I'm NOT your biggest fan.

The one word I despise the most right now... FORMAL.

Why do we create such things? I mean I know why, but it really just makes people freak out and feel crummy about themselves (well I guess you are the one that truly makes yourself feel that way, but hey, it sure ain't helpin'). I really have no good male friends that I want to spend a whole weekend with. Honestly at this point in the opposite sex relationships I possess, it would all be horribly awkward. 

I am really okay with NOT going, but "NOOOOOO," cry the people, "YOU HAVE TO GO!!!!" Why do I have to go? My mom told me today, that I needed to go, and that she would pray for me to find a date. HAHAAAA... I love her. 

It's kind of strange, this whole boys and college thing. Everyone says, "They will be everywhere, wait until college to date, its SO much better." I have not found this to be true. They are not so much better, they are actually worse. All of the boys I meet are not worth my time. I really think it must be me, or a closed door that God has on my heart. Don't think I am trying to pity myself, because the truth is, that is okay with me. I don't want to get hurt again and I don't want to waste my time. 

Back to the subject of this 'rambly' blog. I know that I can go to formal with a "guy friend," but I simply don't want to. I just want to be left alone, formal free. 

Okay, done be cynical. It's late... I'll just sleep on it.

I think you would enjoy reading this book, "I Kissed Dating Goodbye" by Joshua Harris. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw_0_8?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=i+kissed+dating+goodbye&sprefix=i+kissed

I haven't read it yet, but some of my friends have and said it was a really good and unique perspective on dating. I heard the author's father speak at a homeschool conference and it was really good. He was speaking about courting and it was so refreshing in this day and age to hear how he spoke. It reminded me of the days of "Pride and Prejudice". So romantic!

It's great that you don't feel the need to become attached right now! Does that mean you can't go to the formal??? I mean, the pretty dress and all ;o)....
