This is basically Elsa's character in a nutshell.I can relate to those words easily.
Originally,I didn't love Elsa that much,I thought she was okay and felt neutral about her.That is until I re-watched the movie 2 months ago and from that day on,I realized just how much I have in common with her.
It was like I was seeing myself in her,for me that meant so much,and I'm thankful for that.
You see,my mom told me to hold back my emotions at school because I have big anger issues and I can get mad easily.I usually try to hold them back because I don't wanna get into trouble or to embarrass myself.
The school where I'm going is quite possibly the most miserable place I've ever been in my entire life.Everything is a big snore fest,almost every kid is an annoying,obnoxious idiot and the teachers are probably just as stupid,if not more.
Okay,back on tracks.
Believe it or not but over the years I developed avoidant personality disorder and became anxious,I isolate myself from my family members because I prefer solitude and I don't really talk to any other kid because I don't think that they'll like what I like.I'm also very shy and just not that social.
Here are some similarities I have with Elsa:
-I often lose my temper and snap at the ones I love,even though I'm a peace lover and I love them,they usually force me;
-I don't really like goofing around;
-I love deeply,even though sometimes I act very grumpy towards them,I still love them and I'd be crushed if something happens to them;
-I have great eyes to detail(in other words I'm artistic);
-I look good in blue,though I look better in black;
-I don't smile that much,I'm usually depressed,angry and just not that smiley;
-I'm very secretive towards others;
-I'm somewhat emotionally vulnerable but only sometimes;
-I can be elegant;
-I have a sense of responsibility;
-I'm the ruler of my own kingdom(figuratively);
-Love chocolate(who doesn't?);
-I isolate myself from others because I don't want to hurt them with my anger and I prefer staying alone sometimes because I got very used to the loneliness;
-I have a nasal voice;
-I don't need anyone to complete me;
-People usually misjudge me,even though I'm a peace loving person and a straight guy(most of the boys think I'm gay,even though I'm not);
-I have a playful side to me;
-I'm more mature than the others of my age;
-I'm much more different the others of my age;
-Put others needs above mine(most of the time);
-I care more about the ones I love more than I care about myself;
-The cold never bothered me anyway.
I love her so much because how much she has in common with me.But just because how much we're alike,you'd think she doesn't really have a personality because I was just seeing myself in her,but you're wrong,I think that Elsa does have a personality of her own.
I always thought that she has a personality is similar to Mary Poppins,being strict and strong but also loving and having a lot of fun to her.
People usually say that she has no personality besides her powers and that she's selfish,but I strongly disagree with both arguments.
Especially with the argument that she has no personality.Well she is the deuteragonists,it would make sense for Anna to have more screen time.But I think she has more personality than most of the other princesses (most of them).I think she did more to the plot than Anna did.It's that Anna's duty in the plot was to go after her sister while her duty in plot was to run away,protecting Arandelle.
Besides,I read the "Sister more like me book"which said that Elsa loves geometry,studying,cleanliness and tea,since she is really good at castle building,she has spent hours a day studying in her bedroom for 13 years,which means that she must have a university level understanding of all school subjects.And she shown maturity when she refused t bless the marriage between Anna and Hans,which proves that she is indeed intelligent.
Also one thing about her personality is that people usually forget that she's quite curious.You can see that she is curious when she's looking at the window as a child and being amazed by her powers.The same thing happened when she was finally using her powers to build her castle and when she found out that she could give life to a snowman.She just doesn't show her curiosity like the other princesses (even though she's a queen).
I almost forgot to say that the animation in Frozen is wonderful and you can notice Elsa's emotions by looking at her face.
Also more thing about her personality is that most of the time she acts more like a mother and not as a sister.I mean,she has to take care of her sister and her kingdom and has to make sure that Anna and the rest of the people in Arendelle are safe,so it would make sense for her to be more mature.
And I always thought that she was an aromantic,and I love that idea because that makes her unique,so I support her being single.I ship Elsa with nobody.
Why would they say that she has no personality?She's insecure,emotional,mature,intelligent,practical,elegant,sensitive,artistic,playful,curious,protective,selfless and when she wants,she can be motherly,caring and worries a lot.If that doesn't make a personality,then I don't know what does.
Many people say that Elsa is boring,but Elsa is a very interesting character to me.She has so many emotional problems and it's so hard for her to contain,I find that really interesting.Near the beginning she was optimistic where she didn't have to hide her powers.She then hit Anna with her magic and nearly killed her and has become a very mature young lady.I find that she can contain her emotions very impressive because she had so much in her life:she almost killed her sister(out of accident);her parents died;she has to live alone for the rest of her life amongst many subjects.I don't think Elsa is a boring character at all.
There seems to be a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to Elsa's strenght,in which I say ?!?!?!.I think people mistaken Elsa's vulnerability as weakness when really it just shows she's human.Although Elsa wants to be Anna just as much Anna wants to be with Elsa,she keeps herself away.When Anna says she wishes things would go back how it used to be,you can see the hurt in Elsa's eyes and how she wishes that too,but she can't because she keeps herself away from Anna to protect her.Also,Elsa was left alone in her room to suffer(but she did stuff that she liked like studying and geometry).She didn't have Anna's optimism that someday things would get better,she had the idea that she was a monster who hurt her precious sister and that's all she's going to be.
One of the things I also love about her is that her powers basically have no limits.I mean she basically has the entire power of winter on her side.Maybe she can shoot spikes of ice,create an army of snow-men or turn into a dragon made of ice.I definitely want to see that.
And she's really gorgeous.Everything about her stood out to me more than any other girl I met in real life.Those big bright blue eyes,her pale skin,that calm beautiful voice,that long braided hair that hangs over her shoulder,she's just perfect.
Most girls are just nice to me and treat me as a friend or ignore me and lean to the bad boy types.When we're doing photos,most of the girls are dressing themselves as hookers and shake their asses to rap music.
What a disgusting display!
It's such a shame that a woman my type is fictional,if I had the chance to interact with her I would.Ever since I saw the movie,there hasn't been a day when I wasn't thinking about her.I'm practically obsessed with her.
Even though I do think of Elsa as a possible true love,when I'm depressed,I grab a huge pillow and imagine that that's Elsa and I confess what pains me inside because she could probably understand what I'm going through,I don't usually do that to anyone else,only when I'm alone.I look at her as a secondary mother figure,whom I can look up to and remember.
Being voiced by Idina Menzel doesn't hurt either.I loved her voice in the movie by the way.The voice that Menzel lend to Elsa is one of the calmest most relaxing voices I've heard,so I think it's ideal casting.
When I see an Elsa hater,I get very angry,annoyed and depressed because she means so much to me.I love her because of who she is,not what she is.If she would have died in the movie or in the upcoming sequel,I would have cried harder than ever because I can't even describe my love for her.It's like insulting a role model of mine.But as the lyrics goes "I don't care,what they're going to say",I sort of took that as an advice because my opinion is what counts.Though I will admit,I read an article about her,saying that she's boring and I was just heartbroken,she means so much to me and saying that she's boring,bland and selfish is like saying for a kid that there is no Santa,for me it's works like that.
I understand that people have their opinions about everything and everyone,but I usually don't want to see what people say about her because I might change my mind and start hating her and that's one of the things I would hate to do.I will always believe in her.She taught me the lesson that "Being emotionally vulnerable,doesn't mean you aren't powerful" and that meant a lot to me and I thank her for that.I wish she was by my side because I really need her.
For all these reasons and more,if I even needed more,Elsa is my all time favorite Disney character.
One of the reasons I love her.
I wish I was in Olaf's place.
