PAGE OF MY LIFE

Life is so complicating when you hit thirteen. There's so many of this thing called "feelings" that weigh down your shoulders. Let me give you an example.

Example

Okay so you like your best friend. And your best friend likes your friend. And you told your best friend you like his friend, when actually you like your best friend.

You got me so far?

Okay, good, back to the point. So you like him. Big deal. It's not like he knows or anything. So yeah. You keep this secret to yourself and whenever anyone asks you who you like, you lie that it's your best friend's friend. And this goes on for a while.

Then all of a sudden, you start seeing his friend in a whole different light. You start falling head over heels. You think about him all the time. You never seem to have anything, other than him, blocking your TV screen or hogging your air supply. You can't really eat. Sleep. Or even talk for the matter.

You start thinking more about your looks. You try to impress him alot. But then, he still doesn't notice you. Okay, so he glances at you. So what? He does that to all girls.

Then you have this big thing coming up and you think that's the perfect time to impress him. You dress up, fix your hair, and wear heels, which is totally torture to you.

It ends up that you caught him glancing at you more than once. But you couldn't really tell, the sun was always in your face. But you DID see him look your way.

After that whole thing you become more open, less quiet like you are, and think the world revolves around you. You start to act different, change in a way, and loosen up.

Big mistake.

Your grades go down. Your dad's leaving to work for the navy. And your circle of friendship starts falling apart. What do you do?

You try to study more. You try to spend as much time with your dad as you can. You try to mend your circle of friendship.

But that's not enough.

End of Example

So what do you do? Forget about the guy. Yeah yeah, it's that simple. But really, it's not as easy as saying it.
