GATHER 'ROUND, KIDS. IT'S STORY TIME.


Okay, wasn't going to type this up, but I have the time.
Plus, I haven't been able to change the mood on my journal from "Grouchy" to anything else, and since the mood fits right now, why not? _{Hmm,... I'm more annoyed than grouchy, but close enough.}



OKAY, START!

Yeah, so I got invited to a cosplay photoshoot coming up, and most of the team is going as well.

It's an open, public shoot, and we're encouraged to invite as many people as possible, so I invited a school mate since she's always wanted to cosplay and go to cons, but never go the chance.
I thought the photoshoot would be a nice little experience for her and so we'd be talking about it online.

Later she talks about inviting a friend from another school and such, and I'm like, "Cool! Then you don't have to bus alone! ".
Eventually the conversation goes on to how her friend is not sure if they are going and I get this:

"I dunno I hope she does because she and I have been wanting to go to a cosplay for a REALLY long time , but I told her that I heard it from you , and you`re in grade 11 right ??? Well , I told her that and she`s like WOW OLD and I`m like SHE DOESN`T LOOK LIKE IT , SHE`S LIKE SHORT and then she`s like EWWW SHORT and I was like COME ON JUST COME"

Seriously.

Just. Seriously.

Kids.
(They're younger than me, if you're wondering.)
[edit] Just found out the kid is in grade 9 going to grade 10... >_>;;



Yeah, I basically gave the calmest reply I could saying that I'm really starting to dislike her friend since they're being rude by judging me without knowing me or knowing what I look like. Also that I will not be talking to her friend at the shoot. (I'd rather avoid conflict.)

I got a reply after:

"Yeah she is really rude but I know she`s just joking Sorry if you took that offensively ............. But no she`s really fun "

So I gave the friend of my schoolmate the benefit of the doubt and pretended I didn't read the previous message. I also asked my schoolmate to try and stop her friend from making jokes like that at the shoot as well.

I don't know how old her friend is, of course younger, but yeah. I asked, but I haven't gotten a message back yet. >_>;;


Oh yeah. I'm old. Real old.
PFFT. Yeah right.
Most full fledged cosplayers at generally around their 20's, since that's when they've gathered up enough experience. (Not saying that if you're younger, you can't. I've seen a lot of good young cosplayers, even 12-year-olds that are very pro! )

AND MY AGE (let alone 20) IS SO NOT OLD. ):<

Obviously the mentality of the friend is one of a very rude one.

URGH. Reminds me of those people that judge cosplayers if they're too "fat" or too "white" or "not Asian enough". >B|


Thanks to _{Hells Bells} and _Amapii for listening to me. >3>;;;;;

Another note, while I'm at it and have some free time.
OH HEY KIDS. ANOTHER STORY.

Joy.

So, ~IamCharon, ~ShadowAnjel_June and I were meeting at a local mall.

June was late, so Hells and I just walked around.

And then we passed these two girls and I hear Hells gasp, and I asked her what was wrong.
She asked if I heard what those girls said, and I didn't, so she told me that they looked at us and were like, "Shoujo... Ai...?".

Like. I thought maybe they were talking about a manga or something, but Hells assured me they were talking about us. Because they were staring and asking in a questioning tone.

Really. :/ I usually wouldn't be offended.
But, I don't think they said that because of anything we were doing. (We were walking around, talking, just like they were.) I wasn't even remotely crossdressed in anyway. :/

I just looked kind of gross (XD) that day because I was lazy.

They probably said that because they wondered why a pretty girl like Hells would be hanging out with a weird looking girl like me. >_>;; And that the only reason someone would break the status barrier of superficiality would be because they're dating someone.
Oh definitely not because they're friends.
No one goes that far for friendship.
>B|
Ignorant kids.

I'm over that, but I've kind of wanted to post it anyway. >3>;;

After June got to the mall and we told her what happened. She facepalmed.

I'm just posting this to restate how pointless superficial judging is.



ANYWAY.


Well, a long journal is finally back!
Having typed up a remotely long journal entry in awhile.




I FEEL BETTER. 8D
