I'm asking you to stay
For a little while inside my arms"



Let's Pretend It's Love

Live Like We're Young- One Direction

"Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun. I know we only met but let's pretend it's love. Tonight let's get some and live while we're young."  

This new song by 1D is becoming very popular, very fast. It seems that people are getting into their faster, more upbeat songs, which is good. Live Like We're Young is already ranked as one of their best songs, along with What Makes You Beautiful, One Thing, and More Than This. 

This song is mostly about sneaking out and doing crazy things because YOLO (you only live once), right?! This is a lot of peoples' motto these days. I like to joke around with the term, but when it comes to doing stupid things, i do not take it seriously. 

"Why should I drink and drive? Oh yeah, YOLO." No. If I only live once, I want to live it right and not die sooner than I should. Although I like the song and it is great to drive around town with the windows down blasting it through the radio, I don't agree with it's message.  

Yes, you only live once, but you should only have to live it once.

Do it right the first time. 

Zayn Malik

Zayn Malik

 Zain Javaad Malik was born in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. He is 19 years old and his birthday is on January 12, 1993. His father is Pakistani and his mother is English, so Zayn is British Pakistani. He also has 3 sisters, Doniya, Waliyha, and Safaa. 

Zayn grew up in East Bowling, and attended 3 schools before he felt comfortable going there. He says he was bullied at school because of his race/ethnicity. The third school he and his sister moved to, they felt much more accepted and confident in themselves and they started embracing their ethnicity.

Zayn likes urban music and, in his younger years, liked R&B and rap music. Like other members of One Direction, he also likes Bruno Mars. 

Although Zayn is addicted to smoking cigarettes, he has expressed his desire to stop in 2011.

 



Niall Horan

Niall Horan

On September 13, 1993, Niall James Horan was welcomed into this world by Maura Gallagher and Bobby Horan. Maura and Bobby already had a child named Greg, Niall's older brother, when Niall was born. When he was 5 years old, they got a divorce. For a few years, Niall and Greg lived in between both of their parents' homes until they permanently moved in with their father.

Unlike the other members of One Direction, who were born and live in the U.K, Niall was born and raised in the Republic of Ireland. He embraces his home land and loves where he's from. He's also pointed out easily from the other boys in the band because of his hair. It's blonde. Who doesn't love an attractive blonde-haired pop star?!

Niall has loved to play music since he was really little. He picked up guitar during his elementary days, and still plays it often. Obviously, he is a singer, but he sung a lot before One Direction, and before he auditioned for the X Factor. He used to go around his homeland and perform for people. 

Niall is a big "swing" music fan. He's always loved music by Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Michael Bublé. When he met Michael, Niall said he was speechless and could barely breathe. We all have our own fans. 

If you have anything to say about One Direction, please comment and tell me! Or if you have any requests for a post, let me know!

I Want This, I Want That

I Want - One Direction

The song "I Want" by One Direction is ranked their #9 song that they've written so far. The song is not written about themselves though. When I first heard the song, I thought they were singing about what they wanted. I thought they were being greedy and was upset about it. Then I listened a little closer. They were actually talking about how girls keep wanting things. 

Some girls just aren't happy with what they have. They keep wanting more and more. I would feel very upset if I was a boy and my girlfriend kept wanting more than she had. As a girl, sometimes I do get jealous about what other girls  have, but then I realize that I have what I need to get by, and that's all that really matters. 

The boys sing about how the girl keeps wanting shoes, clothes, jewelry, etc. They are being driven crazy. That girl that they are singing about, if she's real, needs to CHILL. I'm positive that that girl, if she's real, has a lot more than me and my family. It's not about what you want, it's about what you have. Being risen as a pastor's daughter, I realize that I can't always have what I want, and I'm okay with that. Maybe some people aren't so down-to-earth. 

It doesn't matter what you have. Materials won't make you happy.

The happiest people in life are the ones who make the best out of what they have.
