Sasparilla


Sooo.... I'm a jerk. yep. So most of you know that i am a pretty sarcastic and sassy person. But lately I've been noticing it alot more than usual. I don't know if it's because it is getting more intense and dominant in my personality, or if it's just because i've noticed more people have been pointing it out to me. Or both. But regardless of the why's and how's, it's true. I shall give an example. So when i was doing Sleepy Hollow there was a guy there that came like every night and volunteered with the harvest festival and stuff, and i talked to him a few times. And yesterday when i was at Wal Mart in Orem i saw him with a couple other guys. I was in the cereal isle contemplating which cereal would most please my palate and I looked over and saw him and was like "Is that that one kid from Sleepy Hollow?" (I said that in my head, not out loud. I think.) and i stood there wondering if I should say something or not. So while i was fighting this battle in my head i overheard a part of their conversation. This part has nothing to do with the fact that i am a jerk, but i thought it was funny so i'm gonna tell you about it. The kid i knew was showing some oatmeal to his fellow friends and he said something like "Dude this is good stuff. See look it says '100 years of excellence' on the box." and then they proceeded to discuss why they should or should not get this particular oatmeal. Then the kid said "well i don't know why they put that on the box, who would want to buy oatmeal that is a hundred years old." i thought it was freaking hilarious and busted up laughing to myself. So i decided i had stood there staring into the abyss for long enough. So i went up to the Sleepy Hollow/oatmeal kid and was like "Hey, weren't you at Sleepy Hollow?" and he was like "yeah.... i was.... uh.... were you in it?" and i said yes and he said "oh yeah! i talked to you a few times huh?" again i responded in the affirmative and he mumbled something about not recognizing me without my costume and my hair up and what not. So we started talking and he introduced me to his friends (one ended up being his brother). So his brother was like "oh I went to Sleepy Hollow too! Who were you again?" and oatmeal kid was like "she was in the choir" and i was like "yep, i was in the choir, my name was Beverly." And then the other dude was like "yeah, I didn't go to Sleepy Hollow, I have no connections at all..." and this is where the sassy me busted out. I was like "oh really? So then why are you even talking right now. Just shut up." Poor sap. He was just standing there minding his own business and the freaking sassy-sasserton had to come and pounce on him. So i realized what i said was freaking so mean and i was like "oh i'm sorry! i don't even know you and i'm being a jerk!! i didn't mean that, i'm sorry." and his friends were laughing at him and he's like "ah i can take it." So that's pretty much the end of my example. But i'm gonna finish the story anyway. So we kept talking and then the brother was like "So, Beverly, are you on facebook?" and i laughed and in my head i was like oh that was clever, he used my character name. But then i realized that he probably thought that was my real name, and i was like sick! my name is not Beverly! (once again, in my head. No offense to anyone named Beverly.) And i said my name is Aubrey. The end. So the moral of the story is I am a sass. But i decided that is probably not going to change anytime soon, mostly because that's who i am. and i don't really care. so deal with it. And my name is Aubrey, not Beverly. That's the other part of the moral. Peace out

I think both my sisters need to think before they speak. Ok kidding. But sarcasm can sometimes be a bad thing. I need to ask Chelsea about a talk that she knows that talks about sarcasm...hmmmm...Her grandma would always get ticked off if Chels ever said anything sarcastic.
