People Who Say That Reading is for Nerds
I am not a nerd, and just because I enjoy reading, that does not make me a nerd.
Waking Up Before My Friend
I’m just awkwardly laying here, wide awake, and she’s sound asleep. I don’t want to wake her up, but c’mon, this is boring!
Stupid Mistakes
I got perfect attendance this year. Not a single tardy, not a single absence. There were a few days I felt very bad but came to school anyway, reminding myself that I didn’t want to mess up my record. Then, at the awards ceremony, I didn’t get announced as one of the three people with perfect attendance. So, in retrospect, I could’ve missed on those days where I chose to go specifically because of that stupid reward.
BED
I have Binge Eating Disorder—whenever I’m with my grandma I constantly overeat. I hate feeling like I’m about to burst. I always have to watch exactly how much I eat.
When Your Computer Replaces a Word Automatically
I just typed a whole paragraph and because it thought I said something when I wasn’t even done typing the word, it changed it. Now the paragraph has to be rewritten.
Working
If I work, I don’t want to work, but then if I don’t work I complain about being unemployed. I can’t win.
Gun Threats at School
Today a guy with a gun was in my school. We had a lovely hour long code red. We sat under our desks waiting for potential death and our school day was forty minutes longer than normal. The worst of it was… I had to pee and couldnt leave the class, so I was ready to burst.
“And They Lived Happily Ever Afterâ€
I hate that line! I hate it because it’s not true! Kids think that if they find their “prince†or “princess†they will live “happily ever afterâ€. I’m sorry, but thats not how it is. Happy endings are stories that haven’t finished yet.
When People Play Music out Loud
Honestly? I get it—I do it too—but that’s when I’m in my room, or I can actually hear the song, or I’m sure that the people around me also like the song. But it’s embarrassing when you’re with someone and (even if you do like the song) you are walking on a public place and there’s people around! You can feel right away if they don’t like the song. Or when you’re in a super crowded place and people decided to play music out loud, guess what? Not everyone likes that song! And it’s loud in here, come on! You love that song? You can barely even hear it!
Pretending You Are Someone else
One of my family members took my iPod when I wasn’t looking and they started texting all this false stuff that I would never say or think. I got really mad because I had to tell everyone that it wasn’t me who sent this texts, and some still didn’t believe me. Now I’m mad at the person who sent the texts and people are mad at me for something I didn’t do.
