These Words I'll Never SayApril, 2004
I must say a word about jealousy. I don’t feel it. But when word of his relationship spread around, I could no longer focus on reading my book, nor my studies. Which is odd, because education is obviously far more important than a petty—dare I say—crush. High school relationships are pointless. Everyone breaks up by the end of high school. Sure some people form genuine, loving relationships last past that; but the people who irk me to no end are the ones who get into a relationship for the sake of being in one. And it seems like that was the kind of relationship he was in. How typical it is for the popular girl to snatch the popular, new guy away before anyone could lay eyes on him. I don’t like her and it’s not because I am envious of her being with him. I shan’t speak of her name. I just blatantly dislike her for no reason since day one. Is that so wrong? Apparently Luhan is her first boyfriend. And from what I’ve heard, she is his first girlfriend too. First times are precious. It is for that sole reason that I am oh so jealous.
