I’m not ignoring you, it’s just that

I have had so much to do so blogging has taken a step back. The school assignments had taken more time than usual. I’ve only finished them today. Then I’m writing a new fan fiction so my mind has been on that. I don’t think many have paid much attention to my absence anyway. Then there’s a school meeting on Friday and Saturday so the blogging won’t change. I have no motivation to blog either. So that’s an update from a personal side.

Oh yeah, movies. So I saw Exodus and Seventh Son. I planned to see Paddington but then I saw the original version wasn’t showed as much as the dubbed version. Damn. It’s looked like I won’t be seeing it in the theater after all. Stupid ticket prices. No way I want to see the dubbed one.
There’s been some propaganda about Exodus. When I saw it myself, I thought it was a great movie and Christian Bale even better. Some people just don’t understand movies. It’s entertainment, not a history lesson.
Then Seventh Son. It’s a shame it hasn’t had better success. When I went, there were just a bunch of people. It hadn’t even been in the theater that long. I thought it was an entertaining and exciting movie. Ben Barnes were great and also Jeff Bridges. One thing that was disappointed was lack of Kit Harington. I thought he would have a bigger role but he wasn’t in it very long. It would have been great to see him in another role than Jon Snow. But his day will come. And so will Ben Barnes. There’s something about him that makes me stare at him when he’s on-screen. The same with Bale. Maybe because they’re that good. And easy on the eye too.

Fiction Spoiler Alert!

I wish I had said something

I take you back to 5th grade. The year is beside the point. I was in this class the 2nd year. I had to take 4th grade twice so I had to leave my old class. The 1st year in this new class went OK. It was the 5th that turn into hell. There was this girl who seem to have issues with me. I wasn’t bullied the way some people are. But she somehow turned the other girls against me. It was whispering behind my back and leaving me outside the group. That is one kind of bullying I guess. I could feel they didn’t want me to be around them. I was all alone. School didn’t taste good so I was rather not there. I played hooky quite a lot because of that.

Group work was the worst. I really disliked that in the future. P.E. wasn’t fun either. I don’t know why the teacher let the pupils choose which ones should be in their team. I was good at sport and yet no one wanted me in theirs. This girl was awful at it. In general she was kind of stuck up. She was one of those that never got any spots. Miss Perfect herself (that’s what I think now) She wasn’t perfect at all. She wasn’t good in Math either.
Years later, I saw her in another school. I don’t know if she recognised me or not. It doesn’t matter. She didn’t seem to be that childish anymore anyway. I didn’t go to that school that long (for a different reason). I only saw her there once. I didn’t want anything to do with her. People like her are a waste of my time. I found out years later that she had cut a school at some point and worked somewhere. She didn’t become anything special which is a bit like, ha ha, in your face.

I wish I had said something to her in 5th grade. I would have told her where to get off. The worse thing was that she couldn’t say it to my face. Instead she said something to her friend and that friend told me (that friend used to my friend. Bloody backstabber :P) She didn’t want to sit by the same table in the diner because I had spots on my face. The friend suggested I should use some cream to make them disappear. Another thing was that I had some line on my nose that she didn’t like. It was just silly reasons. I didn’t say anything but if it was happening today, I would have said something to her. I think it was more than just some imperfect feature. I’ve thought about the time and came to the conclusion, she was just jealous. Maybe because I was good at sport or good at something else. Like I wrote, it doesn’t matter. I got rid of her and I don’t care anymore.

One thing I’ve learned through that experience. I will never let anyone treat me like that again. I’m a much stronger person now that I was then. It hasn’t put me down. Maybe that experience has had some effect on me. I’m careful with whom I confide in. I’m a private person and I don’t trust people. That’s the reason I don’t blog about personal things that often. If life would only be like blogging. Edit when you haven’t said something you wish you had.
