It’s OK To Be Eclectic

It’s OK to be Eclectic. Multifarious. Manifold. Labyrinthine. All-embracing. Diversified. Co-mingled. Complex.

It’s OK to order bacon on your veggie burger.

It’s OK to identify as a lesbian — and dream about making out with Fox Mulder.

It’s OK to identify as a lesbian — and dream about BEING Fox Mulder.

It’s OK to load Leonard Bernstein, AC / DC, Maxïmo Park and Usher onto your iPod.

It’s OK to change your tagline. Your major. Your mind.

It’s OK to keep ‘em guessing.

It’s OK to shave your head, get a sick sleeve of tattoos — and start wearing power suits.

It’s OK to swing from corporate to anarchistic, and pull value from both sides.

It’s OK to advocate for prostitutes’ rights, and call yourself a feminist.

It’s OK to dabble.

It’s OK to toggle.

It’s OK to wiggle.

It’s OK to be a rebel with multiple causes.

It’s OK to order one of everything, with a side of more.

It’s OK to choose NOT to choose.

    You’re AWESOME. No, but seriously. OMFG. This just made my day. Especially the Fox Mulder (or should I say Smoulder!) bits.

  2. it’s okay to cry; it’s okay to say no; it’s okay to fingerpaint your cabinets; it’s okay to love MacGruber and Frontline; it’s okay to stay home; it’s okay to change everything, regularly; it’s okay to fight; it’s okay to pimp out your ride with astroturf. Yeah. You are okay.

  3. Tessa Zeng says:

    OK, now my next goals are definitely to dabble, toggle, AND wiggle! Sounds like more fun than any plans I’ve ever written down before.

    <3 this. Adding my bit:
    It's okay to surprise yourself, to devote the night to getting clear, to get ice cream at 10pm because it's what feels good right now. It's okay to have a web of tasks and ideas in mind and lose the spider.
