Where to begin...

Well.
There are so very many places where I could begin.
But which is the best?
I suppose the common, everyday thoughts might be best expressed early,
so I guess I'll do that.

Friends
Honestly, I don't think my friends realize how much I actually need them. Without them, I would be nowhere. Probably sitting alone every night, with no one to talk to, no one to hang out with. They are my life, and I think the world of each and every one of them. All are amazing in their own quirky little ways. They are all smart, funny, beautiful, nice, and pretty much the best people I will ever meet in my entire life. I love you all, guys. I will always be there for you. Never forget that. ♥

Family
Okay, so most of the time, I love my family. I love how I can talk to my mom, and how she just knows at the exact time that I need a hug or when I need to talk. I love how my dad lets me turn my music up and actually encourages it, and how he lets his training in counseling shine through when I need it most. I love how my brother and I can talk and play video games and have fun together. Unfortunately, none of them have really realized that sometimes, I just need my space. I just need to be alone, or I just need to be with my friends. But still, they are pretty amazing, most of the time.

Love.. err... Like
When it comes to crushes or people that I admire, I am very shy about letting people know what I'm really feeling. I used to be such an open person, but over time, the criticism and the taunting have worn me down. I've gone from having no boundaries to being quiet and secluded with my thoughts. I wish that once again, I was my former self and could openly admit things to people without automatically fearing the worst.

School
I used to be the smart kid. Y'know, the one with straight A's, the one that knew everything, the one that everyone would go to for answers. Now, however, I happen to be one of the more stupid people in my grade. I have absolutely dreadful grades, and the answers to no one's questions. It kills me to see myself drawn into a pit of self-loathing because of this, but hey? What can you do?

So, I guess you know a little bit more about me.
If that's how it goes and all, that is.
