i do

i don't know how to start, so i'll start by saying hi and telling you that i'm more of an introvert than an extrovert.  i don't like ice cream, it makes me feel sick. i prefer cats to dogs. i'm not clumsy but i did fall down his stairs, and my head gets like this when i see him

i would rather have a boyfriend than a crush, but i guess right now a crush will do. i do like the sound that metal makes when meeting the ground on a 1200 pound foot...if that makes sense to anyone. i don't like the way i look in pictures. i don't like being around a lot of people but, i guess i don't like being around small groups of people either, it just means less people to avoid with more of a consequence in getting caught not saying hi and making eye contact. 

this boy put it perfectly once, he said; "i would rather talk to people who want to listen to me than talk to people who could careless about me and my opinion." 

i do remember one of the first things he told me was "this may sound weird but your voice is really cool." i do know that was the weirdest but coolest complement i've gotten. and i do know this line from someone's favorite song has been stuck in my head for months; "just promise me we'll be alright..." 

i do know i've repeated that line in my head because that someone gives me hope, of something. i do prefer books to movies. i don't like rap music even though thats all that seems to float through these halls. i do know my favorite quote came from a movie i have yet to see. i do know my favorite view is from a small aircraft thats 30,000 feet above ground. it means something new. 

i barely know who roosevelt is and the power that comes from that name but i do know lee and the smell of fresh bread coming from her kitchen. 

i do hope i can make at least one of them proud.
