It is my bed time :|
I’m beginning to wonder who begged me to do this 30 day challenge… it’s now like homework lol. This will be short since I need to get up at 6am for the first day of my internship at the Institute of Economic Affairs. Yaaay. I love 6am.
1. Club shenanigans
I’ve always known this one annoyed me, but it became even clearer to me last night. I hate being abused in the club. I know it’s an inevitable part of being in an enclosed area with lots of people at varying stages of sobriety BUT it just still annoys me :-/ I think the worst is the inconsiderate man, who because he has a big booty in his face, decides that both he and his girl will pretend you are part of the furniture. The most annoying part is that they will actually shove against you on beat, as the song plays. Last night there was this amazon behind me. Ol’ girl was about 6 ft 1 in flats, I kid you not. I had on flats too, for once, because I went to the club on a whim after seeing HP7. I am 5 foot 2 (or 3) inches. You should be able to clearly imagine that with the two of us standing back to back, her ass was somewhere around my upper back/shoulder area. And lawd, was that ass active. She was doing various things with the ass, which resulted in a shove on my back each time she gyrated. I could not deal. Throw in waiters with trays that bump you on the elbow every time they pass, and rude, drunk men who spill Jack Daniels on your suede heels… and you have a travesty. I get a tad upset just thinking about it.
2. Gum popping/Loud chewing
This is my number one, all-time biggest pet peeve. I cannot stand it when people pop their gum. Smacking, chomping on food… anything like that. I’ll be the one to tell you about yourself. I sat next to some lady that did that through an 8-hr flight and I thought I would lose my mind. I was so focused on it that I could still hear her through my headphones. I really had to focus on letting go of my irritation and allowing the sound to blend in with the ambient noises. If I give a friend a stick of gum and they put me through this mental torture, you already know who’s never sharing their pack of gum with you ever again lol.
3. Certain phrases
“Are you sure?” - This one gets to me for no good reason. I just dislike being asked that. “I hear you.”- Okay.. I’m sure you do. Also noteworthy is the text message that has one word; the most annoying being: “No, K, and Idk”. Seriously, a blank text is better than those shits.
4. Waiting
I’m not very good at it :/ Especially when I don’t have an idea how long it will be for. I don’t want to be made to wait indefinitely… makes me feel disabled. I’d like to be able to make plans and do something with the time while I wait for you for whatever reason. Don’t just say I’ll let you know and then call me 5 minutes before you need me. Respect my time and let me know when you’ll be available.
5. I don’t have a fifth.. and I’m very sleepy. For the 5th slot I’ll just mention a few that didn’t quite make the list… Unnecessary and unwelcome touching, slapping, trying to crack my knuckles or pinch me etc, bashing a style or idea and then copying it later, refuting claims/arguments with half-assed examples; for instance “No, people from California don’t like the dougie, I have a cousin that lives there and he said he doesn’t”, & being rude and inconsiderate of the community and people that have to be in close contact with you by not maintaining a satisfactory state of bodily cleanliness and hygiene.
