Don&#8217;t lose your ruler in the first week of school.<br \/>\nOctober: Dancing doesn&#8217;t require you to lose all dignity. Boots are awesome.<br \/>\nNovember: Yoga? What&#8217;s that? Draw at home, and eat lots.<br \/>\nDecember: Celebrate, tell, share, and be kind.<\/p>\n<p>So these days I&#8217;ve been thinking of what would happen if we all said what we were really thinking. I think I should try that, for example, when somebody says they like something somebody made and I don&#8217;t, I should say it. ( . . . ) No. More like, um . . . if I actually voiced what I was thinking, most people would get offended, and others will think I&#8217;m insane. I work in complicated ways &#8211; I said that before. Where am I going here?<\/p>\n<p>I think it&#8217;s weird how some people look like others, and only one person knows that. Wait, that didn&#8217;t make any sense. Today I feel pretty talkative, being the Holiday Dance and all. Plus, Pocky helps you make friends. where was I . . . ? Oh yeah. Today we talked about how boys mature later than girls. I . . . think that&#8217;s not really true. Boys really never mature. Well, neither do girls. Some people are just more able to commit themselves to something than others. Me? Mm~, I&#8217;m one of those people who hang around doing nothing, making friends with everyone, wheedling information out of people, and admiring people (&#8216;s looks).<\/p>\n<p>The song that matches my current mood is: Garden Party, by (who else) Jay Chou. But I&#8217;m listening to a slightly more depressing song. Forgot the name, and I&#8217;m too lazy to translate it. Yeah. I have a band performance later today, so now I&#8217;m cramming as much happenings as I can into this post~.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, right now I&#8217;m trying to figure out myself. Why do certain people appeal to me, while others don&#8217;t? Uh, now that I think about it, let&#8217;s not go down that road. It&#8217;ll lead to more questions, and a more darker Grace. So, let&#8217;s talk about what I did today.<\/p>\n<p>I wonder what people think of me. I know good people aren&#8217;t supposed to care all that much, but whoever said I was good? Anyways, to me, this is all very interesting material. This is like a replay of my emo phase, except lighter~ How interesting.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, this wasn&#8217;t supposed to be another identity crisis rant &#8211; this is supposed to be how much I changed in the last few months. Well, apparently, not very much. Still the same questions, same lack of answers, and same marks.<\/p>\n<p>I just remembered when we went skating last Friday. I told Nicole something, ah, interesting: &#8220;Now would be a nice time to have a boyfriend.&#8221; &#8220;What?! Why?&#8221; &#8220;Because then I could lean on him and I wouldn&#8217;t bring him down with me when I fall.&#8221; &#8220;Huh. Yeah. But he has to be heavier and taller than you.&#8221; &#8220;My point.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>September: Listen to whatever people have to say. Because it&#8217;s important.<br \/>\nOctober: Help out, and people&#8217;ll help you.<br \/>\nNovember: Write good stories, draw nice pictures, and radiate happiness.<br \/>\nDecember: Do not go through another emo phase during winter break.<\/p>\n<p>~grace yin<br \/>\nIs this even a story? Ugh . . . well, everything&#8217;s true. This is just a fruit salad of talkative me.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Or, &#8220;What Grace was thinking at those awkward times.&#8221; September: Hair grows.
