I've always had an aversion to people who use the term "drama" in a negative light.
Obviously, "drama" isn't a good thing when it's not referring to the theater, but haven't you noticed that everybody who says they don't want "drama" in their lives are usually the people who seem to thrive on it the most?
Lindsey Lohan said that 2010 was going to be a year of "nobody creating drama for her."
Hmm...I find it hard to believe that anybody other than Lindsay Lohan is responsible for Lindsay Lohan's drama.
When I was in school, I often felt that people used the term "drama" interchangeably with the word "busted."
As in, someone calls you out on your nonsense, and you say--
"Ugh, DRAMA!"
It seemed like people used "drama" as a way to stop conversation about whatever it was that they had done wrong.
"Hey Kev, did you steal that girl's car then run over her boyfriend with it?"
"Ew, could we not? So much drama, ugh!"
Chances were that the stolen car and the injured boyfriend would never be brought up again.
After all, nobody wants to start drama.
I think I'm the one person I know who actually admits to loving drama.
By that, I mean I like life.
I think we all create drama to some extent, because in our minds we're all living out our own movie, and who wants to watch a movie where nothing happens and everyone's happy all the time?
Not me.
That being said, I don't promote tacky, junior high drama.
When I think of drama, I think of people doing what they want and not being ashamed of it. To me, most negative drama starts when people try to protect their image.
Who cares about an image? The very word "image" indicates a certain level of fraud.
I say kiss who you want to kiss, dance with who you want to dance with, and at the end of the night, admit to everything you did, then go and get pancakes.
Now that, my friends, would be one movie I'd want to watch.
