I Just Want To Strangle Some People

I was on the verge of tears last night, because I was talking to this girl from my school and she was telling me why she was so upset. Adriana is the most sweetest girl you will EVER meet in your whole life. She bakes cupcakes for her friends on they're birthdays, she passed out TONS of candy canes during the holiday season and shes just an all around great person.

You would think that such an awesome girl, everyone would love her, right? WRONG. Everyone makes fun of her just because she doesn't dress like them, doesn't listen to rap and is differant. She's not drop dead beautiful so everyone thinks that they have the right to make fun of her and put her down. It's terriable and it hurts me to see them do that to her.

So, I was talking to her yesterday and I felt so bad. She goes to such great lengths to make everyone else happy, and doesn't even expect a "Thank You" back. "Just they're smiles and happiness are enough for me." She told me. She can't see how her 'friends' are using her. =/

Then when she goes home, her family doesn't even notice that shes sitting there crying or that shes so unhappy. No one stops to notice her when she burns her hand while making her mother, father and brother dinner. No one notices why she's flipping out because she can't wrap someone's gift with they're favorite color ribbon. No one cares.

But I do. And I realize how desperate she is for a hug and someone to lean on. I'm going to try and help her as much as I can. And mom decorated a journal for her. Adriana is just like me. She's awesome with writing her emotions down, but not so great at talking about them. So, I thought that since mom offered to decorate a journal for one of my friends, I'd give it to Adriana so that she could get i all out on paper like I do.

Hopefully I can help her as much as I want to.
