A Simple Life of a Teenage Boy - Page 6/97

The month of August has begun. My days are usual. Go to school, come back from school, do homework and sleep. I spent these months by doing only these. James is not here and I feel lonely for most of the time. I need something productive, something that is beyond my usual classes but what is it? I need some motivation to do something but I don't know what. Should I just spend my days normally like everyone else? I guess not. Music is one extra thing that I love the most beside games. I want to play drums so bad but I don't know how and when I should start. There are a few boys in my classroom who are good at playing guitar and some other musical instruments. Today I talked with them and they were very happy that I wanted to join them but they looked deadpan after I told that I have not even touched a drum stick before.

I haven't tried to talk with anyone else in the class. Besides, I'm starting to feel lonely. I'm thinking of establishing my friendship with others but I find awkward to directly talk with them. And suddenly a boy from our class calls me. A boy named Eric who looks thin and is alone all the time. He has a good heart and good intention but few of the boys make fun of him in the class which is why he doesn't talk much with anyone in the class. But he might have thought the same case with me. But I'm not mocked by anyone, I just find hard to establish friendship out of the blue. Anyway I like him and we're becoming good friends. He supports me and I also support him. And one more shocking thing is that some few girls are trying to talk with me. One even asked me my name even though she knows it already. Someone once said, "You can't understand what's in a girl's mind" and now I think that's true. These girls are really annoying sometimes but I'm happy with it. At least they entertain me throughout the day. Or, maybe I'm so handsome that they are attracted in me. Seriously, do I look so handsome?
