Today was a good day.

It's the day before a 4 day weekend. I mean, I'm going to be home alone all weekend since my dad is out of town for the entire weekend. I hope the ghosts don't get me (my house isn't haunted).

This morning went as usual, classes and stuff. I've been tired this entire week, today is no exception. I talked to a friend of mine during APUSH, she's great, I love her. Sometimes I feel like I say things and it might get annoying, or maybe it makes her think less of me or something. Or maybe I'd say something that would make her snap and then she won't like me anymore. I like her a lot though, I'm very fond of her. I'd be pretty sad if she ended up not liking me very much. She's really cool. I'll call her N, because she likes dinosaurs. I bought her dinosaur nuggets for her birthday, so N for nugget. I like N, she's really cool.

Anyways, come lunchtime I ended up not really having anything to do. Well, I mean basically before the weekends we're allowed to skip out little homeroom WIN class thing, and I was able to go out. I didn't really have plans to do anything, since I guess it was a rule that upperclassmen have to eat during their lunch hour or something. I originally planned to just wander the halls probably, or find something to do. I don't know.

I went to my locker and ran into this girl. We've talked a couple times, and I like her a lot too. She's pretty cool and I like talking to her. I'll call her C, cuz I think she's cool.

C and N are friends, like from they were kids. I think it's been about 9 years they've been friends. They're nothing alike, but I love friendships like that. They get along pretty well and I think they're both very cool.

Anyway, I go to my locker and C was around there. She ended up talking to me, and I realized I didn't need to put anything away in my locker so I ended up walking with her for a bit. She explained how she was waiting for N, and how she hates just walking around alone and with no purpose. I told her to go check if N was in her classroom, and C said she didn't want to walk by herself. I said, I'll go with you, I wouldn't let you walk by yourself. So that's what we did, we went to check if N was in her classroom, she was not. We then went to see if she was in her mother's office (N's mom is the guidance counselor), and then we saw her at the end of the hallway. She greeted us, and C said she was waiting for her, and N said she knows.

They were both going to leave, and then N said she was going to get her coat. As she was fetching it, C said they were going to go to her house, and I just sorta said I wasn't really going to do anything. Maybe just wander around. C then asked if I wanted to come to her house, and I asked back if she wanted me to come. She said she didn't care, and I agreed to go. I was excited actually. I felt kinda happy that I got to go, or that she wanted to invite me. It probably didn't mean much to her, but I was really happy.

All three of us ended up going to her house (it was like 5 minutes away), and she had the cutest little duchshund dog. I ate over there, and we talked. I had some mac and cheese with hamburger meat in it. It was good, I liked it. We joked and laughed and stuff. It was fun. N made a lot of dog eating jokes, which was funny. I loved them. I love those kinds of jokes, or when people can feel comfortable making those jokes with me. It's great. We went back to school, and I thanked C for having me over.

My underclassmen friends were asking where I was. I kind of felt bad that I didn't eat with them. But I think I was a little happy that I didn't. I wouldn't have been able to hang out with those cool girls otherwise.

I had a test in the next block, and then suddenly I started to think. I wonder if she liked me over? Did we have a good time, or was it just me? Did I present myself properly? Did I say or do anything annoying? Or anything that will make them not like me? What if they never want to talk to me again or hang out with me again? What if I did something to make then hate me?

Maybe I'm just overthinking. I dunno.

Let's just focus on my test.

Next block I also had another test. I think I did well. I mean, it was open note so I hope I did.

Anyways, here on my four day weekend. Today was good. But sometimes I think maybe they wouldn't like me. Maybe I think too much. Maybe I don't. I dunno. I hope they don't hate me.

-R.
