Numero Cinco

Bite My Tongue.

I hate it when people try to tell me that I will have a life this coming year, and that they’re going to make me hang out with people and be social. It’s not gunna happen, I’ve most likely had this conversation with them before, and it’s not a fun one. All it does is make me feel like even more of a loser. I’m not a project that someone needs to work on changing. I’m fine with how I am and how I spend my time. During the school year, I go to school, and then swim practice. On the weekends, I have practice Friday and I’m usually too tired to do anything after, and then I have Saturday morning practice. After Saturday practice, I’m either doing homework or watching TV. Sunday, I have church and it’s family day. Other times though, I might have a swim meet that could be just on Saturday, or it could be on both Sat. and Sunday. During the summer, I have practice every morning, and I usually don’t do anything after. I go out of town with my church or with family, down to Baton Rouge.
I’ve had a lot of people ask me why I don’t hang out with my friends.. I’m usually hanging out with my siblings. I like being with my family because they’re all friggin’ hilarious. I think that being part of a big family, with so many brothers and sisters, even though I know people with muchh bigger families, makes it easier to kind of disappear from the social part of high school. For me, at least.
I understand that people don’t really get why I like being alone so much. I understand that it’s probably kind of weird. I understand that for some reason, it might be annoying to some people. But at the same time, it’s not your life, so why are you trying to push me to change my way of dealing with things and ignoring them? I don’t like being around a lot of people at once, I don’t like being around people I don’t know. I like being comfortable. I’m comfortable with how I am.
