I get intimidated easily; I would be quick to judge other people. The beautiful kids in high school used to piss me off. Why are they so easily accepted? Is it the money? Is it the clothes they wore? Is it their parents’ popularity? Why are they so evil to the other kids? I would even hate it when they are ACTUALLY nice to others? Are they just doing it for fame’s sake? Are they just trying to act all prepped up?
I was wrong all along. So, I hope this blog entry would somehow make you think, better you agree but it’s cool to disagree with my concepts.
There is no such thing as a cool person or not a cool person on earth. There IS a good person and a bad person and you’d be surprised how bad people could be those ‘so called’ losers as well as those ‘so called’ school jocks. So, if you are a mother of two who are still bitter about you getting a wedgie in the girls’ toilet by the head of the cheerleader, you might want to put that in the past and ACTUALLY educate your kids for a better future. If you’re a ‘loser in progress’, don’t get yourself down… you’re not and don’t be afraid to learn more about life as opposed to pleasing yourself with xbox360 in your own room. If you’re a school jock who thinks he’s reached the peak in life, just you wait for the day your dad goes bankrupt.
So, what made me say this? I have a colleague in my office, who’s DYING to perform on this special event. I offered to help her out. I have reminded her to go for rehearsals whenever she could and I would have to be free for those as well. Tact wasn’t in her ‘strength’ department and it was just so hard dealing with her.
1. TactlessGirl was excited about this and chose three songs. Good! She heard that Maltesers (another one of our colleague) was singing too. She started to worry a bit going ‘what if my songs are not good.. the others’ songs are going to be great.’ BEEEPP!!! BAD! Despite the fact that I do not really appreciate Maltesers’ presence around as much, I do have to admit she is a GREAT singer. But that’s NO EXCUSE to go compare. I know TactlessGirl does NOT mean to compete but why fret? It’s a fucking UN event!! Not an idol show!
2. She found out that we were only given five minutes for the performance. She had picked three songs before, to which I was to play guitar to. Good! However, she refused to lessen the number of songs she would be singing, chucked a tantrum and claimed she would sing three songs. BEEEP!! BAD! I told her I don’t care but I’m getting off the stage after five minutes. It’s a ‘get together’ event, NOT A WORLD TOUR!!!!
3. I asked her one day to come around 5pm, to which I hope she would understand about my English class starting at 5:30pm. She showed up at 5:25pm, ignored my other colleagues and just kept picking songs to sing. BAD!! VERY BADDD!!!
4. We were busy at work yesterday and TactlessGirl came into the office room, started singing while my other colleagues were working. I had to pull her away to the meeting room to just have her sing there. GOD!!!
5. She came in today to our small ‘not really disaster risk reducing’ room and placed her guitar there. Seriously, thanks for crowding our place.
I was so annoyed at her but then I thought back to what the actual cause of this weird ass tactless behavior that she’s been chucking. Was I being too weird to not be too excited as she is to sing in this event? Am I finding this normal just because I’ve had albums and sang live on stage before? What if I was her? Would I be annoying some professional singer and chucking guitar in his/her room?
I guess it’s the fact that we all sometimes lose ground. Nope, I don’t mean we become arrogant pricks but somehow we don’t find the ridiculously little things in life not as amusing as before.
So, putting this in my ‘been there done that’ theory, I would seem like the cool person in the whole higher hierarchical part of the ‘been there done that’ chart and she would be in the lower part, just begging to get out there. How was I like before I became a singer? Well, I learned. It is a pain in the ass to be told you’re wrong but god, you gotta be READY with what’s wrong and right about you and if you could BECOME that “Right” person in order to achieve the ‘cool’ award.
I hope TactlessGirl finds out that life is not all about singing three songs in a UN event. The event is for us to bond and have fun. Yes, it’s true I can sing anywhere I want and I sing as my career choice but that is not the reason I find her annoying to be such a bit of a prick at work. All I’m asking her is for some tactfulness.
I’m not excited for this event and I feel like I have to focus on giving time to my friends NOT during office hours. I do love some of my colleagues but god, I’m dying to not be hanging out with some of them, who, to me, are just ridiculously quite immature. It’s an office, people! You have a life after you go home! And as much as I’d love to play God to a lot of people out there who needs some kick in the butt for being on ground, I do need time to spend with those who needs to kick ME in the butt.
There’s always something to learn out there. As cool of a celebrity as I can be, I still have yet to learn from those who have made it big. Life is like a case of stairs, only endless.
