*TO MY DEAR PARENTS
I know that I spend all my free time using my phone
Snapchatting, Whatsapping and IM’ing my friends. I know that I procrastinate
like it’s my job and I do know that I tend to lose focus, it rarely happens though...who
am I kidding I get distracted when I smell food. I listen to music 24/7 and I
always have my phone with me. You only walk in on me when I’m taking a little
break from studying and then you accuse me of not touching my books! Then you
proceed to tell me that I’m ruining my life by not studying and that I am never
going to get into college, how I am going to be homeless and unemployed and
regretting the very day I “supposedly” didn’t study. Sheesh! (Don’t act like
you don’t do this to me Ma!). Dear parents, my grades are alright and I’m doing
well in school! I am not going to drop out, move to Italy and sell my artwork
on the street, though that sounds like a great idea! I promise I won’t do
that…uhh can I do it if I take you guys along?
Just because I don’t talk a lot doesn’t mean that I’m
automatically anti-social. Okay maybe I am, just a teeny bit. Anyway, I listen.
I listen way more than I talk. So parents, thank you for being the most
understanding people ever. It’s going to be alright! Trust me. Okay I’m going
to go pack for Italy now.
*TO MY TEACHERS.
Dear teachers, I know that sometimes my work isn’t up to the
mark and you think I’m not trying hard enough. I know that going from class to
class, facing loud, annoying children frustrates you. i need you to know that I
do try and I work as hard as I can. I want you to know that I am not making fun
of you, nor am I snickering behind your back. I am not one of those people. Sometimes
I lose focus because to be honest, I do not care about how to improve crop
yield neither do I care about the structure of the atmosphere. The truth is
that I would rather be drawing or writing or something, I would, if I could,
but I can’t, so I shan’t. ( if you recognize that reference, you are amazing!)
Yes sir, I know I should learn from my sister..Yes ma’am, I
know that I should aim to be as amazing as her. Stop comparing me to my
sibling! We are two different people, I will never be her! Just like she will
never be me. I realize that you want what’s best for me, just let me be me! I
may even surprise you. I am seriously very grateful to all the teachers who
have taken their time to teach me everything that I know today. But please stop
telling me that I’m ruining my life! please, I have my parents to do that for
me! (just kidding) So basically, relax! I am not throwing my life away.
*HATERS
You hate me? Well okay, grab a chair and wait for me to
care.
*GRANDPARENTS
<3
I do not know what I want to do with my life! I haven’t
figured it out yet. So please stop asking me! When you do ask me, I suddenly
have to re-evaluate every life choice I have ever made, and I finally sigh and
say;
“What is my life..”
Also, you have to stop telling me that I’m fat. I’m not
weight conscious or anything, I’m just saying that after you stuff so much Biriyani
and chicken curry down my throat, you cannot tell me that I’m fat. That’s
unfair. Besides when I say that I’m full and that I’ve had enough food, you
just give me that “look”. Oh and it’s okay if I look a little darker than I
used to! It means that I have been outside, being active… It’s not the end of
the world!
I know that I spend way more time indoors than I once used
to. I have no explanation for that one actually, it’s just very very hot. But it’s
okay, I promise I’ll go outside next time I visit! Or…maybe not.
*PEOPLE I MEET AT
WEDDINGS AND FAMILY FUNCTIONS
Yes, I know that I am tall. Yes, I’m aware that I am the
younger one. Please stop stating the obvious. Earlier when I was younger, I used
to despise moments when my parents would introduce us (my sister and I) to someone’s
sister’s, son’s, younger daughter’s best friend. I would just grin at them
waiting for them to go away. Then this would happen;
“Hello! I am your grandfather’s
cousin’s classmate! Do you remember me? I had come to your house many years ago
when you were about this (indicates my size with hands) small”
*This is the part where I awkwardly smile and tell the person
that I know them.
“You know me? Hmm…then
tell me my name!”
*LIKE WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!! I have no clue who you are and
this is going to make me look stupid! What have I ever done to you to deserve
this! Whyyyyyy……whyyyyy!!! Keep in mind that as I smile and laugh, in my head, I
have figured out a hundred different ways to kill you.
Then I just l look at my parents, mentally begging them to
change the topic. UGHH. Why does this always happen -_-
One thing I can do at all these social gatherings is, find
all the food and eat all the food. I’m cool that way.
Okay. Finally done! That was definitely a rant. A long one
too. So that’s exactly everything that goes on in my head!
Later.
