There are a lot of things in this life that I love, almost all of them are dorky. Alright, let’s be honest, they are all dorky. So, I decided that I would share a few of the extremely dorky things that I love and most certainly will not apologize for loving.

1. Disney Channel Original Movies (DCOM)

DCOM’s are beloved by all, I mean, there is no one that doesn’t like High School Musical but my love for these movies go beyond my love for this one movie. I have watched almost every DCOM that has premiered between 1998 to 2015. Of course, the older I got, the less of these movies that I have watched.

2. Musicals

I love musicals, DCOM or not. I have loved every musical that I have ever watched, or even just heard the soundtrack too. Some of my favorite musicals include Rent, Hamilton, and Grease.

3. Romantic Comedies

I adore romantic comedies. As far as movies go, this is probably my favorite genre. The first romantic comedy that I ever watched was The Proposal and it is, still to this day, one of my favorite movies – followed closely by Leap Year.

4. Memes

Who doesn’t love a good meme? I think they are hilarious and wholesome memes are the best. Memes are popular and a part of mainstream media, but they are overall pretty dorky. The best memes, in my opinion, are any Kermit the Frog memes.

5. Funny videos

I love any funny video, usually Vines (rip). Any funny video compilations or old Vines are guaranteed to make me laugh. Any Vine by Thomas Sanders is worth watching (repeatedly).

6. Bad Jokes

Two words: dad jokes. It’s ridiculous how much I love bad jokes. Bad jokes are the perfect way to make me giggle and they are sure to make me laugh harder than normal and thought-out jokes.

7. Reading

It sounds dorky but I really love to read. Basically, any book I can get my hands on, I will read. I have always loved to read and the love continues today. I have a long list of books to read before this year ends and I’m pretty psyched about it.

8. Kid's Shows

This is the ultimate dorky thing that I love; kid’s shows. In my defense, I do not watch the shows without my nieces or young cousin and not every kid show is enjoyable (or even watchable). It’s just that watching these shows remind me of my childhood, which was a much simpler time in my life. Besides, who doesn’t like a good episode of SpongeBob SquarePants every once in a while?

These are some of the dorky things that I absolutely love and will not apologize for. I recommend that everyone experience these simple joys in life.
