Is it just me or is that certain area of people so obnoxious?

A Rant About Rude and Entitled People

To the women who told my dad she was going to call the police because our grass was not trimmed to a certain length: Are you serious?

That's when rules go too far and people do not have morals anymore.

To that man who stared at me paused for a few moments and said "You have an aggressive dog, huh?": No, you are wrong.

She is not aggressive. He was giving me a dirty look and my dog, who is very smart, picked up on that. Dogs stare at each other and his dog was giving my dog bad vibes - hence her barking. Why are people in this neighborhood so rude and heartless? Are your homes in Florida getting boring? Or are you just a cold hearted individual. You see that I am young and vulnerable. You see that you can say anything hurtful to me because I will most likely not say anything back, right?

It is so much more than these comments, it shows what kind of people they truly are. Taking rules way too far does nothing but antagonize. Do they not realize that calling the police on someone because the grass is not cut to a certain length is irrational? That got me thinking: they only think about the rules.

Uh oh, the grass is not 1/2 inch (the way it is "supposed to be," so let's call the police! They are focused on getting people in trouble for weird things. Why? Why would you do that. Some people might say it is the rule, but that is a messed up rule?? It is not just about this instance in particular, but very similar things that if it is a rule, then you get in trouble!

It is not only these two comments that irked me. There have been so much more, but that could turn into a dissertation, because of how many there have been. The vibes every-time I drive by these people are ridiculous.

They are always in their circles with their strollers looking at me and talking amongst themselves about my family, it is pretty uncomfortable when I can tell they are talking about me. They are 30 something years old....c'mon why are you talking shit about a college kid?

I will never become a stay at home mom. Nothing wrong with stay at home moms, but these ones in particular are the worst. These unhappy individuals probably get so bored that they have to create drama with innocent people just to fill a void in their lives.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
