please judge this...


Keeping secrets is such a terrible thing, just as telling lies is; I know because I’m keeping one and I’m burning to tell you all about it. It’s a surprise i haven’t blown up yet. NICE WEEKEND everyone and a very hearty VALENTINE WISHES in advance to my brothers and sisters. How’s everyone this week? Me? I’m not sure how I’m feeling. Oh darn it! I am sure how I’m feeling! I am in a very lousy mood right now. A day I should have spent hopping from lectures to friends room and there to fast food joints to eat and chat filling the gaps between my teeth and sorting them out with tooth picks has just been loused up by  some school work .
What happened?  It all began last week, no but yes last week, when i had to write all over my proposal for my project work and been returned to make some few corrections and add up more informations....Gosh!!!! 
Ruth  is the sweetest thing ever and even in that  she is my good  friend let me  say precious baby on campus. she  always asked me how I was, and  I could in my power  be as supportive as possible for her.
What I have called the community to complain about is about what happened afterwards. Would you believe that  okay what happened was this. Ruth was feeling low as the  days goes by and feeling a little depressed  we all get that way sometimes  and I tried encouraging her, telling her how cute she was, and telling the tons of things she’s accomplished in such a short space of time on campus. We talked for over an hour and true to myself, I was as patient and supportive as ever. She calmed down, seemed to lighten up and I left it at that. She came back again, revisiting the same subject we’d just dealt with. Calmly, and still true to my nature, I considered that it might be prudent to try another approach and i tried to swing the mood to a more upbeat one. I talked about the funny incidents that had brightened my day, in the hope that it would cheer her up a little. Hmmmmmmmmm  GUESS !!!! What I got for myself was  trouble .it came as a serious snubbing and not checking up on me.  I accused myself of  being uncomfortable in unfamiliar territory and would use humour and jokes to get out of it.what wouid i have done? I ran!!!!!!!!!   I was so angry! Who was it that spent  a whole sleepless nights caring for her during her time of need? Who was it that kept talking until she  had nothing else to say? Who was it that… In short, I’m not going to provoke myself. I will be the big sister that i have always been.  I will ignore the fact that you,Ruth, completely soured my week and made me cancel all my appointments, kept me holed up in my room drown in anger and my lost appetite. But, I’ll be the big sister. I will forgive. I hold no grudge against you. I only ask that you, my people judge this matter and tell me what I have done wrong. Have a great week everyone, and to you too my dearest Ruth!!

  2. I REALLY THINK YOU SHOULDNT HAVE TO REFER HER TO THE TIME WHEN YOU WERE THERE FOR HER...SHE IS THE ONE IN CRISIS AND YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLERATED HER FOR THAT MOMENT UNTIL YOU FEEL SHE HAS GOTTEN OVER IT AND FIND A SUITABLE TIME TO PIN POINT WHAT YOU FEEL SHE DID WRONG.
