    Did you know that "naive" is actually not listed in the dictionary?

    Don't feel too bad, I was (sadly) about to do the same...

    Just teasing.

    I feel naive a lot. What sucks is I feel embarassed to ask questions because people label me 'stupid american' (and say so) because I don't know things. Today I asked a bus driver if I was boarding a bus to the University and he YELLED at me, "Can't you READ?! The front of the bus SAYS where I'm going!! You're so fucking DUMB aren't you? Bloody Americans don't know anything."..... One: I went on the bus from the back and two: a few times that SAME BUS NUMBER changed routes at that stop and went somewhere else... so I asked.

    I felt like a fucking idiot and cried because I asked a simple question Now I'm afraid to ask questions at all because I don't want to look stupid. So sometimes I end up paying the wrong amount or not asking for help from people because I don't want to look stupid and be called on it.

    And yes, we're reporting that bus driver tonight to the city council.

    What an ass! Reminds me of the time I was in a store and, after waiting like 5 minutes for the clerck's attention, I asked if they had the nthing I wanted to buy, but I didn't get an answer. So I kept standing there and waiting for the answer. So my friend came over and asked if I found out, and I said "No" so my friend asked the sales clerck the same question and she said, in a rude voice "I already told HER the answer" and pointed her finger at me...

    what a bitch.. all she had to say was "yes" or "no"
