Top Four List

I'm not even going to flip a coin. I'll just assume it will come up tails.

It's a little weird how I remember things from my first three years of high school, but I have a difficult time remembering anything from my last year. Well, there are some things that I can't forget, but I try hard to do so.

I led a girl on. Kind of. She became interested in me, even though she had never met me before. I wasn't really attracted to her, but I thought she was nice. So I hung out with her and things weren't awkward. Towards the end of September, another girl tried to grab my attention. She was very outspoken about how she liked me, and I thought it would be interesting to see how things went.

At the time, I had a bench to myself on one of the buses we used for football games. She decided to start sitting next to me. I didn't object, and figured it would be nice to have some female company. She was into me, and it seemed like it would be good. Really good.

In October, it started to get cold, which was rather early for Dallas. So everyone brought a jacket or a blanket for our time in the stands. She choose to bring a blanket. And she chose to use it on the bus as well. Needless to say, blankets have another function besides keeping someone from feeling cold. (Mistake #1)

I made plans to spend time with her one afternoon. At her place. With her parents gone. (Mistake #2)

I dumped her the next week. (...No, that wasn't a mistake. Maybe it was bad on my part, but it wasn't a mistake.)

The first girl I mentioned and I went to see a movie together. (Mistake #3)

I never gave her the "let's be friends" speech. (Mistake #4)

I made a few other mistakes that I don't want to mention. They are things that no one knows. Those that I listed above are known to at least a few. That's why I don't feel uncomfortable listing them out online.

A while back, I was trying to figure out what my weekends were like. I remember that my Fridays ran long, and that I stayed up pretty late. But it wasn't until a day ago that I remembered what happened on Saturdays. I would wake up around noon, and just search for anything to watch. If there was nothing on TV, I would go to the computer and listen to music. If that was too boring, I would call people up. Or at least that's what popped into my mind.

I also had a Playstation by that time, so that kept me busy on the weekend. (I'd spend anywhere from 12 to 20 hours a weekend with that Playstation. Now, not so much.)

Either way, it's late again, and I don't feel like staying up until 1PM.
