Two entries in one day?! Mark it down.
Okay so I know some of you have different beliefs than I do, and many of those beliefs clash. I am sorry that we don't agree, but that is what makes the world interesting. Today at my Youth Leg meeting I learned how prejudiced people really are. Since I am an officer, I was chairing one of the rooms and teaching the other delegates how to write and debate bills. I was partnered with a guy from CBHS named Kyle who I had never met, but he was pretty cool and we worked well together. Since he was from CBHS, most of the other guys who were there from that school came to our room. Kyle warned me that these guys would likely be a problem, and boy he could not have been more write. They goofed around, talked on their cell phones, threw things at each other and us, talked, and were pretty much just completely disrespectful. Kyle and I had quite a hard job keeping these guys under control. I suppose I was the one who mainly kept trying to get them to stop until finally I sat in the back of the room on a desk next to one of the guys to see if that would at all deter them. After a bit, I left for a short while to go to the restroom and I left the papers I was using on my desk. Apparently while I was gone, one of them took my papers and wrote an anti-Semitic note on it. When I got back, I picked up my papers and went back to the front of the room and saw the note. I was very hurt and got quiet for a while, but I didn't want whoever wrote it to see that they had effected me so I just acted as though I hadn't seen it. But yeah, I still feel like crap right now. Why must people be so disrespectful? I mean, I wasn't doing anything except for my job. And seriously, what does religion have to do with YL training anyway? But I have been on the verge of angry and hurt tears all night and I can't seem to cry. I wanted to see if getting it out into words would help any, but it hasn't.
