Blog: Friends are man's best friend

(This is back up...)

WARNING: ANNOYING RANT. DO. NOT. READ. Unless you want to be offended or pissed off. Or want to have a look at my problems. Rants just have to come out, you know man?

I'm preeeeeeety sure we all have friends. Even my anti-social brother has a friend. So we all know the problems connected to having friends. Frankly, they can be quite a pain.
Now I don' want to get ahead of myself. I like having friends. I lost my ability to make friends a few years ago, so it's awesome to still be close to all my friends. I've made a few new friends too. It's all nice.
However, I guess I'd like to rant a bit about some of my friends. Just want to get this out.

So I have one friend, who I shall call Chronos, is being somewhat of a bother to me right now. (If you read this, no offense man... sorry about having to post about this.) She, out of all my school friends, is the one I have known the longest. She is quite the amazing artist, with her scribbly-real pictures. She is also a jazz flute. That is quite an achievement, by the way. She really is awesome, and we've been pretty close friends.  The problem is with recent events.
For one thing, she missed my birthday. I TAKE NO OFFENSE. She had art, and I know it. Plus I don't like holding grudges. But after art, me and some friends were walking around town for the art festival in town. She was with some of her other friends. We met several times, and each time went our separate ways. The thing that got me was that she honestly never joined our group for the festival.
For one thing, I:
A) Have never missed a party she held, often helping help her set up. Never missed her birthday (Though never always got her a gift. I suck at giving gifts T_T)
B) Would it have killed her to join us for a bit? Or even for the after-festival party at my house?
Next, there some more recent things. Chronos sits next to me in one class. We have typically been like normal friends who sit next to each other: Pretty friendly. However, in the recent months she's been all but silent to me unless it's needed. She's also been friendly to some people I could never like. Not to mention how, just today, when I was joking that I'm the nicest person in the world, she remarked "No, you're defiantly not."
Yeah, that's nice. I was joking man. And you knew it.
Now let's end this on a good note. Chronos, I still want to be your friend. I'm afraid I can't admit this kind of thing in person because I can't. I can't do that kind of thing. But I want you to cheer up. It's hard to make this work when you sulk around whenever we do anything. Relax. Have fun. We can make this work. I still want to be your friend.

And here's to someone different. 'Jpeg'. You know who you are. You probably will read this. Please... Don't get upset. And don't bring it up in English. That's just awkward man. For me. I have honor.
Now Jpeg is another old friend. She was one of my first of three friends I made in one year. I think I spend more time with her then any of my friends (Out of school). We have some similar interests, or at least we did. But we're still really good friends.
The problem of the day is change. When she moved up into middle school, she changed. She had the biggest change this year. I suppose it's normal, but I do not like it much. It doesn't seem to be a change for the better. She has had some friends for maybe two years (That I remember) who are guys I do not get along with. I don't mind much, but can get on my nerves. I can't hang out with Jpeg without one of them tagging along at some point. One of them is actually a nice guy. I've known him for awhile (Though haven't spent time with him for many years). However, he is probably a druggie and still not  fully great person.
I'm concerned for Jpeg. She has pretty strict parents, and I can observe psychologically that she wants to show she isn't perfect or something. (I'm not going to go on about this- I don't want to assume).
Also, Jpeg is a very different person inside school. We don't do much in school. Not too close. I feel like she's only my friend out of school, and in school she is only somewhat a friend. Like someone I hang out with a little bit.
Also, she has been acting more stupid in school. Jpeg, you are not stupid. I know you aren't. So god stop acting like it.

-Rant done-
