My Mind Is Racing In ... One Direction

Yeah...

I've never been one to be drawn to things that everyone is raving about. I never read Twilight or Hunger Games until I saw the movies (and then still not on the bandwagons. Okay maybe on the Hunger Games.) I never went crazy about Justin Bieber when he came out (Baby, baby, baby. Oh?). And now here we are at One Direction.

I've heard several of their songs on the radio. Love them. Know them by heart. But I wouldn't call myself a fan.

And then I saw the music video for "Best Song Ever". Oh. My. Gosh. Did you SEE them!?

I didn't realize until Friday that they were gorgeous. Like, man why didn't anyone tell me!?

So then of course I had to reflect back on the past three years of my life and figure out where I've been.

Three years ago I was in Provo, Utah at school. 19 years old. How old were the members of One Direction? 16, 17, 16, 16, and 18. Okay so not that big of a difference but at 19 years old and just coming home from an internship where I dated guys who were 23+ years old, they were YOUNG!

So I just brushed them off. And if you look back when they first started they all look like baby tods. They are cute but not hot. But now...

Man really...I could go on and on. I've gone back and watched several of their music videos and listened to their songs. I've even watched their X-Factor auditions. I mean...I can't get this guys off my mind.

So let's tally this up: They are hot, they can sing, they have accents, and there are five of them. Why would anyone hate them?! But really...

Personally I favor Liam but they are all awesome.

Seriously though...since I got it on Friday, I have listened to "Best Song Ever" 428 times (at 1400 it was 396...I listened to it 32 more times in six hours. And it continues to play as I write this...429) *side note: just listened to it another time...430*

My four year old niece watched the music video with me and when it finished she said "Again! Let's watch it again!" We're both hooked.

But really all hot guy jokes aside...this guys really can sing. That is the best thing about singers who make it off these reality tv shows. They can actually sing! Which is really refreshing when other pop artists are all synthesized and whatnot.

I'm a Directioner...who'd a thunk!? :]

By the way: I didn't know that One Direction fans were called Directioners. I was sitting thinking about what they would call themselves (you know Justin Bieber has his Bielibers...) and all that came to my mind was the Onesies. I mean, I like it. I wouldn't mind saying "I'm a Onesie!" But I like Directioner, too haha :] Maybe I can get Onesie to be a thing...
