The blog that started it all, or the drama? (June 27th)

Drama. A five letter word that causes catastrophe. Everyone talking about everyone else. Behind other people’s backs and to their faces. People who can’t own up to what they say behind other people’s backs. Confrontation. Anyone responsible for drama cannot handle confrontation.
I left high school 2 years ago. And I thought I was leaving the drama behind. But even throughout those 2 years of University, there were individuals still “stuck” in high school. Still so concerned about how everyone else played a role in their lives. People talking behind other people’s backs. People putting on an act so that you can gain friends or keep your friends.
Even now, working among “adults”, it’s just the same. I was so surprised when it came about. Drama. Ugh, even the word is disgusting. People five, ten years older than me. I didn’t think it was possible, these are adults I’m working with?
Then, what makes an individual an “adult”? It certainly isn’t their age, is it? Maturity? Does drama relate to age? I always believed that as I grew older or when I became an “adult”, that this juvenile drama would no longer exist.
Obviously, age isn’t everything.
And gender. Society tells us that females are susceptible to being more dramatic than males. But is this really true? From my experiences, males try harder to not be involved with the drama of everyday life. But by trying desperately hard, they get more involved than they realize.
So what does anyone know about drama, really?
