what makes you stop and notice a girl?

School was fine, otherwise uneventful. Got home, studied for a couple of quizzes and downloaded songs for some CD orders. I noticed that everyone’s nicer to me now that the cheerleading competition is over and the juniors were the champion. For some reason I was jetlagged today and did nothing but sleep during my spare time. I think I got too used to waking up late every day. How quickly that one week flew by!

I got my period today and life’s all good now. I’ve been more or less happier the past two days but I wonder how long it will last. Fifteen is such an angsty age; I’ve never had more mood swings in my life. But I guess it’s just something that people have to go through..you learn a lot about yourself when you’re fifteen. Thank God I’ll be having my birthday in less than two months. As a kid I always thought that sixteen was a magical age cos that’s when all the fairy tale princesses got married. Hah, fat chance of me finding my significant other in the near future. Unless of course my fairy godmother changes me into a drop-dead gorgeous bombshell in a couple of months.

There was this article in a girly magazine a classmate brought to school today. It was an interview for guys and the question went something like this: what makes you stop and notice a girl? I observed that most guys notice girls who have sexy bodies, gorgeous faces and killer smiles. I think I have a nice body–it’s not model-thin but I think all the curves are in the right places. As for the gorgeous face and the killer smile…erm, I think I’m cute, which is a very far cry from being gorgeous. And I don’t like the way I look when I smile though.

So am I a hopeless case? I thought so for awhile but I got a small, shining ray of hope in the form of my sophomore year Values Ed. teacher. I think she’s the most dull and dreary person in the world but somehow she managed to find a husband. So maybe I won’t die old and alone after all.
