The wild ones


Hey Hannah here,
On this very planet  there  are special beings. They are not normal: they are crazy, weird, spontaneous, different, they don't fit in, they are the "losers", "geeks", those that see it differently, they are the round pegs in square holes (is that the saying? Please correct me if I'm wrong) they don't care what others think or say, they are the "rebels" that refuse to bend to societies' rules,   they are the most amazing people you'll ever meet. They are the ones who are wild enough to think they can change the world and they are the ones who do. They are the Wild Ones.
They are different and right now we may make fun of them, point and call them names but years from now our children will look up and say  "Mum, i want to be just like him".
They are special, they see what the rest don't, they think what the rest can't, they do what the rest are too scared to. They are brave and bold. They believe they can change the world and some may call them looney for that but they don't let it get to them. They are the ones that decide "enough is enough" and break the rules. They are anything but ordinary.
 When they stand up to talk you can agree or disagree with them, quote them,  hero worship or outcast them, you can do almost anything to them but the one thing that you simply can not do is shut them up. Because when they start speaking the whole world stops and listens, when they make an action the whole world stops and watches and they (the world, that is) think "She's doing what I've been too scared to do". The Taliban men shot down Malala and she did not die (read my blog post,"People have changed history and so can you!" to understand better ). She bounced back and continued speaking for what she believed in; that is grit, pure determination and once you are determined, once you have strength, it will be impossible to shut you up.
Some one needs to say these things so I will. Some people weren't made to fit in, they are meant to stand out. They can't blend in or be "average" when they are really so much more than that. They can't be ordinary because let's face it ordinary is boring and these people, those that are carving our future and paving the way are anything but.
What I've been trying to say since the beginning of this post is that this is a shout out. Here's to the weirdos, the freaks, the crazy people, the geeks, the future makers, those who dare to be different, those who decide "enough is enough", the weak and broken down that still wear a tired smile and say, "I'm ". Here's to the warriors who battle everyday with issues, here is to the beautiful (that's you!), the triumphant, the bold, the "game changers". Here's to the Wild Ones. Here's to us!

I got the concept of wild ones from Alessia Cara's Wild things, its an amazing song and her songs are great source of inspiration to my blog posts. Don't forget to comment and follow!  Some other posts you can read during the mean time :
*Death and the afterlife
*A teenage boys guide to growing up (an attempt at humour which is actually majorly just sarcasm)
* The secret of influential people
*let's talk about the "D"

"Why do girls wear short skirts?" he asked me.

Hey, Hannah here, One night, a boy asked me a question and it really got me thinking. After a lot of thinking I came up with an answer that I want to share with all of you. He asked "Why do girls like to wear short skirts?" In boarding school it's not uncommon for girls to ride their skirts up or fold it to make it shorter and some tighten their skirts but why? I thought really hard about it. We just want to feel beautiful, we want to be noticed, to feel loved and to love. A lot of girls go the extra length- those super tight jeans, that showy shirt, a lot wear make up just so they can feel beautiful, Everyone knows that Queen Bee in most high school movies and series. No one ever considers that maybe just maybe  she's just as insecure as the rest of us. She has tooth pick legs but no one ever considers that she's anorexic, they see that she is a bully but no one considers that maybe she is just insecure and whats to see some one else as unsure of them selves (...

Hey, Hannah Here

Hey there, I'm Hannah Kay and I honestly think there's nothing overly special about me. I am just another teenager trying to get noticed in the world, just another person trying to get their story out to the world, trying to be heard. You're probably wondering why I chose this to be the name of my blog. Well you see it all kind of started like this. ever since I was around... 9? I am not too sure. Some certain topics intrigued me. I'd spend hours and hours researching over them, poring over the little things, the tiny details that to me mattered the most. I went from the Victorian and Elizabethan eras; reading classics and history textbooks and  articles to mythology; Greek, Norse and even Roman; there was the chemistry phase too, the racism, the Martin Luther King, the Margaret Thatcher and so many more. I went from arts to sciences, from biology to Literature.  During each phase I  picked up a lot of information on lots of topics. Anytime there is an intelligent di...

#antibully

Bullying. What does the word make you think of? Maybe you imagine a small weedy boy getting hit by a big beefy boy. And in many ways the image is kind of correct but I like to think of that as "old school bullying". It seems like bullying has evolved from this, its grown bigger and uglier. People still get bullied the old fashioned way and it doesn't make that any less ugly or any less wrong. We owe a lot; jobs, lives, friendships, relationships etc to the creation of this huge amazing thing called the Internet. Without the Internet you wouldn't be able to read this blog or watch Netflix but as with all good things, something horrible has also come out of it. Cyberbullying. Kids have decided that mean pranks aren't enough, hell no, they have to take it to the next level. There is this Disney Channel show, Binny and the ghost, that I was obsessed with. It's basically about a girl that meets a ghost (surprise!) and they become an unstoppable crime solving team...

Body positivity and beauty

Hey, Hannah here, I wanted to talk a bit about body positivity. Maybe not all, but lots of girls feel they aren't pretty enough, they ask  themselves,  questions like  "Is my nose too big?" and " What about my eyes?" As a girl I know exactly what it feels like to stand in front of the mirror for hours and hours wondering why I cant be prettier. The truth is it's not only girls that are insecure about their looks, boys can be too. The word has decided that if you don't look a particular way then you are "ugly". Unfit, not good enough, the media pastes pictures of  "beautiful" models with their tiny stick legs and even tinier waists. Everything about them is just so...  tiny.  They make it seem like if you do not look like them, if you don't look like a pin or aren't battling with anorexia, then you aren't beautiful. To me beauty isn't the way you look, its so much deeper, so much more significant than the way you loo...

Struggles with society

  Hey Hannah here, Have you ever felt like society is way too demanding? I  mean all these do's and dont's;  it gets frustrating. These are what I have face: *My grades need to be higher *My weight needs to be lower *My boobs need to be bigger *My waist needs to be smaller *My face needs to be prettier *So my friends will have to seem uglier *My hair needs to be longer *My skirt needs to be shorter I could go on and on and on about how society wants you to be this and that.  It gets so frustrating. It's just never enough. You need to be smarter but not so smart you are a smartypants, you need to talk to boys or you are too "conservative" but not or you are proud. You need to be bubbly but not so much that you are talkative. Honestly I am tired of everything. You can never seem to do anything right. More. It's always more. Society always wants more and I am sick of it.  Sick of never being enough, of always needing more, of giving...

Let's talk about the "D"

Hey Hannah here, Yes, it's time. "Time for what?" you ask. It's time to talk about something we've all been hiding from, that we have repeatedly ignored time and time again, something I think we are scared of. That's right lets talk about the "D". I can practically see you confused, probably thinking "what in cheesecakes is the "D?" or you're like me, you get so sucked into what you're reading that you don't even bother to think you just keep going, your mind avidly exploring the pages as if it were a new universe. The "D" my dear readers, is Depression. We generally tend to avoid this during discussion and it's starting to make me worry that we are scared of it. You are  probably wondering why, what makes it worrying that we are scared of the "D". The thing is  yes, its not a very comfortable topic but it is necessary that we open our eyes and realise that it is a major issue in todays society an...

Abusive relationships, what I think

Hey,  Hannah here, A lot of women all around the world get abused every day. Whether in harmful relationships, or toxic marriages, or in the work place. A lot of women are being treated like their lives don't matter and do you know the worst part? They don't do anything about it. They allow themselves to be subdued, though they do not say it, their silence does, they are agreeing that they do not matter. Many women allow their husbands to treat them like dirt because it shows "respect". What is the deal with our tradition and respect? Respect is fine. It's great when someone respects you and it is important to show respect as well  if you want it reciprocated. In that case, respect is fine but it gets to a point when you need to draw the line. Respect is not when you allow a man to beat you because you burnt the stew (or for any reason, that was just what came to my mind), or when you allow your boss to take advantage of you. That is not respect. Stand up for ...

People have changed history, so can you!

Hey Hannah here, Over the years people have done great things. We have discovered, we've learnt, we've lost, we've changed or adapted to certain changes in our environment or lives, we've fought, we've loved, we've done things we never could have fathomed we could, we've written, we've saved and have changed the world to become ours. It gets to a time that we have to stop and celebrate the people that have aided our achievements. That made mistakes, learnt from it ad have helped the world become better. These people have fought and some won while others lost. Whether they won or lost matters very little all that truly matters is that they gave it a try and they learnt. Learn more about these people who made the difference. This list is in no particular order, it's just random. *Marie and Pierre Curie: Marie was a Polish born French physicist. She and her husband discovered radioactivity and the radioactive elements: polonium and radium. Durin...

#SYD and trolls

You know it's very funny the things people can say, do, when they are behind a screen. The Internet has done amazing things. Created jobs, saved and changed lives but with all good things there is a bad side. The Internet is full of trolls. People who have nothing better to do than to try to bring you down. They don't see their lives getting any better, they don't see any purpose for themselves so they try to stop you. I understand sometimes on certain social media, say Youtube, people upload content that are of poor quality or are even harmful or offensive. In such cases it is understandable to express yourself in the comment  section, I mean thats what it's for; feedback. But when you do it to harm another person, then it's wrong. It's trolling. People online say things they couldn't face to face because the have the power of anonymousity, isn't that cowardice? It  shouldn't be like that. Lot's of people get depressed because of comments like...

The Impossible Zone

Hey, Hannah here,   Have you ever reached a time in your life when it looks like its all crumbling down and it is about to fall down and you're just like, "God, why?" Everything in your life seems to be going wrong and all you can do is to ask "why?". Why things always have to go wrong, why you can't just be happy, why life just cant be perfect. There's frustration and desperation coursing through you veins... Welcome to the impossible zone.  I watched a Ted talk video where there is this 13 year old Indian boy. In the video I watched him change Impossible to I'm possible. He was born with a condition that rendered him unable to stand or carry heavy weights it was said he would not live past a few days but he made it. He could memorise long words and their spellings as well as numbers quite easily. He started singing at a very young age and his parents took him to vocal training in both American and  Classical Indian music. He did a ragarap cove...
