Just because I feel like it..

MelmanKrow · June 2012

So like.. I'm sick of people. Noteveryone, just people from school. And certain other people in my life.. -People at school like to talk crap about me and my friends even when I can clearly hear them. And it takes every once of my body to not start a physical fight with them. I swear something is in the water (L0l.. my city is actually not supposed to drink the water because of a pressure drop.. but that's beside the point XD ) that is making them decide to annoy me to no end.. - And I said "Seriously. Could anything else go wrong this week. I'm so done with this.' and a chick told me I should 'stop all my complaining becase I have a loving family and food to eat and that I'm being greety(yes. that is what she said) because a lot of other people have it much worse'.. She doesn't know HALF of the stuff that I've been through in my life (reason why I had to poof for a few years but I won't get into that because it's a touchy subject and I don't like thinking about the past..) so she has NO reason or right to tell ME to stop complaining. And today I found out that after thinking I got a job, they tell me they can't hire me.. because I have gauges.. One of my best friends works there and she has bigger gauges than me.. uhm.. okay.. I couldn't even ask her about that because I had to basically run to my truck before I started crying my eyes out.. And on top of it all, I have my ACT testing this Saturday and I did some practice tests.. On the English one it said I would get a 20 and on the math one I did today I got 23 questions right out of 60 so I would get a 19.. fantastic dude. And blah blah blah.. It's the last day of school tomorrow before we start summer break and I should be happy as a pig in mud.. But I'm not, I'm at home crying off and on like a loner.. I feel like I can't do anything right anymore and I feel like all I did this year was let my parents down.. But yeah.. That's the end of my rant.. I just felt the need to vent about all this stuff.. even if you don't care because you don't know me, that's just fine with me, I just needed to get it off of my chest..

I do not mean to sound rude, but it does seem like you are complaining just a tad. I mean things could be worse and feeling sorry for yourself will not make anything better. I know many children in my line of work that have things way worse than you. Rumors are just apart of life, you can not go through school without someone saying something that is not true. You can not let it get to you like you are doing. If you know it is not true than that is all that matters.

You don't sound rude, I don't let rumors get to me, they were just saying stuff like they didn't like my friend and pointing at him and calling him 'fat' when he isn't fat at all. This week has just been stressful, and I know things could always be worse. Things have gotten wayyy better since even a few months ago. I wasn't trying to complain, I just felt the need to let it all out. I was mainly just upset because I also found out that after saying they hired me, I went in to do training for my new job, they told me that they couldn't hire me because of gauges.. and yet my friend who has been working there for like 4 or 5 months has her ears stretched too she just has to take them out.. but I got over it, it's whatever I just have to look for a new job. And it's summer now so I'm a bit happier. But I know, people have it worse than me, I know. Sometimes I just need to vent ya know?

This thread is FOR complaining. That's why it's called a vent thread. ;D People at school suck. Unfortunately, it doesn't get a heck of a lot better. Unless you become a recluse. Like me. The way I dealt with it at school was, honestly, just roll with it. If someone said I was anorexic, I challenged them to a hamburger eating contest. And then won. If someone said I was ugly, I'd reply, "Yeah, but think of how much I save in makeup!" (Well, that, or I'd get a bit snippy and reply, "And without that artificial mask of pasty crap, I bet you're just DAZZLING.") Basically I learned self defense through bad jokes and/or aggressive sarcasm.

But I made it! Also, never be afraid to stick up for you friends. I always stuck up for my friends, or at the very least, acted in a way that turned the negative comments to me rather than them. Also, it doesn't matter if people have it worse than you. This isn't a "Oh someone else's life sucks more." game. I honestly hate when people say that. "Oh well, at least you have xyz that's better than so-and-so." Because so-and-so complains too, I guarantee, and someone's life sucks worse than theirs too. And as far as jobs go- sometimes people are picky and biased. I got called in for an interview recently (my first one at that), and was declined because I "couldn't put together an outfit correctly". Not my outfit, mind. An outfit for an eight year old girl I've never met, with clothes in a store I'd never been in. And she didn't even look at what I put together, she tossed it at another employee and told them to just put it away. Know what I noticed about all the employees there? Bottle-blond hair, fake tans, and more stuff covering their faces than I've seen at a masquerade.

TL;DR It's good to complain. These are the Vent boards, thus, appropriate. People suck, become a recluse like me.

I understand what you are saying. I thought you were going around making a pitty party for yourself when I first read it and I just re-read it and understood it better and saw that you were not doing so. I am sorry for misunderstanding.

Kaz- Ohmuhgawd, you crack me up XDD But yeah, I usually come up with some sarcastic remark that shuts em up real quick, or I ask them if they have something to say to me and they end up walking away .. makes total sense, I know. That saying DOES bother me though.. because sure, someone else might have it worse than me.. but MY life isn't THAT person's life. I'm more focused on my life than someone elses, as self-centered as that sounds. But a lot of people are sucky, I stick to people that will accept me the very first time they meet me, otherwise, it ain't even worth my time trying. Either love me or hate me, I ain't changing. Cherokeez- It's all good, don't worry about it haha.

I know how you feel though. I am one of those people that everyone likes to talk about in school (not in a good way). It used to bother me REALLY badly, but I finally thought about it; I know what they are saying is not true and since it is not true, I won't let it get to me. If someone wants to make up lies about me to make themselves feel good, then have at it. I know it is not true and that is all that matters to me.

Yeah, I learned that too, but sometimes they say things that I've dealt with people making fun of my for my whole life.. Like when this freshman randomly called my friend the b word and then turned to me and called me 'bucky' .. I've had braces twice(I broke my bottom retainer and my teeth moved so I got them on again lulz) and my upper lip just isn't shapped normally so I can't close my mouth without trying (It's not like I look super weird, I just wasn't born looking like peoples' standards I guess you could say..) so I didn't even have a response but then my friends stepped in and yada yada they didn't say the nicest words but it really hurt that he had said that. And then they ended up saying other rude things about him before school the next day and either his sister or his cousin heard and they told the kid's mom who told the office and they ended up calling me down and saying I had "threatened his life" or something .. all I had done was stood there and listened to my music, I had no part in talking crap about him and whatnot. But they said it was two against one and that they wouldn't believe me. And then a girl in my group of friends flat out told them it was just me and her saying those things .. so I spent the day in ISS for something I never did.. I almost went to juvie for it .. Wonderful huh? But yeah, I know to ignore the stuff that isn't true, but sometimes it still hurtsabout it.. knowing

Howdy, Stranger!

Just because I feel like it..
