Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

You are a good daughter.

Sniffle Thanks.

Too bad your Mom's office mates are suck (typo left in on account of appropriateness) jerks.

Yeah, this. I was so proud of myself last year for subtlety and sheer-staying-in-the-background-ness. I don't want her to find out that her co-workers are still asshattish, and I had to rag them into being nice. Like I said, I don't want my "Middle Schooler" to find out I had a role in this at all.

Or, you know, porn.

Ah, good, something to improve the mood!

Epic, they are, as our beloved Rio would say, FUCKOS! and not in the good way.

At least I did get an email back from the Very Offended person accepting my apology and sounding like it won't travel any farther. I so hate that I have to deal with this Middle School bullshit.

Yep. Reason #13425 that I am glad she's retiring next month.

Epic, that sucks royally. I'm very sorry.

ION, thanks for the congrats for wee cousin, but it looks like the family is having second thoughts. Wee cousin is very stressed about finishing all of her requirements, so now they are thinking about having her graduate in December of next year and maybe starting college in the spring.

Her friends (who are, in her words, "not people I would be friends with if we hadn't grown up together") are shunning her for daring to be smart and leave school early. I hates her friends, yes I do.

Did you at least get your coffee out of it?

Yep. But now I'm still tired. WOE!

Eh. She'll make brand new friend who she'll get along with based on more than geography.

My mom used to say that every 5 years or so, I would outgrow my friends and be miserable. She is so right. I've had a core group of friends I've kept since we were freshmen or so, but about every 5 years it seems I have to look around and drop some of the new ones I've made.

Well, it sounds like they're more acquaintances than friends anyway. Not everybody who's "nice" to you is actually a friend, you know?

(Often a painful lesson to learn, of course)

That is a rough one to learn.

Not that you asked, but I would advise her to go ahead and wait until Fall if she isn't going to finish this year. I don't think that we're unique in the fact that we do not provide the structure and support for spring entrants that we do for fall. In addition, she will be new to college, not just the school. (our spring orientation is skewed toward transfers, not new entrants) Also, she may feel pressured to take on more in order to finish with her freshman classmates in 3.5 years. Clearly, she's capable, but it seems like unnecessary stress.
