And I know it.
But I'm going to chronicle my major fuckup, because I don't want to forget a minute of it.
I miss him already.
But I'll probably miss Jonathon Errico more now than I will in any of the days that follow.
And I kindof just feel dumb. Because I knew this was coming.
I'm not sure what I was thinking. Maybe I wasn't thinking. And maybe that's a good thing?
When I think, I don't do things that make me happy. And so I didn't think, and boy did he make me happy.
Ohhh god. In 48 hours I'll be gone. Back to NJ, then back to MA after that. With all the Massholes. Shit.
And maybe I think I miss him more than I do.
Could we have had a real relationship?
I'd be willing to bet my college education on it.
If he could just live near me.
I HATE PORT SAINT FUCKING LUCIE FLORIDA.
I will never live here again.
I can't even say when, or if, I'll be back here again, to see Jonathon.
So I can't even begin to pretend that a long distance could ever work.
But god.
I've never wanted to fight so much for anything in my entire life.
But I let him go. And now he's gone and I can't do a thing about it.
And I couldn't do a thing about it anyways. But I just wish I could.
Shit.
Am I making a mistake in not fighting for him?
It's not even like there's a fight to be had. Another time, and another place, we could've been perfect.
Of all the bars, in all the world...
I just can't do anything right.
And then, while my heart was being held together by a fucking thread, my best friend couldn't even be there.
And I'm scared. God I'm so scared.
What would I ever do without her?
I can't do this.
I can't do this without her. And I'm afraid one day I'm going to wake up and I'm going to realize that I've been doing it without her all my life and I'm going to have a mid-life crisis, or just a life crisis.
Marissa I know you'll read this someday. And I just don't know.
I love you and you're my best friend. And I'm just freaking out right now.
And tomorrow, next week, in a few months, I'm not going to care that you weren't here, right now, and I know that.
But that doesn't make it hurt any less right now.
So I'm sorry if any of that comes out the wrong way.
Maybe someday, I'll look back on this and laugh, because me and Jonathon do get our time, sometime in the future.
I'd be happy if that were the case.
Please let that be the case.
Please.
"So here's to this year being better than the last."
Hm..Where to begin.
First, this entry comes a little early this year. Throughout my time on Kiwibox, I've always made an entry on the first day of the new year to recap my year and I guess say what I hoped I would accomplish in the following year. I don't even know. Turns out I didn't do one last year. Whatever. Mostly, this is a recap on college. On where I've come from, and what I'm doing now? I can't even begin to tell you where I'm going.
The one thing that I always loved about Kiwibox was that I could never delete anything I had said without deleting the whole journal. I'm really mad that they changed that policy. I was happier when I felt like I couldn't go back and edit out my ridiculous dumbass statements from my 13 year old mind. I'm still not going to delete any of it, but let me tell you, I'm tempted.
So...I'm upset.
I'm not unhappy, but I'm upset.
Worried might be a good adjective. Or slightly delusional and probably insane.
I'm on my way to becoming an alcoholic and a whore, buttttt it's college. That's my excuse and I feel like it's a good one, and I'm not worried about that.
I'm just having an emotional night.
I would like to say that I miss home. And I miss being home and I miss the comfort that home gives me, but I'd be lying.
I love Amherst. But it's just not everything. Not that anyone can ever have everything. But there's something missing. Or not missing, there's something wrong. With me. I'm wrong. And I can cry as much as I want and that won't fix it. And I don't know how to fix it. But I want to fix it. I want to be strong and open and have friends. I miss having friends.
I fuck myself over every time. Because the only thing I've ever wanted was compassion, and I get sucked in with just the tiniest bit. And then it's gone, and I should have known better. But I never know better.
The problem is less that I run back to people who I shouldn't, and more that I run to people in the first place who are bad for me. I need a better radar when it comes to people who are douchebags and people who are genuine and nice and not terrible.
I just need to figure myself out. And I say that every time. And sure maybe I'm just saying it again. I guess we'll see. I just need to not run to the first guy who pays me a little bit of attention. Because that's what I did. Twice. And that's what fucked me over both times. So fuck Rob. Not Henry so much, because that's different and he didn't do anything wrong. But fuck Rob. Because he played me. He played me good. Like Brandon.
I'm gullible in a way that you'd never guess, but once you know about my weaknesses, you've got me on your fucking string.
So maybe for 2010 I'll concentrate on not being weak. I'll concentrate on finding something real. A real friendship, a real relationship, a real passion of mine. Something real that I can depend on.
In other words, in 2010 I'll be chasing my vodka with broken resolutions.
Cheers.
It's not like I'm even really looking for a relationship.
But I can't say I'd mind it.
I mean, I find these guys that I'm so attracted to, that actually have good personalities and actually seem like good people, and then somehow, they're attached to someone else in some way, that's not enough to make them exclusive, but just a bit too much for them to be involved with anyone else.
Fuck.
Like really.
I just need to stop. Stop doing whatever it is that I do that makes me attract unavailable guys.
I just don't want to be me anymore.
I'm that girl that guys absolutely love to be friends with. But that's it.
And it's fucking unfair.
I just for once want someone to understand me better than that.
I don't lay in your fucking bed because I want to be your best friend.
Like fuck that.
Is that what you think?
I just don't get it. And I'm sick of being that girl.
And of being that girl that's attached to guys that would never be attached to her. I'm always that girl.
I miss my car. And being able to ride in my car and fucking scream. And just scream, and scream.
I just want to scream and cry and cry and scream until my voice is hoarse and I don't have to cry or scream anymore.
Because I just don't want to be me anymore.
Ew fuckshitbitchdamnfuckewfuckfuckfuckgrossfuck.
I thought I was done making huge mistakes when it comes to guys. OMFG. Why can't I just find a nice normal fucking guy who's not a fucking creeper and who doesn't fucking creep creep creep like a fucking pro. Like WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK? I always get stuck with weird ass guys.
Ew fuck shit bitch fuck damn.
So there's this girl. And her name is FUCKING Hillary. And OH MY FUCKING GOD. The sound of her voice and laughter and the FUCKING ANIMAL FUCKING NOISES that she FUCKING makes honestly make me want to cry and sob and cry and sob and scream and cry and cry. I've never been so annoyed, angered, fucking fucking fucked by someone's voice.
Not to mention she's a huge fucking bitch.
I mean, I have no claim over him, at all, but she ASKED ME straight up if there was something going on and I told her STRAIGHT FUCKING UP that there was something going on and she had her own fucking whatever fucking fuck problems with another guy.
And the next FUCKING day she's having him give her fucking MASSAGES.
Like FUCK YOU you stupid CUNT.
And it wouldn't even be that big of a FUCKING deal. Because I really do have no claim over him and he really doesn't want a relationship. But FUCK YOU. BOTH OF YOU.
It's shit like this that fucks me up. That makes me close myself off and not be able to open up to people. Because when I do open up I get screw the FUCK over by people like this fucking CUNT of a fucking MANWHORE that I thought I could actually talk to.
And I really don't have anyone right now that cares.
SO FUCK YOU.
And it's just one of those fucking days.
I wish that I could have avoided this all together.
I don't know how I get myself in these fucking situations.
I pick the wrong fucking ones all the time.
I'm going to become asexual.
Like honestly.
Because there's absolutely no point in me even looking at fucking guys who are fucking cunts.
I love it here at Amherst.
It's absolutely the most amazing place I could be right now. And I don't regret my decision to come here in the least.
I'm not homesick at all, except a little when I think of my dog.
I love the people, and the experiences. Everyone is just great and it's eye-opening, to say the least.
However, there is one downfall that I wasn't expecting to come quite to soon.
And I also think that as soon as it came up, it may pass me by, no matter how much I wish that it wouldn't.
I met a guy.
How?, you ask, in just under a week.
That's the only question I've been asking myself, besides Why?.
A freaking week and I'm already falling for a boy and it isn't fair. Because I'm so absolutely incompetent when it comes to boys feelings.
He told me everything I want to know, and we had one great night, but he told me it had to be the last, because he can't afford to have a relationship get in the way of this last chance that he has at succeeding. Which I can understand.
But then the signals get a little mixed.
Should I still go to his room and sit and talk with him for hours?
Should I go to meals with him and the gym?
I don't know where the line is drawn, or if there even is a line at this point.
I wish that things could be a bit simpler, and I could just have a straight up answer to what's okay and what isn't at this point.
Honestly, I'd be totally okay if we just laid in bed for hours upon hours and talked about everything. Because I feel like I could.
And really, I feel like maybe I'm shutting down a little, and I don't know how to combat that.
I don't know what to do to stop myself from shutting back up and not letting the world in, because the first guy that I let in in years doesn't or can't or won't be in a relationship.
I'm just not certain what to do.
I want to scream a little.
I want to hate him, but at the same time I want to hangout with him and be with him and just hear what he has to say.
I'm just not sure.
