In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too.
Or am I a fool who sits alone talking to the moon.
How come a teenagers life is so complicated? It full of useless, time wasting things that we feel the need to do. The ball, social outings, facebook, msn, tv, music, downloads, books, photos , they're all useless. Yet, why do every single one of us fuss and worry over such unnecessary stuff?
After all, it wont be beneficial to us in any way in the future.
I hate how i get caught up in doing all these things that i always end up forgetting what is most important. School, and Family. None of the previously mentioned stuff should actually be on our minds right now. Its not going to change our lives, its not going to help us with our lives, its just there for us stupid little humans to waste time on and entertain ourselves with.
I always tell myself that i should improve myself, study some extra books, learn some knowledgable stuff that will make me a high placed person in society in the future. But all that is forgotten as soon as i go home from school and turn on the computer. How is it that i can waste so much time doing so little things? Why do these little things mean so much to me?
I hate our generation now, how we turn on the computer as soon as we go home, and we just say " good" when our parents ask us how school was. Our parents, who have spent so many years to bring us up and teach us, should not deserve all these mood swings and this kind of treatments from us teenagers. Is it really so hard to turn around, look them in the face and tell them how you get a housepoint if you buy a salad from the school canteen, or that you've recieved a certificate during assembly, or that you only went to the library at lunch and borrowed a book? I'm pretty sure the parents would be more than happy to hear what you bought for lunch, and what you learnt in class, even if its the most boring thing ever for you. They've raised you for 16 odd years, and their attempts to get closer to you and understand you have been crushed under your single worded answers. You might think that they dont care about what you did at school, and all they care about is your marks, but you aren't thinking things from their perspective at all.
They make you angry, they make you frustrated, You get annoyed and wonder why they're so dumb. But really, in a few years, you're going to look at your own child and say " So how was school? What did you do?" desperate for some kind of topic to talk to with your own very child that you've seen take their first step and say their first words to. Just because our parents have been there ever since you were born doesn't mean that you can take them for granted and treat them like shit. ( I"M NOT TALKING ABOUT YOU SPECIFICALLY, I"M ... STEREOTYPING. :3)
And really. Are friends really much more important than family? Who is it that will support you in anything you do? Who will still be there when everyone graduates and leaves you? Why is it that as soon as you go home, you go to your room and turn on the computer to chat to friends that you've just seen 30 minutes ago? what MORE can you possibly chat about? Why waste your time talking about some thing that could be said the next day, and why not use that time to study, or to spend time with family?
The generation we live in now have families that eat dinner at different times, and have no means of communications between each other at all. Whats the point of being a family then? You're just a bunch of strangers who live together and take each other for granted. Your mother doesn't have to wake up at 5:30 with you and help you make breakfast and drive you to school. She could sleep in till 10, and go to work, and come home late at night. But she doesnt, cos she loves you and wants you to have the best upbringing, and so THAT is how she drags herself out of bed and does all that stuff for you. its not like she gets up at 5:30 for fun.
MAKES ME SO FRIKKEN FRUSTRATED.

KIDS THESE DAYS DONT REALISE THAT THEY"RE GOING TO GROW UP AND HAVE THEIR OWN KIDS TREAT THEM LIKE HOW THEY TREATED THEIR OWN PARENTS.
I wish we could go back to the olden days where all the kids studied really hard and went to sleep at 7:00 at night because there was no source of light. Where they would have the greatest respect for their parents and help out where ever they can, cos they've got heaps of time on their hands.
Now, i bet you're thinking that WE dont have time. that school is making you "oh so busy".
what a load of crap. you MAKE your own time. it was your fault that you slept at 1:00 playing dota, or that you just spent 2 hours clicking on "home" continuously on facebook wondering if someone would write on your wall, or "like" a witty status that you spent ages thinking up. The concept of time is there for us to control. ourselves.
You're never too busy. You've got loads of time. It all depends on how you waste it.
You'd think that "oh, i've still got heaps of time left in life, i'm only 16."
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh no. next thing you'd know, you'd be 21. then you'd be 49. then you'd be 60 something and looking at your own grandkids and thinking where all your time went to.
shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. thats right. it all went to writing this stupid frikken blog.
i'm so freakin sleep deprived.
LOL
i'm going to .. uh.. sleep.

ReplyDeletethe illusion that homework/social situations are dominating our lives is really destructive and sad.

ReplyDeleteLOL I KNOW.
ReplyDeletedepressinggg. D:
i agree with most of the stuff you say, really well written! :3
ReplyDeletenow if only we could get this posted on every child's wall so it could be the first thing they see when they wake up. :D
another thing this rant reminds me of - it's like when we get annoyed with our parents and are all "yeah i'm gonna be a better parent and not yell and ban stuff" etc but in reality, we're gonna hv 2 do that anyway to be gd parents right >.>
maybe the reason why we care so much about these non-essential things is cause as self-concious teenages with no definite identiy and subconcious need to conform even though you may not admit to it, we can find a sense of comfort in what we make from these things which waste our life and our time. Maybe it's just part of our journey to find who we are, you can't change that.
