Well, not really a desert, but yeah, it's kinda dull here. Towards Austin is more populated with more to do, so I'm sure it's more fun there.
Drama can travel pretty easily anywhere. In a small town, it doesn't have very far to go before it's everywhere, and a bigger place has more people to spread it. For the most part, I stayed out of high school drama since I never really put myself out there and in the way of it. I just sat back and watched most of it from afar and, as twisted as it may sound, I enjoyed it. I all kinda made me feel better about myself and my position in everything. I guess it was a bit of a reminder saying "hey bro, shit happens to other people too" and that other people can be just as messed up.
Yeah, I'm definitely looking forward to that. I'm not the type of guy to go out and just date random girls to pass the time. Ideally, when I look for someone, I want to find the right one right away. However, I realize I'll probably have to go through some shitty relationships before I find the one that sticks. As for being myself, that won't be a problem at all; not only am I not creative enough to make up another me, but it would just take way too much effort to keep a charade like that going.
Heh, yeah, that turned out pretty well for you. Can't really say I'm one for party going or making out with strangers myself, though the thought would certainly cross my mind if there was a cute girl involved. The thing about that whole friend thing though is that at least half of the friends I talked to at school, possibly more, were girls, many of which I've known for years. I think that, in most cases anyway, if you spend too much time as just a friend, that's probably about as far as things will go. Though, now that we've all graduated high school and are all going away, that leaves me with practically nothing but new people to start fresh with, so that should possibly give me a chance to make something happen before I get caught in that dreadful Friend Zone.
