1. there is nothing wrong with being sad some of the time. we are humans, not that guy from star trek with weird eyebrows and no emotions.

2. i am NOT sad most of the time. in fact i am, in my opinion, quite a happy person. i smile a lot and i only ever cry over episodes of grey’s anatomy and/or glee. 

3. being introspective is not the same as being sad. why do people think it is?

4. being not-optimistic-all-the-time is not the same thing as being pessimistic-all-the-time. i mean i might not see the world as rainbows and butterflies, but i am also not oscar the grouch.

5. worrying is not the same as being sad. why do people think it is?

6. i do not know why i started a numbered list but now i cannot seem to stop.

8. i skipped number seven, because i’m kind of badass that way.

13. numbered lists are fun if you don’t go in order.

14. i do not think that anyone who loves post-its, chick lit and Edward Monkton as much as i do can be accused of being sad and depressed, but we live in a strange world where such things happen.

15. basically in this list i argue that IAMNOTSADANDDEPRESSEDOKAY.

16. to prove it: i do not look like this, do i?

no. no i don’t.

p.s. if people see glasses as half-empty or half-full, and i just see them as, well, glasses, then what does that make me?
