Me: So, you heard about S.V. ending up in the Newspaper already?
He: No, not really. Why? I never was in her class, but I heard she was an annoying girl. I only met her brother though; he was most obnoxious.
Me: *.* So, the world was NOT blind?!!!! Praise the High Ones!!

Thursday, May 24, 2007
During my break today, I read the newspaper. Who cares, happens all the time, ne? Well, for the first time in my life I suddenly called 'Ah, nee hè?!', which is roughly translated as 'Aw, you got to be kidding me!'
What it was about? A girl who was a talented producer and actress when it came to drama/ theather, while she was only 22. I won't mention her name; I don't wish to ruin her name. Yes, she worked for it and she might be good, but I know her.
Oh boy, do I know her.
She was in the drama club in High School. And so was I. Was she better than me? Who knows... and who cares anyway! I don't aspire to be an actress or so. But she was one of the reasons why I quit the drama club.
Why? Because she's a Miss goody two shoes and has an ego the size of Earth! The Drama teacher ADORED her, and I'm so not kidding. For 2 years, the Drama Teacher began with: "Let's write a play together!! Hand in your suggestions next week!"
And the week after?
"OH! We got a play people! Look what S.V. wrote!!"
Okay... so we were asked to hand in suggestions and S.V.'s story was picked. If that happens once, it's something that should be bareable. If it happens a second time, it gets ^&%JHGJBV.
So, she wrote a play. Twice. Big deal. If we had to fill some scenes ourselves, it was always okay... until S.V. rewrote it! Her version was ALWAYS picked. Hello??! Do we still exist??!
So, she wrote a play, twice, and her suggestions were always preferred over anyone else's. Annoying, yes, but that was not the end. EVERYTHING she said was enough to let her be carried on the hands of the drama teacher. S.V. this, S.V. that, look at how great she is.
So she had acting skills. Maybe she was even good, I can't judge that. But why, WHY, did she have to say it herself as well?! She didn't think she was good... she thought she was GREAT! Her ego smelled like last year's cake.
So she was the drama teacher's pet. So everything she said was adored by the drama teacher and the other students. Do I sound jealous? Oh please, I'd rather call it being realistic. Didn't ANY of those sheep had an own opinion? Or is having an own opinion the same as social suicide? Because, honestly, nobody EVER disagreed. NOBODY! That's simply unrealistic. The Drama Teacher put Miss S.V. on a hill and everyone kissed the floor around her because well, if the Drama Teacher thinks she's great, she MUST be great!
So, miss S.V. never heard of Teamplay, Modesty, or listening to others. And yet the world adores her. And yet she thinks she is great. So what that she's a 22 year old producer? If people NEVER disagree with you, they are NOT HONEST! She doesn't get things her way, she PUSHES things her way. Everyone around her just has to dance like she pleases.
You still think I'm jealous? Wouldn't you be? I mean, the girl who wrecked the Drama Club because of her ego and non-existing-ability to listen to others, suddenly gets mentioned in the newspaper. Only praise.
That's why I'm not mentioning her name. I don't want to smear the name she built. You see S.V., unlike others, I know how to admit bad things about myself. I know I'm jealous. Because you are all famous, while you were a %KBV^&VC.
And me? I'm struggling to get people to notice my book. But in the end, I will remain my modesty. I know I'm not the greatest in the world and I know I will never be that. The question is... will YOU ever realise that?
Oh, and good luck with your future. The day people will see your other side, will be a hard one. Be careful, because that one moment can wreck everything you built up thus far. A part of me hopes that day will come, so you will finally realise what kind of an ego-tripper you are. An other part of me hopes it will not come. After all, you worked hard for this all. ... At least, I assume you worked hard for it. Just like I'm working hard for my dream.
Just know that because of your ego, I lost the desire to become an actress. I rather wanted someone to call me a bad actress than losing my voice as a whole... like what happened
