Just a Headshot

Postby Zemyna » Wed Oct 07, 2009 2:28 pm

You don't mind if I rant to you for a second, do you? Yeahthanks.

So. Today's my birthday. (10/6) So... I wake up, I realise it's my birthday, but since I'm shy, and I kind of told everyone in the house the DAY BEFORE... I don't mention it, really. So. I go to school. My brother doesn't mention anything on the walk to school, neither do my mom or dad when seeing me off.

You know, the first person to wish me a happy birthday was a random old lady that I never even TALKED TO BEFORE, LET ALONE, HAD I TOLD IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY... I don't know. At that point, I was mainly happy to... I dunno. Exist.

And then my FRIENDS REMEMBERED, and even the ones that find me immeasurably annoying said happy birthday to me.

My whole tech class- most of which didn't know me, said happy birthday to me.


And I dunno... maybe I'm being completely spoiled and I deserve to be shot or something for thinking this, but... With all of these people, most of which I didn't really ask to have been told happy birthday to... couldn't my mom, and dad, and brother do a little better? It's like... a slap in the face. Way to convince me you all don't give a care, thanks for making this one of the worst day in my life.

Even when one of my best friends- who knew me well enough to notice when I was really hurt over something- told my brother that he should say Happy Birthday to me.... Nothing. Not a peep. Which means that he either REALLY didn't care, or he managed to NOT listen to my friend and not catch any of what he was saying.

And you know? Even when I get home from school- on the walk home from school, even. Not another peep. In fact, so far, NOBODY seems to have realised at all that it's my birthday, and you know what? When I go on the computer, and talk to my friends- many of which have not even seen what I look like, and have conversed with me via CHARACTERS ON A KEYBOARD.... They wish me a happy birthday.

This all makes me feel dually like Crap, and touched. Becacuse apparently none of my family can remember me enough to day two dang words, and the people who remembered- and even the people who didn't, but automatically said it once it was pointed out to them... I'm severely touched by.


Maybe I'm just being ungrateful, or expecting too much. Maybe... I don't know, my parents and my brother were all having something else on their mind- something big enough to just make them magically forget.

Maybe I deserve to die for just wallowing in misery and focusing on the negative... But I've never felt so rejected in my life. My whole family seemed to notice me LESS, rather than more on my birthday.

I don't know, again. I'm probably just some spoiled brat throwing a mini-tantrum for no reason whatsoever....

-sigh-

Anyways, I hope you all had a better day than I did.
heyyyyyy

Awww that really too bad. Maybe they have a surprise for you? If not you can be totally mad at them for that (By the way Happy Birthday) I had a Birthday where no one remembered at all so that totally sucked. The only person that said it to me was my PE teacher cause I statred to cry (<Like the baby I am ;) (jk))

Sadly, I can't relate. D: I'm not very shy at all and I try telling everyone when it's my birthday and I'm like "You better get me something missy. >_> I got something for you. *coughkeychaincough*" and that always works out well. c:

HOWEVER, happy birthday to you,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU,
happy birthday dear smexxy Zexi~,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. :3

Anyway, I bet your whole family remembered and now you're celebrating it at some fancy place eating cake and whatnot. If not... I'm so going to give you a CS birthday.
