You know how you
feel now – so isolated and alone? Wishing someone/anyone would see you/hear
you/recognize that you have value? That’s how it is, sweetie. You’re going to
be feeling that for the rest of your life. Get used to it.
And you know how
you’re always chasing boys around the playground? Writing their names on your
notebook…sometimes making up a name, just so people will think you have a
boyfriend? How the ones you like always let you know they have a crush on someone
else? That’s pretty much the way it is.
And then,
there’s school. You never manage to get your work done on time. Everyone thinks
you’re smart, but you’re really just scraping by. Too bad. You’re going to take
those lousy habits with you throughout your life and it’s really going to fuck
you up. I don’t know what to tell you about that.
You think you’re
kind of funny looking now? Well, you are. You won’t change much. You’ll never
grow out of the “interesting” stage. No one is going to be coming after you for
you looks, let’s put it that way.
And friends. You
never managed to figure out how to make it into the “in” crowd, and you won’t.
You think you feel isolated now? Just wait a few decades.The good news is that
trade off will be gaining depth and independence.
So what can I
tell you?
Don’t try to
please anyone else. Just start putting away your pennies, and putting cream on
your face now. You’re not going to like what happens when you don’t.
Don’t bother
looking for love. It'll find you, you’ll be one of the lucky ones.
Enjoy what
you’ve got now.
You'll look back
fondly at your now.
