To Kill Two Birds with One Stone

          Hot Italian guy? No, I wasn't there. This weekend has been a pretty long one (literally, because it's a four day weekend) and relaxing from drama is just making it become worse. Gossip, boy drama, friend issues, annoying families, puberty; we're all here for it, especially girls. Recently I lost one of my best friends due to a guy. It's my fault we haven't been talking, I've been ignoring her; but it's her fault that she can't keep a friend like me by her side. Especially when your friend dates the guy you like. Typical movie drama. You may have seen my whole rant about this before and I'm sorry about that, I was extremely angry at the moment. I still am, but just not as much.
          Sadly most of my four day weekend consisted of sitting on the couch watching Scrubs on Netflix, reading, and completely embarrassing myself at the mall by going with my parents. I usually don't mind being around them, but they're just kind of... embarrassing. I know that's the typical thing for an American teenage girl to say, but it's true. It's not like the scenario where I say they're lame and embarrassing and most people think they're actually pretty cool (for parents). I mean, yeah, my Mom's pretty carefree and doesn't get angry too easily, but they are way too overprotective. I've never been on a camping trip without my parents (other than my Girl Scout camp) and so far they still won't let me.
          I've been reading lately, and the book I'm reading is called Kiss & Blog by Alyson Noel. It's about a girl named Winter that's ditched by her best friend Sloane, who leaves her for popularity. When Winter gains a new friend, Rey, she learns he has a blog and gets this amazing and brilliant way for revenge: creating an anonymous blog to tell Sloane's little dirty secrets. Surprisingly this book is pretty similar to my life in a way. I lost a friend because of how she has been too mean to be near, I'm becoming friends I thought I'd potentially never become friends with, and I'm talking it all out in a (mostly) anonymous blog. Oh, great minds think alike, huh? ;) My nicknames are less creative, but hey - It's easier for people to remember: K, A, Lex, E, Natli, so on. Winter's nickname for Sloane is Princess Pink, Sloane's friends are called her Pastel Posse, and Cash (Winter's longtime crush and Sloane's recent boyfriend) Captain World. She even calls herself Eleanor Rigby. I just call myself H. But soon I'll be reading Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin and The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson. If you've read and/or you're reading this comment below and tell me your opinion on them.
