You're Pathetic.

You're pathetic for thinking you're pathetic.

I would be willing to bet that every one of us has at some point been called pathetic or worthless or a waste of time, but it's how we used those words to grow as a person that actually makes the difference.

I've been told several times in my lifetime that I have no idea what it's like to go through struggles and to suffer because my life is incredibly blessed and relatively easy. If you haven't read my testimony, I'll link it here. The point is that even if a person's life looks like it's easy, that doesn't mean that it is actually is. Appearances are deceiving 100% of the time.


With that being said, you're pathetic.

You're pathetic for letting your circumstances define you.

You're pathetic for letting your own self confidence fall because of something someone said.

You're pathetic for not standing up for yourself.

You're pathetic for not following your dreams.

You're pathetic for believing other's opinions of you.

You're pathetic for letting others definite you.

You're pathetic for letting yourself be walked on.

You're pathetic for walking on other people.

You're pathetic for letting yourself slip away.

You're pathetic for becoming the person you're not.

You're pathetic for your constant whining when your situation is your own fault.

You're pathetic for pushing everyone away who tries to help you.

You're pathetic for not listening to the best advice you will ever receive.

You're pathetic for being shut inside your own head 24/7.

You're pathetic for thinking you're pathetic.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
