Hey, so I guess I have some big news. Oh no, it's not about me, it's just big news. One of my best friends just got engaged tonight! Yeah, it was a big thing. Every year my grade school (the one I attended from 4th grade on) has an end of the year program in which all of the grades have their own skit. Well it is kind of a huge deal in little old Concordia. So, Kelly (that is my friend) and I were sitting together watching the program when Chris (her boyfriend, and the 2nd grade teacher) gets up on stage and begins reading a speech he had written. Well right away we knew what was happening. Well after his long speech in front of EVERYONE he asks Kelly to come up on stage with him, then he proposed! She said yes, of course! Well, the one thing that I have yet to mention is the reason for my needing a drink. When I said that Chris was Kelly's boyfriend and the 2nd grade teacher, I failed to mention that he was also the guy with whom I had a little fling and almost got together with last summer before he really got to know and fell in love with Kelly. To this I would just like to ask, why do guys do that? I just don't understand how a guy can be so into one girl (me) and then sees someone else come along (one of my best friends) and then go for her instead? Oh and can I just say that this has happened to me more than once!! I think the count is to about 3 now. Damn me having such good looking and fun friends! Ha. Anyway, don't get me wrong, I am VERY VERY happy for Kelly and Chris! I guess I am just happy and a little bit jealous. How bad is that of me? I should be only happy, right? Kelly is a great girl, one of my best friends since 4th grade, why shouldn't she be engaged to a great guy? Oh and don't get me wrong here either, I am completely over Chris, have been for a LONG TIME! Well, at the risk of saying more things that I will probably regret later, I think I will stop writing now. But hey, isn't that what a journal is for?
