Hi, my name's Ariana Lepton, and let me give you a few fun facts about myself:

Stuff I'm good at:
-Eating,
-Screwing things up

Stuff I suck at:
-Life,
-Being nice to certain people,
-Life,
-Relationships,
-Life,
-Babysitting (it seems)
-Life

I've decided to give up on boys this year, which won't exactly be hard since there aren't exactly many falling at my feet. Either way, I'll be damned if I don't drag my best friends down with me. 

We'll be rocking the town together, friends forever.

That's if new boy Dan doesn't come in and mess up my plan, which would be pretty typical of my life.

I guess I'm swimming in a Sea of Dreams, and I think I'm going against the tide. 

But that's me for you. I'm like marmite- in some weird, metophorical world- you either love me or you hate me.



*I'm trying this out so please let me know what you think, in comment or message, thank you!!*

You Take My Cares Away by Eternal_Moonlight13
7 parts Ongoing Mature
Change often comes unexpectedly, reshaping our lives in ways we never anticipated. When I started high school, everything around me shifted. My best friend began focusing on her music career, leaving me feeling left behind, just watching her life unfold from a distance. I had no idea she'd go on a tour that would take her away from me, and with each passing day, our once-close friendship faded into a distant memory. That year was filled with self-doubt and sadness. I clung to the memories of our laughter and shared dreams, which now felt like a painful joke. Her absence left a mark that took years to heal. In my sadness, I pulled away from everyone, closing myself off. I stopped doing the things that used to make me happy, convinced that I didn't deserve joy without her. Life pushed me to move on, and I chose to start fresh in a new city. There, I found a group of friends who helped me rebuild the trust I had lost-not just in others, but in myself. For the first time in what felt like forever, I saw a glimmer of hope. I was slowly putting together the pieces of my broken identity. But just when I started to feel like myself again, fate had other plans. Out of nowhere, she appeared at my door, a ghost from my past seeking forgiveness. Her presence was both comforting and painful, a reminder of the girl I once knew and the friendship we had. But I was no longer that same person; I had changed. I fought to suppress the emotions that surged from memories I thought I had buried deep within. I wanted her to see that I was okay without her, that I didn't need her anymore. Yet, like always, she broke through my defenses, and I just couldn't keep those feelings locked away forever. Now, everything is coming back to haunt me, crashing down like relentless waves. I'm struggling to hold myself together as I feel shattered. She doesn't grasp the pain I endured after she left, but I know I must find a way to reconcile with her and confront the scars that still linger in me.
