250,000 before W:O:A 09!

my parents were making stupid comments about me again earlier today

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

once saying I'd be surprised how little German I actually know

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

well obviously I'm no genius, and I've got a long way to go

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

but I'm no beginner anymore, I know somewhat what I'm doing

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

but the thing that upset me was, they said this despite having NO CLUE of what I've been doing

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

they have no idea how hard I've been working at it

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

yet they try to judge my abilities anyway

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

and then around the same time we were having a family lesson like we do [usually] every week

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

today's was on gratitude

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

I said I was grateful that I have no problem breathing the air...
as in, no asthma, no allergies, and most importantly no pollution... at least not to the point where it causes me trouble

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

they said that was stupid
or rather, "not a very good thing [to be grateful for]"

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

you just wait... it may not be that way in the relatively soon future...

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

but wtf, it's stupid that I'm grateful for what I've got BEFORE it's gone?!

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

aaarrrrggggggghhhhh

 

[xforeverxmetalx]

maybe you're the one that really needs the lesson...
