So lately, me and a friend, let's call her 'Jade' , have been arguing.<br>She's rather hard headed and likes to talk like she knows everything... Everyone wishes they could know everything but it just can't happen lol.<br><br>She wanted me to show one of her cows.. So I went out to practice with it. She began to give me a long talk about how dairy cattle showing is by-far the most competitive thing to do.. Which I disagree with.<br>I just kept my mouth shut as I normally do around her. She's bigger than me and sometimes doesn't think before acting, if you get what I'm saying.<br><br>She kept going on and on about how "I know you show dogs, but I can guarantee you dairy cow shows are more competitive and harder." <br>If that's so, then why have people had their dogs drugged by others at shows? <br><br>I really believe that every animal sport is equally competitive, even if they are smaller. <br><br>This isn't even the part that throws me off about what happened between me and her though. That's not even the start.<br><br>So at a meeting before my county fair in late July, one of the parents held it instead of my FFA adviser. She brought up that I would need to find a chaperone for the fair, and said that she would do it and to talk to her about it later. That's all she said about it. Well about a week later I talked to her about her being my chaperone and she said to ask Jade's aunt. <br>(Note: this is my first year showing an animal in FFA at my fair. I did 4H a few years back but I don't even count that.)<br>I talked to Jade and said "So and so said that I should talk to your aunt to be my chaperone at fair. Would I be able to get her number from you?" Her response? "Ask her not me. I'm not my aunt".<br><br>So I asked another kid's parent to be my chaperone. 'Twas a yes, so that was done. Or so I thought.<br>I got a text from Jade later saying "You know you really should have gotten a chaperone in June." I responded saying "Alright, please remember that this is my first year doing this and to have some patience"<br>1. I did not know I would need a chaperone way back in June.<br>2. It was rude and unnecessary for her to bring that up after I found a chaperone.<br>3. Though Jade is president of the FFA, she is not the one who says if I go to fair or not. Since I'm not showing her cow there anyways, it should not concern her.<br>4. And my FFA wonders why we can't bring in newcomers. It's completely disorganized (For many other reasons than just this), political, and people are just flat out rude.<br><br>After about an hour of Jade harassing me over text (She should have at least called me to chew me out.) she finally stopped.<br><br>I tried to talk to my FFA adviser about this... She got mad at me for trying to talk to her about my issue. (Jade just happens to be her obvious favorite..) and instead of saying goodbye as she usually would when I left her office, she just gave me a rude look and said "You need to get this, this, and this done" She really hates changing anything.<br><br>This all happened AFTER our FFA officer meeting, which was all about how we need to be less negative, more polite, better at communicating, and more helpful to others in order to get more members.<br><br>My mother wants to pull me out because this is just pointless stress for me. I want to pull myself out even.
