please, don't smother me with your belligerant baggering.

*I'm sorry, but this post is completely horrible. I wrote this out of anger. Please excuse grammatical errors and spelling mistakes.

Are people really that oblivious? Disrespectful? Unprofessional?

I'm completely appalled at this horrific truth that seems to tainting this completely absurd generation. People have lost morals, ideals, or just a general basis of respect for the opposite party simply because they are looking out for themselves.

I'm in awe.

At this point, I'm probably just venting, but I feel like this is a topic that needs to be expressed.

I consider myself a fairly dedicated student. To be told otherwise completely ruins my entire persona. And I have certainly been told otherwise, whether its a direct statement or an implied expression of this "lacking dedication."

I've been told by my mother, my father, and now, to my utmost surprise, my own peers that I'm lacking diligence when it comes to education.

First of all, I will not be TOLD what I am or what I am lacking. No one, whether it's my parents or my peers, will tell ME what I am or am not or what I can or cannot do. It is no one's position to tell me what is wrong with me.

I am the only person that can judge myself. I am the only one that holds that right. I control my own actions and my own state of being.

Second of all, who the hell to people think they are to tell me what I should be doing? To tell me what I'm doing wrong, and not even consider my situation?

Please don't smother me with crap simply because you feel that you were treated unfairly, unjustly, or inadequately. Don't embarrass me because you feel the need that justice needs to be served.

Lastly, don't pretend like nothing is wrong. Don't pretend that I'm the one at fault and that you're the only one that is right. NO.
