Every once in awhile we are forced to learn lessons, lessons that we don't feel need to be learned. Sometimes we will make a mistake that we don't consider one, but when somebody else points it out to us and we look at it from a different point of view, it really may have been a mistake, and then we realize the failure on our part.
Life takes us all in hundreds of different directions, some of us will be the most popular in high school, but after graduation wont know how to take care of themselves and will end up working at Taco Bell the rest of their lives. Others will be the quiet, kept to themselves kind, but in the near future will be running businesses, running for president or even becoming some famous celebrity. I never want to be the girl that counts on her high school years to take her somewhere in life. Someone once told me to take advantage of my looks and let it take me as far as I can go. But that isn't me, I want to know that I worked for what I have, i've never wanted to be the girl that had everything given to her, i've always been the type to earn my keep, or at least try my best. Expecting everything to be handed to you will get you absolutely nowhere in life, and if it does I just think that is sad and pathetic, and that when you are laying there in your last few minutes of life, you will not be proud of the life you've lived. You wont be able to say that you always worked hard and you earned what you had, you will just have been a lazy princess who got what she wanted. You were a spoiled brat who complained when mommy didn't buy you the necklace you wanted for your birthday. That is not the kind of person I ever want to be.
I tend to try my best to get along with everyone I can, but there are a few types of people that I absolutely can't stand. The kind of person that complains, 24/7, no matter what you say they are complaining. I have a friend who does this. He is completely spoiled, goes out to eat every night, his mom, whom doesn't make much money spends every penny she has on him to get him new sweaters or a new piercing or pay for his gas. His dad gets him free concert tickets through his company to any concert he wants to go to, and for some reason, every single time I see him, all he does is scream at people about how much he hates his life and how he has the worst luck and that people judge him too much and that he was forced to go out to dinner with his dad. It drives me absolutely over the edge, and when someone tries to talk about their lives to him he always finds a way to cut them off and somehow relate it to a story in his life, even though half the time you can tell he is just making up the story to fit in. I finally decided to move away from his group because I just couldn't take his complaining anymore, it was too overwhelming and brought my attitude down every single morning. So I moved to a different group, which just so happened to be the group of people that he hated most. I assumed I was safe from him here. But instead he started talking to them and trying to take my friends away as he does with anybody I hang out with. he started hanging out with my friends and telling them he loved them and trying to make me miserable. Thats another thing he does, because he isn't happy, he doesn't like to see other people happy, I have watched him sabotage several of my friends relationships because if he can't have a boyfriend than nobody else can. He is such a toxic person and not a real friend, and this is the kind of person that sometimes I just hope will fall off the face of the earth. And I am forced to sit across from him every single morning. But I will just keep having to put up with it, only five more months!!!
