(no subject)
this is long, but i wrote it more for myself
i'm kind of heartbroken after tonight
because i realized how much i love david
(the kid i babysit)
he's really dear to my heart, and i to his.
we're both just losers who like to have fun and understand each other
i found out he might be moving
this is only because his mom's stupid boyfriend said he wants them to
his mom and this guy have been dating for 2 years
his mom wants him to ask her to marry him
but when you're as old as she is and you've been dating that long, it normally means it's not going to happen.
she's totally not thinking about david with this move either
he's a really big boy...
and gets made fun of at school
has like no good friends
his parents went through this huge divorce
he never gets to see his brother
he's about to go into junior high which is really tough
and she wants them to move to a new place..
he'd go to a new school
this guy who's "fat" and not athletic, but artsy-loves drama
he's so unique, and judgemental junior highers who just want to fit in won't accept him, especially when he's new
i'd know, i've been there.
tonight was one of the best nights i've ever had...
it felt like i had a real best friend again
even if he is only 10
when i got to his house i played on the piano some and he picked out things for me to play that he could sing a long with. he told me he wants me to teach him piano :]
then we got out his cd player
and danced to music in his kitchen :)
then we played darts
and went to cici's pizza and talked some
then played air hockey and arcade games
and i won a stuffed animal out of one of those machines
it was only my second try and the first time i'd done one of those!
i got a reindeer..it was a christmasy animal :)
then we headed back to his house
and watch a movie and danced to songs on it
i don't want him to move
although it does take up time to watch him and stuff
it's also such a comfort
knowing he doesn't care if i'm as weird as him
we both have fun acting stupid and saying dumb things and being kids
and i feel such a burden for him
i wish i could help
"you know the kids at school call me a pig and stuff cause i'm fat, but you know what i am half pig" (he then procedes to make this weird piggish sound and i laugh)

if only people could see beyond your outward appearance, and look deep into you, they would see just how amazing you are
by the way
i wish people would branch out
beyond their close-knit group of friends
because you never know what amazing people you could meet,
who could end up becoming the best friend you've always wanted and dreamed of
p.s. i forgot to add that tonight he said i'm the longest he's ever had a babysitter and told me sorry if he'd ever done anything to hurt me. it made me so happy
