Ahhh fairs! It just deserves that "ahhhh" because they're just so damn spectacular! And I swear, I'm not being sarcastic.
There was a fair this past weekend, and because I went from "party every Friday-Sunday girl" to "rarely go out/socialize" the fair was a big deal for me. (I was grounded for a really long time this year and then out of frustration I kinda grounded myself, so as you can imagine, I'm a really grounded, down to earth person now. Lol.)
So one of my best friends was staying in another town with a friend so she couldn't come, and my other best friend was MIA all week due to a "family emergency," and because I'm not talking to one of my other best friends due to a mild case of jealousy and depression and annoyance (AKA just stupid girl drama that I create because I'm stupid as fuck) I was expecting to go to the fair alone, only this one super sweet girl invited me to hang out with her and a few other people so that was a nice surprise.
ANYWAY! I don't know why I put that in all caps...but anyway my so my friend that invited me is named Kelsey. We were with a bunch of other people only every goddam person abandoned us, so it was just me and her wandering about the fair. She is terrified of rides whereas I'm a ride warrior, but I didn't wanna spend my money on expensive tickets so I blew my cash on food instead! Gotta love carnival food. It's so worth it.
So aside from eating Zeppoles and fries and being abandoned, we had fun. We played games, I won a huge bag of sourpatch kids. And we got nail polish. And we bonded. It was fun. It was really refreshing compared to being stuck at home doing...I don't even know... I don't do anything anymore. Except watch Disney channel with my lil sister. Haha!
My point is is that although I wasn't with my closest friends, and so therefore I was totally out of my comfort zone, I had fun. Usually when I'm going somewhere alone, and I'm meeting up with lots of people, I end up awkwardly tagging along behind the group, ignored.
If any of you are also socially...impaired..disabled...stupid...awkward...whatever, I want to say that if you find a really dependable person to hang out with, like Kelsey, hanging out in large groups of people is fun because with people like Kelsey, they will be looking for you to make sure that you're tagging along because they want you there.
Or the two of you will just hang out by yourselves. Either way you won't be alone :)
Peace out! :3
