Everything is Okay, Okay?

     One thing that I don't like is when others feel sorry for me. I get that people get sad for me when things don't go my way, but I don't need anyone looking down on me. When you're in a tough spot, people tend to drag themselves down to your level and attempt to sympathize with you instead of bringing up you. Think about it: it's easier to feel sorry for someone rather than helping them out. It's simple as that.

     Life is tough sometimes. Not everyone has a loving family, is rich, or is popular. Especially as teenagers, there are somethings in life we don't have any control over. And that's why I can't wait till I'm an adult. But that's the whole point of it; learning to live with what you already have. So there isn't any need to tell a person how depressing it must be to have divorced parents, or no friends. Yes it's unfortunate, but saying that creates a sense of inferiority for the person listening. If you tell someone how sorry you are for them, it's portrayed like you're better. Or it makes it seem like they're missing out just for the sake of missing out. When in fact they can't do anything about it. And although that may not be your intention, that's how it goes.

     I can say that my life isn't that easy. And it's the same with everyone else. But that's my life. I can put up with the situations I am living with. It's a numb feeling because I deal with them all the time. I don't even realize what others consider "burdens" are actually burdens. Or "misfortunes," misfortunes. But when someone brings up how sad it is that I don't have this or that, it just makes me angry. And it also creates self pity that was never there in the first place. I'm sorry I don't have what you have. Except I'm okay with that. But not everyone understands. I think that sometimes people fail to realize it's not disastrous not having perfect families or a huge house. It's just how life is meant to happen. There's no negativity for the absence of things until someone makes it seem so. 

     Everyone wants to help a person out who's unlucky, or is going through a tough time. But not everyone needs it. Although I can really understand why people say they feel sorry. I mean if they don't, they feel helpless. And I even say that sometimes too. Except when those things are said, it's realized how we don't have everything good and sweet in the world. And that's what angers us the most.

    Sometimes we fail to realize that a listening ear is all that's needed for comfort.

Four Clues Led Me Straight to You: Prom!

(Prom prom prom. Ain't that a fun word to say?)


     Hey guess what? Jane Yang is going to prom! So Will asked me to prom on Saturday. It was pretty great. I was sent on a little goose chase with 4 clues to find him. And that's how I got the idea for the title of this post. Pretty clever huh? Yeah I thought so. I'm a poet and I didn't even know it. So anyways, all of my friends were in on it and I had no idea. It was a great surprise and I'm happy that we'll be going together. Prom should be a fun night. So thanks Will for planning the best promposal ever, and making it awesomely awesome. It was very sweet of you. Seriously, that was a very well, thought out promposal. Oh and thanks to all of my amazing friends who helped him. I'LL SEE YOU GUYS AT PROM. 

 Jane Yang is now signing off with a bang.
(Wow no one can handle my rhyming skills)

Say Yes Juliet?


     Ayyyy, another one of my best buddies got asked to PROM!!! Yay for Juliet! So my friend Austin asked her to prom yesterday and it was great. He initially asked her over text (lame I know) but he redeemed himself on that day. Austin was actually pretty nervous though. Probably because he's homeschooled and has never gone to a school dance haha. But I'm glad he's going and I'll see both of them there! I hope Juliet felt like a princess because she is one. And I made this video for the both of them. I hope you guys like it!

Christine's Promposal!!!


 
     Just thought that this was the cutest promposal! My friend Stephen asked one of my best friends Christine to prom this Saturday. She totally had no idea about it. And I think that the fact she didn't know was the best part. Stephen and all of our friends had been planning for almost a month and it finally payed off. It was actually very adorable how much time and effort he put into this promposal. It's every girls dream to be asked in an creative way. Man, props to Stephen for doing that. I'm really really excited that Christine is going to prom with Stephen. I hope they have the best time!!!!!!!!!!!

     Seriously, promposals are the best time of year.
