To my faithful readers whom I've abandoned,

I am terribly sorry for being so... shitty with my updates. I've had so much going on with work and I started my classes at the beginning of September. I guess you're expecting a chapter from this story, huh? Well I hate to disappoint, even thought that's all I've been... My dad had restored the computer to it's original settings the other day... which means, I lost everything. All the chapters I've written. All the letters and things I've written. And most of all, this story. I am a terrible person for not updating that chapters I had already written. I am re downloading the word processor as I type this... on notepad, lol. I am going to try and carry on this story. I recently got an idea for a new story... And I really want to go on that and publish that for you guys. But I always do that, so I am going to try and stick to my guns and write and finish this baby!

Well, I know you probably hate me right now. I would hate me too. It's been months since I've written anything and posted it on here. But you know, life sucks. Truly does. I've been going through so much shit. Remember Zach? Yeah... well. He likes someone. And they don't feel the same way about him. Looks like he finally got a taste of his own medicine, I guess. It just really sucks to love someone and they don't feel the same way. And I can't help but love it. To see him so sad and upset because she doesn't love him. Yeah, well that was me for almost nine months. And I told no one and let the bitterness and shit just build inside of me. I smile though when he's upset. Is that cynical of me? He finally gets to see what it was like to love someone and not have them love you back. He was making a big deal about how 'he's done with girls because they all suck.' And my best friend asked him, "well what about Angela?" His response was, "I just never found her appealing." And now the girl he's hopelessly falling in love with is doing that same thing that happened to me. Karma is a bitch, huh? Oh well. I can't help but be bitter. Ugh.

Anyway, all that bullshit aside, I will hope to be updating this story soon. And starting to write my new one. And I will post that one after I have finished The Bump. That is what is going to be my motivation, to post this new story that I have just rattling about in my brain when I finish this one. I hope you guys don't hate my too much... cause I love you. But yeah... I'm gonna try and get the next chapter up ASAP! Thank you again for reading my stuff And I love you. If you guys want to give me any input on what should happen to Troy and Gabriella, please PM me or post a review! It would really mean a lot to me if I had your opinion. Anyway, I should go to bed. It's almost five in the morning.

Oh! And one more thing I forgot to mention, Zac Efron is perfect. Okay! Thanks. BYE BYE! ;)
