Guilty Pleasures

Okay guys, I have got a big fat confession to make!

I really need to get it out of my chest ASAP so bare with me, please and do not judge me... Remember: everyone has got at least a bunch of skeletons in his closet and the everyday life would be a little bit less interesting if guilty pleasures weren't part of it...

So, it was a dark and stormy night... I was just a 16 years old girl who knew nothing about life and self respect and especially I didn't know that some choices you make when you are young will eventually stick with you for the rest of your life...

Okay, I am letting it out now... I was a BACKSTREET BOYS FAN! I said it now, my secret is out! Oh gosh I feel so much better...


But my confession it's not over yet...

Because - as I said - our past sometimes catches up with the present and then these good old pleasures came back knocking on our door when we least expect it!

I was having a quick bite in the crew mess the other day and the Telly was on. I took a peek and what do my eyes see? Those 5 guys I used to love dancing and singing in a field. They didn't even aged a day... There they were... Like someone just took them out of the freezer... I took my sandwich kn silence and I went back to my cabin and this is what I did...

... I turned on my Mac, opened iTunes, wrote "backstreet boys" in the search thing and I found the shiny new album... 9.99 $... CLICK... Bought it... Mine...

Yep! I did it! And I am listening to it now... With my headphones because I have got a reputation and the thing is... I am not disliking it... So yes, haters are going to hate now, but I feel like I am 16 again, when I was use to listen to 'as long as you love me' all day long... And I feel good... A little bit ashamed but still GOOOOOOD! LOL!!!

So... That's it...

Peace out ;)

No need to be ashamed, IMO. I liked the Backstreet Boys too, when I was younger. Hell, I even put some of their songs into a mixed tape I made for my (then) boyfriend for when we were snogging, LOL! By the way, that tape also contained songs by Take That and the Spice Girls, who are even worse than the Backstreet Boys as far as fandom embarrassment is concerned. ;)

LoL... Don't even let me start with the whole mix tape topic... Good old days... But tell me the truth... Would you - like me - buy the album today when you are not 'young' anymore??? That is pretty crazy...

I am still listening to it now that I am writing... I took a break from it for a couple of hours but now it's back xD

A woman is only as old as she feels inside! Don't worry: as long as you're happy with what you do or with the music you listen to, who cares whether you are 18 or 80? I mean, I'm 38 already, but sometimes I still behave like a teenager when I'm with my fandom friends! ;)

The fandom keeps us young :)
