I just got back from something extremely stressful so i think i'll talk about that before i rant about some other things that happened during the week that made me want to kill someone.
So today was the day of a dance/parent-teacher conference. Our parents talked to our teachers and everything while the students danced. I hated it.
To be honest, I wasn't expecting to hate it. We used to have "dances" in 4th-6th grade, but they were really just "here, eat candy, kids. You can talk while you eat." So i kind of assumed the jr. High dances would be "Hi kids. Just stand around and talk while we pretend it's a dance."
Yeah i was completely wrong.
It was hot, it was way too loud (I didn't notice my ears ringing then but now they are.), it was crowded, and they weren't letting us leave unless it was to go to the bathroom. I tried hiding in the bathroom with a friend who was having the same problem but a teacher came in, glared at me, and said, "Are you two almost finished?" Or something like that, so I knew we wouldn't be able to stay very long.
We went back in and again were met with a giant crowd, way-too-loud music and screaming, and no where to get out of it, basically. We found a little hallway thing that was cooler and slightly less noisy, but it was next to the exit so a couple times we were just going to the corner and people yelled at us for trying to leave.
Also, there was another person there that my friend that i hid in the bathroom with wanted me to meet. It would've been like the only time, but to be honest, if i'm going to meet someone I always feel more comfortable if i have a night to think about what I'm going to say and today I had like two seconds and it panicked me for a bit. And i ended up being super awkward, but i would've been awkward either way so that's to be expected.
I'm not looking forward to doing that again whenever we have to (i don't know when).
NEXT RANT
This happened two days ago.
I was at cross country practice, not doing much, and then someone named Mason made up a word or something. My friend, who i think was already annoyed by him, said it wasn't one. They bickered over it for awhile and I tuned out of the comversation.
I quickly started listening again when I heard Mason say something like this:
"The reason you don't have a large vocabulary is because you're a woman! People will say that's sexist, but it's the truth!"
And I looked over at my friend, who had a shocked expression on her face. She stopped talking to them but I overheard two more offensive comments: a transphobic one, and a homophobic one. (Which i won't repeat because they were inappropriate "jokes" [he said them in a joking manner, but he was being serious at the same time.])
I'm too tired right now to rant but I'm sure y'all have full rants in your heads.
NEXT
I'm kind of stressed because my dad just informed me that me and my sister are the only ones in the whole county, maybe even more, that's doing both Spanish and french and I skipped a year of Spanish and I'm in a hard reading and math class and I'm just really anxious that I won't be able to do it. I've pretty much never had to study something for more than like ten minutes and then all of a sudden I'm studying something as simple as the french alphabet any time i get the chance. Plus I might be joining French Club, Scholastic Bowl, and track, plus I'm in cross country so that will take away from homework time so I'm kind of intimidated.
On a completely different note, I have my first XC meet on Saturday so wish me luck! I think our team will do really well this year.
Also, I still haven't gotten my phone back. I still won't be replying to very much. Sorry!
So how were your days? Did anything happen while I was gone?
