I think I need to have a more positive outlook on people. ie. Give people a chance.
Yesterday I got in a fight with my mom over money. I was about to get on here and write when I decided I should go to a friend's house to try to lean on them. I tried Jeremy, he was going somewhere. But I realized I should have tried Shelby anyway. I have never gone to her for anything like that, but I remembered Sue had some family problems and went over there.
In conclusions, I felt better, and I should just learn to jump out on limbs and just give things a try.
Tonight was the Sadie Hawkins dance. I asked someone really random, someone much different than me but like me. He's in band, he is really funny, he is hard core karate guy, knows some ball room dancing, very goal oriented, and he is in my physics class. At first I asked because I knew it would be fun, but as the week went on, I decided that he has the possibility to be more than a school dance date. You see, he is like me in the fact that he has things in life that he likes and he does them. But unlike me in the fact, that he is in a different genre: Music. Not to say I have never learned guitar or written a song, but I do those things as occasional hobbies.
People who label people believe that they themselves are labeled, when really, we are all just people: people who are attracted to different aspects of life.
We should not label people for negative reasons. ie. Ian is a band geek, but I like that. Usually geek has a negative connotation. or band geek does.. but not for me.
I hope people see past labels. We will get to know people more than we ever imagined.

I love your point-of-view. I'm glad you found someone to talk to.
So the boy you asked was Ian?
That post i removed.. I basically accused you of being ian. but i realized he did not know this blog existed at 7:26 AM this morning. But yes.. it is Ian..
Hahaha, no, I am not Ian.
I did used to know Ian pretty well. He's a great guy.. but the only concern I have is that he gets very clingy. Not just to girls he dates (though that's the area he gets most attached to) but just to people in general. He has reason to, he's had some family problems. I'm just concerned because I know you don't have time for busy right now..
Your strength is encouraging.
I want to apologize. I was quick to judge.
HA you sound like you have some experience with Ian? Just a guess.. but, so far he is very well rounded, has alot going for him. Nothing not to like.. I actually.. really like him.
