So.
I'm sitting here in front of the PC and unable to do anything because I'm unable to connect as my mom is currently talking with my sister. I think she had a fight with that sort-of-friend of hers again. Yesterday, she and my mom fought over something really trivial. I mean, it's trivial to me. My sister failed an OB exam, and she was angry yesterday because of that. As she had claimed (or so mom said) "she doesn't fail exams" with a definite emphasis on the she. Tch. So trivial. If I had been the one who failed the exam, it wouldn't have been a big deal. I mean, sure, I do believe I've never failed an exam even just once in my life. Well, alright, I did--once. But hey, that doesn't count at all because no one passed that exam at all.
So anyway, if it had been me, even though I've never really failed even once (the lowest I ever got on an exam that counted was 2.75 and even then it didn't matter because most everyone else failed) on an exam, if I had failed I would never get angry like that. Moreover, I would never ever -ever- vent out my anger on someone else--especially someone who had absolutely nothing to do with my frustration and and most especially someone who doesn't even have an inkling as to why I'm angry at all.
I mean, granted, if it -had- been me--I wouldn't have gotten angry at all. But then again, when have I ever gotten angry at anything so trivial? If I got angry, it's gotta be something major, because, in all truth and honesty, I don't get angry much. Irritated, yes, lots of times. Annoyed, plenty of times. P'od, hell, yeah. But majorly, honest-to-goodness angry...? Well...I don't remember, but it might have been senior year in high school. I think I might have thrown some of my things around and hit a couple of people in my house.
Anyway, the point is, I don't get angry over trivial things. I strongly suggest my sister do the same thing. But then again, that would be...like...saying she should be more like me. Or she should -be- like me. And that would be way out of line.
I think it would help her out a lot if she tries to lie low a bit more when these things happen. Well, she knows she's very vocal and I think she likes being vocal because she thinks it's the best kind of person to be, but really, some things are better off left unsaid. Saying what's on your mind is good, but only to a certain extent. She has a tendency to...say things upon impulse, without thinking, and a lot of times they come out doing what they shouldn't--cause other people pain. More importantly, cause -her- pain, because afterwards she regrets what she has said but the thing is, what's said and done can never be undone, even if you say sorry. If whatever was said was especially painful, even if you apologize to the person and he or she has forgiven you, fact remains that IT HAD BEEN SAID. It might have been forgotten on a superficial level, but the memory will stay in that person's heart of hearts for very long, perhaps even to the point of forever.
Ah well. What can I say? I'm not her. She's not me.
I wonder how she's gonna deal with this. Personally, I think she would be much better off quitting medical school and getting a good job and paycheck. Maybe then she would be easier to live with.
Ah, what am I thinking...? Hm. Maybe I just miss her.
And I miss my Gluhen DVD.>_<
