I'm here to rant about stuff a little bit (heheh clarity) I remember when I first moved here to Michigan in seventh grade how INCREDIBLY excited I was. I wasn't in the least bit too sad to leave where we had been. We had been in middle of nowhere Illinois where the big problem on everyone's sixth grade mind was "Oh gosh, who will be my new boyfriend? I've already dated the only eleven boys here!" When my dad got a job here I was practically packed five minutes after we got the call confirming it. And so here we are.
When we first arrived I was set, let me tell you, I was ready to meet my bestest friend in the whole wide world minutes after walking through the door. That didn't happen of course. For the first few months here I wasn't happy. I felt so disappointed that I was just as lonely here as I was there. I became shy, and wore the same sweater every day not because I didn't have any other clothes but simply because it was comfy and I was uncomfortable. I didn't work hard in school, and often would bounce around tables looking for friendly people. We have all been there. It's called seventh grade.
I'm not here to complain though. My point here is that soon enough at a school dance I met a sweet short girl with long brunette hair who played monopoly with me in the library. She invited me to sit with her group at lunch. At that same lunch I met another girl who I had band class with who was smart and funny. After that I met a bold and nerdy girl and a blonde quirky dancer in my art class. These four were literally the first REAL friends I had. They were kind, understanding and yanked me by the hood of my purple sweater out of a really lonely time. Seventh grade sucks folks. I'm just writing this post as a thank you to them and a message to lonely people that help will come. It always does. It will probably come kind of slow and awkward though, but don't mind that. It's worth it. Thanks, founders!!
I always leave a little comment at the end, don't I? Heheh. This was kind of a weird post. My attempt at inspiration I guess. I also thank my readers!! THANK YOU MUCH FOR MAKING MY TIME ON THE INTERNET NOT LONELY!
