Commercials
Oh my god, they just take away time from my show. And then when it finally comes back on, they only say a few words and a commercial comes on again! Wow, I hate commercials!
When People Give You Hope
I asked someone something and they tried to warn me off it, then told me to think about it. When I came back the next day, I said I still wanted to do it, and they said no. Why couldn’t you just say no right away, instead of letting me think that there was a chance and that you would let me if I knew what I was in for?
Being Corrected Incorrectly
It drives me nuts to be corrected by someone, especially a “superior,†when I know they are incorrect. I am too polite to tell people they are wrong, because it feels rude, but afterwards I will agonize over the incident for months. This happened twice recently, once when someone corrected me that “quarterly†means every four months not three (which is incorrect), and once when my boss used “expediate†(not a word) instead of “expedite.†I didn’t say anything but now I am gritting my teeth over it. How does one point that out (especially to one’s boss) without being rude? It drives me crazy.
Some Love Songs
I like them, but I also hate them. I hate how they just give me false hope about love in some situations. But I also like how you can relate to them in a sense.
When the Boy You Like Has a Girlfriend
I hate seeing them together at school and I hate how it makes me feel like I have no chance. So then I get sad and listen to Taylor Swift.
Valentine’s Day
It’s great if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend, but if you don’t, you just feel so lonely and have no confidence.
When Someone Makes You Look Stupid
Today in band, my friend came over to look at my music. I play the oboe and she plays the clarinet. As she looked at it, she said “Oh, you guys have easy music. See, the little sticks are sticking up.†And in my head, I was thinking what in the world are you talking about?, but everybody else understood what she was saying. Since I’m blonde, everyone came to the conclusion that I’m a dumb blonde… Great, thanks bestie!
Constantly Changing Weather
So you’re sunny in the morning, ten minutes later it’s raining, then it snows, then it’s super hot, then it’s chilly. Come on, weather, make up your mind! I mean, I love all the seasons… but when it changes constantly, I kinda want to slap weather in the face. I get that every place has different weather, but think about it… not knowing what the weather will be like. It just irritates me when I have to change my wardrobe every ten minutes because of the constant changing weather.
Seeing Someone Feeling Broken
Today I found out that this girl’s horse, who she had a strong bond with, was going to be put down. I personally never felt as strongly as she did about this horse, but seeing her so broken at knowing she only has two more days to look into his eyes and dream of back when they used to jump fences together, before he got ill, breaks my heart. It’s the saddest thing I’ve seen in a while and I know some people may respond, saying it’s just an animal, but to her it was family, and was the only one that listened when she needed someone to talk to. Now, seeing how broken she is, it breaks me. Life is cruel sometimes.
Teenage Girls “in Loveâ€
You are not in love with him! He’s a stupid pubescent and hormonal child. He doesn’t really care about you at all, so stop investing your “love†into a high school relationship. Just wait a few years until these guys have grown up a bit before you decide that you’ve already found your soulmate.
