I'm sorry. To anyone reading this, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. For killing, for changing, for being the way I am-perfect in every way-yet not being able to date every girl who wants me.

I've always been a skeptic. That's just my protection against the world, I guess. I mean, the world hasn't been very nice to me. I've learned not to trust anyone. In fact, I really can't trust anyone. That skepticism has saved us many times. Even Jake will admit it. I'm always the first one to see the flaws in plans, the holes in stories, the traps that could be. It's not a pleasant job, but hey, where would we be without me? Besides making out with each other all the time.

Something I realized, as circumstance forced, is that people in general believe that they are dealing with more than their peers. You know, "Well, we all have this Language Arts project, but I have a project in Biology, too... Plus, my mom's sick." It's just one of those things people do to justify their shortcomings and keep them from going crazy. However, this knowledge can work to a person's advantage, if said person really IS dealing with more than their peers-Language Arts project, Bio project, Controller Mom, and, oh yeah-saving the world. See, the theory works in reverse. All ya gotta do is pretend everybody's dealing with just as much as you are. Pretend risking your life without any credit is a normal teenager problem. Then, you will have the willpower to do everything, and will try to keep up with your life.

You will, however, soon have a breakdown.

I think that's what I'm having now. A breakdown. Life's insane. At least, my life's insane. Yep, here goes-I'm gonna go save the world. If I don't come back, I'm up in Heaven playing Diablo, only with surround-sound and no game-overs.

Hopefully.
