Heey,

My 13th birthday is in 25 days. I'm still in the process of deciding whether or not I should end this book, y'know considering the title.

-

So yesterday I did the twenty mile walk for hunger thing in Boston and

WOW

Everything from my hips down hurts so badly. Seriously I can't walk because my feet hurt so, so, bad.  And I have a wicked bad sunburn on my face.

Just oh my gooooooosh everything hurts and my mom let me stay home from school today. Thank the swweeet lawwd because I had gym today and um just no.

So right now I'm on my couch watching Jerry Springer.

For those of you who don't know what Jerry Springer is, it's a little reality show where people come on TV and make fools of themselves by taking DNA and lie detector tests, blah blah blah.

Some people.

Boys are so stupid I'm confused because of this:

*flashback to idk like a month or so ago*

So there I was sitting in the very back of the bus. Minding my own business, just being my innocent little self, not bothering a soul. Oh by the way I was listening to music on my tablet and reading a book.

So (let's call him Mahamed) Mahamed - one of the more pleasant eighth graders- reaches over from the seat in front of me and sticks his hand in the front pocket of my backpack and I was just so confused I didn't stop him. So he unplugs my my headphones and plugs them into his phone. Okay at this point I was just like,what the eff does he think-

And then he yanks my earbuds right out of my ears.

"Mahamed what the hell?"

As he's in the process of putting my earbuds in his ears he says in a totally serious voice,"You let that happen."

I was dumbfounded when he continued to put in my earbuds.

Um no.

Again, "Mahamed what the hell?"

And he goes,"Oh sorry," and gives me one earbud.

So I took itand we ended up listening to music together for the rest of the ride. The first song he played was Slim Shady.

Did I mention he was still in the seat in front of me the whole time?

Moving on...

*flashback to a few days ago*

Again, sitting there innocent in the back. This time I only had one earbud in (omg I was reading The DUFF but I haven't watched the movie yet. The book is soooooo good though I highly recommend it) and he reaches over from the seat in front of me and grabs the other bud.

So I asked,"Do you like ?" And he asked what we were listening to so I told him it was 5sos' cover of I Miss You.

He did one of those "ehhh..." things, turned it off, and started looking through my music. Most of it he didn't like but some of it, such as the twenty All American Rejects songs I have, he was okay with.

At one point he was leaning over the seat and the dumbass dropped his phone and accused me of swatting swatting it out of his hands. I think he was joking though, I'm still not sure.

Anyway, he pulled my backpack off of the seat and onto the floor- I thought he was going to use it as like a potential cushion if I swatted his phone out of his hands again.

But he actually..

Sat next to me.

Which is weird because he'd never done that before. Anway, so he plugged my headphones into his phone and he let me pick the first song.

The first one I saw was All The Small Things *Yass* so obviously I put it on and he gave me this sideways look like he was judging me so hard.

(In the midst of all this he pointed out something that got me really embaressed and I just like wow it was kind of hard hard to say "yeah" when he asked if I were 'okay' but whatever kids are cruel)

One of the next songs he played was called 'Draft Day' I think so I asked him if he liked sports and he got all mock defensive.

He then accused me of calling him fat and I just.

But when his stop came he left really suddenly and he didn't say goodbye.

I don't know I guess I was kind of dissapointed because it was kind of like that whole thing never happened.

That was last Thursday.

On Friday, he didn't say a word to me at all. He didn't even look at me so I was kind of wondering what I did wrong for him to ignore me.

Then he was on the walk yesterday and we exchanged a couple of sentences but he kind of looked annoyed but I don't know.

Boys are so weird sigh

-

Speaking of the walk again (oh btw I didn't finish I only made it to 16.5 miles so I feel like a major failure right now.), we were divided up into groups so obviously I grouped with my squad (except Kat The Shady Bitch wasn't there which is completely fine with me considering how done I am with her crap and the way she treats people) but Marilyn (lol let's call her that) kept venturing off with Graceland  (an eighth grader) and leaving me alone with Laquifa (again, not a real name). Laquifa and I are really lazy people but she is just wow. She complains about walking 70% of the time. So she started lagging behind around mile 14 and I stayed with her and tries to tell her we should hurry up I couldn't see Marilyn anymore.

But nooo.

Then the group texted us and apparently they were already on mile, like, 16. So it was just me and Laquifa against the world. Two people with back problems and aching feet on their own. Life.

So anyway, when we found the buses I almost cried tears of joy I was so happy thank god because I thought we would never find them.

On a totally unrelated note I did "that thing" again and I'm sorry. I'm so friggin sorry I just... I don't know what I've been thinking lately. I'm sorry
