I am not a cool person. I never was, and chances are I never will be. I've always been a bit of a dork, a bit of a loser.
I mean looking back on myself between the ages of twelve and fifteen it's a little hard not to cringe. I mean I had the braces, the ugly glasses, the not very fashionable clothes, and a frankly dreadful taste in shoes.
I like to think that I have improved on those fronts despite remaining a loser. But I mean seeing as yesterday and today I made my hair up like Lagertha and Aslaug from Vikings, I think we can all agree on the fact that I'm not exactly the coolest cat on this street.
Whatever. My hair looks awesome today, I don't care. Most of the time.
When I'm on my own surrounded by people who are cool, and who have been tricked into believing that I'm a fully functional human being that could possibly be allowed to hang out with them, it's not so fun.
"So Chloe what do you like to do with your time off ? "
"Oh you know, nothing special, I like to sit at home in the dark with my teddy bears and my cat watching way too many TV shows and rereading Harry Potter for the 800th time"
But when I'm with friends it's awesome. Cause my friends are also fucking dorks. All of the them. Seriously. Some of them are very good at camouflaging themselves, but trust me, they're dorks.
Losers, the lot of them. God bless.
So yeah. I'm a loser. It's not so bad. I'm pretty well surrounded. And besides, being cool always seemed pretty overrated.
