Omg I'm watching old videos of my friends and I in like middle school/beginning of high school. They are so fucking embarrassing. Like, we were so gross and we just beat the shit out of each other and screamed a lot. But it's also very amusing to watch. omg.

Let's keep our wits about us, dears.

AYANNA ROBINSON IS THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. SHE'S BEEN WITH ME THROUGH SOME OF THE ROUGHEST TIMES OF MY LIFE. SHE MAKES ME SMILE WHEN ALMOST NOBODY ELSE CAN. 

I can't believe I haven't seen her in so long. She's a precious gem and next time I see her, I'm probably going to tackle her to the ground and cry and pee myself.
