LIFE

GL girls, meet Awsten Knight. He's the lead singer of the pop-punk band Waterparks (a must-listen if you love 5 Seconds of Summer, trust) and there are a few things you should know about him and his band...

1. Awsten is not a smurf, but does have amazing blue hair. 2. Waterparks released their first album, Double Dare, last fall. 3. Just as his chivalrous last name suggests, Awsten gives amazing advice, and he's here to save the day by dishing out answers to questions you sent in just for him!

You asked...
"This is a weird question, but here it goes. I used to be a Star Wars fangirl, but my fangirling turned into a hateful obsession that drains so much energy from me. I can't stop thinking about it, how horrible it is, etc., and I feel anxiety about any upcoming Star Wars-related events. I just want to get rid of all this bad energy. What do I do?"

Awsten answered...
Dang, this sounds exhausting and way not fun. First off, you need a Star Wars purge in your life, for sure. Stop looking at Star Wars stuff online and unfollow all the accounts related to it on Twitter, Instagram, etc. and find new interests, preferably physical ones that get your mind on other things of a productive nature (like music, painting or fitness). That's not to say you can't indulge again eventually, but you definitely need a breather from Star Wars so you can go back to enjoying it for what it is: a fantasy franchise about laser swords. Good luck!
