Epilepsy, hm whut?

So, what have I been up to these past few days.

Mostly ranting.

And I’m pretty sure it annoys the hell out of the people living with me but I couldn’t care less right now. I might sound like some spoiled kid but all I want now, is to freaking be home.

Lately, it seems some of my superiors (HR bitch included) decided it would be rather appropriate be make sure I leave this country with one idea in mind: to never work ever again in France. And as much as it saddens me,  they kinda succeeded.

Apart from making me feel like I’m just a bouche-trou and making me do all the taks the hotel would normally hire someone else to do (and that are absolutely not linked to my internship) I was told this:

” I hate your attitude.”

One day, I was working at the boutique (remember the place that sells branded baby clothes where there’s like 1 client per hour and if I’m lucky, I’ll be able to make a sale?) and after I was done cleaning the mess the HR made during a whole week, I sat and  I was starring at something random in front of me. That’s when the HR entered and said that to me. I was seriously WTF. I spend 2 to 4 days a week cleaning after her, doing her copies, getting her coffee/drinks and that’s what I get for helping out? Geez go fuck yourself !

” It’s your fault if you have epilepsy”

I was about to leave work the other day when one my superior told me I had been day dreaming a lot that day. I then said that I wasn’t and that I didn’t recall daydreaming at all. She then accused me of  being lazy and not working properly so I apologized and said that lately I’ve been a bit tired so maybe it was my epilepsy triggering absences. Well apparently, it’s my fault that my brain is weird and randomly decides to send wrong signals. After all, I’m all making this up:

Fucking idiots.

Do you tell a person who has cancer it’s his fault? Nope.

Do you tell a person who will spend all his like in a wheelchair that he deserves it? Nope.

Do you tell a blind person that he’s not missing a lot anyway? Nope

Then why do you tell an epileptic it’s his/her fault for being born with a brain defect? I’m not retarded, I just have a little condition. Sure there are things I can’t really do… but that’s up to me. I know my limit better then anyone (proof is above since I tested it in March) Sooo… What is so wrong with people? It’s out of curiosity? I don’t think so.

I faced a girl in my class this year who kept making epilepsy jokes on purpose in front of the class. One time it got so bad that a teacher who didn’t like me that much took my side as well as the rest of the whole class to make it stop. I thought the whole situation was ridiculous. When she later apologized, I showed her my meds and explained her the tests I had done. That thought her a lesson.

And to finish off with my epilepsy lecture, here’s a list of famous people who were epileptic.

• Jules César
• Alexandre le Grand
• Agatha Christie
• Edward Lear
• Socrate
• Jeanne d’Arc
• Harriet Tubman
• Ludwig van Beethoven
• Napoléon Bonaparte
• Vincent Van Gogh
• Charles Dickens
• Richard Burton
• Alfred Nobel
• Gary Howatt
• and many more

So WE ARE FUCKING COOLER THEN YOU PEOPLE WITH NORMAL BRAINS HAHAHAHA.

Sorry I think I got carried away.

Whenever someone goes and say something so stoopid about epilepsy, it enrages me. Maybe I should teach in high school what really is epilepsy and that we’re no possessed (yeah I got asked that once)

anyway, if you feel like reading more facts and information about epilepsy, check out Epilepsy Canada.

I wanted to talk about something else… but I’ll guess I’ll write it some other day XD

Love you people <3
