Yeah...but I know I NEVER was like those horrifyingly giggly girls you see in packs around town. Neither is my sister. Neither was Jen, I'm bettin'.

I swear...I had girls I was friends with all the way through elementary school, but as soon as the public school ones made it to highschool, they became unbearable. Seriesly. I had two or three homeschooled friends who I stayed close to, but the others starting talkin' back to parents, swooning over boy bands, the works.

And it's happening younger and younger now, I'd say!

Some of my homeschooled acquantances were no better. Right, so most of them were no better. But a few were better.

But I was better. Of course, I was also the geeky girl in the corner reading science fiction over lunch, rather than gossiping - our homeschool co-op provided me with the chance to be a not-popular girl.

Sigh. But here I am, almost 21, haven't had a boyfriend yet. Only had one crush, but it was a bad one. And the giggly girls all have boyfriends. It'll work out in the end, I suppose...
