I feel like an artist.

I like this font. I think I'll stick with it.

anyway, let's go through my events of the day before I rant it out at my friends and forget it.
Since this week is state testing, freshmen get to come to school and do NOTHING the first half of the day. It's great. We watched a movie called "The ultimate gift", and then wrote down ten things we were grateful for. great movie.
I can't remember what I wrote on my list right now, but it put me in such a good mood. I'll recite it later when I get it back.

Anyway, the second half of the day was much less enjoyable. First, we ate lunch. Now, at my school, we have a funky lunch schedule. There are three lunches, and whichever lunch you get depends on your third period teacher. (Another thing: our schedule goes 1, 5, 2, 3, 4. what? chronological? who?) Since it's weird state testing schedule, all of the freshman had first lunch(along with a handful of other grades.)

So, my friends all sat at the same table plus some other kids. Including tanner and his girlfriend. Not that this bothered me. What bothers me is how damn annoying he's gotten. (For those who don't know, tanner is my ex. 8D)
I don't know what it is, but he's bothering me. Not irritating me like most annoying people do.. No, I just straight out do not like him. Plus, the way he acts with his girlfriend(awkward) reminds me of the way he used to act with me. (awkward.) And it's altogether reminding me of what an unpleasant relationship that was. ghrhgh. Whatever.

Speaking of, I've figured out just why I'm happy being single.
First of all, I was raised by my mother. I love my mom, but she's sliiiightly socially inept. Not to the point where it's noticable, but to the point where she had to teach herself to hug her own children. She was a single mom, and because of that, she was independent, which taught me to be independent.
The second reason is that my views on "love" are quite different from other girls. I really .. don't believe in true love. The perfect guy for me is someone I love and respect, whose views and personality are compatible with mine. Plus infatuation. So.. I generally look for compatible people whom I don't hate do death. So I might find someone really cool, who's really compatible with me(sorry for the overusage of that word), and I get to know them. Soon enough, they become really close friends with me. Best friends. And I'm happy that I have someone to talk to and share my thoughts with. It's like, all my best friends are my boyfriends. I .. really don't need kissy nonsense. I really don't.

IN OTHER NEWS.
