my so-called life episode #20, the day after the last episode
It was a musk spring day, Angela sat looking out her window at Brian he was riding his bike
around the block.
Angela: So its Saturday, and I have too say…that in a lot of ways I miss Brian, he never
comes over anymore with some lame excuse, or rides his bike , while circling the block until I
get home from being with Jordan, so he can tell me what an idiot I'm, or how late it is…
He hardly ever speaks to me. Anymore, and I guess I kind of miss that.

AngelaVo: I cant believe this, its Saturday, and I'm alone again, because Brian hates me,
and I have no friends…(playing with the remote control) And what I don't get is why on
weekdays there's nothing but great shows that people miss because their at work or
school, or where ever it is they are…and on the weekend there's nothing on but boring
decorating shows, or lame talk shows, or old movies..(turns off the T.V)
