Emo Day in Cariland : Part Deux
July 15 2005
so. life is filled with crappy emotions. i am such a girl. i am simultaneously attracted to 2 people. it's funny how some people just get to you. like, people can (and do) criticize me all the time, and it doesn't get to me, but this one person says a single thing to me, and it just kills me. gah. i can't stand this person, and yet somehow i am attracted to them. also, people that lead me on. gosh. can't stand it. but i still find myself attracted to them. i hate my brain. i swear, if i ever get married, it will be to an older guy, because guys my age suck. but god i miss Bruce. for so many reasons. and i am so gosh darn tired of being made to feel stupid or like i am crazy or like i am unhealthily dwelling on the death of my BEST FRIEND. so many people use that term lightly, but i mean it. he was my best friend. and it seems like most everyone else that wasn't close to him has just moved right along. i don't expect everyone to dwell on it. but i'm getting really sick of the fact that everytime i mention Bruce, people either roll their eyes and tell me "Cari, that was a year ago." or tell me that they think it's time i "let bruce go" or bluntly "get over it." i will not get over it, damnit! i loved him, and i think i'm entitled to mention him once in a while. it's only been a year. and not even that. it's been less than 11 months. god. but at least i have plently of people in my life that understand, are not condescending, and do not treat me like crap. i love you guys. well, i'll be ok by tomorrow, but what i said in this entry still stands. goodnight.---Cari

1) how can you get too many remarks? 2) there is nothing wrong with hobbit feet. 3) i guess you can be an honorary semi-brown kid. 4) you don't have to get over him, and if you never do there's nothing wrong with that (as long as you don't let that control you). i would be very torn up if i lost my best friend. 5) i'm praying for you. 6) i dunno, i just like even numbers.

I understand Cari. Some people that have not experienced what you have experienced will NEVER understand what you feel. And they say the stupidist things. I have a good collection as well. Just don't let their ignorance create a bitterness in you. You are too beautiful to have something that ugly grip your soul. Read my entry from June 24, second to last paragraph. And read my xanga entry from June 15. I love you, beautiful!

i love you, cari. you need to call me some time very soon. ('speshully when you're feeling crappy) you know i'll try my hardest to make you feel even a little bit better. i know what you're talkign about... i can never shut up about bruce. and to those people who rolled their eyes at you and told you to "get over it" obveously didn't know Bruce. it's impossible to simply "get over" such a wonderful person. i loved him too and i hope to talk to you soon

well if i was a burly woman, all you would have to do is tell me who said that crap to you and i'd go wack them upside their stupid little heads. the fact is people are dumb and they don't have any idea what they are talking about. God made us as emotional beings. in fact, Jesus wept when his friend died. he went through all the grief stuff just like we do. you are NOT stupid, nor crazy. it is OKAY to still miss him like crazy and show that. you need to for God to heal you. keep turning to God and people who aren't stupid to help you through this time. i love you! and i am always here for you. if you ever just want to go out and eat or grab starbucks then CALL ME! seriously! you are my favorite! and i enjoy spending time with you! and having emo moments with you! hello, NYC remember??? i am praying for you!!! and i love you soooo much!!!
