So, it has been quite awhile, really, it seems.

I have some things to say. and kind of some new year's resolutions.

New Year's resolutions: Be stronger. Not really physically, because I don't care. Rather, be mentally stronger. Braver. Have the ability to state your opinions without hesitation. If I think people are acting inappropriately, in anyway, why should I tolerate it? Honestly. If it affects me, and it can totally make things awkward, uncomfortable, and generally bad.

Things to say, kinda along the same wavelength:

1. Why are people so mean? It really gets to me. Like really, really upsets me. No one, and I mean NO ONE deserves someone being mean to them, no one. There are more peaceful and effective ways of doing something than being cruel and mean to them, either to their face or behind their back.

2. Why are people so close-minded? Not all the time, but everyone is sometimes, myself very much included. It is very frustrating that these rifts form between groups that cause people to take part in number 1 (above). Example. I don't hang out with Kevin Nordle anymore. Because I don't like certain things he does. He's not mean to me, and I'm not mean to him. We sat down today and had a peaceful and civilized (fairly) conversation. It's no big deal. There is a rift between us, but we're not freaking out and taking sides and being bitches. That's my example.

3. Why must everything be so freaking Dramatic? Maybe I just don't understand it. Maybe I'm insensitive. But honestly, all this Drama that we complain about is based on the two previous points above. It is a cycle that is unnecessary, unlike the nitrogen cycle. If you're mean and split into close-minded groups that attack others, more verbally than anything else, you are gonna have drama. Let me just set this record straight. DRAMA IS STUPID. AND IT IS BASED ON YOUR OWN ACTIONS. I guess I believe in karma in this sense, but more so in a logical way. If you are a bitch, then someone is gonna be a bitch back to you. That's just the way it goes. Either get over it and don't act so surprised, or stop being mean, behind people's backs or otherwise.

Now, I know what's gonna happen. People will read this and think that it is based on recent events. In fact, this has been building up in me for awhile, and this was an appropriate enough time to voice my opinions. Maybe it's easier behind the mask of this computer screen, where I can organize my thoughts, and not be criticized point by point. But regardless, I know what's gonna happen. People will get mad, and there will be Drama. Because I'm being mean? Probably. I'm not free of this anymore than any of you are. I just feel like I'm more aware of it (and maybe a bit more pretentious!). So fine, let the Drama come. But just let me tell you, don't complain when the Drama comes back your way.

I feel eloquent, but feel free to attack this. If I'm wrong, tell me, and I will listen, and maybe even agree with you. No promises though, I'm not perfect.
