Day 41: Little Things That Piss Me Off.

I would like to believe that I have the patience of a Buddha.

But behind my calm, serene, reserved exterior..

Is a crazy ass bitch ready to bust out.

(nah..not really...)

Unless I am really mad, like seriously mad, you can see it. 

I either cry, yell, curse, dance, 

(or all of the above)

But thats rare, usually I keep it to myself or really try to.

These are the little things that piss me off on a daily basis.

Commuting: Not going to lie, its annoying. I know that there are so many people that have the same commute (possibly even worse than I do) I even have a whole post dedicated to this. (Day 4 (Click Here!) But yes, as an architecture student, I wish I could live close to the studio.

Rising Metrocard Fare: yea. I don't think I need to explain this one..(It just went up another quarter...its 2.50$ now..I'm going to miss that extra quarter)

Waking up early when I don't need to. I don't care if you need to tell me about how awesome Miley Cyrus is, if you call me and wake me just to tell me that, I will kung-pow yo ass. You know who you are.

When people leave their food/garbage on my desk: I know i'm from Staten Island, but that doesn't mean that my desk is a dump for your shit. And if its been on there long enough for a fruit fly ecosystem to start developing, (its happened before) Imma put it back on your desk. I know its hard not having someone around to clean up after you, but its time to learn..bitches.

When a special ink pen runs out of ink as i'm drawing:

 People who walk slow/or stop suddenly in front of me: Maybe my anger is baseless, because people do need to walk on sidewalks. But thats just it, its for walking, not stopping and thats dangerous in New York. Some crazier mofo, whose having a worse commute or day than I, will probably bust yo ass. Just sayin. Ask yourself, if you really, REALLY need to take that photo of a funny looking tree. P.S: don't get all mad at me for bumping into you.

Rendering on Rhino/Working on a computer for more than 12 hours in a day: My eyesight has greatly degenerated over the years.

When my Ipod runs out of battery: I know its going to be a long day without my music. I can deal with my phone running out of battery..but..not this..

People that talk loudly on the phone when its not important/none of our business to hear: I can understand when people have to talk loudly on the phone because its an emergency and they can't hear eachother or for some other important business. But for all else, I really don't want to hear about how much gas you pass, etc.

People who use the elevator to get to the second floor: If your leg's not broken or you're not carrying a million pounds of stuff...take the stairs..please?

People who buy useless shit for their dogs: Ok, costumes are one thing, but designer clothes?? Fur coats???  what the heck?! 200$ dog bed?. Don't get me wrong, I love dogs, but...this is ridiculous. I think its pretty sad when you can feed a third world country with Fluffy's diamond studded collar.

People who are creepy happy/ fake happy to see you: You know the type. You try to get their attention from across the room. Make eye contact. But you can tell that they're clearly avoiding you and when you dash over, knocking over people and busting your knee/arm, they 

go..

Women who pee on the toilet seat and don't wipe it up: If you're 5 years old, sure. I'd understand, but if you're all grown up, clean up after yo'self, DAMN.

People who buy shit they can't afford in the first place: Seriously.

When my cell phone drops a call.

Twilight: I..I can't. If I start writing now, i'll never stop..

 The ratio of computers to students: We've got about, maybe 80-90 students on one floor and about 12 computers...around finals time, everyday is like a reenactment of "Lord of the Flies"

Black Ice: Every winter, this makes me walk like i'm crazier than usual.

Walking all the way to Utrecht or some other art store thats even farther, only to find that they don't have what I needed.

There's probably a lot more things I hate, but if I spend any more time thinking about things I hate, imma turn into She-Hulk

But what I hate most of all. Out of all of of this.

Is that I get actually get angry out of these stupid things.

I often forget, in the heat of the moment, that these things are really nothing to get so mad about.

I feel guilty that I hate so many things...that I really shouldn't hate at all.

I should be grateful that i'm able to go to school. Sure, its a struggle to commute everyday, but hey, I am sure, or I will make sure, that its going to make life seem a little easier later on.

I'm grateful that nothing horrible has happened to me or my friends/family. Because I know that if something ever did, I'd rather go through all of the things I hate, a million times over.

So what if the Starbucks barista messed up your order and forgot the damn cinnamon powder (btw, I hate Starbucks, not because they forgot my cinnamon powder on my mocha choca latta yaya..but yea, they're overpriced and all over the place..but thats a whole nothuh post) 

So what if you stepped in some dog shit.

So what if I have to wake up early for work, or stay later than usual. I'm happy that I have a job. 

So what if you lose a button on your favorite sweater.

Shit happens.

and life could be a lot worse.
