There's gonna be a million people...
"That love Allen Iversen. There's gonna be a billion people that hate Allen Iversen. Concentrate on the ones who care about you, and keep steppin'."
Sage advice.
I fluctuate between angry/indifferent/cheerful nowadays. This is a very common disease, known as adolescence.
Well my class is not perfect, I figured that one out. But then again, what is?
It's so ridiculous on many levels. I have tons of friends in the J2. I have lots of friends in the J1s too. When I went to the SMUN, Pre-U Sem, I made lots of friends. I don't really think I am the problem.
So why can't I make some in my own class? Of course, there the good people. And there are the bad. And there are the indifferent, which is nearly as bad as the bad.
I don't say much, I am reserved, I like to keep to myself, I like to listen to Axl and Slash rockin' out on my iPod better than chatting with people. Is that a crime? That's how I was made, man. It might not be the most sociable behaviour but I've gone this far.
I had my tag up. 'I don't want to hate A05'. And it's true. I desperately don't. But it's hard sometimes, especially when I feel that the sentiment is mutual. One girl in particular. I never fucking did anything to her and the sneers, the snide looks, the rude interruptions when I'm talking? Oh please bitch, you're way out of your league.
I didn't go to the stupid sea-sports carnival, ok. Fine. I wasn't even bloody rowing anyway, I asked Jian if I could row and he said better not...so I stayed home. But it looks like it was akin to a sin, according to some.
I'm gonna do what AI says and divide up my list of people I know. Okay, first. People who really should be somewhere far from me. Then my reasons for living.

That looks like it really. I'm not vengeful, I've mostly forgotten whom I've fought with.

Whoa. I am much-loved.
I have allies, friends, people who are good and strong and worthy of respect.
I'll concentrate on them, and keep steppin'.
