Me Wanna Go Home

Sep 20, 2004 12:38

So I'm at work right now, I'm so bored. this is my lunch break and i'm in my office.If going to the break room means I'd have to sit and listen to the latest gossip, I'd rather sit in my office alone with the door closed. for some reason people here think I'm stuck up, I can tell you now I am far from it. Trust me I am the last person to put myself ( Read more... )

I know what you mean. I knew three different girls in high school that were like you in that they were black, but they didn't try to behave in a stereotypical black way. Two of them got gossiped about by the other black girls. The third one acted black around her black friends and white around her white friends, so she was able to bounce around easier. I think no matter what you look like, the point is that people want to hang around people that act like them. I think that if you acted according to the black stereotype, you might still have white friends, but maybe not the same ones because I'm guessing your current ones don't know much about Pdiddy and stuff like that. Anyway, it sucks no matter what because fitting in (or not) isn't easy.

My thing is that I don't try to fit in, I just want to be me and if thats not good enough for people then I deffinentaly don't want to spend my time with them. I don't want to be "cool" I'm perfectly fine with being "weird, a dork, a loser" thats who I am. and I will never change just because someone said I should be like them.

I am and have always been a very opened minded person. I have noticed the older I get that there are certain nationalities, and religious groups that are terrified of anything different. That scares me. what is so wrong with having your own mind? when did that become a crime.

I think you have a good attitude about it. I agree that a lot of people are a little too judgemental. Personally, I'm too critical of myself to judge other people most of the time. I like to assume that everyone is like me that way when I'm feeling self conscious. Like I tell myself, "No one cares about my fat as much as I do because everyone else is too worried about thier own fat." I know that's not completely true, but it helps.

Anyway, wanna go to this with me?

I am very similar in the sense that I am very judgemental about myself, almost too much. I'm a perfectionist but I usually do things wrong. and I get mad at myself for doing it wrong even though I've never done it before. maybe I'm just crazy.

I would love to go.
