Things That I Hate

My Boyfriend

He remembers when his friends tell him they will be online to play COD, but he can’t remember a dinner date we planned days in advance. Even after I reminded him the night before.

Being Called a Goody Goody

I’m not a goody goody, but I care about my future and try hard. I don’t understand why it’s considered “unpopular” to get good grades and not get a detention.

Guys

Okay, so I get that “one day you will find the one man perfect for you”. Well then, why are most guys such jerks? All we want is someone that isn’t a jerk. Sure, we all have differences, but could fate happen a little faster? I’m tired of being alone.

Glasses

Sometimes people are comfortable wearing them, but they just bother me. Sometimes people accidentally knock them off, and it gets embarrassing! I have the really dorky kind and I absolutely hate them. Also, I can’t wear sunglasses or 3D glasses. I’m fine wearing them at home or a lazy day at school, but otherwise, I’d love contacts.

People with No Manners

I was in Drama class and I was picked first to perform my miming act. Everything went smoothly and I finally got it over with. Then this other girl went after me and she did really well. After she was done this girl in front of me said, “Oh my god, that was so awesome. I like yours the best so far.” Really? I was the only one who went before her and I worked for hours! Everyone was glancing awkwardly to see my reaction. I was so embarrassed. That comment wasn’t needed.

When People Say Anorexia is Stupid

Yes, I am anorexic, no, it is not stupid. I can’t help it, I’m terrified of gaining weight. You want to know why? Because I don’t want to have that feeling of insecurity I had when I was ugly. I still feel ugly when I look on my mirror. Each pound I lose, the happier I get. I’m sick and tired of feeling weak and vulverable when I do eat. As bad as I absolutely need to gain weight, I can’t. I just can’t! I can’t explain anything about it to anybody without them understanding… I can’t even explain as I’m typing this. I wish people wouldn’t say “I understand”—you don’t. Others who are in my similar position do understand, but you don’t. I can’t stand hearing my sister saying “You need to eat more, this is ridiculous” or, “You’re too skinny.” Don’t tell me I’m skinny until I feel skinny enough. I can’t do this. How many times do I have to say, “I can’t”? I’m not that strong, healthy girl I used to be. Never in a million years would I have done this to my body and mind unless I felt absolutely awful and disgusted about myself. I’m sorry you don’t understand us anorexics. But most of all… I’m sorry you don’t understand how difficult this lifestyle is for me and the many anorexics/bulimics out here in this world.

When People Get Mad when I Don’t Like Their Opinions

My mom will suggest something. I won’t like it. I get yelled at. I even say “if I don’t like it, don’t get mad!” but she still does!

Being a Twin

I don’t hate my sister, I just hate the things that come with being a twin. I hate how people call me her name—even my parents do it sometimes. I hate how if we wear, for example, something similar but not the exact thing, everybody thinks we planned it, when actually we didn’t even discuss it. I hate how people don’t classify me as an individual. I’m my own person, not her. I hate how if she does something, everybody expects me to do it or like it.

High School Sterotypes

You know the movies, where kids shove freshmen in lockers, hang them by their underwear, dunk them in the toilet, or steal their clothes? Yeah, that doesn’t really happen. At least, not at my high school.

Teachers Who Cannot Teach Very Well

So, I have the worst geometry teacher ever… She just does the problems herself, never explains, just gives us the work, and when we get it wrong, she just gives us the answer instead of telling us what we did wrong and how to fix it. She skips steps, and she thinks we can actually work it out in our heads, but we can’t unless you tell us how to work it out step by step first. Her handwriting is completely horrible and not understandable. She’s one of those types of people who chooses favorites… When there is more than one possibility to work out a problem, she only explains one and just gives us the other formulas, but doesn’t go over it with us. She makes us copy notes and then she just takes it for more points, but doesn’t give it back to us to study. When we had a test, the test had nothing to do with what we had studied and what we took notes on… I don’t know how she got her job but she needs another before the whole class fails.
