Just keep walking

The most annoying thing that happens in school in my opinion is when you're walking down the hallway and about two to three people stop right in the middle of the hall just to chat. Ugh! If you want to talk just move to the side, next to the wall and talk as much as your little heart desires. I'm just saying, by stopping in the middle of the hallway you're causing problems for the rest of the people that are behind you. Also what are you going to be able to say to the person in such a little amount of time? Give or take 6 seconds? Not much, so just keep walking and talk to that person at lunch or after school.

I'm trying to get to class or I'm trying to get somewhere. I don't need you to get in my way and slow me down. I have five minutes to get to class and I'm not wasting three of the five trying to get around you. So please just go.













I think of the hallway like a highway. Keep to the right in a some what organized line. If you need to go down a different hall then stop and look to make sure you're clear to go. That way you won't cause a jam and have people backed up in the hall. Don't stop randomly (break check) someone is bound to run into you causing a problem. Basically work the hallway like a highway don't cause a traffic jam just keep the flow going and everything will be okay. 

y u nu tlk 2 me?

People and their phones just annoy me. One, because I, at the moment, don't have one so I feel like they're rubbing theirs in my face when they use them. Two, all the dumb shortcuts people use when they text or when people use numbers in place of words. Just no. Stop. You look dumb and it's just annoying. I should not have to look at your message more than two times just to make sure I understand what you are trying to say.

Y do ppl txt lyk dis 4? I dnt undastand y u do dis. do u wnt me 2 h8 u? cuz u r askin 4 it. Hu made dis a thang & y did evry1 thnk it ws k? cn we jus txt da way we tlk? iz dat 2 mch 2 ask 4?

Alright that's enough of that. I just spent about twenty minutes on that small paragraph and I had to go to Google just to make sure I was doing it right. That's not okay. I had to do research on how to text incorrectly and the whole time I was getting confused and frustrated. You know maybe the people that text like that are just doing it to make people annoyed. I give you props if you could read that in one shot. I wrote the dang thing and had to read it about five times just to make sure it made sense.  People, you give me headaches, HEADACHES.

I most likely won't have a conversation with someone that types like that constantly. I can handle little things every now and then. I understand it's easier to type 'u', 'y', and 'r', but really it's not that difficult to write them out. Plus it makes it seem like you're not even trying to keep the conversation going. It's pointless to talk to someone that responds "nm, hbu?" just no I can't handle people. 

just give me some space.

Why do people feel the need to be right in your face when they speak? I promise I can hear you if you step back two feet. It's not like as soon as you are at a 3 foot radius from me a wall will come crashing down making it impossible for us to talk. Lets all take a moment to remember what bubble space is. Bubble space is this great thing that people have. It's not tangible, but everyone has a good idea of where the line is. It's basically an invisible circle that is placed around you marking off how close people should come to you.  

 I personally like how Edward Hall thinks and labels personal space. The diagram above goes from intimate space to public space. Intimate space is the zone for lovers, family, pets, and other things that you're close with. The personal space is a zone for conversations with friends or a group discussion. The social space is usually for people we just met and aren't familiar with like new acquaintances and newly formed groups. The public space is for when you are giving a speech or lecture, when you're presenting something in front of a large amount of people and need space for them to see you.

This is what we all want in life.
