Haha, nooo. The East Coast has enough with the words "mad" and "tight." Although I like how apparently "Can you do me a favor" becomes "Can you do me a solid?" along with replacing other words like good and great and amazing with solid. xD
Oh boo, that doesn't sound fun at all. But I do love them Girl Scout Cookies. Samoas and Trefoils, mmmmmm.

Aww...I left Girl Scouts ages ago. For a while I felt bad, but then I remembered why I left. My troop was horrible and treated me either like I didn't exist or like I was 5 years old. It sucked.
And I'm aware of East Coast words. I love on the East Coast, too. Bwaha! If my friends can get "jelly" to go around, I bet I can get "solid" to.
'Cause, you know. It's just so solid.

Oh, no. Some Girl Scouts they were.
And hey! I use "jelly" all the time! It's especially appropriate when consuming anything jelly-like.

Hahaha I've never been able to get myself to use "jelly" as something other than my strawberry jelly that I still usually refer to as jam unless in response to "you jelly?" Dunno why. It just never appealed to me as much as other words.

I used jelly on one of my guy friends the other day and he was literally like o.O is that? Then he got it and snickered a little.
Girl Scouts are some of the weirdest people I've ever met. My mother is always blathering on about how sweet and kind girl scouts are and how she doesn't understand what I mean when I tell her it's not an organization I wanted anything to do with supporting because I didn't like their beliefs.
It's just...they're either peppy to a T, or they're bitchy and goody goody. Insane people, mostly.

They're absolutely crazy. In elementary school, a girl left because she wasn't Christian and the leaders made her feel like an outcast for it. I left because they assumed I was stupid and had no right to an opinion because I wanted to actually do things like go camping. My sister left after she got tired of being forced to knit in front of the fire instead of going outside to play, along with the leaders telling her our mother wasn't our mother and requiring a consent form from our dad for us to pick her up.

Once my friend and I were getting bubble tea in Chinatown (except I like to put rainbow jelly in mine instead of bubbles), and she said something that I was insanely jealous of. So I pointed at my drink and went, "So jelly! So jelly!" She cracked up, and that's when jelly started catching on for me.
I've never been in Girl Scouts, but the Girl Scouts I buy cookies off of seemed fairly nice? Then again, they weren't really dedicated to the whole scouting business, they just knew our school loved their cookies.
And wow, that sounds ridiculous...especially the whole mom thing with your sister.

Ugh.
I hated it. I was stuck in this troop with this biotch who went batshit insane on me for no reason, and hated me. We hadn't spoken for years and my mom put me in the same friggin' girl scout troop as her and then wonders why I wouldn't be friends with her, her other friend, or the girls who were 5 years younger than me.
I also remember going to do camp counselor crap (I was just over 17) and a fourteen year old comes up to me and goes..."you know, you're the most immature girl out of all of us here," me being compared to a bunch of 12-14 year olds. Excuse me? No. That would be you, who is an ass, who acts too old for her age, and thinks she's hot shit. >.> I was being a camp counselor to a bunch of girls who were 8 and under. Of course I wasn't going to act like the silent mature type I usually am.
Sorry. End rant. Lol.

Haha, it sounds like you were in some terrible situations. I worked as a TA over the summer last year and oh my god it was the worst decision ever. I was in charge of the seventh graders, and they acted all high and mighty because they were the oldest in the program. And all the boys were like WWE fans so they went around acting all immature but thinking they were cool cause they watched wrestling and stuff.
By the way, I love how you use the word batshit, hehe.

HAha, it comes out when I'm angry about something, lol. I'm quite the fan of that word...and I added anal retentive to my repertoire a few months ago, too. :XD They make me laugh, and thus make me less PO'd.
I can't deny it. I really hated those situations, so I'm not going to defend them this time, lol.
Gawd. Middle school boys. They can all go spike themselves on a pole and I won't shed a tear. Worst lot of manflesh roaming the earth, them.

I worked as a counselor/instructor for summer camp at my martial arts school. The oldest one was the most chill there. The 7 year olds, however... one managed to slam the door so hard that he sent it through the frame for an unsuspecting victim to peel the hinges out of the wall.
Oh ya. And a couple slightly younger newcomers were pathological liars and felt it necessary to try to convince their mother that we should all be fired for abusing them because they didn't want to do pushups.

Couldn't have said it any better myself (like actually, I couldn't have).
LOL at the martial arts newcomers. But I can't do push-ups either, so I won't say anything more. I'm so unathletic.

Lol. Thank you, thank you. I have a real dislike for them, so come to me if you need them insulted. ;)
I can't do push ups, or pull ups...never have been able to. I'm going on a pretty strict yoga regimen here in the next month, though, once my classes start, so hopefully I'll build up some strength.
Those people were still horrible, though.
I have a friend who was (and still kinda is at points) a pathological liar. It took me a couple of years to figure it out. I mean, sure, she's had a crazy life...but when she started claiming that my hotel room was haunted by a murderous fairy king from the Unseelie Court...well...eyebrows were raised. Haha. Before you ask. Yes. She was completely serious. >.>
I didn't figure out she was a pathological liar until then and I realized she'd been lying about normal things, too.

haha I couldn't to begin with, either. But they threw full on tantrums at us because we expected them to participate in classes when that's what their mother had signed them up for. And then they'd throw more fits when we wouldn't give them their belt without doing any work. Honestly, getting your white belt isn't that tough. You do maybe 3-5 semi-decent pushups, show us your best attempt at a punch and kick and break a board that's about as thin as a piece of paper. It's more so that the kids can feel accomplished about something.
Point is, they hadn't even acquired enough classes to get their belt because they refused to do anything besides sit and talk back to us. Then one developed a rash and told their mother I had given it to him. And then after I had to send them to time out for something, and I had a full on completely comprehensive discussion with them to which they agreed that they would at least try to do some push ups if we did them together, they went home and told their mother a completely different story.
They were then removed from the school, either by their mother or the master instructor. I'm not sure. But they were brats and I'm sorry they felt the need to use those means to get attention from their mother.

@Ely: You'll definitely be my go-to if I end up working with seventh graders again this summer. Ugh, not looking forward to finding a summer job since my scholarship failed to work out in my favor.
@Starr: I didn't even know you had to do stuff for a white belt (although it doesn't sound hard, minus the push-ups). The kids were obviously troublemaking brats, and good riddance to them leaving the school.

Ox: It depends on the school. When I joined, you only had to attend 3 classes. We added a little more, though, because kids and their parents like when they've done something and been rewarded for it. We also don't want to encourage children and parents into thinking that belts are just bought. You earn them through time, patience and hard work. We also do things like give kids gold stars for every A on their report card. There's one kid whose uniform is almost covered in them. 0.o

Kids. I'd say "these days" but I think kids have always been horrible.
I'm not much of a motherly person...I'm also discovering that I'm really bad at comforting people. I've had to do a lot on my own, and pull courage, bravery, and honor out of myself without having anybody to show me how to do it...so I'm pretty much "do it your own damned self, and honestly...this crud that you're telling me isn't that bad of stuff. You'll live."
@Ox: Haha. Try talking to them about sex and dating and trying to get them to be serious (I was a pro-abstinence mentor for a time). I also hated middle school, lol.
I have to get a job, too. I'm looking forward to it...and I'm not...I don't really want to go out and have to deal with new people again. It's mentally exhausting to me, and I know I'm going to get a couple of boys poking about me...and I've lost quite a bit of trust in boys due to my ex. I don't want to get heartbroken, but I also want to search for a new boyfriend. So I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Oh my goodness, that's definitely gotta be the worst. They're still in that prepubescent phase where they're not mature enough to say sex without giggling like maniacs. I took sex education in 8th grade, and it was legit the worst. We had to put condoms on bananas one day, and this one smartass decided to bring in a humongous cucumber instead.
And aww, I'm sorry about your ex. But if you never throw yourself back into the dating pool again, you won't ever be able to find that one guy who'll treat you the way you deserve to be treated.

Bahahahaha!!!! We never did the banana thing, lol. But I've heard that story from so many people, so my middle school must just have been lame.
Well. Honestly. He treated me like a princess and he was a sweetheart. My faith hasn't been lost in my ability to find a wonderful guy...it's been lost in me being able to find one who's willing to stay with me, you know? Being able to find one who will make me talk to him and poke me when I get a little insecure and afraid and withdraw a little. Somebody who isn't afraid to go through my insecurities, as well as his.
I just don't want to find another guy that I want to spend my life with only to lose him and feel completely alone again.

Awww~ I'm sure you'll find someone for you. I think we should live everyday thinking positive and hoping for the best because otherwise, we'd just be living a sad life. Imagine going through each day not believing that the person you're meant to be with is right around the corner--it'd be so bleak.
And this is the hopeless romantic in me talking again xD

Trust me, it's bleak. Lol. I've been in that position a couple of time now, but I always come out of it. I'd just rather not go back into it again if I can at all help it. :yes:
That is a good way of looking at things, actually. I think I'll keep that in mind now.
Anyway, I forgot to mention that the best thing in my 8th grade sex class was when the teacher split the boys and the girls up, took the boys to the gym, kept us girls in the classroom, and separately showed us a video of a live birth. The girls were like "meh" but when the boys returned they looked like they'd seen death himself. :XD Still love that.

lol way to describe my life. Though, honestly, I just don't believe 'love' is meant for me. Even if it found me, I'd probably abuse it until it died. >.>
I don't really find my life to be bleak, though. I mean, ya. Right now I feel like total crap. But overall it's not bad.

Haha Starr, I'm sure love can take your abusing. I'm a ridiculous romantic, so the things I say sometimes may not be "probable," but it does make life a lot more livable.

Love tends to heal all. I've learned that. I don't doubt you'll find somebody, Starr. :)
I'm interested to see who I fall in love with next...I'm really interested, in fact. I am my best me when I am in love with somebody...when I am living my life for somebody else instead of myself. Bettering myself so that I can be my best for someone...not just because I want to. I love it more than I can describe.
Right now it's my friends that are healing my heart. Who are giving me my reason to improve and love again. I am nothing without other people in my life. It took me a long while to figure that out.
