Title: I cried because some high schooler insulted me at a soup place -Writer: Guest It's exactly what the title says. I'm 22 and retaking my college entrance exams, okay? I'm working hard, balancing a part-time job and studying. But the neighborhood ladies have already branded me as 'that girl who's still studying.' Every time I see them, they give me backhanded compliments like "Keep working hard~" or "It's okay if you don't get into college as long as you marry well~" It was so bad today that I went to the gukbap place feeling super depressed. The lady who runs it really likes me, so I go there often. I was eating my pork soup when I realized even the high schoolers know who I am now. They know me as the person who still hasn't gotten into college. These two high school boys next to me kept staring at me and laughing among themselves!! I was so annoyed that I glared at them, but they just ignored me! But then I heard what they were saying, and it was even worse! "Isn't that loser still unemployed and failing her exams? Man, I'm never gonna live like that," they said!!; But it hit so close to home, and since I know I'm not exactly winning at life right now, I felt so hurt!! I'm not exactly mentally tough, you know? I felt like I was going to burst into tears. So now I'm sitting here eating with my eyes full of tears. What do I do, seriously? T_T ㄴAnonymous: OP is so cute lol ㄴAnonymous: Is that high schooler handsome? ㄴWriter: Just one of them is a little bit handsome. ㄴAnonymous: It's okay, I'm a job seeker so I totally understand that feeling. ㄴAnonymous: Are you still at the restaurant? ㄴWriter: Yes!! But the tears are starting to go away a bit now.
