I started a live journal.. Big deal. Don't get me wrong, I'm not depressed about it, just doesn't seem like a highlight in my life ^_^.
Anywho, Katie and I had a big talk the other night about 2005 Silverleaf Renfaire. She told me about how everyone seems to think that I don't follow orders or take direction well. I feel that this is the product of multiple things.
One, is that everyone likes to have some kind of dirt on someone else so they can bitch and complain with others. In this angle, I just don't give a flying **** if people bitch about me. They only see one side to the story and like the news media they blow everything out of proportion.
Two, is exactly the end of number one. People blew everything out of proportion after hearing one side of the story. Everyone said, behind my back mind you, that I am horrible at taking direction. WHAT EFFING DIRECTION ARE YOU PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT!!! The only direction I HAD to take was from the director. The rest were a bunch of suggestions. Not to say that they weren't good suggestions or that I just blew off things without trying any of them because I did try.
One of the main issues I saw that sparked problem number two was the fight between Katie and I. We had a lot of communication issues because someone thinks my way of explaining things is to drive you into the ground and make you feel like a child. That is untrue. The way I explain things is in a very simple manner because I don't want people to miss any details. If you people really want to think I am trying to be an asshole, and try to think that I am not trying to be of some kind of help then you need to check yourself to see who the real asshole is.
Now, I am not blaming Katie for the fight sucking. I am blaming BOTH OF US!!! There was a total lack of understanding on BOTH sides, not just mine and not just hers. We are beginners and shit like this happens. We have also worked out a lot of kinks on our communication issues for fights and the like.
It's really quite hilarious that the only time Katie and I have major disagreements is when we were talking about our fight.
Anywho, everyone has a problem with me and how I "Don't take direction" and how I "Blame everything on other people." So ya know what, confront me about it. Ask me why WE had problems last year at SLRF. And don't just sit there thinking it is just a bunch of excuses for bossing the one I truly love and would do anything for. Shit, I even offered to change the way I communicate just so we wouldn't have any negative time between us. Think that one through.
Damnit... Koi is wonderful when people aren't being a bunch of fucking stupid sheep.
P.S. Ryan, I apologize for going to far with your mistakes. It was funny when you bounced off the ground but we should try to help you instead of make fun of you.
I thought we were a family.
