Okay, so much has happened since the Yelp event review below.
I find it really amusing that people read this journal and feel they can have some sort of opinion about what I put on here. It's my journal and it's my opinion. It's also my perspective on everything. Yelp was supposed to be a place where people converge and review restaurants, businesses etc, as objectively as possible. So we review places and by reviewing places we should also review ourselves, our events, and sometimes the review hurts for others and so it should hurt for us too.
Yes, I attended the event and yes it was super boring. Standing in line for drinks is not my idea of fun, having people take pictures "around" me or over me is not my idea of fun. I just felt like maybe there was something in my teeth so they didn't want me captured with their wonderful Yelp cam. It was truly awful. I didn't write them about it, I wrote it on my trusty blog. And reading this you can tell I have had this blog for a very long time and many people have fallen under the bus in this blog, friends, boyfriends, prospective employers, present employers, and this time it's Yelp. I never explain my actions or my writing I just do it. That's what writing is about, like critics if they are not feeling your movie, they just write about it. You might hate it. I know I've written works of fiction that have not been so appreciated but I have tolerated it. And to say I am a bitch...please, what is this 6th grade? People seem to forget that I have been writing for a long time, I went to an all girls boarding school, with cattiness at its best, so I know that in expressing myself like every artist that it is not a popularity contest. It is what it is...if you choose not to agree with me so be it, if I am a bitch to you so be it too. Last time I checked I am not running for President so there's no need for me to want to be "popular" or seek popularity. I just find it perplexing that in an event where there are so many people that you would choose to take pictures of the same 'ole people that you snapped at the last event and the last one and the one before that. That is just so 6th grade to me.
However, this was not meant to be an explanation, it was meant to be a statement, to all those who've come across this blog and have chosen to read about my life, which I have let them read about because that's what writers do, we express in whatever way possible, if not we would be stifled. The fact that you are discussing me makes me feel like a celebrity, like Angelina during her "husband snatcher" days.
So to Yelp, it's been fun. I am elitist but I don't want to be your type of Elite. And if you come across this blog and choose to hate, you are only making me more popular than I need to be (in your opinion).
