Grrrrrr - bloody annoyed!!! (Longgg post)

Okay, this is going to be a huge ranting thread, so thank you if you actually read all of it. I really have no idea what I expect people to say..I think I just need to sleep it off...if only I could!! (insomniac at uni)

Ok, basically absolutely everyone has been pissing me off today. You know those days where just nothing can go right? Argh! I was meant to be going down to sign the contract for our house next year in the estate agent's after uni today with my flatmate who's broken up for Easter already but was staying til today just to sort this out. Anyway, yesterday we needed to clarify something about what they needed us to bring (photo ID and a bill) but neither of us have a bill here 'cos all our stuff is sent to our home addresses, not uni. Anyway, we briefly discussed it and said we'd ring them in the morning to clarify what they wanted/if we could sign it the next day. Anyway, this morning came and it just completely slipped my mind. I was rushing 'cos I needed a shower and had to pack stuff for my hydrotherapy class along with lecture notes and I don't have any credit left and no money to top up, so I couldn't ring them and they hadn't emailed me back. You'd assume that my flatmate would handle this and try and sort something out herself for once. (She didn't, she never does.)

After sitting through 2 hours of boring lectures I texted her asking if she'd rung them, being quite nice like how are you etc did you ask them about the bill? xxx and she just replied "no, coz you said you were going to ring at 9!" :| So I was like right okay, well I don't have any credit so couldn't. She didn't bother replying despite the fact we were meant to meet up outside the estate agent's. She sent me one text after I got out of my hydro class just saying what time/where am I meeting you? And didn't bother replying the whole time I texted her (about 3 times in total). I spoke to my other flatmate who said she hadn't even left yet, while I was on the bus waiting to get there....then she randomly said she wasn't going to bother going 'cos she was running late! So arghhhhhhhhh.

She's being such a git recently. Half the time she's lovely and the rest of the time she's like a totally different person! I always end up cooking for her and my other flatmate (who's a guy) 'cos they're not v good at looking after themselves and I'm kinda viewed as the 'mum' of the flat..which I don't really mind, so long as other people pull their weight now and then! But literally yesterday, I cooked a full on roast dinner and neither of them lifted a finger to help! They just knocked my door asking what time I was cooking food...and she hadn't done any of her dishes so I had to lend her one of mine...and then she moaned 'cos I put veg on her plate!!! :mad: It's not even that but she took ages to come out after I said dinner was ready and then she just finished eating and walked straight out without saying thank you or even putting her plate on the side!!!!! She lent a bowl off my other flatmate the other day and just didn't wash it and it's really starting to piss me and the other flatmates off. (well one of them, the other 2 don't really wash up much anyway!)

One of my closest oldest friends (who's also at uni with me and I'm moving in with next year) and I were planning a pirate party last week (for tomorrow) 'cos we haven't been out in ages and wanted a big get-together before Easter 'cos I have an exam after Easter that's gonna take up a huge amount of my time 'cos it's a prac. So we planned it last week, facebooked it, sorted out who was coming etc...and now she's randomly told me she may not even be coming!!!!!! I'm so fed up of being let down by these people who are supposed to be my closest friends :mad: She's got a new b/f (well, they've been together a few months now I think) 'cos her ex was a bastard and cheated on her [long story]. She's a bit of a doormat anyway and didn't really confront him about it either, much to the annoyance of me and our other best friend 'cos we really think she should've, but she's just not like that, which is fair enough. But every single time we'd want to go out when she was single after breaking up with her ex, she'd insist that we'd make it a girly day out and just us girls go out and she'd make like puking gestures any time we mentioned couples/she saw us or anyone else being couply. We understood that she didn't want to see any couples then, but we literally sacrificed so much time with our boyfriends so that we could cheer her up and make her feel better, and now she has a new boyfriend she NEVER has time for us.

When she's seeing him she won't see us. We haven't even been introduced to him properly, I've only met him 'cos I've bumped into them randomly when he's come to visit her at uni. I don't know if it's 'cos she's embarrassed of him/us but it's really starting to annoy me and my other best friend. (probably me more, 'cos I live in the same place as her and go to the same uni) I asked if she wanted to go to see a film in the cinema the other day and she was like oh no, I've promised Pete (her b/f) I'll go see that with him...so I was like oh, ok... and then later on in the week I mentioned on MSN about going to see another film (total chick flick) and she was like ummm, I was going to go see that with Pete 'cos I think he wants to see it. So basically it seems like he's made her promise to see every film in the cinema with him and only him. :| She won't make time for her friends anymore and doesn't even seem to care. She doesn't come out hardly at all now and is being so clingy to him it's unbelievable. I'm really glad she's happy but it's really annoying us that she's completely neglecting her best friends!

I understand that she wants to spend time with him but I never let my friendships slip that badly even when me and my b/f first started going out. So she's given every excuse under the sun about tomorrow like 'I dunno I'll see how I'm feeling...urgh I have period pains..I have an essay due in..I won't know anyone' (which is an absolute lie 'cos she knows at least 7 of the people coming and we're the ones organising the party anyway so it doesn't matter that she doesn't know EVERYONE!) I guarantee over Easter I won't see her at all even though we live really close 'cos she'll be too busy spending time with Pete!

Yeah. So that's what's pissed me off. That and the fact I have a ****ty self-evaluation assignment due in tomorrow that's taken me freakin' ages to do and counts for 15% of the year and I just want to hit the roof!!

And this guy on my course who's the flatmate of one of my friends is really annoying me. He just kept making fun of my welsh accent when we were watching the rugby the other day (he's english) and he's sooooo rude and obnoxious and stuck up his own arse!

My mum has promised me she'll ring at a certain time for the past 3 days (by text) and just hasn't rung...which is quite annoying 'cos I'd really like someone I'm close to to talk to at the moment, seeing as nobody is available! I assume she's just tired from work and has been falling asleep but it feels like I haven't spoken to her in forever and I have no credit to ring and can't get out to top up my phone atm 'cos I'm low on cash.

My boyfriend is being really unsupportive at the moment and just didn't even want to give me 5 mins of his time earlier when I asked if he could ring so we could talk and he just said he was 'busy.'

So....all in all, I am pretty ****ing pissed off!!!!! :mad:

Anyway, thanks if you've actually managed to read all this...I really don't know what I expect anyone to say..just needed to vent that. Thanks! :smile:

You need to focus on the positive things in life. Whilst all these small things can mount up, they seem more important than they really are. Everything will work out in the end.:smile:
It never rains it always pours. I think its just a combination of things that add together resulting in your annoyance. Its amazing how everything, even if it is something so miniscule its not worth worrying about, comes together, meaning that you are thoroughly fed up!

You probably will feel better tomorrow. :smile:
Thanks, I know...I just needed to rant that all out at someone...'cos I haven't been able to speak to anyone today and I don't want to randomly snap at people. I can just never sleep at uni (had trouble since day 1) so it doesn't help that I wake up feeling like I've been awake all night and then feel sleepy in lectures 'cos I can't manage to go to sleep. :frown:

Op, you're obv having a tough time atm... I think you need to talk to these people.. the ones who are taking you for granted by assuming you're going to cook then not even saying thankyou... i reckon you should tell them how it makes you feel when they treat you like that. Also, have you spoken to your friend with the new bf? Chances are that she doesn't realise she is acting like this.
I hope you feel a bit better soon
*hug* :smile:

When I get angry I vent it by listening to an adverse strong SOAD song - Or rant, you may have vented but to check here's the lyircs:

For

Sugar:

The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day,
Who can believe you,
Who can believe you,
Let your mother pray, (sugar)
I'm not there all the time you know
Some people, some people, some people,
Call it insane, yeah they call it insane, (sugar)
I play Russian roulette everyday, a man's sport,
With a bullet called life, yeah mama called life,(sugar)
You know that every time I try to go
Where I really want to be,
It's already where I am,
Cause I'm already there.(sugar)
The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day,
Who can believe you,
Who can believe you,
Let your mother pray, (sugar)
I got a gun the other day from Sako,
It's cute, small, fits right in my pocket,
Yeah, right in my pocket, (sugar)
My girl, you know, she lashes out at me sometimes,
And I just ****ing kick her, and then ooh baby,she's O.K.(sugar)
People are always chasing me down,
Trying to push my face to the ground,
Where all they really want to do,
Is suck out my mother ****ing brains, my brains (sugar).
The kombucha mushroom people,
Sitting around all day,
Who can believe you,
Who can believe you,
Let your mother pray
I sit, in my desolate room, no lights, no music,
Just anger,
I've killed everyone,
I'm away forever, but I'm feeling better,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
**** you, it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
**** you, it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
In the end it all goes away,
How do I feel,
What do I say,
In the end it all goes away,
In the end it all goes away,
In the end it all goes away,
In the end it all goes away,
In the end it all goes away.

And like in that amazing song - it all goes away - Tomorrow will be better - be optimistic, just because one day annoys you doesn't mean the next will - just carry on and don't give a **** about the past, it's happened, but it's gone so is hence a load of #

# - choose your four letter word

:smile:

good day
Thanks guys. Yeah, I have spoken to her about it a bit, but kind of in a jokey way if you get me? She gets kind of embarrassed about it when you mention it like that. Anyway, I'm fine and I'll be fine..I just needed to get all that out and tell someone 'cos I've literally had NO one to talk to all day! (or no one I feel comfortable telling all that to anyway. :smile:) Cheers guys.
thats funny

Yeah, and how about this one?

That's great,
it starts with an earthquake,
birds and snakes, an aeroplane -
Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn -
world serves its own needs,
regardless of your own needs.
Feed it up a knock,
speed,
grunt no,
strength no.
Ladder structure clatter with fear of height,
down height.
Wire in a fire,
represent the seven games
in a government for hire and a combat site.
Left her,
wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies
breathing down your neck.
Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop.
Look at that low plane!
Fine then.
Uh oh, overflow, population,
common group, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself.
World serves its own needs,
listen to your heart bleed.
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right - right.
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright
light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

Six o'clock - TV hour.
Don't get caught in foreign tower.
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
Lock him in uniform and book burning,
blood letting.
Every motive escalate.
Automotive incinerate.
Light a candle, light a motive.
Step down, step down. Watch a heel crush, crush.
Uh oh, this means no fear - cavalier.
Renegade and steer clear!
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

The other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide.
Mount St. Edelite.
Leonard Bernstein.
Leonid Breshnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right? Right.

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine...fine...

(It's time I had some time alone)


Basically, this all means, like, **** happens, but you feel fine.
hormones?
Everyone has their bad days and this certainly sounds like yours! I think you should discuss this properly with your mate though, I kinda know how it feels because my best mate got into his first proper relationship last year, and all of a sudden he had no time to go down the pub or just hang out, and I just basically told him straight that I felt he was pushing me aside; now he makes a lot more effort to see me when I'm back home.

Anyway, good to get the frustrations out!

Don't worry OP, we all have times like this, Murphy's Law just always comes in one huge annoying lot! It's happening to me right now, different problems (assignments due and some that are now late, things at work won't go right, car problems, low on cash, haven't seen bf in aaages, etc), but I know how you feel!

- About your assignments, just put your head down and try and get things done. I know I should be right now, instead of writing this, haha.
- About your friend, just talk to her about it. As someone mentioned, she may not realise what she's doing and that she's upsetting you.
- About your housemates laziness, sit them down and tell them it's not on. If you cook, then it's their responsibility to clear the table and wash the dishes, and that's that. It's not fair if you do all the work. Say that when you have to cook all the time and they don't acknowledge your effort and say thanks, it makes you feel unappreciated and it pisses you off (it definitely would me!), and they need to change their act, quick smart as you have assignments and a life too.
