Meh…

I feel really detached from my friends.

People I used to be really close to, I barely ever talk to now. It’s frustrating and it’s annoying. I used to be really close to both Claire and Allie and now I hardly ever talk to them anyone, granted it’s not really their fault but still. It’s so strange not having someone to talk to about things on my mind. I’m used to just telling someone to get it off my chest and that really doesn’t happen anymore.

I want to talk about Chicago and my differentiating feelings on it. I’m bored. I want to do something. Thus here I am with my journal. I miss my website, but it’s so…dead. Maybe I’ll go write so fan fiction or something. Or take another live journal thing. Lets go see…

Nope. Fanfic it is!

Mixed Emotions

I’m lost, confused, trapped and alone,
this world is surround me,
and I don’t know which way to go

heaven on earth, nowhere to be found
here there and everywhere
yet there’s nowhere for me.

people coming, people going,
but I’m looking all around
learning only that up is down.

so much to take in, so much to lose,
in a place where nobody can catch you
broken hearts, crushed souls.

So catch me, find me
show me the way,
lead me along the path
and save my day.

Scared Shitless.

Ok, see, I told you I’d write again. Like I said, I only bother when somethings wrong and tonight is my last night home. I know that as soon as everyone’s in bed, I’m going to cry. That’s all there is too it. This house has been my home for so long and now after tonight I won’t get to be in my own bed for another 6 months. That’s a long time.

I’m looking around my room and I’m so nostalgic because I couldn’t even bring any of it with me. But I have an idea. I need to do this. I think those’ll help really. I know you’re probably wondering what I did. I took down my glow in the dark stars. I’ll put them up over my bed when I move.

Ok, so apparently there’s a lot of stuff really really close to where I’ll be living. Like a movie theatre. That is essential to my life and make me feel a lot better. And apparently 512 Square feet is actually pretty big. Didn’t know that. I’m sure that includes the bathroom however. o.-;

Alright. Temporary hysteria over and I’m once again thinking of opportunities. Yeyyyy! *grin*

July 4, 2004

Ok, so rant time.

Since only I can read this, I’m just going to list off people and my issues. Kami help me if other people really can read this. I’ll cry. So maybe just in case, I’ll add this.

IF YOU’RE NOT MY OWN MIND, DON’T YOU -DARE- READ THIS! IF A SINGLE PERSON GETS MAD AT ME, I’M NOT EVEN GOING TO DEAL WITH IT. I’LL STICK WITH JUST NEVER TALKING TO YOU AGAIN FOR BETRAYING MY REQUEST FOR PRIVACY. GOT IT? I’M -DEAD- SERIOUS ABOUT THIS.

Madelin – Kami I love you woman. (The friend love) I know you’d do just about anything to come see me.

Pookie – Sometimes I hate it when your happy. I started to talk to you about this one day but you were to busy being happy. It’s horrible I know, but it’s also the only time you talk to me. You mean to much to me, you really are like a little sister or just my best friend and I hate it when you pull away from me. Like yesterday, I ask how your doing and I get – cool. That just sucks ass. I want to know what’s going on in your life but as the days go by you seem to want me to know less and less. I hate that you’ve all but abandoned Jinxsed and me. I’m jealous and I resent everyone of your irl friends because they can be there for you when I can’t.

Rando – Sometimes I just want to smack you. I have no idea why either. Maybe this time it was the lack of any warning that you were suddenly leaving the boards for a week and forcing the plot line to just drop without you. Argh. I hate how you’re just like me and need to be responsible for things. I hate that I have to wonder if you’ve even been my friend for me and not just to get closer to me.

Sprinkles – I don’t even know you. Two years and I barely know you at all and yet…we sort of talk all the time. It’s strange, we’re always in the same chats but usually our conversations are with other people but each other.

Dusty – I….am insanely jealous of your friends. I hate HPB. But what I hate most, is that I’m not even allowed to hate them. I hate that I had to swallow my pride so we could be friends and it’s starting to make me resent you for it. It wasn’t me and it was something I’d never do. I don’t back down from how I feel and even now I still feel it. Jinxsed was there for you first and then when something else came along you ran to it and forgot all about Jinxsed. The last fight tore apart our friendship and it’s never been the same since. We talk, but we don’t talk. I don’t think we can ever go back to the level of closeness we once had. Tab said one day that she stopped holding grudges when I mentioned this to her. I don’t think this is a grudge. I think it really it that I resent you for making me be someone I’m not and say things I didn’t mean that day. I feel like you choose them over us and I hate when you talk about your other friends. I don’t like them all and you’ve given them a one-sided opinion on me. I really hate that. At least with my friends they know you too so they hear both sides of the story. It sucks because at times I don’t even know who out of my friends I can rely on to be there for me. I know Pookie will always be on my side but she’s not even around these days.

Brian – I’ll never be who you want me to be. I can’t be there for you and you can’t love me. I’m leaving Brian. Leaving. I’m not going to have a long distance relationship and I don’t want to be a person who drags you across the country. I don’t love you.

Josh – One day you might meet me and find that I’m not who you expect. Like Brian, you can’t love me. You don’t even know me. You live completely across the country from me and yet you think your in love with me. I don’t love you either.

Randyo – I never know where we’re getting close and when we’re not. I have the feeling that you’re always hiding something from me and I don’t like it. Your a riddle and I don’t think I’ll ever be the person you can talk too. But that’s your choice. I’d like us to be friends, which we are, but we’ll never be the spill everything to each other friends. I don’t think it’s how either of us work. We’re just too much alike.

Jinxsie – I’ll never be able to trust you. I don’t a bit. I don’t think I ever had. Your negativity and the fact that you make fun of everyone always leaves my wondering when or if, you’re going to make fun of me. You keep all your feeling cooped up and nobody ever knows how you feel or what to expect from you. There’s days when I hate you and days when I love being around you, but the fact that I never know what kind of day it’s going to be makes me wonder.

Tab – I have nothing to say about you. For the last… 8 months since we were friends again, you’ve done nothing but be there for me ad vice versa. I couldn’t ask for anything more from a friends and I’m so grateful to you for it. It’s not hard to believe that we’ve been friends for 2 years now, in fact, it seems like a lot longer. ^.^ so my note on you is just a thanks, even if you will never know.

And that’s everyone. Trust me, if for some reason someone else does read this one day, there are happy words for the bad comments and vice versa. I just needed to get it all out to an impartial party. Myself. I needed to know how I felt about everyone and it’s good to get it out.

Twenty four oceans
Twenty four skies
Twenty four failures
Twenty four tries
Twenty four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
Twenty four drop outs
At the end of the day
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty four hours ago

Still I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
And I’m not who I thought I was twenty four hours ago
Still I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You

Twenty four reasons to admit that I’m wrong
With all my excuses still twenty four strong

See I’m not copping out not copping out not copping out
When You’re raising the dead in me
Oh, oh I am the second man
Oh, oh I am the second man now
Oh, oh I am the second man now

And You’re raising these twenty four voices
With twenty four hearts
With all of my symphonies
In twenty four parts
But I wan to be one today
Centered and true

I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
You’re raising the dead in me
Oh, oh I am the second man
Oh, oh I am the second man now
Oh, oh I am the second man now
And You’re raising the dead in me

I want to see miracles, see the world change
Wrestled the angel, for more than a name
For more than a feeling
For more than a cause
I’m singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
And You’re raising the dead in me
Twenty four voices
With twenty four hearts
With all of my symphonies
In twenty four parts.
I’m not copping out. Not copping out. Not copping out.

July 4, 2004

And…yeah

So yeah, I’d be a bit scared. People are just telling me not to worry, everyone else will be just as lost. But will they? I mean, my parents are all – you’re in for a big culture shock. I know I am. Maine is…99.04% white. I read that earlier today. Really. Life is going to be a lot different for me coming up. I’m just glad that I have my website really. It’s one stable thing in my life – I move, but it won’t be going anywhere. Which is good, really good, I need something that’s going to be there for me no matter where I am. Granted, I’d rather that be a -person- but considering that’s why I was waiting till Chicago, I can’t say much on that part.

But yeah… then I’m afraid of having a boyfriend who I know will be more experienced then me. I just… the guys around here are asses and I didn’t exactly want to experience anything with them. There’s never been anyone I wanted to. Oh well. It’s going to be life and I guess I’ll just take it as it comes.

Ha! Of all songs…Headstrong plays. I guess that’s how I’ll have to be, my usual Headstrong self. I am…very Headstrong in more then one way. My head controls my actions, I don’t listen to my heart much. Too many failed experiences when I trusted it to do that.

Even I don’t understand why I pushed myself away from my friends. Maybe it was a – I’m pushing you away before you can hurt me when I move kind. It could’ve been…I don’t know. I know with Brian I was afraid. Terrified. I was scared he was going to tell me he loved me and I’m not ready for that. I didn’t love Brian. I don’t love Brian. I need someone… very patient, how about that? I’m scared in relationships. He just made me…confused? I don’t understand why Brian liked me. He’d tell me I was beautiful but I just can’t accept that. People have never told me that before that weren’t in my family so I doubted it. I’ve never been the girl that every guy was after. I was the one who was too loud, too quiet, couldn’t dress, a bitch… you name it. Anything but the beautiful girl in the back row.

I am so getting strips of my hair bleached today. I want something different before I go. Something to help show (other then the 3 earrings in each ear and the belly button ring) that country girls can be fun too. I have no idea what it’s going to be like when I move. I really need to finish packing and I’ve been putting it off so much. >.<

I’m sure I’ll write more later. I alway write in my journal when somethings bothering me and there’s so much going on in my mind right now that I need to get out, I mean, I’ve gone a year with no best friend – Jinx is my friend and all, but she’s not really a…best friend. Your best friend shouldn’t be someone you have to worry about mocking you when you tell them your thoughts. I’m angst y. If I told her exactly what went on in my brain she’d make fun of me like she does other people. It’s just who I am. That’s why I write “such real life situations” as some reviewer put it in my fanfics. I just write my own life with the characters. It’s why I write, because as they come to solve their own problems, so do I.

I’ve often wondered if other people knowing about my journal was a good or bad thing. On a good side, some people get a closer look at my psyche. On the downside, there’s some things about people I truly can’t say, even here because I know they’ll read it. Maybe I should just stick it under…private? Is that how that option works? Cause there’s stuff I’d like to rant a little about to my happy self without having to worry about people yelling at me for it later, or saying something…or just frustrating them with my inner doubting self. I’ll ask Pooks later I guess, she’d probably know. So yeah, on private apparently only I can read it. I’m going to do one of those in a minute here so I can just…vent.

July 4, 2004

So…yeah.

So tomorrow I move halfway across the country to a place I’ve never been and know 2 people. Sounds fun. But if I said I was scared as hell, I’d be lying. A lot. I mean, I’ve never moved. I’ve never been to college and everyone’s always like – it’s way different and blahity blah blah… ok, for someone who change scares the living shit out of, I’m a quaking pile of jello.

I’m sure I’ll meet new people. Really. I mean, it’s the whole reason I wanted to leave Maine. Meet some new friends, get a new boyfriend… all of it. But yeah, I’ll add more to this when I get back from lunch. You and I journal have a long date with my subconscious.

*sighs* I know people can say I can talk to them, but to some I can’t. Like Rando is trying to understand and be there, but I just don’t talk to him anymore. And Pookie’s just to busy to bother these days. We’ve barely talked for the last few weeks, which totally sucks, and Claire and I haven’t really talked since we fought. I still have Tab – speaking of the devil, she just im’d me. I’m glad we started talking again, it’s really good. *massive hugs @ the Tab area*

By the way, I’m just wasting time while Shauna gets my clothes. So yeah. Getting big fear out of the way with Tab now. Like about boyfriends. Ok, finish after…
