They say that if someone bothers you and you take time out of your day to fuss about it, it isn't worth your time. Well, this is definitely not worth my time. But I think that it's funny so I figured I'd tell the world. I really don't "hate" this girl, I dislike her and she occasionally gets on my nerves. But "hate" is a wasted emotion, and I honestly don't care enough about her to waste so much energy on her. So I'll just blog about the hilarity of the situation.
So, I got to Leadership Orientation. And I liked everyone there, except there was this one girl that I got a weird vibe from. (I can kind of read people, but that's beside the point and makes for a different story). You know how there are those people that you immediately don't think you're going to like, either because your similar in one aspect or something about them just sort of bothers you? Well she was definitely one of those. But, hey. I don't dislike anyone and I give people the benefit of the doubt. So I let it slide.
Fast forward a day. She sort of weaseled her way into our group, but hey - I got to know her a bit and she seemed nice enough. It was only after I became friends with her that things really got to heat up.
So, FYI: I say a lot of stupid things, but I'm actually an intelligent person. However, she kind of took some of her remarks a little too far. But she seemed legitimately sorry for the rude things she said. So, whatever - it really didn't bother me. But things got worse and her true colors showed. It started out with just mocking me when just the girls were in my room. It got annoying and I told them to lay off. So I finally decided to take a shower and leave the two obnoxious girls.
When I got into the bathroom, the curtains to the shower were closed and I got a sort of ghostly vibe. "Hello," nobody answered. I opened the curtain, nobody was there. So I chose the stall a few down. Needless to say I was already a little freaked out, so when someone opened my curtain as a joke. I shrieked. Hey, it was a little scary in that bathroom!
One prank. That's a joke. No harm in that.
Then they flushed the toilet, which left a cold shiver down my spine. But that's still a joke.
I guess you could say that when the girl threw a cookie into my shower stall, I was unerved. A cookie. Yes. No not like "she threw cookies" as another way to say "spewed chunks." No. She threw a cookie into my shower stall. Now let's analyze this for a moment.
1. Who throws cookies into the shower?
2. It was my freaking cookie!
By this time I was getting pissed of. Especially since I had calmly said, "lay off," after the toilet flushing ordeal. Then it happened again. By this time I was already done with my shower so I just took a few minutes to cool off.
I then calmly walked into my room, where all the girls were to see the girl laughing her head off. Real mature. At this point I had two options.
1. Confront her: Which I normally would have done. I just didn't want to risk bitching her out or crying, what? I'm an emotional creature!
2. Calmly walk out of the room.
Needless to say, I changed, grabbed my things, and calmly left. This was college, and I certainly was not about to get involved in petty drama and pranks.
Was that your welcome-to-college prank? :o
ReplyDeleteWhat makes this situation worse is that the other girls didn't say anything! I hate immature people :(
ReplyDelete@Ovals: I guess so
ReplyDelete@Hazel: That's what upset me so much, but I didn't return until the next morning and my roommate felt awful. It turns out they were trying to tell the girl to stop, but she wouldn't listen. They also didn't really know what she was doing. I'm just glad it wasn't a violent prank. But I'm over it. If anything it's kind of amusing now.
I take it you're in college years, yes? It'll be best to find a total new group of girls to hang out with. Moreover, I strongly recommend that you widen your blog's width in the template designer. It's not going to attract more readers if your entries are squeezed.
ReplyDelete@Centrist: Well, it's just this girl. The other two are some of my best friends. And the last one I don't know too well.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for the advice!
ReplyDeleteThe drama never ends for some people, during my first year of college I learned that for some the drama gets worse, but usually in college situations you can control it and walk away and it just means an end to a friendship that wasn't that strong yet anyway.
ReplyDelete@Bre: If anything I feel bad for people like that. They must be seriously disturbed to live such lives. But you have a point, thanks. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't have the patience that you do :P I would have got revenge somehow instead of walking calmly out. But you did the right thing an I salute you for that :D
ReplyDeleteyeah people should have protected you. I think you did the right thing though.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that your able to blog about it is really great and shows that your the better person. Great blog.
