being sure of myself

i happened to come across this quote this week using a scrubs quote generator that...says it all.
"I guess it comes down to how we want to be seen by other people. Some people want to be seen as the rebel. Some people just want to be seen, period. Some people have limits on how far they'll go to protect their image. For me, it was when I stopped worrying about how other people saw me that I finally started to look better."
-- J.D. from Scrubs
so take THAT, my detractors. enough has been said about this topic for now so i've no need to say more, other than that the above advice couldn't be more true, having seen it play out in my life over the past few months now (and counting).

on another note, i can't believe november has already swept into my life. time flies when you're not keeping tabs on it. and i saw stardust today. which surprisingly wasn't as cheesy as i thought it would be, thanks to lots of wit and a reasonable enough plot, although i have yet to read neil gaiman's written version of it. can't wait to watch derek mcdreamy -- oops, i mean patrick dempsey -- in action when enchanted (a similar fairytale-themed movie) comes out soon. hee!
