Every year I grow more and feel I learn more how to treat myself and other people. How to open doors for others, let someone with 2 items go ahead of me in line, or just plain be nice to people! Why can’t other people wake up and learn how to have common courtesy!!! Yes, again it goes back to many, many blogs ago….their parents needed to spank them more and yes of course they need JESUS!!!!!!!! For example, you’re at the gym on the stairs and all of sudden you smell the foul death of someone’s intestines about to knock you out….or a girl on the phone cuts you off walking into starbucks and then allows the door to slam in your face..(all BEFORE my latte.. are you f@#$in crazy)…or when a ballroom dancer who thinks he’s competing for the “world’s best dancer in tight pants” award … is prancing around the studio we have rented out for our “quince kids”! uggghhhhh People get a clue!! I don’t get it!! I really don’t!
I am so grateful to my parents for so many things but especially for teaching me manners and how to be polite! People tell me I need to write a book, but my mom is the one who should write a book. “Manners according to KIKA” or “Act Ladylike” or “Just don’t act like an A$$HOLE!!!!” are some of a few titles that come to mind. As a child, I remember hearing….”Vanessa Michelle don’t touch that…..say hello and it’s nice to meet you…..don’t raise your voice….sit there and act like a lady…..DON’T touch that….Always say please and thank you!!!” Well, thank you mom for my manners and my occasional acts of ladylike behavior! I really do appreciate it….and I sincerely apologize for all of the “eye rolls” and “sucking of my teeth”. I was a kid…you can’t blame me…hahahah….ok but now I will really stop my “eye rolls” I AM kind of old and know better!
SO who or what pissed me off now….hhahahahha…..well this dancer I spoke of earlier….ding ding ding….he’s the winner!!!!! I think what boggles my mind is the amount of disrespect others have for other humans. So allow me to set this up….Michael and I are choreographing a quincenera and the kids are two weeks away. FYI…they’re doing an amazing job..I’m so proud of them!!!! We rented a place to rehearse, which looks like a dance studio/restaurant (I was just as confused) but a great space! Well apparently “Jean Claude Jose Roberto King of the ballroom” rehearses there whenever he wants. Well JCJR…when a group of 14 kids…parents…and choreographers are trying to utilize the space for something very important…..MOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ask the people (that seem to be in charge) to ask him to move….because he is now dancing in and out of the children and his prancing is getting a little distracting! They tell ME to tell him….HAHHAHAH BIG mistake….So as if it’s not obvious how utterly ridiculous this entire situation is …..I respectfully ask him to move…..well apparently I just asked the GOD of all dancing to move it. He gave me the most hideous…disrespectful face I’ve ever seen (and in my world that’s pretty bad). I have to breathe because there are 14 children staring at me…wondering what’s going to happen next. I kindly (I use that word loosely) tell him…you need to move out of here…my kids need to focus!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!! Well, against his will, he left! Now this may be asking too much of this society, but why do I have to tell “twinkle toes” to leave? Why do I have to demand an obvious situation to get out? Why can’t we just all have kindness and respect for each other??!!!! If Michael and I were rehearsing in a space we didn’t pay for and people just walked in who did pay…..we would OBVIOUSLY leave with no question! People just don’t care!!
I’m here to tell you to CARE!!!! Be nice to each other….Do things for other people…..Have MANNERS!!!!!!!! We should all strive to do something nice for someone else on a daily basis. That’s my rant for the day! J Peace…love….puppies…and cupcakes!!!!!
