                <description><![CDATA[ What do you guys think of them?<br /><br />Personally, I think that the new layouts are a huge improvement over the old. I like the lighter color, the easy 'edit' buttons on each section, all of it. It just makes things so much simpler!<br /><br />I hope they're here to stay.<br />c:<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ It's a lie.<br /><br />It seems like I see nothing positive in life, based on these journals.<br /><br />Definitely...<br /><br />a lie.<br /><br />-----<br /><br />Lately, I've been loving the way my life is going. I've been getting out more, talking to more people, living it up while I can before heading out into the real world.<br /><br />I've made plans for the summer.<br /><br />I've actually got places to go in the coming weeks and months.<br /><br />I've made new friends and gotten in touch with those who I thought would never like me for all of these years.<br /><br />I'm... Happy.<br /><br />It's a realization that I haven't had for a long time.<br /><br />But it's a wonderful change and I'm welcoming it with open arms.<br /><br />-----<br /><br />It's just as they say:<br /><br />"Depth of friendship does not depend on length of acquaintance."<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I am the biggest fool on the face of this planet.<br />
You may as well just rename me 'Touchstone' right now.<br />
<br />
Why?<br />
Why did I have to open my big mouth?<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
Being alone on New Year's Eve sucks. It sucks even more when you know that everyone else has plans that don't include you or can't include you. It's either one or the other, never fails.<br />
<br />
Excluded.<br />
Ignored.<br />
Left all alone.<br />
<br />
Feeling utterly worthless.<br />
<br />
I wanted something to happen; I didn't care what it was, but I hoped and I hoped for a turn of events. This isn't what I had in mind.<br />
<br />
Their comment wasn't directed at me.<br />
I jumped at it.<br />
And I fell flat on my face.<br />
<br />
I'm an idiot!<br />
<br />
I may as well pack up all my shit and cart myself off to a foreign country. That way, they can talk about me all they want and it would never, ever get back to me. I wouldn't hear them laughing because no one can keep their mouth shut about it. <br />
<br />
This is awful<br />
This is awful<br />
This is awful!<br />
<br />
Oh, why did I have to do that?!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Something awful is going to happen to me.<br />
<br />
I can feel it...<br />
<br />
The rising conflict.<br />
<br />
<br />
I fear for my safety.<br />
<br />
I fear for my family.<br />
<br />
And it's all because of...<br />
<br />
<br />
This insecurity will push me over the brink.<br />
<br />
<br />
---------<br />
<br />
My life is in an awful state, at the moment, and I'm worrying myself sick over things I shouldn't need to deal with. I'm hoping for things to improve, but, at the same time, I know that it probably won't happen.<br />
<br />
I feel like I should be seeking support, but I find that I can't relax enough to really connect to anyone lately. I don't... I don't think that anyone would willingly allow me to follow them around for a bit, if only for the comfort of their presence. I'm at a loss; I don't know what to do anymore.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I suppose I'll just keep hoping for a miracle.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <title>A typical conversation.</title>

                <description><![CDATA[ Let's keep counting down.<br />
<br />
Well, let's begin.<br />
<br />
I'll start off by saying hello to you. <br />
You say it back to me out of politeness. <br />
Neither of us is smiling behind the monitors. <br />
Our conversation can officially begin.<br />
<br />
"How are you?," I ask.<br />
"Good," you reply, "and you?"<br />
<br />
"I'm alright. Bored out of my mind," I say.<br />
"Me too," you agree.<br />
<br />
There is a pause.<br />
<br />
"What's up?," I ask, feeling a bit awkward.<br />
"Nothing much," you reply simply, "You?"<br />
<br />
"The same," I say.<br />
"Ah," is your only reply.<br />
<br />
Our conversation ends.<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
A simple string of thoughts on my own life as of the past few months. It seems as though everyone and everything that I've known wants absolutely nothing to do with me anymore. I suppose I can't blame them, but... It still aches to know that they don't even want to talk to you anymore, ya know?<br />
<br />
I keep telling myself I just need to let them go, but I can't bring myself to do it. It's really just one person in particular, but their neglect builds up, overflows, and leaves me stranded. I feel as though I'm on an island in the middle of the ocean, and they're the sharks prowling the dark waters, keeping me there.<br />
<br />
I want them to come back to me and tell me that they didn't mean to hurt to me, but I know that it will never happen.<br />
<br />
I want to confront them.<br />
I doubt my fortitude.<br /><br /> ]]></description>
