We Came As Romans

I'm happy.

I can't believe I just typed that, but it's true. I am actually happy right now. I mean, my life is still complicated as hell and stuff, but I like the way my social standing is.

Nothing awkward has happened with me and S. which I am unbelievably relieved for. If we had stopped being friends I don't know what I would have done, I really don't. He's a great friend, and such a lovely person, but I'm starting to worry about him in other aspects now. I'm not sure if it's my place or not to get involved either, maybe it is I don't know >.<

Basically, you remember I mentioned the boy I was in love with? H.? Well, his slutty ex has started to flirt with S. right in front of him, and H. thinks that S. is encouraging her. To be honest, I don't see it, but having never flirted with anyone in my life, I really wouldn't know, would I? Thing is, I'm not jealous (maybe a little because she gets to sit with them in class and stuff) but I'm worried about H. I don't want him and S. to fall out over that bitch, she isn't worth it. I heard H. say it himself in class today, I probably shouldn't have been listening in but it's so hard not to.

I think I'm starting to get feelings for H. again. Today we had a conversation - kind of - for the first time in over a year and I couldn't stop thinking that one line over and over in my head. Wow, I forgot how damn cute he is :( I know he doesn't feel that way about me, probably hates that I've been accepted into their group (more on that!) but I don't think he hates me. I hope he doesn't. And if he does, he has a funny way of showing it, especially because apparently one lesson he had with his ex he really dug into her about all the crap she's done/did. That is probably one of the reasons I like him so much: we both see past her façade of 'little miss innocent'. A lot of girls do, but the boys I hang out with don't. I'm glad she hasn't been with us this week, I feel much more comfortable and happier without her there.

Anyway, I spoke to my friend, LL., today. Apparently that bitch I., who is in their group because of her boyfriend and stuff, was spreading rumours about me. Saying I asked out S. to prom and he said no blah blah blah. To be fair, I did ask him out, but that was last week, and apparently that rumour arose about a month ago. LL. told me she went up to I. and her boyfriend and told them to lay off me because I'm part of their group now, which made me smile :) I like feeling like a part of something, but I do not want to get involved in the drama of it all. That's too much trouble, way more than it's ever worth.

The boys didn't act any different with me though, especially S., so they either didn't hear the rumours, didn't care, or didn't believe them. I'm happy I didn't know about it at the time, I would have felt awful. I hate that bitch I. for what she did to me with my friends turning against me, this is not entirely surprising really. I hope nothing else happens.

I have a 5 hour assessment in textiles tomorrow. Woo. Wish me luck >.<

Pierce The Veil - Collide With The Sky

I seriously am starting to think I deserve to be alone. I've done some terrible things in the past. I'm the reason a girl nearly drowned when we were seven years old. I lost the boy I loved because I refused to give up on him. I was abandoned by my friends because I opened my heart up and let the shit spill out. And now because I said something stupid I'm going to torture myself everyday. I kind of want to, but I also don't. I dunno, I just really have no idea anymore.

Basically, I kind of asked out S. yesterday. Needless to say it did not go well. He said he'd just got out of a relationship (okay, let me point out here that I had no idea about this, and also point out the girl is a horrible person because, well, some people just are, and I'm not being judgmental here even though it isn't coming across very well) and that he wasn't looking for another. I mean, I can completely understand, I really can. 

You don't want a relationship, well,  you don't want a relationship. Simple as. I'm just annoyed at myself because it just slipped out and then I was so embarrassed and I started thinking about all the reasons someone would want to be with me (fyi, it's 0) and I couldn't stop over-thinking the whole thing. Then no one seemed to notice I was upset, and I don't know if I would have wanted their sympathy or not, but it would have been nice if someone noticed. You know what I mean?

Anyway, when I came home I phoned my best friend, Jessie, straight away. She's the most amazing best friend in the whole world and I don't know what I would do without her. I completely cried myself out (or thought I did at least) while I was talking to her, and even though neither of us have much experience with guys or that kind of thing, she told me not to worry and things would be okay. She told me to get some tea and find some chocolate to munch on and do some work for school. To be honest, I couldn't have found better advice. I'm so happy she's my friend, I don't deserve her! She told me she would take me to the cinema this weekend, just to cheer me up :) Oh God, I'm getting teary eyed right now!

My parents were supportive too, which is awesome. Everyone I have told (a total of four people) have said "It's his loss!" and I know I should believe them, I do. But... what is there to love about me really? There's nothing. I'm boring, I talk to much, my grades are dropping by the day, I'm ugly, I'm lazy and I don't know when to leave well enough alone. Oh, and I latch onto things, which is basically the same as the latter but meh, it's late.

Thing is, I have to see S. everyday for the rest of the week, then next week, and the next... not the weekends of course, but during the week. Now he knows how I feel about him (or did, I don't know anymore) things will be awkward. Although, things were okay today, maybe we're even closer now? I hope so, more than anything I would hate to lose his friendship, I value it more than any romantic relationship. He's moving soon as well, so it's for the best that nothing like that ever happened :)

Yes. I know I'm right there. I'll go into school tomorrow and be his friend. Just his friend. And I want to stay in contact with him when he moves to London. I will. I just hope he doesn't get bored of me.

One day, maybe tomorrow, maybe next week, maybe in a year or ten, I'll meet someone and we'll fall in love and everything will be alright. See, I have this idea of love in my head, and I want that. Not some mis-match version some people have pressed against a wall or on a bed.

I want intimacy. I want cuteness. I want surprise kisses. I want comfortable silences. I want love, in the most simple sense of the word.

I've really screwed shit up now.

Fall Out Boy - From Under The Cork Tree

So today's Saturday... what's happened since my last report you ask?

I went on this To Kill A Mockingbird theatre trip with school in Manchester. It was really amazing! I didn't expect to like it as much as I did, but I'm glad I did. My biggest issue when I went was who I was going to hang out with. J. was going, so when I first found out I was happy I would get to sit and chill with her for a few hours, then the Great Fallout took place and I had no where to go and stuff. It wasn't awkward though, I still hung out with J. there and stuff, because her other friends I have no care for kind of ditched her, and I haven't had much of a chance to talk to her since what happened with L.

I ended up sitting on the bus with S. and his friend T. however, which was tons of fun and such a laugh. My mouth hurt from all the laughing and talking I did by the end of the night; I was so hyper! I don't think J. liked the play much, she liked the guy who played Jem though, if you know what I mean... ;) I teased her about that endlessly!

Oh, and my SWS t-shirt that I ordered came in the post! Omg it's beautiful I love it so much! Here is a link to the site I bought it from (Amazon): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sleeping-Sirens-Light-Death-T-Shirt/dp/B00B8PJPLQ/ref=sr_1_3?s=clothing&ie=UTF8&qid=1362773610&sr=1-3

Sigh. I love them so much it's not normal.
Thursday was Stop The Clock day at school, which would have been useful for doing revision if I hadn't been doing this Microsoft/app thing. It was supposed to be some kind of 'reward' for 'good performance in work' or something. I guess that's a good thing. It means I'm doing well... right? I spent two hours having to write about my 'dreams and aspirations' and then another two hours designing an app, which I won't bore you guys with the details of, all I will say is my group consisted of me and this other guy while the rest of the people doing the Microsoft thing were in groups of four or five. I mean, the guy I worked with was nice and all, we seemed to get along really well, but it felt as if we had kind of been pushed to work together. I'm just glad that I have guy friends now, otherwise I never would have been able to have an easy conversation with that guy!
Friday was beyond awesome! For one thing, I got full marks in a psychology test we did the other week, and it was out of 50!! An A*!! I was soooo happy, S. said I screamed but I don't give a damn, I was (and am) incredibly happy with that! I only got a C on the smaller test we did, so I know I have to revise that better now, which I guess is kind of a good thing. I didn't think I did too well on that anyway, but that's okay. Full marks on an out of 50 test! Go me! Wooo!!
Oh, oh. And then I was on Facebook in the evening, just scrolling through and rolling my eyes at the bitches and douches I am friends with (grrrrr >.<) when I accidently sent S. a friend request. As a rule, I never send requests, it's just not something I do. See, my mouse went spazzy and clicked the 'Send friend request' button, and I know it doesn't sound believable in the least, but I swear that is what happened! Bright side? He accepted!!! Eeeeee!! Honestly? I realized that I liked him when I saw the notification :D Thinking on it, I probably did before, I just didn't realize how much I liked him until yesterday *blushes*
I'm a little sad about that though because he is moving to London soon, so its not like anything can happen or I can date him or anything like that... can I?

You Me At Six - Hold Me Down

Let me think. What has happened since I las wrote?

1. Awkwardeness between myself and L. has made hanging with that group basically impossible and I'm considering cutting all ties with them.
2. My best friend came for a sleepover and we totally fangirled over Supernatural and All Time Low :)
3. I've been kind of accepted into another group :D
4. I'm failing my 'best' subject beyond belief.
5. I've developed an unhealthy obsession with Fall Out Boy which I am very proud of.
6. I can't seem to stop thinking about S....

Maybe there is just something really wrong with me and I can't see it. Grrrr >.< Why are friendships so friggin hard?

On the bright side, I'm going to start doing some fundraising work with J. for our charity. So I'm becoming more and more involved in the world of charity! It makes me feel really good about myself, which I don't say very often. We came up with a long list of ideas of what to do for our fundraising. Including a catwalk, tombola, dress up day, cake sale and the favourite was to do a car wash; there are lots of problems with doing the last one though. For one thing it would be me, J. and two other volunteers having to do the car washing, and we would have to use buckets of water, making things awkward.

The plan is that if we do decide to do the car washing thing, the four of us will get a couple of friends to help out. And seeing as some of my only friends at the minute are guys.... hehehe :D That would make for an interesting day. Mmmmm.... Just wondering what S. looks like without a shirt on.... Shit! I have to see him tomorrow.... Wow, that will be awkward now I've been thinking about that...

ANYWAY.

Exams are just around the corner and I've not had chance for any revision since Thursday, which is crap. I need to get quite a bit done before my first exam, elsewise I am totally screwed.

Also, my prom dress is here! I love it sooo much and I'm really pleased we decided on the one we did. It's pretty and blue and floor length and is all strappy at the back (not thrilled about that but c'est la vie) and I feel amazing when I wear it! Sadly, I'm worried that on the night, I'll be chilling out in the corner on my own, not being able to socialise with people, which would royally suck ass. I've thought about asking S. to go with me, but he's moving to London soon and I'll miss him so much and if I mess things up I'll hate myself. If I don't do anything though, I'm scared I'll regret it so much... Maybe next time we're alone together, I'll just tell him?
