A few days ago I went into the city to go play ball at my moms school and seeming that I dont have a license and have no car, I took good ole public transportation. However when I left the house I completely forgot what time it was. Not that I was going to be late or anything like that, but I soon realized that it was the time when St. Agnes, which is two blocks away from my apartment, let out. Thankfully it wasn't that bad and I got a spot on the q65 but that wasn't my issue. Thankfully I had my music to take me away to a different place so I wouldn't lose brain cells by listening to the unrelenting mindless drivel that was coming out of their mouths. If I didn't have my mp3 player with me, then I would have beat my head against a hand rail till things went black. Unfortunately at some times some of their conversations went through cause my head phones are pretty weak. I kept hearing random things, like "oh girl your hair looks good" at least twenty times from like four different people. Then they would say it to someone else, like they were stuck on repeat and thats all they could say. The worst was when the bus got filled and we passed stops with people and some girl kept saying "oh sorry, good try though" and her crew of 8 or 10 girls laughed as if they didn't hear it about eight times before. It just reminded me of how much I hated bus rides like that back in high school, but fortunately those days are gone. I don't know what it is, but I have a severe dislike for small talk. It just rubs me the wrong way. I mean if it has some importance like if its some sort of information you need to know, like asking about homework, or asking for directions where your recieving some sort of pertinent information instead of saying something just to say it then thats fine. Atleast you're getting something out of it. It annoys me when someone who rarely speaks to me just says some random shit to me and then keeps on their way, or says nothing else after that. If you're gonna have a conversation with me, then lets talk, but if you just gonna say "oh I like your hat," and then just sit there next to me for 20 mins without saying something else or try to say something when I'm walking in a different direction, please save your breath. I'd rather just get a head nod or a quick hi or hey. If your saying something just to say it, without any meaning behind it, then just don't say it at all. Theres enough people who say enough stupid shit on the regular, don't be one of them.
-peace & love
