Dreams.
- Ew, Too much tongue
- Woah, what are you doing in my dream?
- Did I just do that?
- Sub-conscious! *Cher from clueless voice*

C.R.U.S.H
Okay, let me relax and think this over. There must be something other than the obvious that attracts me to him. This is what happens when I get a crush. When the person isn't around, I'm like ew. I don't like him at all. Then I'll see him and that strange fizzling thing happens in my stomach and I'm all like where the hell did that come from? And then he'll disappear from my sight and I'll be like OMG where did he go? Did he leave? He didn't even say bye! Wait, why do I care? He's not even a factor in my day! Ugh. And then BOOM I have a crush. Everything goes downhill from here. Then my thoughts become: why is he talking to that b*tch?! I'm way prettier than her! Am I? Omg, if he starts dating her I'll just die. Omg, he touched my hand, he must love me! Omg, I don't want him to love me! He's too ____! Omg, please God let him love me! He could never love me. I'm hideous. Omg, he texted me!!! "Hey"??? What does that mean?? Does he mean "Hey, I am totally in love with you"?! Omg, how do I even respond to that?! Hey is too casual. Hi is too eager. Hello, then? No, he might take that as I don't want to talk to him. Why hasn't he texted me back yet?!!! I have to wait exactly 10 minutes to text him back so I look busy. THIS IS SO STRESSFUL!!!!
That's basically my life until I realize I hate him or that he really won't ever love me. I think he might kinda like me though. I don't know. The things I take as signs that a guy likes me usually don't mean anything and I'm just a psycho. Either that or I push them away once I being to see those signs. But I can't be sure because I've never had a boyfriend. So, who knows what I'm doing wrong. Anyway, for now I'm just going to relax. I'm not going to initiate conversation or try to be near him. It's soooo hard for me to hide my feelings, but I'm going to fight this with all my might! I hate that he isn't cute. I would feel better about this. At least the last guy I liked was physically attractive to some degree. I think it's better to have a superficial crush than a deep crush. Deep crushes are easier to confuse with love....

Considering Life and Its Oddities.
I should rename the title of this post because it's misleading. What this post (like pretty much every post) is really going to be me rambling / complaining / feeling hungry. Why is it, that I get hungry the moment I decide to go to bed?? What kind of f*ckery is that??? Anyway, I'm listening to Semisonic's only hit Closing Time. If I had a boyfriend I would make that song the background music to our awful Tumblr couple video. I hate Tumblr couple videos but I can't seem to stop obsessively watching them. They usually consist of a boy and a girl who do nothing but laugh and play and kiss and have sleep overs. There isn't much talking, none that the viewer can hear anyway, and there is always a Jason Mraz or Owl City song playing. Oh and it's in black and white. No exceptions. You don't qualify as a cute couple unless you are in black and white. It also doesn't count if you haven't broken up at least once but you're "still so in love" because at 15, you've already met the love of your life of course. And it's legit because it's on Tumblr, at least twenty people reblogged it, and it has like 20,000 views on YouTube. If that's not true love, I don't knw what is. *barf* As much as I make fun of these people, I continue to watch their videos. I guess it's because I know if I were in their position, I just might do the same thing. Don't judge me. I am ashamed of myself, but can you blame me? I'm growing up during a time where it's totally normal to share every aspect of your life online, or the parts you want people to envy / pity / learn from at least. I mean, if you really think about it, this blog is just as bad, if not worse because there's no romantic song playing in the background. I'm so hungry. I'm going to try to sleep now. I spent all the time talking about Tumblr couples that I don't remember the original intent of this post. Oh well.

I Have a Headache: Thoughts on idleness and the depression it causes.
- Having nothing to do makes you loathe people with deadlines, stress, and just something to do.
- Being idle makes you want to blow everything way out of proportion just so that you can say something happened.
- It's really embarrassing responding with the same deflated "nothing" whenever someone asks what you plan to do daily.
- To avoid saying nothing (yet again) when someone asks what plans you have for the day you make up a plan you have no intention of following through, then making up a story about why it didn't work out later. This is even more depressing than responding "nothing" because now in addition to being a loser, you're a liar.
- Being indoors all day causes headaches. Or maybe it's staring at screens. I'm still not sure on this one, maybe it's a combination of both.
- Your family WILL take advantage of your idleness and there's nothing you can do about it because well, do you have something better to do? Exactly.

Mood Swing.
Today I felt very depressed. I stuffed myself with leftover chicken and ice cream cones in an attempt to curb my sadness. It didn't help. After I finished eating, the sadness was still there. I don't know what to do. I just have to wait for it to pass. All I do when I'm in this mood is sleep, eat, and avoid people. I just want someone who thinks I'm beautiful inside and out. I just want to cry. My appearance hinders me. I'm not attractive. I don't have pretty hair or a perfect smile. I'm not thin. I don't have slim thighs or a flat stomach. It doesn't matter how much I long for someone to love me the same way I love them, it won't happen. My skin condition is all people see. I'm so flawed. People just pity me. A guy doesn't want a girl that everyone pities, he wants a girl that everyone likes and thinks is beautiful. Why did God make me this way? I'll never understand. I feel so sad. No one sees me as I am. They only see my skin condition. They only ugliness. This must be what I deserve.

"I used to have a best friend..."
The title is a Facebook status that one of my friend's best friend posted. It is the repeating phrase of the day. Every time I think of anything that reminds me of her, the phrase plays again: I used to have a best friend... with emphasis on the words "used to" and a sad pause at the end. As if she died. I do feel like she died. I feel like I've experienced some tragic death. I'm not even sure if she considers our friendship dead. She hasn't said anything to me. I feel I've done all I can to fix things. Her silence seems to me her way of de-friending me. While I do feel a great loss and I don't understand why any of this even happened, I won't blame myself. I refuse. Reflecting on my actions, I have done no wrong. I want to cry, but I refuse. I will not allow myself to cry over something so trivial. God has done this for a reason. Such an abrupt end to a strong friendship doesn't happen "just because". If it ended at all. In my mind, it has. I have to stop setting high expectations for people. Most human beings will disappoint you and you have no one to blame but yourself for expecting anything from them in the first place.

Life.
I feel so disregarded. I'm invisible in my own life. The people I thought would be there for me aren't. Everyone I meet ends up hurting me. I've come to the conclusion that it must be me. I must make it so easy to hurt me. If not, there would be someone I care about who hasn't hurt me. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. My expectations for others have always been too high. I expect others to treat me the way I want to be treated. It's clear to me now that people don't reciprocate. I can't understand why I know such shitty people. I can't understand why I trust people who clearly don't care about me. This is exactly why I'm so closed off to people. This is why I isolate myself for so long. I'm going to isolate myself again. I'm going to focus on my dreams and becoming successful. I'm used to being alone. It's nothing new. I think I'll be happier if I focus on myself and stop worrying about being friends with anyone. I'm moving anyway. It's better this way.

When Did Your Heart Go Missing?
I miss him sooo much. I'm not talking about text message guy, I'm talking about Super Crush turned "Best Friend". At least I thought I saw him as a friend. Ever since he started going out with her, it's like I don't even exist. I know he cares about me, and supposedly he misses me, but I feel like I've lost him forever. I know that's dramatic, but it feels dramatic. I'm leaving soon and if things continue this way, I'll leave without saying goodbye. I have a feeling the girl he's dating doesn't want him around me and that hurts. I wish things could go back to the time I listened to his heartbeat. I should probably just cut my losses and pretend he doesn't exist anymore. In a way, he doesn't. The him that I cuddled with and watched movies with and held hands with for hours went away. He's someone different now. He's an uglier version. He's someone I don't even recognize. I don't even think there's anything I could have done to change this. All I can do now is appreciate the time I spent with him and dream of what could have been. I did love the time I spent with him. I loved how we were before he disappeared. I watched him fade slowly and I didn't quite understand what was happening until it happened already. I'm not sad or upset, or at least I'm trying not to be, because I'm grateful that I got to meet him and have the experiences we had. Just because I feel something for him, that doesn't mean we were meant to be together. That's something I have to learn.

What about me?
I've felt pretty unsupported these past couple of days. My best friend only ever wants to talk about her boyfriend issues and it makes me feel so alone. It's probably because it's that time and I'm an emotional wreck, but I do feel like ever since she became involved with this guy she isn't very helpful. Sometimes I think I'm being selfish, but I always listen to her problems and provide feedback. When I try to talk about my problems, it somehow turns into a discussion about whether or not she should break up with him. I honestly feel like of you have to question it so much, you shouldn't be in the relationship. It's annoying that people who don't even know how to take care of themselves end up in relationships, and I've never even experienced one. Not even a bad one. Well I've had a bad relationship, but it wasn't a real one. Don't I deserve a nice guy? I guess not. This is all I've thought about lately.
Whatever. This is my life. Things will be different in college, it has to be. I'll just look forward to starting over.

Anxiety.
I can't sleep. I have too much on my mind. Plus, I ate stuff that was super sweet and the aftertaste is lingering. I could just brush my teeth, but meh. I'm nervous about all that's happening this month: two photography jobs, one for a wedding, and the other for a birthday party. The wedding is a huge amount or pressure because I wasn't even supposed to be hired and apparently, I'm too expensive. Such bullshit. Other photographers charge triple the amount I'm charging. And charge by the photo. Every time God gives me something, there's a catch or something broken. It's really depressing. I have cramps. I have no clue what I'm wearing to any of these events. I'm hoping my grandfather can take me shopping this weekend. That would solve that problem. I'm freaking out over school. It's sooo expensive and I'm so poor. Why couldn't my mother have started a college fund? Why couldn't some distant wealthy relative have taken me under their wing? When I was applying, I was told not to worry abut the cost of school. Now I'm being told that I'll be in debt forever. Who hates me and why? I feel like something either really good or really horrible is going to happen to me. Probably both. Most likely the latter. I think the chances of me falling asleep anytime soon are slim to none. I also think that my uterus is stretching a hole into itself. Whatever is happening in that region of my body, it's not good. It doesn't feel good anyway. I need to lose weight. I'm disgusting. I wish I would wake up, look in the mirror and find I'm beautiful. No pimples, no discoloration, no braces, long curly hair, perfectly white and straight teeth, a flat stomach, thin thighs, a perky round butt, full C cup boobs, and a sunny disposition. I hate myself. I hate everything about me. Why would God make me this way? Why would he give me this life? Why must I be so lonely and unhappy? I don't think anything will change when I move. I think I'm still going to feel ugly and ignored. I still won't find a guy who likes me as more than a friend and sees me as someone he would like to date. I think I'm always going to feel this way and it's really depressing. Every time I go out I think "maybe today will be the day that some interesting stranger introduces himself to me and we click instantly. Maybe today I'll meet my first real boyfriend. Maybe his parents and little sister will love me. Maybe he'll have the same skin condition I do. Maybe he'll call me beautiful and I'll believe him. Maybe we'll fall head over heels for each other and it'll be gross and annoying. Maybe I'll finally stop feeling so alone and hate myself a lot less. Maybe we'll fall in love and even when we break up, we'll never think negatively toward each other." But then I remember who I am and that life isn't a movie and I don't bother to comb my hair. Because what is the point of having pretty hair with an ugly face? Or vice versa for that matter. Every time I think I'm getting a taste of love, it's just another loss and another scuff on my heart. I hope this is that dark time before the dawn people talk about. I'm going to attempt to get sleep now.

Boys.
I don't think I'll ever understand the opposite sex. Boys are like a foreign language I won't ever figure out. I need a translator or some classes. Something to help me decode this mystery. I'm being dramatic. I wouldn't know what to do with that knowledge anyway. It probably wouldn't change the state of my love life. I think I just have to wait. I've waited this long, what's a little while longer? I can only hope that he'll be worth the wait. I overthink things too much and probably ruin things that could possibly be great. Plus, I never ever make the first move. Ever. It's too risky and I'm not confident that I wont get laughed at or brushed off (again). That literally hurt my heart to type. I hate to feel this way, but I know if I didn't have my skin condition I would have better luck with guys. I hate myself for feeling that way. I hate myself for having the condition on the first place. I really don't think I'm attractive most days. I think I have to do so much to make myself look pretty. I feel like I have to be the sweetest, nicest, friendliest, most obsequious I can be to compensate for how I look. I hate that I can't tell if a guy is looking at me because he thinks I'm beautiful or strange looking. I guess either way it doesn't really matter. For now, I'm going to hold on to hope because life is absurd, especially my life. I think I should end this now. I'm watching The Notebook for the first time. It's really nice so far.

Annoyed.
I'm ready to leave. I'm sick of this life. I've outgrown it. I'm ready for new experiences and people. I realized that I was holding on to the past. And trying to recapture what I had with him. But it's not going to happen. Anyway, I snapped out of it and I'm ready to move on with my life. If it hasn't happened already, it never will. Something I've learned from this whole situation things will either happen or they won't. Even if you do decide to fight and wait and fight some more, there is a good chance that you'll end up right back where you started. You may waste so much time and energy going after something that was never meant to be. We hate to think this way, but sometimes things are called "impossible" for the very valid reason that they really are. I like to think that we'll meet again. That our friendship was something really beautiful and real. That one day, under the most perfect circumstances, it can blossom into something more. And by that time, we'll both have grown into amazing people, fully capable of truly and completely loving each other. Because we love each other now, just imagine how our love could be at its full potential; after we completely love ourselves. It is my firm belief that you will NEVER TRULY love someone until you truly love yourself. Can I get an amen? Haha. I love to write. I feel like I lost a bit of my fire. I think I would enjoy writing collections of essays about my experiences and what I've learned from them. Kind of what Lena Dunham's character is doing on my new favorite show Girls. Omg, have you seen it? If you haven't, you must right away. It is amazeballs. It comes on Sundays on HBO. I love to sing. It makes me feel so good. When I find a guy crazy enough to date me, I'll sing to him every day. I think it's the sweetest thing when couples sing to each other. And I hate couples, but I think that is super duper cute :) as much as I can't stand people in relationships, I feel like I would be great in one. I'm a little scared that I would lose myself in one. It's so easy to lose yourself loving someone else. I see it way too much. You lose your sense of self. I'm not ready to become a unit. Until I'm a whole person, and I meet another whole person, I won't be ready to become part of a pair. I wish I could skip the whole coy cutesy boy-meets-girl part of dating and just be with someone. I just want to meet someone and it feel like we have been together for three months already. I want to skip the first date, the "Does He Like Me?" Period, the honeymoon phase, the shut-off-the-rest-of-the-world-only-us period and fast forward to the first argument. That's when you know you can get past anything. I want to know that we're going to last at least until we're sick of each other. I want to skip to the part where we're so in sync that no one notices anymore. That we finish each other's sentences and move as one body, but it's become so natural that it would only be weird to every one else of we weren't behaving that way. I want a relationship where our everyday routine is the highlight of our day. Where the most boring event is the most exciting simply because we are together. I want a relationship where when we spend some time apart, it's as relaxing and great as when we're together. I mailed the deposit for school today. It's official, I'm leaving. There's no turning back now. I'm terrified and delighted. This is the most exciting event in my life. Why am I so tired? Bleh. I feel like my life is beginning anew. It's a beautiful thing. I wonder if I'll remember this blog when I abandon my current life. I wonder if I'll ever do anything with this blog or let anyone read it. I don't think anyone will want to read it. I'm sleepy. Going to rest....

Spam
Despite the fact that his phone is off, I've sent him eleven text messages. I'm not sure how he'll take it. Hopefully he'll see it as I do: I miss him a lot and want to make up for lost time and make sure I hang out with him before school starts. I wonder what will become of us. I wonder if I'll meet a cute guy. I wonder if I'll suddenly become attractive or if a guy will find me attractive. I hate the mystery of the future. I'm also tired but my mind is racing. I hate that when I try to talk to my friend she talks about her boyfriend. You would think she would be more considerate. But no. I know better than that though. I've learned not to expect her to do anything for me. Maybe this move will be good for me. I know know it will. I'm starving. I love stream of consciousness writing. It's very liberating writing nearly every thought. It's also a bit amusing reading the result. I love to read what I thought about situations as they are happening and how my feelings have changed since then. I hope he's thinking of me too. He probably isn't but if he is, I hope he's thinking that he should text me as soon as he can. I wish he could know somehow that I love him and I constantly defend him. I should text him that. I hope he's in my dreams. I hope I'm in his. In the good dreams. I wish he wished I was with him. I hope he got taller. I hope he hasn't lost what I loved about him most. I hope he isn't with his girlfriend anymore. I hope he wants me. Okay. I'm going to dream. Not that I'm tired... I just like to dream.

Regret!
Here we are again. I may have missed out on a great guy. But I won't know until it's too late. His phone is off which is why he didn't answer my texts. That's a little depressing, but a great relief that he isn't ignoring me. That would have definitely made me cry like a baby. I've been trying to keep my mind off of him by cyber stalking my future school. It helped a lot. Especially since some of my future classmates are quite attractive. And the events they host seem like a blast. The wheels are turning and life is happening. This is not- I repeat NOT A DRILL!!!! shit is getting real people. It's super exciting and transitional and beautiful and I have never been more happy. And scared shitless. I feel so fortunate. I feel like everything I've been waiting and hoping for is right there for me and all I have to do is take it. It's a liberating feeling. So, I'm wrestling with excitement and sadness and I hope excitement wins because sadness sucks and doesnt get you anywhere. I could sit and cry over the one who got away or I could look out for the one who will always stay. Besides, if we did decide to give each other a try, it would just be a fling because a long distance relationship is NOT something I want to be a part of. Okay, falling asleep, need rest, wish me luck!
