Does anyone really know what time it is?

You know what's great? Friends. Especially friends who ask you how you're doing. Especially friends who won't take "Ok" as an answer. I love having friends who know when "Ok" is a big fat lie. I love having friends who don't mind when I go on and on about how I'm feeling sorry for myself and don't once tell me that I'm being stupid. I've been feeling sorry for myself lately. And I talked to a friend about it. And you know what they told me? That it's ok to be sad sometimes. Just as long as it's not all the time. And they reminded me, without really reminding me, that I have a billion and one things to be thankful for. Like friends. Not everyone has friends like I do. And I get to go to school. A darn good school at that. Those are pretty good things. It's just that sometimes I get feeling down and feel like my friends don't want to listen to me vent...They'd rather just hear the "Ok" lie that I tell so very often. But I should just remember that I have friends, or at least a friend, who doesn't mind listening to me vent for a while, as long as I can remember the good stuff. Why waste time feeling sorry for yourself when you can get it off your chest and go on with life? That's just silly.
P.S. The friend referred to in this post totally knows who they are...So this is my way of saying thanks. Now I need to study because Bio is gonna kick my arse.
