Fuck
Do somethin’
Why don’t you do somethin’?
What makes you laugh easily?
I wasn’t popular in preschool, kindergarten, or middle school. It wasn’t until I got contact lenses and my braces taken off that I started to look somewhat decent. Even then, I’m not entirely sure how I managed to be friends with a majority of the people in my graduating class of over 500 students.
I haven’t been laughing much these days, but flipping through my old yearbook and reading messages my friends left brought back a rush of memories. A lot of them made me laugh. God, we were so unhinged.
Darlene wrote this message. Shrunken head. LOL. That was our code name for a guy she liked but he had no idea she even existed. She was such a simp for him. But she never went up to him and struck up a convo or anything. She just watched him from afar and had fantasies about the two of them together.
She was easily one of the smartest people I knew. She was sharp, sassy AF, and intimidating especially if she didn’t like you. She was German, privileged, and living a life that was completely different than mine. Her parents gave her whatever she wanted because they felt guilty about getting divorced. I remember once I went with her and her dad to their cabin and he was looking at me a little too much. It gave me the ick. She barely studied, cursed like a sailor, drew extremely well, disrupted class for about 40% of the time, and still aced all her exams.
We all knew that her house was the place to hangout or have sex, mostly cause her parents were divorced and barely around. It was all fun and games till one of my classmate’s parents found out that their daughter was having sex at Darlene’s house and there was no supervision at the home.
