I'm Here To Tell You What Life Is Like As A Weeb Because, Well, I Am One

I'm Here To Tell You What Life Is Like As A Weeb Because, Well, I Am One

You either live long enough to see one or become one. Yes, I am a weeb. For those who don't know the proper definition, a weeb is a person who is heavily interested in anime and Japanese culture and includes Japanese words and phrases in their everyday speech while spending large amounts of money on anime and manga products.

It's not as bad as you think. Yeah, you might be considered a social outcast, weird, anti-social, and have a harem of gorgeous waifus, which I see as a win, but you still have anime right beside you. I'm just glad I don't give off that vibe to people. If I'm gonna give off a weird vibe to someone, I'd rather have it be for something else than for just being a weeb.

Now at some point in your life, you've probably wondered, "Man. What's it like to be that obsessed with anime and Japanese culture?" Hopefully, this either changes or affirms your opinion on weebs, but please do keep on thing in mind: Whether you hate us or love us, 2D will never break our hearts.

That's a joke. You can laugh now.

1. Anime Anime Anime

You ever just have a list of shows that you have in your watch later list? You ever just keep adding more shows to that said list, and your backlog just keeps growing and growing? You do? Good. Now take those shows and replace them with anime. I can't get enough of it. It's literally the main thing I watch. Yeah I watch other shows, but anime will always be number one in my eyes. There's just something about it that just entices me and makes me wanna watch more and more of it. It's almost like how everyone's attached to new episodes of "The Bachelor."

2. Meet The Waifus and Husbandos

Everybody has done this in their lives. When you're watching a show or a movie, you say that an actress and actor is cute/hot, and you say how you wanna marry them. Well, replace them with anime characters and real people. If they're male they're called husbandos, and if they're female they're called waifus. You might be wondering if I have any waifus. Yes, yes I do. Ibuki Mioda from "Danganronpa" is #1 best girl. Does that make me a loser? Maybe, but then again, other people fantasize about themselves with other celebrities they have zero chance of getting with, so I say we're even.

3. ​Anime Art & Drawings 

Maybe this part is just me, but I can't get enough of anime art and drawing. I follow about like 50 accounts on Twitter dedicated to reposting art, and it's just so aesthetically pleasing. I'm honestly kinda envious that I can't draw like that, not that I can draw like that at all, so following a ton of accounts kinda eases that pain a little bit.

4. Wanna See My Playlist?

My whole playlist on Apple Music is mixed with real music and music from anime soundtracks or from Japanese groups. If someone saw it, it would instantly shock them because they don't get that nerdy weeb vibe from me. Want some suggestions? Snow Halation and Miku. Check them out if you're interested.

These are the main generalizations about how weebish I am. Like I said, when people see me, it's honestly not that bad. It's not that I'm treated differently or anything. It's almost like a shot. It's quick and painless, like a quick shot. So I hope this gave you some idea of what it's like to be a weeb. Just promise me the next time you see one, don't be a dick. Thanks, senpai.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
