When Life Gives You Lemons
Description
Because when you fail in everything you do and everybody else succeeded, you just gotta sit back, try to take a deep breath and eat some pizza and tachos to ease your mind. (And possibly prepare mentality because mom would be so mad when she heard that I failed the English exam. FML).
This is the story about my life, or mostly my fate after I met some idiots who think that they could help me in life, and how I'm struggling to get out from my sister's shadow...
I did not intend to be so emo but hey, at least I managed to earn some friends who supported me instead of my sister whom everybody loved dearly.
This is my life. If you are sick of a teenage girl's confession about her everyday situation you better leave before everything gets terribly awkward. But if you choose to stay, I will remind you that:
1. No, I am not pretty
2. No, I am not incredibly smart
3. No, I am not terribly bullied at school but
4. Yes, I don't have much friends either
5. No, I am not your typical girl who is nice to everyone
6. No, I don't do selfharm when I get stressed, because I personally think that cutting a piece of cake would be better than cutting your wrist until it bleeds. P.S. I am scared of my own blood, don't ask why.
7. No, I am not skinny. Or slim. Or proportional. Last but not least;
8. No, I don't have a male best friend who is unexpectedly handsome and smart at the same time who had a crush on me or either I had a crush on him who'll always support whatever I do. I repeat, I. DO. NOT. HAVE.THAT. KIND. OF. FRIEND. ( I don't have much to begin with T-T)
If you had read until here, congratulations, you had just read total useless bulls about myself. Haha just kidding, do enjoy the ride because somehow I never saw them coming.
Foreword
I have a confession to make.
I am a sinner...
Okay maybe not that kind of sinner who would steal stuff or kill someone. I'm not that cruel or even that daring to do such hideous things.
I am a sinner because, I had just eaten 2 plates of lasagna, 3 bowls of Chinese noodles, a small bowl of pudding and a glass coke on my diet. And my mom found out about it. Damn, I thought I already sneaked into the kitchen like a ninja.
So here I am, kneeling on the cold hard floor, hands firmly fisted and raised to the air while my dear mother ranted on how I should start losing some weight because I'm fatter than average girls my age. Do not blame me, I am still in my growing process so it is normal for me to eat that much right?
"You should act more like your elder sister. She isn't as tall as you hence she ate less and now had a very perfect body posture. Now look at you," she said while giving me a pointed look. Haha. Very funny. She is still using the 'elder sister' card until now.
"I should have banned you from eating at that pizza place downtown," my mom sighed ungracefully and frowned before stomping off to the kitchen and maybe grab herself a nice cup of cold water to cool down her burning anger. Or was it disappointment. Either way, i just kinda know she is not in the best mood. She soon came back into the living room where I had been kneeling the whole 15 minutes.
"Promise me not to eat that much again."
An awkward silence.
"I promise."
Frogs croaking in the background.
"I do not see the sincerity written on your face."
"I, Hwang Shin Ae, will not eat that much ever again. I promise." But I could still eat more right?
"You said it to yourself! Now go to your room and start studying for your national exam," the almost middle-aged woman strutted into her bedroom leaving me flabbergasted.
But...
But national exam is not until a few months..... If my face could be a LINE sticker, I could be crying buckets right this moment... Life is so unfair.
