to her own reflection she said "i will hold on"
i need to stop apologizing for who i am. i can't seem to help it. i hate being so ashamed. embarrassed. of myself. asking for people's mercy because of who i am.
i really should take on the attitude of: "here i am. you don't like it? then fuck off."
i almost feel like i have to make a list. or charts and graphs. or write a book: "Meredith Elaine for Dummies"
not that anyone's dumb, mind you. maybe if i just got broken down into little chapters, maybe i'd be easier to understand. maybe i'd be tolerable:
i am going to take everything personally.
if i don't hear you breathe, it means that you hate me.
if there is a way to abuse myself, i will find it.
i will get drunk and cry.
i will assume the worst.
i want guys to want me.
i want other guys to be jealous of the other guys that want me.
i'm going to hide all my selfish thoughts -
but know this: i'm not going to stop thinking them.
i want to make it all better,
but i don't know how.
there will be days when there is just no convincing me that life is worth living.
sometimes i will become so high and giddy off of nothing at all, but you'll swear i'm on crack.
i will do my damnedest to try and hide it when i'm upset.
then get pissed off when no one notices that i'm upset.
i have a craptastic memory.
the things that i do remember, are stupid little details that become monumental in my mind.
i am affectionate to the point of nausea.
i'll give you a hug when you need one, and even when you don't.
i want the sun to rise and set on my ass.
i want to always feel important.
i thrive on angst.
i guess that somehow, deep down, i must love my drama.
i run off after butterflies when i see them.
i like to blow bubbles.
i will bake cupcakes for no reason, but then again...
give me just a tub of cake frosting and i'll be your friend for life.
i get distracted.
"huh?" is a word i say often.
i get so much satisfaction from seeing other people happy.
i want to buy you presents.
lots of them.
i think that i confuse people.
maybe it's me. maybe it's me and my attitude towards myself that is hurting me so much. maybe i need to accept myself. REALLY TRULY accept myself. maybe it's my negativity towards myself that leads to the destruction of all the things i hold dear to me.
perhaps i'm my own worst enemy. i'm the self-fulfilling prophecy.
just so this isn't a completely depressing entry...i'll include some pictures from last weekend. you know, the night of the "mr. grabby hands" incident.
yes, i'm the dork in the white hat.
