Good morning, folks! This morning is a very special morning because I will be making points that refer directly to the people in my life. It is all up to you to piece together which is for you and which is for another person. If you can't do that, tough shit. (: You may ask if it is or not, but you have to do it in a comment here. I don't want to sort through it on MySpace, okay kiddos? Fabulous! (Side note: Yes, I'm aware certain things that I'm writing apply to me and I'm WORKING on them. Don't you dare call me hypocritical or so help me gosh.)
#1. I believe that everyone lies at least a small bit, whether it's for personal amusement or to try and benefit another. There is, however, a line that should not be crossed. There are days when it is just simply beyond stupid to lie about and there are subjects that you should never lie about. If you say something knowing that someone has their hopes counting on it and you never follow through - that's a prime example.
#2. A key point in a friendship is knowing how to put yourself in the other person's shoes. That means that you have to take yourself out of your little content box and understand that not all things are easy to get over. Some things don't just go away and they take more than a week to deal with. Stick your feet in their shoes before acting irritated. Learn how to be understanding and accepting. Hell, one step further, be open-minded.
#3. If you don't like how someone handles their business or how what they say to you, say something to them. It really serves no point to make a generalized statement about "everyone" when it includes that person. It's quite rude and I'm getting quite tired of it.
#4. This applies to one person, not a group/numbers of you. Believe in me. For once. Believe that I won't hurt you and believe that I'd do anything you ask me to do. Just humor me, please. For God sakes, if I'm still loving you now, it isn't going away. Wake up. Smell the roses, darling.
Things are not easy as pie for me at the given time. Don't give me your pity, there's no reason to and it is very unnecessary. My mentality isn't perfect and I'm not concerned about myself or much of anyone besides exactly seven people. Lately things are really busy over here and my grandmother is not doing well, m'kay? Who do you think is going to take priority, really. She gave my mom life, she just lost her husband. Get the point that I'm not going to be able to chill with you every day or call or write, etc. I'm trying, more than you can see, obviously. I need slack right now, graduation is coming up and I'm trying to get my classes caught up in. Unless you're a senior right at this moment, don't give me that bullshit about calming down and that I can do it. I'm aware of what I'm capable of and I know how hard I'm going to push for it to get done, but in order to that, I can't have people breathing down my throat 24/7.
UNDERSTAND. I try my best to do it with each of you. Doesn't make me perfect. Doesn't make you perfect. Everyone is entitled to their flaws and this is my opinion right now. If it offended you for how blunt those little four numbers were, you shouldn't have read it. That's it, no apologies. You don't have to be talkative with me, you don't have to even acknowledge me. The end. (:
