OK so today it dawned on me. My sister is brilliant. She is like...I dunno...One of those beautiful people you always hear about but never meet. My sister is one of them. She is driven and smart and cool and funny and bloody brilliant. Today I helped at an ISHA show. I love helping at horse shows.IT is perhaps one of the best things in the world to me. I love horses and being around them and being around horse people. I love showing or not showing. I love just holding horses and watching other people show. I guess, duh...I just love horses in general. So I was thinking about it today....Somewhere inbetween warming up my 12th horse and cleaning bridles....somewhere in there I realized. I'm not brilliant. At first I was kind of bothered by it. It hurt me a little bit. stung a little, whatever. I don't get the major honors....I don't get to do all the cool "special student" programs(Fuck GHP). I'm a good writer. Very good. I just don't have a wonderful flowing way of writing like my sister who is gifted like a mofo on ice. And thinking about that sucked for a little...And then WHile I was holding Timmy and telling him how wonderful he was and how much I loved him I realized...It doesn't bother me anymore. I still feel a pang when other people get special honors or whatever...but who wouldn't. I'm not saying I think I'm stupid or anything...Just not like one of those really gifted people who get everything. Who are well rounded. I'm not well rounded. I can't do math to save my life. I had to get a special ED thing to say that I could have extra time on the SAT because of "test anxiety" but all it's really for is so I have time to do the stupid math. I was 10th pecentile in the math last time I took it. I was 98th % in linguistics or whatever. I can't spell. I have bad grammar (er) whatever. I would rather just be around horses all day and have no money then keep trying to pretend I'm something more special then I am. People can make fun of me not being the smartest thing since god but I really don't care anymore. I'm not saying I'm giving up or anything..I just realized that I'm not that great. I'm one of those people who is smart, but not legendary. Then I realized it was because I'm lazy. I really don't ahve the drive inside saying LEARN EVERYTHING YOU CAN BEFORE IT IS GONE! I love learning and doing new things...but I also Like to sit at home and read People(read anything) and I know so much about POP CULTURE that it isn't even funny. I can identify movies within 5 seconds of seeing them on a screen, same with actors and other famous people. i'm just tired of trying to be something I'm not. I'm not that interested in being anything but a person who backpacks and stays around the barn and shows. I want to marry someone with money so I can have horses and show...*shrugs* I want to go to a good college...berry or mt holyoke...I want to get a cool degree and do cool things. Most of the things I want to do aren't related to any sort of job at all. I want to go overseas and help people. I want to show and ride and be fucking good at it. I want to make music videos and photograph models...I want to pick models and be an archeaologist. I want to do vet med. I want to live in a tiny house that's probably dirty where none of the furniture matches and you probably can't see it anyway because the dogs are sleeping on it.
Most of you will write this off as a cheesy never going to happen rant. But honestly...I really don't care.
