semester is over and we'll all be going home soon, i decided to make a list of the things i have found that i do not like about some people here. obviously this list doesn't reflect everyone, but ya know, some things about people around here bug me. for many, this doesn't apply to you. <br /><br />Things I don't like about some particular people here:<br /><br />1- you dont know where i'm from, so stop pretending like you know everything about me, my family and my life.<br /><br />2- yes, i'm from long island, but that doesn't mean i own my own boat, bmw, and mansion.<br /><br />3- self righteous people. get over yourself.<br /><br />4- people that lie about their life. other might believe you, but get a life. i'm not impressed and i can spot a liar from a mile away.<br /><br />5- just because you're a bio major, doesn't mean that you are smart. <br /><br />6- people who think they are smarter than me. i'm a presidential scholar mo fo. <br /> <br />7- okay. i dont and never had an alcohol problem. just because i enjoy my youth doesn't mean that i'm an alcoholic, should go to AA, or any other creative thing you got planned. you're just jealous so shut your mouth.<br /><br />8- long island isn't a town. just because people are from long island does not mean that they know each other, went to the same school, or are even from the same area. so no, i dont live close to your aunt that lives in montauk. get a map out and study it. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:sunnie4me:17131 2002-12-05T05:35:15Z 2002-12-05T05:35:15Z thanksgiving break was great. i have come to the conclusion that one word could describe it. refreshing. good came out of it and it was a well needed dose of what i needed. home. friends. normalness. yesyes. and now that i'm back at school, its like woa. i'm going back home so soon again. which is nice. but it'll be weird coming back here after a month off. but it's all good in the hood. i'll miss it. i loooooove siena. classes end on the 10th... my first exam is the 18th. that is a week of being here with nothing to do but sleep and study. hopefully i will get plenty of both. this weekend i gotta just tie up some loose ends in classes. a couple of extra credits papers to do. ya know. but after that it's just about studying and such.... urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:sunnie4me:16870 2002-11-24T19:36:51Z 2002-11-24T19:36:51Z this was a
