So here is it, a new section on my own pet peeves. Let’s start, shall we?
So, after classes, I have to take a bus that takes me home and there’s always something happening that claims my attention. This week was exactly what I’m gonna talk about.
On Tuesday after my classes (in which I’m no onger doing anything because the semester is practically over) I got to the bus stop to wait. No more than 10 minutes later, the bus got and I hopped in. About 3 stops later, a man whith a cellphone got in, suddenly his phone rang and he started talking and talking and talking so freaking loud, making my head almost aching.
What was going in my mind was: “What the hell? You don’t talk about business in a public bus.” “Why is he talking so loud?” “No one here cares about your business or whatever so please be quiet!”
It was so so incessant that I seriously was about to ask him to shut up, but it’s a free country, ain’t it?
But seriously, I find it so annoying, not only in buses, but in every public place. I don’t find funny nor nice letting everyone know what’s going on with your life and it’s quite stupid too„,or that’s what I think.
There’s nothing a good voice moderation can’t do.

Have you wonder why is it that everyone hates goodbyes? It can be saying goodbye to someone who is going on a trip, or someone who is moving out, or someone that you’re going to see the next day…
I couldn’t help but wonder all this when today I saw my mom returning to her place. I can never bring myself to not crying since she lives in other state and we don’t see each other very often. And while tears streamed down my face I was asking to myself: “Is this as painful for her as it is for me? Is it the promise to see each other again as soon as we can the thing that keeps us of crumbling down?”
Goodbyes are painful maybe because we see people leaving, and it could be either for a long or short time and we long so much the end of the goodbye in order to start letting go, even if we know we’ll be left with a knot in the throat and an empty space in your stomach.
I know from different sources that sometimes, saying goodbye is easy when you know that person is coming back, but I quite think that if they’re not coming back it could be rather painful.
Maybe what still makes you think it’s worth it is that most of those times, goodbyes are the sign of a chance in the way and that is ok.
As for right now, I’ll say goodbye and you should all know I’ll come back in a few days or so to keep posting in here.
How am I going to relax these last 3 weeks? I’ve got tons of works to get to the finals.
And just 3 weeks to finish the 4th semester of my career.
Wow, yes. Two years just flew by. Since the first day at college I met a lot of interesting people and who are an important part of my life.
College marked also an important part of my life in which not only brought a lot of people but also more information to learn and the opportunity to drive myself into something specific to do with my life.
To think that I just have 2 years left to finish studying and be thrown into real life, is overwhelming. Time just flew!
What would happen when it finishes? What would it feel like to be graduating after 4 years of preparation?
The person who I met here and that have gone down the road with me through it all will be my brothers and people who wouldn’t be forgotten at all. And I shall be grateful for everything that was given to me by my parents to fulfill my dreams.
I know this might sound a bit stupid and even corny but I feel like college is probably one of the biggest opportunities ever and to be done with it soon not only scares me but makes me so freaking happy.
Not everyone has this opportunity and I feel so grateful about it.
Sorry for the corny moment. I shall proceed to go away from here because I’ve started rambling.
