writing an arvianna entry instead of my paper. yay.

still sick but convinced im getting better.

trumpet girls sleepover was interesting. id forgotten how divisive and exclusive some peoples comments could be. the put downs, the avoiding of certain people or groups of people. lately ive tried to look past the social labels put on people, forgive the occaisonal annoyances, and appreciate people. ive distanced myself from a lot of the nastiness, and when i do hear it, im ashamed to know that i used to subscribe to a lot of that line of thought, and to some extent prolly still do.

some people are just oblivious, one commented. regardless of what it was really about, in my mind it was referring to the social conventions, or their "place" on the social "hierarchy". and yeah, i know about it, wish to god it didnt exist, and have no idea where i stand on it. quite frankly, dont want to know and dont care anymore. ashamed that i used to care, though.

but i love the friends i do have in the section. especially since they all take such good care of me. im realizing this specifically being sick lately. so lets end on this positive note, that im really grateful for my friends.
