“Last day of the first week of school. Greg’s birthday. Sam’s
birthday too. So school.
I have friends in all my classes. Which is good. David and I
have been talking quite a lot lately. Over BBM, obviously. Not in person. I’m
not in his circle of friends. Not one of the cool kids. His friends make fun of
me. Not in a particularly mean way, just not in a way that includes me. I know
I annoy him. But I seem to like him.
Rose and Steve are being such jerks. Every time there is a
fight between Steve and I, she takes his side.”
I feel like the only thing that needs to be explained here is my attitude towards guys. I was painfully shy and super awkward. I also have this habit of admitting my feelings for the person I'm liking at the time. Which usually leads to awkwardness but does allow me to get over whichever dumb guy I like at the time. for the most part I've had pretty terrible taste in guys and most of them have been mean or just dorks. Which isn't meant as an insult because, hell, I'm the biggest dork of Dorkville. I think I've learned that just because a guy seems nice doesn't mean he is and just because a guy seems like he isn't nice doesn't mean that he isn't. People are never what they seem and I don't think I'll ever have the human mind completely or even halfway figured out. I think I've gotten better at spotting the good guys now. No spoilers though. You'll have to wait and see what happens on the guy front. And, damn, it's a hella bumpy ride.
E.H.
