HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, SOCIAL REJECTS!

Hey guys, it's FAJ, LI, IK, ST, and SP!

So... how you guys been during these past few months? *awkward laugh*

We apologise tremendously for being M.I.A but none of us knew what to write for this post and how to write it. When we knew what to write we didn't have the time to write it down. We attempted to do it at school but it's recently been blocked for some odd reason.

But without further ado:

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY EVERYBODY!

The whole SR team are absolutely ecstatic and grateful that you guys have supported us throughout the past year or so.

Our first anniversary was on the 12th of November so Social Rejects is a year and a bit old.

We've all decided to send our own little messages to all of our readers so enjoy:

ST: IK asked me to do this so here goes... Guys, it's been a year eh? *sings happy birthday* A lot has changed within that year, hasn't it? Arguments, stress, joining fandoms. I guess this is the bit where I have to say something sentimental. Thanks for sticking with us for a year and expect more great things to come (fingers crossed). Never feel afraid to tell us something in the comments section below, we'd still love to hear any of your thoughts. I've lately been into a lot of Korean... well anything really, so from my phone screen to your device, saranghae Butterflies. 

IK: Guys!!! It's been a year! It's funny that we didn't think this would work out or that no one would read us but your response and your support have been phenomenal. We've all grown so much in the past year and a bit but don't fret we still have a lot (and I mean a lot) of growing to do. We've all had our fair share of stress, arguments and anxiety but we've managed to pull through so for all the SR team and for you guys back home a massive round of applause please *clappity clap clap*. As ST said please do comment anything you're feeling and we'll try our utmost best to respond and help your through anything you're dealing with. Stay beautiful, Muffins. 

FAJ: Hello Earthpeeps. Bloody hell one whole year, guys you are amazing like seriously, us guys just made this *censored word* blog as a simple thing and now we do it all the time, the last year and a bit has had its ups and downs and the SR crew may have had a few arguments (mainly with me) be we still love posting (I think) and it's cool that it's still going on and still will be in the future, so you better stay here for some more weird shit xxx. 

LI: IK has been pestering me to write this so here it is. A massive, massive thank you to all you humans back home who have stayed with this and have bothered to read our posts eventhough they aren't that fantastic. I love the fact that you guys have been on this year long journey with us as we have developed into slightly different people and I bet so have all of you. I really cannot believe it's been a year since we sat down during lunch at school and decided to create a blog. I'm so proud of all of the SR team and I'm very thankful to all of you. Stay with this to see our future posts as well. Adios, Bitchachos. 

SP: Finally! ONE YEAR HAS PASSED! I'm so proud. We've gone a long way with this blog and I'm pretty excited to see where this blog will lead us to in the future. You guys have been oh so supportive and on everyone's behalf - THANK YOU. 

Eventhough everything is cheery right now we must bid adieu to our eldest member SK as we respect her decision to not want to be a part of Social Rejects anymore. We also have to say auf wiedersehen to SP, our youngest member. Emotional times guys.

Our regular updating shall resume almost instantly and we hope you guys will stay with us for the second year as well eventhough there's only four of us left out of the original six.

Saranghae, Butterflies - SK :D

Stay beautiful, Muffins - IK :D

Bye, Earthpeeps xxx - FAJ :D

Adios, Bitchachos - LI :D

Anxiety

Hello earthpeps, guess who is back, yes you are right its me FAJ. Ok so today I am gonna have kinda a serious subject.

I have had anxiety for about 7 years now, like whoop whoop fuck you anxiety. I still remember when I first had an anxiety attack, I didn't know what it was when I had it. I have always had a fear of planes, as kid I never understood how it was possible for something to float in the air and I had always heard anout plane crashes, so this was the second time I was going to get on a plane, and before we boarded, I was well shitting myself, and I was thinking if all these bad scenarios, and well I felt as if I couldn't breathe and that's how I had my first anxiety attack, I thought it was something to do with my asthma as did my parents, but then there was horrid turbulence on the plane, and I had a very bad panic attack, I don't know how to explain it, but it was one of the worst experiences of my life, I remember when the plane landed everyone was surrounding me I didn't even know who these strangers where. It was all a blur for me.
When I was 11, I learnt what anxiety and panic attacks where, and that's when I realised that I suffered from this illness or whatever it is classified as.I found myself having more and more panic and attacks, I still remember in year 8 I had an anxiety Attack in front of my whole English class when doing a presentation, I just wasn't able to do it, and so I broke down crying and toldgmy teacher that I couldn't, it was probably one of the most embarrassing moments of ny life, and where I felt so weak.

Everyday when I walk to school I worry so much for the day ahead and stupid things like if I forgot something. Its not fun and I am just grateful to have such kind friends who are there for me. Like these bitches be blood (hehhehe alliteration ) .

I still get anxiety ans panic attacks but theres nothing that I can really do. You need to remember you can't get rid of it permanently but you can maintain and make it well 'less' there I don't know how to explain it.

Just remember guys all the SR group will be there for you and don't be scared to let us know if you need any help. 

Anxiety is a cruel thing you need to learn to accept it and not let it get to you.

Stay strong my earthpeps.

Bye Earthpeps

Star Wars

Hey guys it's IK here and guessing by the title you must know that I'm talking about the one... and the only... STAR WARS FRANCHISE!

LI, ST and I have been having a Star Wars marathon (my third one :D) in anticipation of Star Wars:The Force Awakens. Everytime I watch the series my heart just shatters and I just... I just can't reciprocate my emotions with my actions anymore.

Anywho can I just say that the original three films are better than the prequels - no offence. The original series were just more captivating and then Episode 6 was just a heart wrench I swear. One more thing I'd like to point out is that people who don't watch Star Wars and just follow the rumours believe that the way Luke found out that Darth Vader was his father (it's not a spoiler as practically the whole world knows) is by the line,"Luke, I am your father," when in fact the line is actually, "no, I am you father." BOMB DROPPED.

At the end of Episode 3 is where the complications of Padme's death arise (again not a spoiler since the film's been out for like 10 years). There's a theory which I believe is quite realistic (in the fantasy sense that is) that Chancellor Palpatine took the Living Force out of Padme after she gave birth to the twins and gave the life to Anakin as he was so very close to dying but as Anakin was going to be his new apprentice he needed him to be alive. After Anakin had fully transformed into Darth Vader he could sense that Padme was alive for a minute before suddenly feeling that she had died. Chancellor Palpatine knew that Padme had died because he was the cause of it. As Padme took her final breaths, Anakin took his first ones in the form of Darth Vader.

There's another one where Padme just lost the will to live after she had realised what Anakin had become, and then again Anakin had strangled her which shows her that his love for her was basically demolished. So you could say she died of a broken heart. How unfortunate. Stupid Anakin.

Yoda though :D I love Yoda honestly. The original Yoda (puppet) was better than the CGI version in my opinion and now I feel quite old by saying that eventhough I'm only fourteen. *Sigh* Yoda is just amazing. Actually a teacher at our school can do a pretty awesome Yoda impersonation. LI and I were so shocked but ST and FAJ were just laughing. We were laughing at your reactions :) - ST The Force is strong within us as you may have noticed. Absolutely amazing, Yoda is. There's a bit of Yoda talk for you.
Episode 5 : The Empire Strikes back is where Luke first meets Yoda and their first meeting was absolutely hilarious. I'm gonna link it for you guys.

The Force Awakens has awoken so go and watch it and comment below about your favourite Star Wars film/s. May The Force Be With You.

IF YOU'RE LIKE STELLA FROM How I Met Your Mother AND YOU DON'T LIKE STAR WARS... let's just say may the force not be with you xD just kidding. But seriously, if you've never seen star wars then watch it :) - ST

When 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not, hmm? - Yoda in Episode 6: Return of the Jedi.

- IK :D

Troye Sivan Blue Neighbourhood

Hey guys it's SP!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE WE ARE CLOSE TO HAVING 100 POSTSSSS!!!! SO PROUD!

Okay so today I was feeling quite bored so I thought that maybe I should do a post about what has been going on in my boring life. IK told me that we were close to having 100 posts and I went a tiny bit insane...anyways so as most of you may know Troye Sivan's new album 'Blue Neighbourhood' just came out and FAJ and ST kind of went crazy about it.

 So I was walking to FAJ's house like every day and she walked out with her red over the head headphones and she started dancing like a crazy maniac....okay so me being me I gave her a dirty look making an attempt to make her realise how atrociously disgusted I was by her weirdness and walked off, she ran up to me and said "I AM LISTENING TO BLUE NEIGHBOURHOOD!!!" At first I didn't really know what gibberish she was speaking but then it hit me that Troye's new album was out and I kind of just smiled at FAJ making sure she didn't realise that I forgot. So after a few steps I felt someone hit my arm and when I turned around I saw FAJ dancing to one of the songs and acting like a total imbecile. Again I walked a few steps away from her trying to get a little bit of space but she decided to annoy me by standing directly in front of me with her back facing me and dancing.

I made a mature decision yes a mature decision to just ignore her and walk to school like a normal person. Once we got to the bridge I took a video of FAJ doing one of her famous dance moves I call it 'the bird move!'........anywho I posted the video on Snapchat and I missed the best part which was FAJ  getting freaked out by her worst nightmare....a pigeon! DUN DUN DUN!!! So this happens every morning while me and FAJ walk to school. As we are walking there are usually many pigeons around and FAJ being herself uses me as a shield to get away from the pigeons. However, on this particular day FAJ was too engrossed into Troye's songs that she almost forgot that a pigeon was on the other side....waiting for her. I didn't tell her and I just let her walk straight into the trap. Once she was close enough to the pigeon she realised that it was right next to her so she started screaming and made a run for it. Even though it was really funny I ran to catch up to her and I started laughing at her she gave me a 'I am gonna kill you' look and that just made me laugh more. So we agreed to forget about it and I turned around to see if anyone was behind us and FAJ also turned around and said "Is ST there? We need to fangirl over Blue Neighbourhood!" But obviously ST was not there so we walked off to school and the whole day FAJ just talked about how she was in love with all the songs.

From the Blue Neighbourhood album, I love all the songs but my favourite are Suburbia, Youth, Heaven and Cool. But I love all of them!! So that is what happened on my totally normal Friday morning.

Our Stupid Little Dare

Hey guys it's IK after like fifty million years.

ST, LI and I are taking part in a stupid little dare put forward by a dear friend of ours who you guys most definitely do not know. XD -ST

Our dear friend has decided that we swear way too much so we are now no longer allowed to swear until the 17th of December. It isn't that bad anymore but the first day... agonising.

-LI

Truth LI. GAHHHH ZD NOOOOO WHYYY IMMA CRY. Goodbye -ST (also I have mad rhyming skills. I lie)

As ST has spoken our dear friend for the past three years ZD has now left us as she had to move houses. It was an emotional day yesterday with both FAJ and SP crying their eyes out and ST, LI and I on the verge of tears. Losing a friend is a painful experience. We all silently walked home yesterday, not knowing what to say because we were that devastated. *Sigh*

Back to the topic - the three of us have completed three weeks of not swearing. *Applause in the distance*. We've literally developed a new dictionary to replace our everyday swear words.

F-word : Fudge- caking hell.
S-word : Sheesh
P-word (an informal way of saying urinating) - Why're you being bloody stupid?

other words/phrases:
I dare you to continue.
I shall slap you.
Are you being serious, love?
*middle finger*
Stupid face, go away!
I don't like your presence.
You don't like my attitude? Good!

Ta daaa. Swearing is a necessary part of our lives but as the days progressed we're naturally just saying less foul language. Even putting up my middle finger feels weird. Our friend who dared us said she'd buy us triple Belgian chocolate cookies, so that's what we're aiming for. However if one of us does swear - accidentally or on purpose - then they'd have to be the slave of the remaining contestants and then the following swearer will have to do the same for the champion. ST is very confident that she alone will win - bloody nonsense.

I shall report back to you on how it goes. That's it for today guys and apologies if we don't post in the near near future since we have our mock exams and we need to be committed to those.

- IK :D

Mental Health

Hey Guys
I was supposed to do a post on this subject a really long time ago, but I didn't feel ready to talk about it. Mental health is a very underrated issue which affects many people all over the world. Some people may not notice or maybe they don't want to but anybody, even your neighbour could be suffering from a mental illness but what we as a society need to comprehend is that without understanding the situation there is no hope for our world. This world is a dark, bleak place and our actions are either its salvation or destruction .
The reason I wasn't ready to talk about this is because of how I felt. I myself when I was 10 years old was diagnosed with depression, Bulimia and Anxiety. I've never told anybody this, not even my friends but after my dad left I wasn't able to cope and I guess I broke but at that time I didn't have any friends I was all alone.
Being diagnosed isn't the end of the world, taking pills although unpleasant doesn't mean you're unrepairable, it just means you fight wars that people don't know about which makes you all the more stronger.
I can't say that I'm absolutely 100% happy, hell most of the time I'm moody and probably no fun but I'm still fighting and that's what everyone else is doing .
To everyone who is a little broken just know it's not the end, because we can all find peace and happiness. Even in the bleakest days there is always a ray of sunshine, you just have to look.
Sorry to talk about my personal life but this issue is personal.

The scorch trials (movie) review

Hello Earthpeps, how are you? And yes I am back 😊.
Ok so I am absolutely obsessed with the Maze runner series, its not even funny
So when the scorch trials came out I HAD to go watch it so I went on the 18th of September to watch it. (Sorry I didn't do this quicker)

And boy let me tell you it was shucking amazing like seriously Wes ball makes you feel as if you are with the gladers (well not gladers any more). I think that it incorporated the book very well. Even though it missed quite a few things, it was still very good. And beware you shall shed a few tears and I shed more than a few.

Honestly I love this series as it is so original and it is DEFINITELY NOT LIKE THE HUNGER GAMES. And to those who say that TMR has copied the hunger games, that's incorrect as they are two completely different stories. But everyone has their own preferences.

I DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY WITHOUT GIVING AWAY SPOILERS.

Oh Newt looks bloody hot in it and he has some great fashion sense in it😉.
Um Thomas gets steamy in a shower.

I was really upset that they didn't call Janson" Ratman" and yeah that's about all.

Go watch it shanks its shucking amazing you wont regret it
Whether your a Slinthead or a Greanue you will like it.

And by the ways I like using glader slang it bloody pisses ST of though.

Byeeeee
