Dear Journal,

They frustrate me so much.  Dad, the people at school.  No one f*cking does anything!  Some kid today watched them shove me around, he looked sympathetic.  I've seen the odd sympathetic people now and then but this one.. got to me.

Most people look like they blame me for wearing dark clothing and listening to dark music.  Sure, I'm different.  It shouldn't matter.  

But this one looked too afraid to do anything.  He wasn't blaming me.  He wanted it to stop, but he didn't do anything.  And he pities me.

I stopped paying attention to the jerks calling me names and just looked into his eyes.  I don't even know his name, and we stared at each other.  Him looking at me with pity, and me looking at him with irritation.  Who was he to ogle at my pain?  Others got this treatment too.  I wasn't that different.  So why did he watch?

I won't write tomorrow.  Going to spend more time at mum's grave.
