I like to write, and I like to read. Why do so many people have a problem with this?! It's not like I'm hurting them by doing it, and it's not like I'm trying to force it on them. As long as they leave me be, I'll leave them be. But no, they have to start something. So then (even though I know I shouldn't) I have to reply, which means I end up having a conversation with them. And I actually hate them. Why can't people just leave me alone when I have made it perfectly clear that I don't like them, and they have made it more than perfectly clear that they don't like me. Speaking of which, why do people see the point in constantly talking about people behind their backs, and making up stupid rumors about them It makes no sense, if you don't like someone, why would you want to talk about them? Maybe if people stopped caring as much what other people think of them, everyone's lives would be so much simpler. Why do people seem to care what people think about them? I couldn't care less, yet I am the most talked about person in my school of nearly 900 people. I'm not even the nastiest person in my year, yet rather than shun the people who talk about everyone, and constantly spread rumors about people, they shun the people they are talking about. Because the people who deserve to be shunnned are too well-liked by the other people, and they all afraid that if they start ignoring that person, they themselves will be ignored by everyone else. God, I hate school. All the drama for what? A few grades that will get a job, so you can deal with new drama on a daily basis. That is why I want to become an author. That way I won't have to deal with people all that much, and I have a perfect excuse to hole up in my room with a pen and some paper, and not emerge for hours, having written maybe a page. That is the best life in the world. Or at least that is the way it seems to me. It is probably really hard work, and I am fiding all the reasearch hard to do. It's worth it thought.
