And if I fall, I'll take it all, it's so easy after all...
Good evening.
People frustrate me. I'm sure everyone has someone who ALWAYS manages to annoy them. Someone who, no matter what they do, just doesn't do it right in your eyes. Someone who you think is expendable, so they should just wear a red shirt. (Star Trek reference for anyone who doesn't get it.)
Well, this one person in my life, happened to prove a couple of my views on life in one action.
First: He showed me that people act irrationally and that most teenage boys are immature.
Second: How instantaneous we, as a society, need things done. There is no patience.
Third: People do not know how to properly use Social Networking sites.
Fourth: He reinstated my belief of Dragons, Good Men and Other Fantasy Creatures.
What this young fellow did, who has always annoyed me no matter what, was break up with his girlfriend of 2 years and 10 months, by clicking 'Single' on Facebook. At one point in time, after an argument, he thought the best solution was to break up with her. On Facebook. He obviously didn't care about how much she had invested into the relationship or the consequences when he clicked that button, completely out of the blue.
Now, I've also realized how much women frustrate me. Why are they unable to move on? Why must they feel obligated to give the doucehyphenbags a second chance? Right after they just went and did some jerk move? How many times must someone break up with you until you realize you deserve a hell of a lot better? So many questions...no answers...
This leads me to high school drama.
Grade 9 had it's ups and downs.
Grade 10 was horrid.
Grade 11 was alright.
And so far this year it's been comparably quiet.
Is this a sign of maturity? Or are we just adjusting? Are we growing up and realizing what we want? Or are we simply more tolerable of things that once made us react differently?
Regardless, it is times likes these where I really wish people thought before they acted. Because that one click of a button could be same thing as the wrong word said in an interview, or that one angry look at your boss that gets you fired.
