Day 1: Ten things you want to say to ten different people right now.
1. You are, by far, the most pretentious bus driver I have ever encountered. I hate you so much for making me feel bad for something I didn't even do, and I hope to God that I never have to see you again. Not because I'd be tempted to hurt you, though, but because I'd probably just smile and thank you like I do with all bus drivers. And the irony will kill me.
2. Hi! I see you get on my bus sometimes. Do you remember me? I'm Vincent. You got me in trouble in grade 3 for making you feel left out. To be fair, you pushed my friend onto gravel, which was REALLY painful for an eight year old. We should catch up and pretend like we care about each others respective lives, then proceed to spend every following chance encounter trying to avoid eye contact to avoid having to do it again.
3. Persnickety isn't a real insult, okay? There was no reason for you, at the age of twelve, to start crying. P.S., I said sorry because the teacher told me to. I was not sorry. You were being a real prick. Feel free to tear up now.
4. You are of average height. When I call you short, I mean relative to me.
5. Do you still have that friendship necklace I gave you? I'm sorry, I lost my half. Secretly, I feel like you somehow know that and that's the reason we don't speak anymore.
6. I am actually really sad that after next week, we're probably never going to speak again.
7. Okay, here's the thing. I am currently speaking with someone. If you want to speak with them, you have to wait patiently until you can interject. It is not okay to start chanting their name to get their attention three seconds into the conversation. I obviously have more to say than I can possibly blurt in a three second time period, thank you very much.
8. No, I did not say nor indicate you could take my french fries. If you had asked politely, that would have been a different story. Your entitlement is driving me up the wall.
9. I was the one who stole your miniature bunny figurine in grade one. It's the only physical object I've ever stolen ever, and it still keeps me up at night sometimes. I sent you a letter in grade seven to apologize for it but I think you moved.
10. I was the one who was chewing all the classroom pencils. No, I wasn't food deprived. I just really enjoyed doing it right under your nose, and not getting caught because you loved me so much you didn't bother to watch for me. If it makes you feel any better, all the germs I ingested made me sick like six times that year.Whoops.

  2. If I had something nice to say to someone, I would have said it to them. :P
