I'm set up to start talking about college soon. Definitely this month. This week, though, I think I'll continue to talk about different things instead.
I got into Glee just last summer, which means that I've been processing 2.5 years of material in about 6-8 months, where most Gleeks have had that much time to think it over. I'm beginning to think that those 1- 2- and 4-week hiatuses actually give people time to go back over the previous episodes and think about the implications.

I am... often... slow to declare my favorite shows and favorite characters in public. With Star Trek: The Next Generation, it was Wesley Crusher. Hey, I was a geeky teenage girl. I've already said that my crushes were usually based on intelligence more than looks - though Wesley had both. And maybe my father was just trying to protect his little girl... although how a fictional character could really be a threat to one's virtue, I do not know. But my father made sure I know about every criticism his co-workers had. How they wished the character would leave the show, one way or another.
What I learned was to keep my cards close to my chest. That to talk about the things I liked the most, just brought on more criticism. Perhaps they didn't mean to attack me by attacking the things I liked. But neither did it encourage me to be myself. So perhaps I am making a mistake one more time, when I talk about my favorite Glee character.
