Okay, leaving a tuna sandwich in your locker for an extended period of time when all the lockers are located in the room with couches and a stereo for students to chill. How stupid can you possibly get?
I still loathe that girl. I always will. Alwaysalwaysalways

Not really a big deal. It's just that my chorus concert is tonight. Basically.....we suck. Well, I'm not worried about mixed chorus. It's girls' chorus I'm worried about. There's only 15 of us, I'm pretty much the loudest one, and I've missed the last few rehersals. Plus we have to do this huge number w/ the orchestra. We rehersed w/ them today and....yea. Didn't go over too well. The teacher said it's fine, but it sucks. The orchestra sounds like crap, they're probably gonna drown us out, the entire song is in African, so we're kinda shaky on the lyrics, and most of the girls in the chorus aren't all that good at singing. Sheesh! Plus I gotta get ready & go somewhere tonight instead of lazing about & relaxing. I'll be glad when the damn concert is over.

Right now I hate two things - the b*tch on Depp Impact and the b*tchy people at Musicals.net. We have a thread there where you have to name musicals A to Z.... so I ACCIDENTLY PUT KISS ME KATE FOR 'K' AND SOMEONE ALREADY SAID IT AND SO I GET CRAP FOR THAT.
Well, f*ck it. I'm really sorry I messed up your f*cking game.
Well... I'm more or less upset at DI.

This isn't really a rant, more of a moping-why-me thing (I've said it on the party and 3 Random Facts threads, too, but it's really upsetting me).
My friend has been having some issues at home lately. It's been tearing her apart and she's been telling me and another of our friends about the horrible array of stuff that's been going on. To name a few: Her mom's been saying she's obscenely fat when she's really thin and she's been bringing vodka to school disguised as water. All we did was listen to her rant. No advice, no telling people that needed to know, just listening. So, now she got caught with the vodka and suspended from school and she's in huge trouble at home and being forced into seeing some shrink. If I had just done something about all this, she probably wouldn't have gotten into this bad a situation. Of course, I didn't get that idea until it was too late, so, hello suspension! It's all my fault...

IT isn't your fault BJR and actually, it might be better this way. If she's getting verbally and emotionally abused at home then they'll see it now. And probably help her. The Suspension thing, well, I don't know about that. I hope things get better for her, and don't blame yourself okies? It isn't your fault.

I think I have depression, b/c I have a lot of symptoms for it. And this makes it hard to focus on Science Fair, which is next Thursday. Oh, I'm worried that I won't get it done in time, b/c my teacher makes it sound like if someone gets a "good" and not an "excellet" or "superior" then he'll be very disappointed. I'm afraid... XP

I had a whole rant typed up yesterday, and then my mom made me walk the dogs. When I came back, she'd shut off the computer and hidden the keyboard and mouse. I finally got it back today, after cleaning up the basement to earn it back.
And now my original rant is gone, so retyping it would only make me feel bad and angry all over again. I guess this is my rant now: Venting about the fact that my original, which was just there for me to read and made me feel so much better, is gone.
I wanna say something to just get it off my chest, but I'll probably end up with a one-way ticket to hell for insulting my parents XP
Okay, so that's what, the fifth time my mom's snapped at me in the past 2 days? Alright, so I provoked her on purpose one of the times, but she was being so ridiculous I kind of deserved to be able to give her one remark.
She's exercising, and I wanted to know what we were having for dinner. She had earphones in, so she couldn't hear me. I asked again, and she took out one of the earphones. I asked for the third time what we were having for dinner, and she said she didn't know. That confused me, because I thought she said earlier that we were gonna order pizza. So I asked again, but she had the headphones in. I got her attention, but she said "I can't hear you"
You'd think she might be smart enough to, instead of point that out, simply take an earphone out of her ear so she could hear me. Instead, I said it again, and she ignored me. So I reached over and pulled one of the earphones out and started asking if we were getting pizza or not. She got mad at me and said "Ouch! Geez, Tara, I'm trying to exercise, wait til I'm done!"
She flips out over the smallest things, and whenever my brother or I try to point that out to her, she flips out even more. She's a public speaker and talks about "lowering your shields" so you and the other person aren't always arguing and getting nowhere. I've been practicing that myself, despite the fact that I have no good role model. My dad's just way too passive, and my mom's like a friggin cobra. One little nudge and she snaps. She just. Doesn't. Get it.
It just makes me wanna go out into the woods and scream as loudly as I can. Or better, drag her out into the woods and just scream at her there, so we don't upset my little sister even more. There was a time when my mom was shouting at my brother at dinner, and he was shouting back at her. My dad didn't do anything except say "Listen to your mother" and my sister started crying. Nobody did anything. I think I was the only one who was wondering why the hell somebody wasn't trying to comfort her. Eventually I just got up and put my plate full of food on the counter and took her upstairs.
Well, the ranting/venting didn't do too much. Now I'm just angry and I wanna shout at her about it. Does anyone else get this tight feeling in their chest/stomach/throat when they're angry? I have it in my throat, and it feels like if I just shout it'll go away. Or cry. Either one, really
One more thing to rant about for now. Can't we all, like, reply to other people's rants? It just seems like everyone posts stuff about stress and depression and stuff here, and then someone else posts their problems, and.....I know this isn't the case, but it makes it look like no one cares about anyone else. And I dunno, it's probably just me, but I come here to rant and vent and hope that someone might reply and help me feel better, cause sometimes it's not enough to just shout it all out to no one

I'm going to reply to your rant if it will make you feel better. 
I'd be careful with your anger and stuff. I know parents like that suck, I have a friend who has them. In fact my previous rant was about her. I'd keep on your toes if I were you, or something like that might happen.
Anyway, talking to people always makes her feel better. Her best friends, no matter how sucky they listen  , always make her feel like her friends suck less. Of course, Julie and I usually make her feel better by insulting her mom A LOT, and I don't know anything to say about yours except this: She doesn't know how cool her daughter is and is being unfathomably cruel to an awesome person. (Wow, that actually sounds like it WILL make you feel better! I'm getting better at this!)

The fact that you replied at all made me feel better, actually. And saying that made me sound conceited
The world's just got too much guilt in it, dammit!
That's my new favorite quote; it's so ridiculous
She tells me all the time she thinks I'm cool. And I don't believe her. I mean, I believe she thinks I'm cool, but I don't believe I'm cool. I don't believe it when she says it, anyway
She's usually fun. But when she gets annoyed or agitated, she gets really annoyed and agitated. And then all we do is get snapped at, and then once it's over she acts like nothing happened. I wanna bring up how bad I feel when she snaps at me, whether I'm sad or mad, but once it's over there's no bringing up the subject again, because all she'll do is get defensive and call me defensive. It's an endless cycle, and I haven't found the secret to breaking it yet.
I can understand the fact that she wants to put anything mean she says to her kids behind her and just say "It's all in the past," which she does remarkably well. However, it only makes her feel better. I dunno about my siblings, but I'd like to hear her say "I"m sorry Tara, I was wrong to lose my temper. You didn't do anything wrong"
The only way I can get her to apologize is to cry, which isn't what I feel like doing sometimes. Sometimes I just shout, and she flips out. And sometimes when I do cry she just gets more and more frustrated. I asked her something for about the fifth time at her door one night, literally in tears, and she just got so frustrated that I was interrupting her reading and told me to go to bed.
I don't forget these things. When I try and prove my point that she gets defensive and doesn't listen, I use these examples as evidence, and she tells me "That was then, not now. It doesn't have anything to do with the current situation"
She's so blind sometimes
and, to top it all off, I just spilled gatorade all over myself.

My mother does that as well, and I in fact am envious of your ability to keep in tears. (I break down so easily)
and For your earlier thing, I do try to comment and help if I can with the ranting and the venting. But sometimes... it's best to leave it be eh?

I keep from crying too well. It bothers me sometimes, actually. I try and cry, but I can't a lot of the time. There have been so many sad and tragic and horrible things I've seen already (I don't wanna go into detail), and I should've cried about something.
Well yeah, sometimes people just get worked up and need to let off steam and just shout at no one so nobody gets hurt. But other times, you really just need someone to talk to
I dunno, it was just a thought. and I was in the ranting mood when I wrote it ^.^;;;

Well, aren't we all normally in that mood when we write rants?
And... at times, I'm so weird... I cry when I shouldnt, but when I should cry at times, I can't.

So,I was uber excited about going to see Stephen King give a lecture thing. I've been bouncing around for the past two days about it because I LOVE Stephen King. He is awesome. I couldn't wait to buy tickets and go. Well. I just found out that tickets have been sold out forever...even before I knew that he was coming. And I'm so mad. Everytime something exciting like this happens to me I always have this weird feeling like "this is way too good to be true" and it never fails... My plans always seem to screw up. -_-;
It's the same way when the guy who plays Freddy Kruegar came to a theme park near me and I stood in line 3 hours in the summer heat to get an autograph and right when I was about to get it he suddenly had to go catch a plane.
Gah,I'm angry. =/

God, why don't people in this stupid world just stop for a minute and think?
That wasn't even close to a rant, but I'm just in one of my moods right now. I've gotta scribble on something

My day has been completely wasted. Every time I tell myself "This is gonna be a good day" it turns out exactly the opposite. I haven't had a good day since.... forever! And I even stopped telling myself positive things, it is not helping. I'm so mad right now I can scream. And I have been yelling at my computer, and it doesn't help, either.
