1. You do not NEED a girlfriend. You may WANT a companion, but nobody NEEDS a bf/gf. I've recently discovered that.
2. I totally understand the whole wishing to be back in another time, the way you used to be, totally ignorant to some of the things that bother you now. You have to think, would you rather be ignorant and "happy" or would you rather have the knowledge that you've accumulated and be plagued by constant thought. It's really hard to decide, but the truth is that you can try to be who you used to be, *I've tried* but you never get back that feeling.
3. Well done with working up courage to talk to the girl. It's hard to do that, to put yourself out there and become so vulnerable, but if that person is really right for you, if they are your friend, you shouldn't have to worry about rejection. Whatever happens happens, and there's not much anyone can do about anything that has to do with love and the like, it just runs its course. All you can do is be pseudoconfident and wing it, you've really got nothing to lose. It's only high school, after all.

---I've found this new way to live. Don't hold back what you're thinking. Laugh out loud if you see something funny. Dance in a crowded room, serenade a friend, serenade a foe. Timone and Pumba your life, don't worry about it. Make plans for the future, but keep your options open, you can do anything. When it comes to love, be yourself and try to be satisfied with what you have. Don't let a girl get you down, no matter how beautiful or smart or talented. Love your friends. Love those that can possibly be your friends. Find pleasure in everything in life. If someone talks shit to you, just laugh, why get so worked up? Pride? No reason. Take risks. Try something new. Cook with fresh herbs. Listen to 80's dance rock. Sing in the shower...loud. Let your eyes wonder when walking down the halls at school, maybe make eye contact with random people, sometimes it freaks them out, and thats fun. Stare up at the sky, not the sun, but the sky and watch the clouds move, breathe in the wind. Act like a kid again, blow bubbles and attack someone with silly string. Call up any random friend and just talk, even someone you're not very chatty with. Go on an adventure: go to the mall and follow a specific person or group of people from a distance. Guess their names and occupations and relationship to each other. Hug a random person. *Kellen kissed me on the cheek one day, and we held hands, randomly* Let go and find the beat to a song, bang your head until you get dizzy. Go buy a flinstones push pop. Live---

These are the secrets to life according to me.

With love and well wishes,
Danielle
