Get out of my way...

This is my first personal rant in a long time and my first ever for this blog. I'm really tired of people trying to hold me back or tell me what to do. Yes, I know it's just a matter of life and death; the way it is. But seriously people? What gives you the right to tell me what I can and can't do. I'm an adult. I'm not your child. You have no authority over me.

Yesterday a tractor-trailer driver who almost pushed me off the highway was mad that he couldn't get in my lane and then later decided to take further road rage by forcing me off the road and jamming his brakes so that I almost rear-ended him. There were witnesses. I'm not exaggerating. He wanted what he wanted and when he didn't get it he thought that I should die.

While writing this, an older lady in the library told me that I needed to turn down the music on my iPod because she could hear it. I'm not even on the quiet floor. There are people talking all around me! Really?

I need Winter Break. I need it and now that it's here I walk into it mad? Why?

I'm just tired. Tired of it. I'll make my own decisions. So just get out of my way...

I choose to be happy. I choose it. So people, take two steps back, think before you speak. And look out, because I won't be stomped on. I'll defend myself. I'm not timid. It doesn't matter if you think I'm weak. I have a backbone and I'll stand up for myself.
