obsession?

i feel that a lot of times, people think they are the only ones going through a certain experience or cycle of failures or even that they are the only people who like a certain thing. and i know that every individual is flecked with idiosyncrasies, that "everyone is different," but chances are, many people have the same thoughts as you and are going through the same thing.

anyways, the reason why i was thinking this is that i just posted in my "about me:"

the relationship i have with each little obsession is like that of a friend who you know very well but sometimes forget about or grow apart from. and when you remember that they're there for you, its quite uplifting.

and after puking over how lame i am and asking myself a few times, "is this too ridiculous?" i wondered if that is really odd at all. you know? because often i think, "wow i'm so weird i have all these little obsessions that i rotate through like socks. i go from lost to heath ledger to being the ultimate indie music fan (cue puking) to alan rickman to stalking an ex, leading to being the perfect girlfriend to having the perfect nails to the rocky horror picture show to working out and doing yoga to reduce stress to eating icecream out of the carton to the thought of telling your life to a stranger to finding black and white movies on random tv channels to watch before i go to bed to sushi to wikipediaing the shit out of pop culture icons to being a fervent supporter of obama and religiously watching the aryan god that is anderson cooper to hamlet and his intellect to where i am now, which is being obsessed with watching the best movies ever made. to name a few, that is."
but i suppose everyone must do that. right? everyone gets intensly obsessed with a certain thing for a short amount (or i guess a long amount- i was closely following CNN for a good couple months...) of time, and then the obsession fades until it sparks back up when, maybe, you're flipping through the tv one night and happen to land on a program about hollywood during WWII (in relation to the black and white film thing.)

so maybe its not that weird that i do that. maybe its just that since most all of these things are done in private, you dont tend to share them with the rest of the world? and i just havent picked up on my friends or family doing it for that reason?

I dunno. andif i'm following what i just said, i wont know. unless of course you decide to tell me!

ps. i decided that what i wrote in my "about me" is way too look-at-me-i-can-think-things-BUT- they-arent-really-too-profound-or-interesting-to-read-HOWEVER-i-can-trick-the-average-person-into-thinking-im-a-pretty-cool-kid. i'll just change it back to my catch phrase.
