    for some reason, pudding cups always tasted better at the convention. maybe because that was my only source of joy. the pudding cup.

    There would have been no way for me to know what a Minimus was,....

    Field service - the very first time I was about 6 years old. The brother I was with had me give a little sermon at the door. The guy who answered was huge and yelled at me and it was all I could do not to cry. I absolutely hated it and would pray for rain every Saturday... at least no house-to-house.

    I hated the idea that we could not asociate with anyone on the outside, and close friendships within the hall were frowned upon, so we (three siblings and I) only had each other when we were growing up. To this day, none of us have any close friends.

    I hated being made to feel like a second-rate person just because I'm female.

    I hated the clicks that existed and made my family feel like outsiders.

    I hated having a talk on the ministry school.

    Come to think of it....I can't think of anything I did like about it all...

    I hated wearing the "kick me" sign on my ass and the lousy life I had for 15 years because of following the WT rules and regulations.

    I hated the boredom, mindless life-sucking boredom. I hated field service too, it was boring and pointless. Meetings were boring and pointless. At least cleaning the kingdom hall had a point to it and no one was preaching. Boring boring isn't that an island near Tahiti?

    Having to miss out on anything fun about school... clubs, sports, band (although my brother was allowed to do this, it was forbidden when I went through ).

    I was also terrified of knocking on a school friends door while out in service. When it did happen I wanted to sink through the porch.
