september birthday blues

i meant to post this on may 8, 4 months til my birthday. september birthdays are the worst because it's the exact time that people usually start new jobs, classes, living situations, and around a new slue of people. so when i meet people in aug/sept, i don't want to say, "my name is sarah and my birthday is next week." so my birthday always ends up being with a small group of people. and to be quite honest, i like surprises, but people don't know me enough in september to throw me a surprise party or do something fun like that. oh well. thanks mom and dad for celebrating new year's.

can't stand this!!

people in a grocery store at the self check out: i was waiting in line, the one line that is formed so that the next person in line gets the next available self checkout station. then a guy and a girl, stroll up to a guy who is about to finish at his self checkout station and go ahead of me. rude. totally oblivious to what i was doing standing in the middle of the 2 stations.

when i buy something at the store and come home to find out that i already had an extra one at home. it always happens to me with shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, etc. rr

impressing people

it's exhausting trying to impress people. i'm doing an internship to impress my colleagues and professors in my major. i have a catering job to impress people with the great pay and easy work load. i sing in church to impress people with my ability to sing. i dress nice to impress boys so they'll like me and for girls to get them to like me too. and i think that after college i won't have to anymore. not true. it's a little tougher now cause, at least for me, i have many opportunities that i want to be able to do all of them so that i can have options in my future. once i find a career after college, i'll only have to impress my boss and other married couples at church. but who knows when i'll be married. i want to be myself, but a lot of people wouldn't like me. it's the natural man that gets to me. being a good person is hard work. i kinda hate it. BUT, i know that it's worth it. ah!
