'All Good Things...'

This is probably definitely the wrong audience to refer to The Hills over, kind of like how the kids of Tumblr are with the Twilight Series, but after watching its Finale there's little I can do to control my hands, (that seem to be typing away at an impressive speed). It's similar to how my eyes couldn't hold the tears. That's right, I cried. A lot. Whether or not that have been their intention when collaborating all the clips and music and all that contributes to the too-short twenty minutes, I did cry more than I reckon any of my peers will do. It wasn't solely that it's the end of an era, but the message that was consistent in the episode. That they are so young but feel already like they have to choose their more permanent paths whilst their roomies do so and continue to say how they're 'growing up so fast' seems a little overwhelming. That'll be us in ten years, guys. I don't want to have settled down by then. I will have yet to explore farther distances in the world. I'd barely have even snapped a fraction of the shots I'd like to take in the contrasting climates and scenes and landscapes the Earth has to offer; met not even half of the people I'd be satisfied with meeting; tasted only a little of the foods and drinks developed by different cultures. Considering the characters of the cast too, their crazy and cool lifestyles surely cannot have now faded so much because they are looking to 'really find [themselves]'. Mid-twenties crisis', fuck off will you? You've just murdered a kick-ass show that has been entertainment and dare I say it, some kind of inspiration to me for four approaching five years. Not so much inspiration as just aspiring to have their easy-going lives with a large pay-check being a common-occurrance. I'll truly miss the characters, so while there's the whole 'is she/isn't she?' debate over an "Audrina Show" and Heidi doing some spin-off, I'll just follow them on Twitter. But I'll really miss watching my friends date and grow and play and laugh every Sunday night. Thank you, MTV, you've been a reliable and satisfactory host.
