Frust! So What?


Very often, as young people - we pen down out thoughts and feelings. Without a doubt, we do that in Facebook, Friendster, blog, MSN etc etc. It's out freedom to write what we want without society scrutiny. Reason being we have to behave in a socially accepted manner in work and outside (well at home too!). And often things get very frustrationg. At least I get frustrated. I hate all those rules and what not. Worst of all, I'm getting more frust as I am moving soon. There's high tension at home coz there's a whole lot more to be done than you can ever imagine. Plus, there's also another part of my live that's pretty upside down so I'm getting worked-up in some other aspect of my live.

My story is this: as I'm getting increasingly annoyed with my surroundings, I just write "=.= frust frust frust!" in the comment box of my gmail chat. Then when I get in my boss's office for him to sign stuffs, he said to me, "Why frust? You said in your gmail frust. Don't get frustrated." so I said, "Well, I'm moving soon and there's a lot to be done. I'm just getting a bit frustrated with things." To which he replied, "Don't get frust because of that. A lot of people don't have homes to live." Wow that moment, something surge inside me. I really want to ask him, "Right, if that's the case why don't you donate 50% of your money to the homeless and build houses for them instead of buying a villa that costs you millions? And don't you know that amount of money can do more use to society than your own comfort?" See, if you think you are SO into society and all, just go ahead and do it. Don't lecture me coz you don't have the right. Who are you again? I forgot.





Good thing I held my tongue but he got so irritatingly naggy and kept stressing "don't frust because of things like this". In the back of my head, I'm like - well I guess he doesn't know he's part of the reason I'm getting frust. And heck, it didn't help with that attitude. Right, what I'm saying is that, don't talk to someone like you know them. He doesn't know my situation at home and what happens, so don't talk like you DO. Get me? It gets annoyingly irritating when someone speaks as though they are the GURU that understand everybody's family situation and we gotta listen to your preachings. Get a life and stay out of mine.



I hate busybodies... No, if you're a friend, I'm more than happy to listen or get comments from you. It's just that when an outsider cross the line, it's not funny anymore. It's trespassing on your privacy.
