The Struggles Of Living The Wattpad Life

Decorating Your Profile On Wattpad

I am still so freaking upset this didn't fit into my background image:

STEVE LOOKS SO SCARED AND CONCERNED 'omg it's a knife someONE SAVE ME' 

AND BUCKY LOOKS SO SURPRISED LIKE 'Hydra didn't tell me I can make thINGS FLOAT'

 I LOVE MY SMOL BEANS

Also, please take note my profile picture (at this time, May 12th, 2017, 7:33 p.m. at time of writing) is currently Lana Del Rey and not Bucky- this is a historical moment, but I was feeling spicy today. You can't blame me for feeling spicy, sometimes things just happen. 

Who knows what it will be for those people reading in the future (if there is a future).

Speaking of background images, that subject brings me too the theme of this chapter: decorating your profile. I know I can't be the only one who rearranges their entire profile every day. 

Well, okay, I might not do it everyday, but if you visit my profile often you'll notice the pictures will change and my bio has new quotes everywhere. 

I just like a new look every now and then- it makes me feel happy inside. 

And of course, I can't be the only one who giggles in anticipation when I decide it's time to change things out. I go look for a new Bucky picture, I decide which music artist will be in the background, and I go on a search for a cool quote to put in my bio. 

This process gives me literal pleasure, I kid you not, I love it that much. 

Screw sex, kids! Just decorate your profile on Facebook or something! Swap that picture of anime out for something spicy, like... I don't know, different anime! 

It's safer than safe sex, at least.

But with these sudden urges to refresh everything on your profile comes a few struggles. Like picking out a picture you love and having searched for it for hours:

And having it look like this on your profile once added:

I have no words that can explain how much I truly hate it so gosh darn much when that happens. 

Another struggle is the words in your bio. I mean, there is either to many words all heaped in a mess or to little and your bio seems naked. I'm never satisfied about what is in my bio or what isn't in my bio- but eventually, I just have to roll with it and tell my brain to shut up because I'm 50% sure I don't have OCD. 

And don't even get me started on picking out the pictures. I mean, how am I supposed to decide if I should have Bucky, Cisco, Caitin, Lana Del Rey, Melanie, Darth Vader, Sam Wilson, Peggy, Natasha, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Loki, Captain Cold, Flash, Batman, Tony, Harry Wells, or Steve as my little profile picture or as my back ground image? 

Who do I want others to see first- Bucky, Lana or Vader? 

It's a decision I have to make all to often. 

In the end (I haven't used that quote in forever so I'm golden) I may be the only one who has this problem. But I'm pretty sure I'm not. If you're one of those people who can go years without changing anything but their bio every once in a while, consider yourself lucky- you've been spared of the baloney sandwich I've been through for years. 

:-D

I haven't written a little power nugget chapter in a while... gosh, that felt nice. 

Oh, before I go, I'm thinking about changing my username to 'evil-plum-girl' before I possibly get too popular and 'evil-converse-girl' sticks- or do ya'll think 'converse' has already stuck? 

Until next time, if you knew anything about me, you would know I hate the name Caitlin.
