The StarBlog Diaries: imweirdo

48 maanden geleden

The StarBlog Diaires is back with our first male doll entry in this series and exploring a new format... Tune in to get to know fellow Starblogger imweirdo!

Dear StarBlog readers, 

Thank you so much for endulging my interview! My name is Konstantinos and I am from Greece. I am 19 years old and the only goal I have right now is to complete my university studies with the highest degree I can earn. I study Greek Literature in the faculty of Classical Literature and my hobbies are drawing, making illustrations, reading a lot of books and playing Stardoll. At this time of my life I am studying Italian and I am very excited about it. 

Tell us about your Stardoll Journey!

"I discovered the game six years ago. I was in a chat with my friends at school about Stardoll and so I joined the same day. When I first played the game I didn't like it at all so I stopped playing. After a while another friend of mine reminded me the game so I made this account about five years ago. 

imweirdo was the first nickname that came to my mind. It is inspired by one of the most memorable phrases in Riverdale by Jughead Jones: "In case you haven't noticed, I am weird, I am a weirdo. I don't fit in and I don't want to fit in. 

Stardoll taught me a lot about fashion. So now, creating my one style is a thing that keeps me playing. But the most important thing is to talk to the friends I have made in this community. Also, StarBlogging is very interesting to me! What I don't like about the game is that there are very few stores for boys. There is only Mr. and a few outfits in the other stores. Therefore, I would like the staff to release a couple more men's stores. 

The Greek community used to be one of the most active in Stardoll. But now the Greek members are not as many and as active as they used to be. I would say that Stardoll was something like a trend that now it's gone. I had friends who were playing Stardoll but have stopped now, but they still ask me news about it."

Tell us more about your background and cultural interests!

"This question is my favorite! I admire three cultures, the Italian, the Dutch, and the Swedish. I have already started learning Italian and have planned a trip to the Netherlands (Eurovision!). For me, Italy has the greatest culture ever. There are great Italian artists, painters, writers and poets. The game gave me the chance to meet many friends from these countries and cultures and to learn even more interesting things about them! 

I am not a big fan of the culture of my country. Certainly the ancient and modern Greeks opened the way to man for politics, theater, literature, poetry, painting and sciences. But I believe that all these achievements of our civilization have now stopped. I admire Plato, Cavafy and Rhoides and I have written articles for them, but I don't think there are such bright minds in Greece anymore. However, Greece is renowned for its tourism and monuments, its food and a never-ending fun that spoils its culture. As Greeks we have the virus of politics and we are very much concerned with political events. And I like it. 

The culture of Greece is based on prejudice and superstition. This is how thousands of amulets have been created to protect man from the evil eye."

Words of Wisdom:

"Stardoll is just a game and we should not spend many hours in front of the computer for it. The game should not take time from your study. Also, as long as you play you should  follow the rules strictly and do not trust anyone. Play safely."
