Testing out the new blog layout. I decided to just go simple.
Ok, so I ran out of creative ideas.
But whatever. I'm in a better mood then in my last post! Which is funny because I posted my last post about 15 minutes ago. I had an orange. It made my day.

Crumbling
I don't want to come home to this
Standing here, all alone in the mist
School alone left me doubting the people who "got my back"
Now my entire life is off track
Did you ever stop to think "does she need this?"
Do you ever even stop to care?
I know I'm probably the last thing on your mind
But please
Will you ever stop and ask if I'm there?
I waist all my time worrying about you
It never goes the way that you plan
But I don't understand
Why everything has to be so unfair
I don't want to have to stand here
While you forget about the way I might feel
I'm sick of hearing you scream all the time
I don't want to have to try not to cry
It wasn't my plan to have to stop and stand
Holding my ground as it falls
Crumbling down
This poem describes my day today. Sucky.
So I went to school, dressed in an awesome outfit, completely confident. Lunch today:
"Emma remember when you brought that picture to school of what you wanted to get your hair cut like?" Morgan said.
I didn't know where this was going, "Yeah...?"
"And we were like, 'So you want to get your nose pierced too? And your hair turned back?' She was totally emo." Morgan said. I started to get mad.
"Yeah the 'Emo haircut'." Rachel said. Going along with it. No sound in her voice told me she didn't agree.
"Her hair was brown. And-" I tried to defend myself. (and sort of failed)
"Yeah and her nose pierced! Probably her belly-button too." Morgan contributed.
"My cousin has her nose, AND belly-button pierced. She isn't goth or emo." I said, half lying about the nose piercing.
"Wow." Rachel said. Not letting down her ground, but more thinking it was a lame point.
"Yeah, and Emma went through an Emo phase too." Morgan said as if I wasn't right in front of her.
"You know what? If you're not going to be nice, then I'm leaving because I'm not going to take it." I said, not loud enough, but enough for a short silence to overcome the table. (Maddy P., Ayaho, Morgan M., Grace D, and Victoria were also at this table, talking quieter then Morgan and Rachel. Bee was/is sick.)
I left. Morgan M. followed. "UGH!" I said to Morgan M.
"God, Morgan was being really mean. She's still going on about it."
"I KNOW! What the heck?"
Morgan ranted about Morgan D. for awhile about how she's "not even good in Basketball! Since her dad's the coach her team ALWAYS gets the ball first in skrimage. She told the team that we were bad!" I just nodded, glad Morgan would listen, but mostly that she understood.
"What's up?" Emily came up next to us in the hallway (which we were standing in for way too long).
"Did you hear Morgan?" I said. I regretted my words, Emily's not known for keeping her mouth shut, but I needed to talk to people. And hey, they were willing.
"No. Why?" I gave her the 'what-do-you-think?' look. She nodded her head.
"Morgan doesn't know when to stop!" Morgan M. said. I sighed, happy that some people are on my side.
So now I'm evilly hopeful that more and more people will see that Morgan's not the perfect little princess everyone thinks she is, like I've known for a LONG time.
But the big point is that Rachel, my 'best friend' who I thought would stand up for me, didn't. The person who's been the nicest this whole week, failed me. Like everybody else.
I keep thinking though, Bee would've stood up for me. She just wasn't there to. But honestly, no one who knows Morgan enough goes against her.
FPS (Future Problem Solvers) regionals are on Saturday, I leave Friday after school to a hotel to meet with most of my team and swim. I'll tell you if we get first.
Did I mention my parents are in a fight... again?
I really don't have time.
