Might I Rant?

I don't want to be like the majority of my family: successful, rich, proud parents, and with nothing to say. Currently i've had to listen to my pretentious aunt talk about laying tile
In her "super artistic" bathroom and how some dude is hand-staining the wood to match the counter. She talked about how technology is affecting kids these days and how her POS doesn't get all that fancy stuff...okay, just go spend your husband's money on your fancy tile. My uncle blabbered about his golden child going to Mexico to build homes, which is great, but that was in leu of my mom trying to talk about one of her kids achievements. My cousins somehow manage to outdo us and they don't even have to be here to do so. My brother is making a music video for Vans shoes and to counter that, my aunt mentioned her rich neighbors who self-built a very successful recording studio in their backyard. If you can't tell, i'm slightly annoyed. BUT my aunt feels bad about the starving people in some African country because they don't have any training facilities for Olympians and also... They have no food. She's so sentimental. I guess i should say that i love my other aunt and my other uncle (one from each other couple) because they are successful and humble. They are engaging. They actually give a shit about people and don't pretend that saying the word "shit" on facebook is the worst thing a child could do. I don't want to be pretentious, looking forward to champagne at a gathering instead of the company that will be held. People who are full of air and nothing creative or original in their bodies. They are products of their monetary success. See, i might be a waitress or barista for a little longer than i would please to be, but at least i know how to create a wonderful life around things that i love that are true and vivid instead of one that could collapse if the caviar is left out too long or if the house cleaner missed a spot, therefore rendering your guest bathroom as an "embarrassment". Lay your fancy tiles, i'm just gonna lay my tracks in this life if that's okay with you people.
