Twice within the last month, I'm crossing the pedestrian crossing with my buggy and literally come inches from being hit by a vehicle. This is ridiculous.
Yesterday I was mid-way crossing with my buggy and saw vehicle coming but the guy never slowed down. I had to jerk my buggy to a stop. He looked right at me. He had his window down and I could hear his wife screaming at him..."honey stop!"
I yelled at him but he kept going.
Same thing happened three weeks ago. A girl looked right at me and just kept going......I flicked her off.
Now I don't usually watch tv much anymore usually just a little bit of MTV here and there and I used to like their show "MADE" but definitely not so much anymore.
Dear MTV,
Thank you so much for portraying all band kids to be hopeless losers instead of musicians. In reality, we're quite happy with being in band actually. Sorry, none of us are sitting around wishing we were cheerleaders. Just when I thought your television station couldn't get any more shallow, you go and prove me wrong. So ...you can take your new "MADE the Movie" and shove it. Kthanx, bye.
My friend actually wrote that little "letter" rant and I couldn't have said it any better myself.
LoL, MTV has no idea what teens are anymore...the kids in my school were like bums and no one wanted to be in anything. We didn't have a band (they probably do now, I was a freshmen when the school first opened) but most of the "jocks" played baseball and the nerds all stayed together. I was a dork but friends with the most popular guy in school and hung out with the popular kids. The smart kids were the mean kids. I was only bullied freshmen year but this drug addict and these two random girls who had an issue with my shoes. I really don't know whats wrong with Sketchers? I'm wearing a pair now? But none of us wanted to be cheer leaders? We all wanted to be ourselves?
Oooh I'm excited and terrified cos I've signed up to an evening class at the local college starting tomorrow night I'm doing Introduction to Counselling. It might be something I turn in to a career eventually and it's taken me years to get brave enough to take this first step - brave cos of my depression which has gotten worse again the last few months so this was especially good that I did it.
I worked in a young person's secure unit and I was "Women's Officer" in my uni LGBT group and I think I really helped some people so I'd love to do this for real someday. I guess I'll just see how this class goes and take it from there.
Apparently because I like the RE movies, I have never played the games and know absolutely nothing about anything. I love it when people assume they know everything about me for one post I make on the internet. lol I just love setting them straight.
I'm pissed off. Couldn't sleep last night since I got a call from the girls' grandmother, she was ''worried'' about how some of my decisions will affect the girls. Um, ok, so you didn't give a poop about your own daughter when she was alive (said she was dead to you when she got pregnant the first time, remember?!), you don't even bother to call her or your granddaughters for 7 years and NOW you're ''worried''. Very funny. Some people really do deserve to get shot. (sorry if anyone finds it offensive, but I'm too pissed to care)
Don't get pissed off, just tell her if she decides to phone again that while you appreciate the concern- you are holding the girls well-being in every choice you make, and you would never make a desicion that would hurt the girls. Her opinions have been heard, but you have a very busy schedule to maintain and you need to go.
Anything after that though- I would tell her that you do not want to have the conversation, and ask she does not bring it up again.
Good luck!
