Feb. 8, 2012 I wish I didn't have to take the damn GED test. Walking into that high school was fucking awful. My anxiety went through the roof and I was reminded of why I hated high school so much and why I dropped out. I don't think anyone really understands how terrible high school was for me. I wasn't bullied, I was invisible. I spent lunch in the library or if I wasn't there, I was in what everyone referred to as 'the reject corner'. It was a corner in a hallway where the rejects ate lunch. We weren't friends, but we didn't want to eat lunch alone. There were always different people in the corner. A nerd, a drama geek, a couple of goths, a pot head, that awkward Asian kid, and a few people like me: the quiet invisible people. We didn't talk much in the corner. Just ate in silence, but it wasn't an awkward silence. We somehow all knew that we only ate together to avoid eating alone. Once in awhile a few of the rejects would hit it off and become friends, but then they would have each other and they would no longer be rejects, so they'd leave the corner. Sometimes (most of the time) I would skip class to go cry in the girl's bathroom. I was so depressed that it felt difficult to breathe. I was alone and it was one of the worst feelings in the world. I hated waking up in the morning to find that I was alive.
And even though I'm not in high school anymore, walking into any type of school freaks me the fuck out.

Things my boyfriend does that are fuckin cute and quirky and make me love him more:
- When he laughs so hard that he physically assaults his furniture
- The fact that he can't stand when people touch the paddle after eating finger food
- When he rocks back and forth when he's nervous
- How big his eyes get when he's surprised
- How his laugh sounds like a hyena
- The wide mouth bass
- The smile on his face when he sees me smiling
- How cute his face looks squished against his pillow

"The brave things in the old tales and songs, Mr. Frodo: adventures, as I used to call them. I used to think that they were things the wonderful folk of the stories went out and looked for, because they wanted them, because they were exciting and life was a bit dull, a kind of sport, as you might say. But that's not the way of it with the tales that really mattered, or the ones that stay in the mind. Folk seem to have been just landed in them, usually -their paths were laid that way, as you put it." -Samwise Gamgee, The Lord Of The Rings

If I'm ever in a room full of hipsters, I'm gonna say things that would shock and annoy them- and pretend to be completely serious about it. Like
- "So did you guys hear the new Nickelback album?"
- "I wish Justin Beiber did the Twilight sound track."
- "I've been on the all-bacon diet for three weeks and it's AMAZING!"
