1. When people tell me what to do 2. When people restrict me from doing something practical and normal, like go on the internet for a while, oder go on FanFiction WITHOUT HAVING THE PAGES RESTRICTED. 3. When people insist I have a problem when I don't. (Ex. Going on the computer too much, procrastinating on homework, etc. Everyone does it oder goes through it at some point!) 4. When someone lies to my face, oder denies doing something I KNOW he/she did. 5. When somebody assumes something about me before they get to know me. (Good oder bad.) 6. When a very minor event occurs, and everybody freaks out, even though it's not a big deal. 7. When something HUGE occurs, and nobody acts like its a big deal, when it obviousy is. 8. When someone attempts to check and reschedule my priorities for me. Ex. I have to do my homework BEFORE I go on the computer oder write. Why does this bother me? Because Schreiben isn't a hobby, IT'S MY LIFE. Schreiben doesn't have an on-and-off switch, like sports, where Du only play during practices oder games. Du write when Du FEEL like it, when Du feel Du have the need to write something down. Du can't say, "Oh, I'll just write when I'm done with my homework." THAT'S NOT HOW Schreiben WORKS. Du can't FORCE yourself to write. (Or I can't, anyway. I know several people who do, and I can't seem to understand HOW they do it.) Schreiben comes naturally, ideas come and go, and there's NO STOPPING Du and your imagination when ideas come. It's like someone saying, "Okay, Du have two options: Either Du can stop me from shooting your pet, oder Du can do your homework. I suggest Du do your homework." That's just... no. That's how important Schreiben is to some people. Schreiben a story is like creating a whole world, with characters that Du can control and play out. It's almost like an alternate universe - That's how strongly a writer feels about writing. IF Du don't write, Du feel like you're killing your characters, and the creativity inside you. There is no Sekunde option. Sometimes Du can write for hours on end, and sometimes nothing comes to you, and Du don't write in your story for two months. Because THAT'S HOW Schreiben WORKS. There is no time-limit oder other priorities when Du are creating your own world. :) 9. When I have to admit when I'm wrong. (It's a pride thing - don't ask.) 10. When people tell me I'm wrong oder correct something I say oder do. (Yes, I'm aware that this is VERY hypocritical, because I tend to correct people a lot. But it's just the way I feel.) It's not a big deal, though. I won't freak out if someone corrects me, it just annoys me. *Yes, I am aware that number six and seven contradict each other. But depending on the situation, Du can be one oder the other. Again, this may be hypocritical oder bias, but that's just how I feel.*
