#189- Belonging

i'm glad mr van long chose to do romulus, my father as our prescribed text for area of study. it's a really interesting memoir and well it's weird how it has influenced our opinion on the characters in the book (especially christina). this kinda leads onto how people take things based on face value and i'm sure we're all guilty of it.

so now i shall begin my mini rant (end post if you dont want to read it but the deep bit is at the end):
okay so first of all don't you hate it when people start judging because of certains that you do/ happen/etc.
what i find really irritating is how people have the audacity to criticise someone, when we barely know anything about them?

(to a certain individual) before you start spewing out words i think you should stop to reassess the situation, because believe or not you will be judged back in return. i'm glad that im not hurt by you because that would make me pathetic. who are you to judge how i deal with things when you don't even know my life story. when you do area of study you'll know that there are many things that affect a person and how they fit in so how dare you even think of such a thing. in the little time that i knew you i'm sure i've been more than just nice to you and well thanks for the memories (intense sarcasm). i wish you well with the fragile friendships that you have formed because im sure im not the only one hurt by you and your labelling.

ending: be true to yourself! at the end of the day the only person who you should please is yourself and once you're happy with yourself then worry about what everyone else has to think. (okay i might contradict myself here but hopefully you can understand this) False friendships aside, appreciate those who matter because those who bitch about you behind their back arent worthy of your love nor your attention and you definitely shouldnt demean yourself by worrying over such trivial things.
to all those people that worry about having severed ties, make the effort before it gets too awkward but if its a one way battle then give up because there are others who love and appreciate you more.
