Cersei Lanister

Funny, in the books I never felt sympathy or understanding of Cersei, but the most recent episode of the tv show has given me perspective to the sad life she lives. I feel for her deep inside now. True fact, there is no such thing as evil.

Quick fact on the actress. She played the Queen character in 300, guess she just pulls off Royal well.



I really like Cerseis costumes in game of thrones. They are medieval meets Japanese and highly Amidala-ish

Teens/Young Adults and Money

So my best friend and I are discussing this one less than 23 year old we know of who has gone to Europe twice in the last year or so. I know lots of other people who have traveled all over the world and they are all under 25. I understand my friends who work lots of part time jobs and save for months/years and live with their parents(IE don't have to pay rent). But what I don't understand is kids who do NOT have jobs? Where does the money to travel come from? Are their parents seriously banking out thousands of dollars so their children can travel? Are they using student loans or credit cards?

The reason I query so hard is, I come from a above average well off family, my father and mother combined have always made between 100k and 200k since I hit around 15. Yet I never saw this money. Sure I always had a roof over my head, and my mom bought me college text books and if I couldn't make rent during college, my parents always loaned me the money. But I never was shipped off to Europe for weeks on end. I have a huge student loan to pay back and I have spent my entire life living comfortably but minimalistic. I just can't image being spoiled so. *shrugs*

Anxiety

As a young girl, I never felt anxiety. It is strange how I always was confident and outgoing and knew what I wanted and felt that all my actions were justified.   Now as I grow older, I find myselfdoubting my actions more and more. I don't feel like I can look at all my actions and never doubt them. I guess people who never doubt their decisions are less mentally stable in the long run though. How can you live life never feeling that you might have made the wrong decision and actually be kind and polite. I guess my main reason for this anxiety is my new job. If I do something wrong at my job, my boss texts me when he gets in in the morning and 'lets me know' but this makes me fear looking at my phone all day! I NEVER felt this kind of fear in past circumstances. I would laugh at people who questioned my actions and feel 100% justified. I am hoping I can rebuild my confidence. I have a strong partner at my side, and I am making choices for me, not others now. I have clear set goals that I need to pursue.
