I did this random columnist search and I found you. I was wondering whether you can help me, since nobody else will.
I'm in an advanced choir in New York. Every summer, we take a music camp run by our conductor in the Catskills. Last year I was a noob and I'd skipped a year in the previous level, so I was the youngest. I was 12 and I loved it. Everyone hated me for it but I didn't really care cuz I was a cocky little kid and I thought they were just evil jealous freaks. Now I'm 13, all the noobs are cumin in and they're all my age (cuz I skipped a year) and i HATE them!!! Gaaahhh! They're all so preppy preppy preppy and annoying and blonde and really immature. They don't deserve to be here! They aren't advanced enough!!! The choir is a very special privilege for only the best! Oh god now I'M the evil jealous freak! I know it sounds like I'm whining and bitching and complaining but I'm not. Worse is I feel guilty because I'm so prejudiced and there's nothing I can do about it. i'm nice to them because if I'm not i'll get in trouble, but I still can't shake my feelings. What can I do? Heeeeeelp!!!! sorry it's so long but I'm really desperate!!!
I can COMPLETELY 100% undeRstand youR annoyance and angeR, and you have eveRy Right to feel that way. But if it is such an advanced choiR, how did they make it in??? Do you even know if they can actually sing well enough foR youR choiR oR not?? Maybe they can?? I wouldn't know, since I'm not theRe, but I highly doubt a choiR teacheR would puRposely fuck up his gRoup, ya know??
Saddly, theRe's Really nothing you can do to change things. Obviously youR choiR teacheR has made up his mind, and talking to him won't change things. I guess the only thing to do is sit and ignoRe them. No one says you have to become fRiends with these bitches, but you ceRtainly can not MAKE them change, ya know?? SoRRie if this wasn't what you wanted to heaR, tRuth is.. theRe just isn't much you can do about it. =/ SoRRie, Kiddo. [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
