Bewilder

Have you ever been shocked by the way people talk to you? Or even to others? Well I got a story for you tonight.

Last night I went to a wonderful play of White Christmas put on Albuquerque Little Theater. It was a very good show and had a very good cast. It wasn't what I expected it to be. I do have to say that it made me want to watch the movie White Christmas. The last time I remember being at the ALT I was a little girl. I still feel the same way that I did back then, like the theater is some magical place. Some place that I would like to go some times when I need to get out of the real world.

There is something I didn't quite expect what I heard from an old man that sat at the end of our row. Of course me being a girl I decided that I need to go to the bathroom before the show started. So I got up and went but on the return trip to my seat I found that their was another couple sitting at the end of the seat. I asked him if I could get passed him to my seat. Do you want to know what he said. He told me "Why don't you go around?" I just looked at him because I didn't know what to say. Then he said again "No I'm serious go around!" I was shock at his attitude.

Through the whole show I thought about what I said thinking that maybe I didn't ask right or something. But I still don't think that what he said was something that should be said to any one. Does anyone in this world still have manners. I am just shocked that an older man was so rude.

I feel like I need to watch what I say more. I don't feel that I said the right thing at the moment. I can't even remember what I said to the man. I just remember the shock on my face. I want to say that my parents did a good job raising me. I want to show the world that I can be respectable.

Squeezed

Have you ever felt like a sardines in a can? I felt that way earlier today, I got on a bus that had people so tight in there that some people wanted to get off quick. Personally I don't like being around a lot of people that I don't know on top of me. But I did have very interesting experience riding on the bus today.

The first ride this old man sat next to me. When the bus got really full I said "Who don't we feel like sardines." The old man let out a little giggle and then said that he will remember that one. I was just glad that I could make his day. It was that one little giggle that made my day way better then it started. Which is another story all together.

The second ride, it took me a while to find a seat because their was so many people on the bus. It didn't take long for me to actually get a seat. There are a lot of guys around here are actually gentlemen on the out side not to sure about the inside. But they were letting the women and children sit in the seat. Then eventually I had some guy sit next to me on the bus. We chatted a little bit. Then he asked me if I had a phone. I felt really bad because I lied to him. Part of me wanted to have nothing to do with him because he looked like a thug. The other part of me was like thanks for noticing me and what a good person I am. It's hard for me to say this but I think I am ok with being single for the first time in my life.

Taking the time to get to know my self is really helping me a lot with my confidence in my self. I feel like I don't need to be someone I am not. I don't want to change to get a guys attention. I just think that people enter our lives because we need them to. God does things that amaze us everyday. Like this cold weather.

So, is their someone that has affected your life in a way that you didn't expect? How did they change your life?
