I’m not really sure when people started calling me that…or who started calling me that.  I honestly can’t remember who called me that first.  Maybe it was Alison.  I didn’t think it was so frequently used, though.  Now, that’s really all anyone calls me…it’s strange.  I’m not used to having a nickname.  I used to always want one when I was younger....

The rate that I am losing friends at is unbelievably scary.

I got the solo for “Somebody to Love” in Acappella.  Score. I was nominated for “Project Uplift” at UNC. Double Score. Tomorrow is a community service day so that means three classes. Triple Score.

Today is one of those days where I feel like no one wants to talk to me. Today is also one of those days where I feel like killing everyone, so…

Man: So..do you go to High School or University or what?
Me: I'm a junior in High School.
Man: Oh, you just look so old for your age, I couldn't tell.

I really want to try and teach myself the guitar again. I have time, but I use the excuse of not having any time to make myself not feel guilty for not fulfilling my wishes. Everything is easier said than done, but I wish it wasn’t that way.  I wish I could satisfy my need to do everything I say I want to do/will do.

In a perfect world...
I would graduate with a 4.0 GPA. I would maintain relationships with all my friends, new and old. I would attend Juilliard for college.  I would major in music and become a concert pianist. You would come back into my life like it was before, and we’d live happily ever after.

WHY.
Why would you apply to a summer program which you DON’T EVEN WANT TO GO TO and take away the opportunity for someone else who REALLY WANTS TO GO TO that summer program??? Fuck college applications.  If you get accepted into that summer program but don’t go to it, it’s BARELY going to carry any weight. How can you be so selfish?

I like to think that I am independent.  I like to think that I can do things by myself.  If there’s a problem, I like to think that I can fix it, alone. I’m not independent.  I need all the help I can get.  I am the most dependent person I know, yet I still live a lifestyle where I act completely independent. I think I’ve screwed myself over.

I’m a person who cares more about other peoples happiness than my own.  I don’t mind, really.  That’s who I am.  But, sometimes I can’t help but think to myself, who is going to care about me?

You’re telling someone important about your life and they respond with ‘lol’. My life is not ‘lol’. Thanks.

It always surprises me
When the kid you think is one of the dumbest in the class ends up owning everyone.

“This is normally a DA Starbucks. I always see DA people here. Oh look! Hi...”

I feel like I always do something to push people away, or cause them to dislike me.  But I don’t know what.

Friday
I was at Noah’s apartment, trying to kill time before the In The Pocket gig that night, and I was lying on Noah’s bed watching Deniz play Fifa.  Deniz decided to go take a shower and I’m not sure what Deniz or Noah said, but it caused Noah to ask me the question, “What is on your bucket list, Kristie?” I didn’t really think about it and responded, “To live...

Get me motivated in the morning: 1) The sun.  It makes me really happy if I leave my house and it’s bright and sunny outside and it’s just me, my car, my music and the sun. 2) Driving to school by myself. I love being by myself. Especially in the morning. 3) Dr. Pepper. Drinking my Dr. Pepper in the car makes me happy. 4) Passion Pit.  Turning the bass and treble all the way up and...
