Smokers

I don't really mind smokers, however, there are things I dislike about some of the quitters. Now, for quitters, there are the quitters that actually quit and then there are the quitters that "have been trying to quit". Now, the smokers that actually quit, I like these people, they are strong, willful individuals and they should be applauded for quitting. The people who don't actually quit, should just realize they can't quit and stop taking out everything on non-smokers. I really hate this, if you want to quit, just do it. Now there are people who say,"You don't really know what they go through unless you are a smoker." So, you expect me to feel sorry for someone that got addicted to smoking a long time ago and didn't have the willpower to say no? I'm sorry, I just think that's unfair to those that have said no. 

Restaurants

I really like eating at restaurants. It's a very nice change from eating in the same old dining room all the time. However, there are some restaurants have some annoyances. Firstly there are the restaurants that feel the need to sing out of key and twisted versions of "Happy Birthday", I understand some people like it, but to me it's very embarrassing. Another thing is when there are people or children that are doing something obnoxious, it's very distracting and annoying. Finally, there are the things that are just incomplete, such as, when my mother asked for iced coffee and they brought a warm coffee and a cup of ice. That's not really iced coffee to me. I think there should be a system for paying at restaurants. Screaming child in the next booth, minus four dollars, incorrect orders, minus five dollars. This system would be so awesome, and it would make the dining experience you had worth as much as you paid. 

Bands

What I find strange about certain people is what they assume a band is like by their name. Take for instance, Disturbed. They are a religious band which focuses on things like: slavery, government choices, and other patriotic topics; yet because of the name people assume,"Oh that music's satanic or disturbing (no pun intended). This very much goes along with the saying,"don't judge a book by it's cover." Now, don't get me wrong, you are all entitled to listen to whatever you want, but don't assume that the music or the people that listen to it are satanic or evil and what not.

Family Heirloom

Sadly, there is not family heirloom that runs in my family. This is only to my current knowledge; I have no idea what's in store for the future. I do however have a family tradition that's passed down. It's organizing a "Family Picnic". We've had one every year and soon, my sister and I will have to be organizing it.
