I think I might have appendicitis... and what's bothering me most is the idea of missing so much class if I have to go to the hospital.

I completely forgot Tangst until today. Without the help of this blog I never would have received my High School Diploma. Thanks guys for listening to me and giving me advice when no one else cared. You have done a great deal more your community than you realize.

I always knew what I was gonna do with my life. Then I switched my major sophomore year. I'm a junior and I'm probably going to switch it again. So much for getting out in four years. Heck, so much for getting out in five...

I've been allergic to nuts all my life and just got re-tested and found out I'm not actually allergic to peanuts! So I just had my first PB&J in 10 years.

I totally took them for granted as a kid.

Does anyone else spend an enormous amount of time on facebook looking at wedding pictures?

I guess we're getting to that age. I never thought I, of all people, would say this, but it's really exciting.

People on Tangst are some of the cruelest, most judgmental people I've ever known.

The Internet makes people too brave.

For the past four years of my life I've been commited, stuck, and unhappy in a relationship. We've broken up for long periods of time within that 4 year span and each time we slowly crawl back and meet each other in the middle, its become routine really.. and once again we're in the act of crawling back, i just want to be happy again and i know this is not the way to achieve that but i feel like theres nothing else. I'm the sort of girl thats never satisfied being single. Someone please distract me from this routine, change my ways.. i manifest for the best.

Dear Summer, please end like rtfn. I'm sick of it being way too hot and boring all the time. Yeah, sure, there are the occasional beach trips and parties but that doesn't excuse the mass quantities of fucking nothing that you hurl at me every day. A month and a half left? I don't know if I can make it that long.

He was a pedophile and an awful excuse for a human being but all of a sudden his greatest critics are turning into his greatest fans. Our generation didn't grow up with Michael Jackson, he was never black to us, he's always been this gonzo weirdo who dangles babies out the window. I didn't like him when he was alive and I am not going to pretend that I am sad he's dead.

I can't really remember why my life is worth living.

This summer is very difficult for me. First of all, it sucks pretty badly living at home again after being independent for a year, an issue that many of you can probably relate to. Secondly, my boyfriend lives in the town I went to college in, only 2 hours away but still difficult to see each other what with clashing work schedules and all. I miss him. Thirdly, I've spent the last 3 summers of my 4 years in NC with who is now my ex boyfriend, so it's just kind of throwing me off. I don't remember what I did during summers before him. There's so much time to fill. My mom is pushing me to get back together with him, because she likes him a lot. So this is making me angry, on top of that, I guess my mom isn't used to not mothering someone so she turned to MY dog to baby this year. So I come back home to her telling ME how to treat MY DOG. Explaining my feelings doesn't work with her either. Nothing works. Everything is irritating me and as much as I'm trying to have a positive attitude, the people around me just keep rubbing me the wrong way and pushing me until I feel like erupting in anger and harsh words. Just the pile up of things. Grr. Thank you for letting me vent.

Sometimes I wish I wasn't the type of person that has an impact on people's lives. I just can't manage to leave anyone without them breaking.

I leave for "home" tomorrow.

Though this summer's activities will mirror those of last summer's my general outlook has changed dramatically. Since I graduated with a boiling hatred of all of the people I was ever close to in high school, last summer was the best summer of my life. I could run away and kick the dirt in their faces and never, never, never look back. Every smile was a huge "fuck you" to everyone who wrote me off as a bitch or a whore or a crazy person. I was free of them and what they thought would never, ever matter again. They didn't know who I was and they still don't know. Their b, not mine.

This summer I leave these mountains knowing the absolute greatest people I've ever met. Instead of running far, far away from here I'm being dragged kicking and screaming. Sure I will laugh with my neighborhood friends back home- we'll party and go nuts and spend the summer shining like water under the sun. I will frown on the inside, though. I don't know if I can be truly whole and happy knowing that I'm not with the people to whom I belong.

I'm having major issues accepting my own mortality. Has everyone already realized that they're really, really gonna die? Am I late in seeing this, or is this the next phase in growing up? Am I the only person who feels a clock ticking in the back of their mind? Everything is going so fast, I'm scared that I'm going to blink my eyes and all of a sudden I'm going to be on my deathbed. I'm terrified. I love living.
