ok hey, I have this really annoying cousin that thinks she's WAY better than everyone else. especially me.
ex: ok, like, whenever i get a bf and bring him over to the house to meet my mom or whatever, she'll constantly flirt with him and try to get him alone and certain stuff like that, just to boost her ego and pretty much show me that she can get any guy i can.
another ex: ok, so...we both sing, which is REALLY bad 'cause she always gets pissed if anyone says i sing better. like one day, me and her were sitting on my bed talking and her mom comes in and says "hey can you sing me a song" so of course, she leaps for the chance and starts singing and as soon as she does, her mom was like, "no marisa, i was talking to Nikki. maybe you can sing backup" and almost instantly (she needed a few seconds to let the shock blow over) she says " THERE IS NO WAY IM SINGING BACKUP FOR ANYONE!!!! ESPECIALLY NOT HER!!!!"
and she's always bragging about herself in some way like " omigod!!! Im like, sooo gonna start my own band and get all these super hott emo guys to be in it and of course, IM gonna be the lead singer!!! hahaha!!!" and then she calls herself fat just to hear people say shes skinny. and frankly, im just getting absolutely sick of it!!! Is there ANY way possible i can prove that she's normal, just like everyone else??? she's really getting on my nerves!!
sincerely,
Nikki

Good luck [ juhi's advice column | Ask juhi A Question ]
orphans answered Friday May 11 2007, 8:21 am: yep, the answer below me is right. just wait and watch untill she matures, and then people will make her cry and what not, and you'll be able to sit back and watch her cry in a little corner, misserebly...it'll be fun, because like, it will :D..........either that, or approach her, and be all "yo, why be a bitch for? get an effin life hoe!" or something along the lines....hope i helped :D [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]

The real world will knock her off her high horse once she enters it. The adult world can be very cold and cruel, leaving the Average Joe to accept the fact that they are merely average like 99.4% of the people inhabiting the planet.
