Limit between Confidence and boastfulness


Ugh...In a way I've already had enough with Blue, a guy who's also in the swimming team with me. He just gets in my nerves all the time! He keeps on talking about his grades and how good he is. Well even though that is true or not, don't you think it's plain boastfulness that you show off you're grades? Even his swimming! I admit he's a great swimmer but he doesn't have to rub it in.

Anyway, what really triggered me was when he and I were in the same line. Then he kept on saying that I should move to the other line?! I was really annoyed. He kept on saying that this was his favorite line and that only "CHAMPIONS" were allowed to swim in that line. Excuse me? "champions"?? I haven't even seen you in a real competition and you already call yourself a "champion"? I admit that he's a lot better than me. That I respect and admit that fact... but rubbing it in?? Huh....sometimes his jokes really get into my nerves.

Yet....despite that I was surprised that when I asked for 3 pesos he gave me 3 pesos. Sadly before when he asked for even just 1 peso I refused to give him. He even meantioned it was from their ********. Ugh....I'm so ashamed...Lesson Learned: No matter how annoying a person might be he/she still and will always have a good side.
