Hey there, it’s been awhile. I have alot to say but then I cannot seem to find the right place so I ended up here at my familiar place. Life in school has been like a nightmare. Probably worst than that but I cannot find the right word to describe…so nightmare it shall be.
Part one of nightmare is terrible.
I have been working with 5 other people for a business proposal. Although we work in a group, the marks are given individually. . As you know, there are different parts to be done in a proposal, such as executive summary, human resources, legislation, financial, marketing, operational design and things like that…And I did my part, in addition I covered some other parts due to the fact that this girl has been taking it rather slow and we all couldn’t just sit and wait for her part to be done…But when it was done by me from scratch, I sent to the group members for them to verify and to carry on from there. However, you would never expect that the girl actually took my work and touch up alittle maybe just added in a total of extra 20 words, and then sent it to the other members saying, “Here’s my part..” That act was not only disappointing, but also amusing. At that point of time when I saw my work being taken without shame, I would want to think its a big fat joke, but I couldn’t laugh. Because I spent alot of sleepless nights doing projects, I could not just let her take advantage of me. I held a meeting with the other members, telling them about the case and to check if they still have all the evidence that I was the one who did that part of the project. They all wanted to confront her, to kick her out of the group, to write an email to the tutor…In the end, I was the calm one. I msned her in hope that we could talk things out. I asked her why did she do that and throughout the conversation, she was flaring up at me, using rude phrases and still insisted that the part should be under her name. For awhile, I became soft hearted so I thought of plan B, which is to put both our names under that part. I tried all ways to keep my contribution and effort but she was still fucking angry. Having wasted so much time arguing, I just said, ” FINE! YOU TAKE IT AND DON”T BOTHER ME FOR NOW. I AM BUSY”. So she became happy…and I became the bad person as people start telling me that she cried for an hour over this. I cannot understand why. She took my part, the whole thing, and still cry over it? Well..well…then it was presentation day today. After the presentation, the tutor gave feedbacks and was super pleased with every content that she presented but fuck, I did it, not her… I know I shouldn’t be complaining because I gave it to her afterall. However…
Okay, moving on to part 2 of nightmare.
2 surface friends of mine told me that they argued over me. They were discussing about my height and were asking if I am taller than one of the girls we know. When I said I am shorter, they continued their discussion and Girl A said, “You see, I told u la! She so short, how can anyone be shorter?! YEA I WIN!”. And then how should I react then? I just smiled. I am always discussed for many wrong reasons.
Then next scene..Girl B and I was joking and then suddenly she said, “You short and fat la..HAHA”. And then I lost immediately… I didn’t know how to carry on our conversation. Always, when I joke with friends, I just need them to say that sentence and I could just shut up forever.
And then during lunch, Girl C was telling her friends about my breasts. She said, “Last night her breasts were so disgustingly big!” And she asked me, “Did you do anything to it?”. And she added on, “Your breasts were as big as mine when I was in Semester 2. I was so FAT in sem 2″. Then they carried on their discussion about my breasts.
So I know what they all meant. I am really ok when people tease me about my height. You can make many remarks about it. I know the fact and I know I have to accept it but it is different and difficult to take it like that. I face new ways of “tease” everyday. What’s new tomorrow?
I….have nothing else more to say.
p.s: I am sick of myself feeling this way, I really am and I am sorry.
