I have a mother ******** black eye.
How you ask? Because I'm stupid. I was talking to my friend and not paying attention to what was in front of me, then ran into a wall.
Nope, my friend did not tell me that wall was there. No "Watch out!" or "Stop!" Nope. Thanks so much. It's not their fault, though. Next time I'll just pay attention.... This is my very first black eye. Good thing we didn't have school today, the guy I'm into would have been quite inquisitive about what happened there.
Really I hardly give thought to what others think of me, though. I don't place any value on that.

I changed my hairstyle ( moved my bangs). When I came to school the next day people pounced on me like the friggin' paparazzi. I don't like that mania and attention s**t.

My best friend and I are into the same person. I just told her she can go ahead and shoot her shot. This is the second time this has happened, and both times I told her she go ahead and go for him. I don't want any bullshit. It's better for her to shoot her shot and for me to focus on anything but dating. Ever since I told her she can go for it, she talks about him non ******** stop. She even went as far as saying she would miss him more than me during winter break. The ********. They aren't even in any stage near dating/talking! In fact, she's too afraid to tell him she likes him. So I find it ridiculous for to have said that considering these facts. I've known her since diapers, dude. Seriously? What kind of s**t. I swear I'm too nice to my friends.

Any advice? Because I'm definitely listening.
