#sugarenia story time

[sugaroto]

Imagine you to Italy for a school trip and you get a warning from the police in the first, like, 3 hours-

Couldn't be my school haha

[sugaroto]

I think I... kind of made some kids at school believe I'm adopted

So- a friend of mine turned 18 a while ago and he made a joke that as a legal adult he could adopt some of us

And today this was brought up again, adoption and all

And at some point I'm like... oh I'm having flashbacks

Of what?

I was in an orphanage once. ITS NOT WHAT YOU THINK

And then I said "Just to clarify I'm not adopted"

"Keep telling yourself that"

Like.... NOOOOOOOO

And the thing is there were 3 kids there that I don't know, like I just learned the one's name today and I have no idea what the boy's name is

Only my best friend understood what I was talking about

[sugaroto]

I've noticed recently that when I talk my friends aren't interested in what I have to say so I will shut up forever now

[sugaroto]

Years ago when I was in middle school I was in a movie club in which we would watch movies and then discuss them

And at some point we watched a movie where the main character had autism

When it ended the teacher asked us if we knew/had autistic persons in our life etc, you know the experience ✨

Now, my friend, who I used to be best friends with for many years (we now don't talk anymore but that's irrelevant) has a twin autistic brother

By the end of the movie she was obviously touched

I don't remember whether she was crying or holding back tears

But anyway

The teacher asks, "Do you know any autistic persons?"

Some say their cousins, their uncles etc and sharing experiences they had together or something

And this dude

"[Name]'s brother. We were in the same school"

Like. The audacity

I was so mad at him

Like my friend was obviously unwell and your experience with autistic people was her brother?

DUDE WAS NOT EVEN IN THE SAME CLASS AS US

Like we were what? 50 people in there? The 25 went to the same school, 15 or less in the same class

(forgot to clarify, her brother was in the same class with us throughout primary school and then went to a special school)

So like, half the people there knew about her brother, the half of the half had him as a classmate for 6 years and this dude who was in the ΣΤ2 class was like yes i know autistic people. Her brother

Like dude?? I sat with him daily on the bus for years when she had ολοήμερο and I wouldn't point him as an example he probably never even talked to him

Anyway the teacher then turned to my friend and asked if she wanted to share with the class, so she said a few things, I don't remember much, probably "yes, my twin brother is autistic, it's hard" or something at this point I think I just held her hand, or hugged her cause she was tearing up

But to this day I'm still mad at this random dude

25 people shared your experience of having him as a school mate, she shared the experience of being his twin you're not the same it's not your story to tell

People back in the day really did swap babies the same way I swapped stickers in primary school lol

Fr though story time

So great grandma A had like 7-8 kids and her bestie was like "A you have so many kids, and I have none. You don't need all of those why not give me one?" And great grandma A was like "yeh sure take the 5 year old baby. I have too many"

And my grandpa the one and oldest son who was around 13 was like NO YOURE NOT GIVING MY BABY SISTER AWAY

So after the whole adoption had been done he went and kidnapped the sister and brought her back home

They gave her back to the adoptive parents

He kidnapped her again

They gave her back

Eventually he realized there wasn't much he could do and gave up but forever felt guilty about it

Meanwhile baby sister never questioned why her name on the papers was M but everybody called her D she didn't know she was adopted and just assumed she had 2 names

It's a small village and they grew up as friends or something since the parents were already friends etc

People at school were calling her adopted but she thought it was just bullying or something

And when they were like 30-40 they were all dining together (maybe it was Christmas or something cause it was a big gathering from what I understood?) Or some celebration

And my drunk grandpa still feeling guilty about it held her hand at some point since she was sitting next to him

She thought it was weird, why was the priest and childhood friend holding her hand, he was married, she was married, they both had their families, that was a weird behavior

So she pulled her hand back thinking he was drunk and flirting

But he was drunk and feeling guilty for 30 years so he grabbed her hand again and said "you won't pull your hand back, because in our veins flows the same blood" (δεν θα τ��αβάς το χέρι σου από μένα, γιατί στις φλέβες μας ρέει το ίδιο αιμα) ...or wait, I think he said you're not supposed to be scared of me? Something like that

And that's how she learned she was adopted in a room full of people that probably knew and I think they told me she then run away from that house to find her adoptive parents (I assume) and ask for answers

And at some point my mom and her son were in school like "guess we're cousins now"

[sugaroto]

For a second I thought "Prometheus and Epimetheus as Philip and Caleb"

Like why?😭

If anything they remind me of Lolos and Frenimos from the story my grandma used to tell me when I was little

[sugaroto]

A beggar asked us for money yesterday and she started by calling my mom such a nice woman and wishing me to get married to a rich man

Like, yeah, thanks, kinda wish I could pass my exams but sure, a sugar hubby would solve most of my problems

But when the woman turned around my mom was like "you should've told her you'll marry a woman to see her reaction"

I'm not even out zhdhdhd

The power of the mothers-

So- when summer started my mom gave me my gloves which she had washed and told me to take them so I wouldn't lose them and start looking for then once it started being cold again (* they're finger-less and I was wearing them daily from like October- April)

So I put them in a box on my desk and kept them there-

But when I opened the box a few weeks ago cause my hands started getting cold I only found one, and anyways I put it in my bag and said I'll find the other some time later cause it has to be somewhere around here

Long story short I didn't found the other glove but in a few hours we're leaving with the ship and it'll be like 3am and that's fucking cold

So I started looking for it again

But I didn't want to ask my mom all this time cause she said "don't lose them"

But I was like:

-mom?

-....

-hey *searching into the drawer with my underwears*

-what?

-have you seen- Holy shit you found it

I know for a fact I didn't put it there... but the power of mothership helped me find it

[sugaroto]

I had tutoring class and our teacher said something and my friend repeated it in a way as if she had said something funny and we just stared at her like "?Huh what's going on?" And then she was like nothing, it's something we say in our friend group, well mostly in my class

And anyways she explained and then kinda scolded me for not understanding the joke like "where have you been Sugar? You're not paying attention to the inside jokes" or something like that...

I mean.... has she realized I don't spend that much time with the group anymore?

Like, today I was trying to convince my (other) friend she was an angel, I wasn't paying attention to an inside joke of the '2 class

I mean ok I guess the joke was about the head teacher I could have heard it somewhere, I think I may have, I'm not sure, but the way she was like "You're not paying attention lately"

I mean, I don't hang out with all of them lately as I used to

And not in a bad way, like they didn't push me away or we had a fight, I just have been hanging out with 3 other kids and we kinda formed our own group I guess? At least 2 of them weren't friends with my other friends so we kinda... split?

Sometimes we might all hang around together, but not -together- you know what I mean?

I mean, I noticed I'm not that close with the friends I had last year, and I came closer with other people, have they not realized I drifted apart ?

[sugaroto]

I'm getting ready for the parade and my Pantyhose (is that what you call them in English? I thought it was leggings, anyways I'm trusting Google translate rn) tore up

Those are stupid why are people wearing them jsnesjsj

[sugaroto]

I was in the dentist today, and when we were done and we were at the reception for the next appointment, the lady there asked me what grade I'm gonna be now (School starts on Monday)

And im like "Τρίτη Λυκείου" (3rd year of high school- the last class)

And I'm telling you-

I saw death in her eyes

For a minute I got scared- like I thought she was mad at me- or she didn't hear me

She had pain in her eyes guys

And then she just sighed and asked me what my schedule is so she can make my next appointment

Apparently, according to my mom, her son is the same age as me... so she gets it

But I'm telling you

👁fear👁

Some weeks ago I had to do something I didn't want to do and my mom and aunts were kinda peer pressuring me into it by telling me that "I'm a grown woman and need to be more independent and to be for myself without my mom always being there for me" etc etc

And you know right then, I thought

What if

I came out to them? Tell them I'm bisexual, that I like girls too

What would they say? Would they suddenly tell me that I'm just a kid and too young to know something like that and that it's just a phase?

How would they have reacted? Would I still be considered "independent grown woman?" Or would my aunt cover my cousin's ears and tell me I'm young?

Exam 1 done✔

I wrote ancient Greek today, damn those were my first exams after like 2 years

Also- wtf is wrong with my school?

First of all there was no bus? Wtf? The junior high school bus stopped and took us and left us to another bud stop for our supposed to be bus to come and get us, also like not all of us- half of my friends were in a completely different bus that I don't even know what it was for

Secondly- apparently our school doesn't have many rooms and bc in exams you need to sit alone so you won't cheat they thought the perfect idea was putting kids from diferent classes together

In my class there were kids of my year sitting with kids one year older

But because of the paths, we were writing Ancient Greek, Physics and History in that room like wtf

Do you know how long the explaining process was? First my teacher comes in and explains history and then he left and I'm like wtf? What about ancient Greek? And then the physics teacher came in and started explaining- meanwhile I'm trying to read and understand a stupid passage by Aristotle so I can compare it with Lysia's passage and write 2 paragraphs about it

And then my teacher came back like yeah oh you write ancient Greek too in here, and explained- like dude too late- I already did the 1st exercise- take my too many words or leave it-

And the 3rd years?(students one year older than us) they wouldn't shut the fuck up

"Hehe yeah we're getting 20! At 100🤪"

"How many points do I get for that exercise?" "3" "REALLY? I GET A WHOLE 3? PERFECT! OK IM DONE"

"Can I sleep? I want to sleep"

2nd year: "Can I have one more page?"

3rd year: "Omg I can't believe it I'm sitting next to someone who's smart..."

"Can I leave? In done"

Teacher: "you can leave at 9:30"

Student: "what about 9:25?"

Teacher: "I'll let you leave at 9:27, are you done making deals now?"

*later*

"Miss... it's 9:26"

"What?"

"You said we can leave 9:27"

"🙄😒"

They were so loud 🤦‍♀️😤 like stfu and the teachers were like "kids stop, there are also 2nd years writing in here" like yeah wow no shit, this is literally my classroom for the last 2 years if anyone is a guest it's them

Also ffs my chair wasn't a normal one- it was one of those that open and close? And the desk was probably broken bc it kept making creaking sounds🤦‍♀️

How tf am I supposed to concentrate,

This is gonna happen for the next week and 3 days too🥲
