How am I being embarrassing if I tell the whole world out loud about getting a whipping and missing prom? It hurt my feelings. When I complain aloud in public, my family says I embarrassed them. I look at it this way: I was the one who was hurt, and suffered, so I have a right to complain as much as I so choose, They can deal with the embarrasment, they didnt suffer, i did, so the least they can do is listen to me repeat the story over and over again. Thats not annoying, and they can handle the severe embarassment they say i caused. Being the eldest child, I've bared the worst of things only to come to miss my senior prom and get a whipping at 18. For that, I ought to be able to bully my little sisters if i want to (i'm too nice to do that), I missed my prom because my little sister said i was wmbarrassing her by being loud and telling my business. So DAMN what!! !, I suffered the hell, so who is she to talk about embarrassment?! HA! Why the hell should I waist my energy caring about how I make others feel when I bared the worst misfortunes?
