next door my brother and his med-school friend are talking about workouts and saying they were only buzzed last night. only three drinks. that's twenty three, and that scared me before. i don't know what i'm going to do then. i already feel like everyone has their friends.
and i'm alone on a matress shivering; too tired to look up at the shooting stars, stuck listening to their voices.
i'm not going back. because i don't feel well; and also because i want to be part of ladyfest. because i feel more welcome there. and i get stricken with fear: have i changed? and then i remember last year i skipped environmental stuff for theater.
i give things up for art easily.
i lay on my bed missing paul. missing really talking to people. missing belonging with someone.
