Back again...
I just got back from my friend Malaea's sleepover birthday party. It was pretty fun. All my good friends from school were there. Charlotte pretty well went NuTs every time someone said the name "Edward" and started rocking back and forth and stuff because he isn't real. (Twilighters know what I'm talking about) She was close to tears.�It was slightly scary. That someone can be that obsessed.... Don't misunderstand me. I am obsessed as well. I just have more practice at hiding it (and all subsequent emotions). While all of them watched the Alien movies, I went downstairs and read. Sorry to inform you, but�I cannot and WILL not do science fiction. Never. I just can't watch it. It reduces me to tears, it scares me so much. Other than that, though, it was great. My friends were all in good spirits and as strange as ever.
Besides that, I got a chance to notice how absurd they all are. Don't get me wrong, they're all great people and I like them a lot. They're just so--forgive me for seeming like I think I'm better than them-- immature. It's incredible. We went out for supper to a buffet, and one of my friends (Mara) and I had to beg them, "Please, PLEASE don't fight or punch each other or talk about sex in loud voices." It's embarrassing. And I like them all, they're great people, just sometimes it's frustrating because... well. At times I find their antics very inane. I know I sound stuck up or whatever, but really. We're just very different, I guess. I would not be able to talk world news with a single one of them. (Well, maybe Mara, because she claims she listens to the news and reads the paper) Of course, you would hardly expect world news to be a topic at a 15-year-old girl's birthday party. But I can't help feeling so separate from them.
I have been feeling older than I really am lately. I don't know why. I've been feeling like I'm in my twenties or something... I don't know if that's good or bad, but it's pretty strange. I get a kind of jolt when I realise that I'm still 15.
Life's hard.
Suggestion of the day: Streetcorner Symphony, by Rob Thomas. Good song. He usually has good songs, so check out his other stuff if you want.
I'm going to go now. I have a ridiculous amount of homework that I can't get away with not doing.
