): I feel so stupid): It's like finding out, after believing all your life, that you are actually an adopted kid and that your family's not your family and your name's not your name. Except okay, it's not THAT extreme, but it's the same kind of feeling - stupid and betrayed.
Today during break, Shawn was stabbing away at his styrofoam plate with his fork. And I just couldnttttttttttt stand to look at it and insisted he stopped. So okay, I am no environmental advocate or anything and I do sin to the earth and all too, but stabbing it with a fork is just TOO blatant a way to be killing earth... Or so I thought... that breaking styrofoam is bad for the environment. DON'T LAUGH OKAY): ALL my life, I've believed that breaking styrofoam is damn bad like when you break it, it'll release this gas which would like flyyyyyyyyy into the atmosphere and then make many holes there and then cause sunlight to penetrate through the holes and kill the earth. But today when I said that everyone just stared at me with the "OMG-ARINA-WHAT!" look): I don't know HOW or WHY but it's just something I've lived by all my life. And I'm quite sure this is no product of my overactive imagination. That someone actually told me this! And to think I've believed it ALL 17 years of my pathetic life):
): ): ): ): It's really quite sad okay. ): 17 years is a longgggg time to be fooled. I bet that person who told me was just irritated with how I used to want to destroy all the styrofoam I could find. But it's like quite exciting don't you think... They like break down into small teenyweeny balls. Ahh now that I realised how I have been fooled and void of that exciting childhood of pouncing on all the huge blocks of styrofoam you get when you buy new furniture and stuff, I feel quite annoyed.
