Rant of the Day

*Please note that names were changed for the protection of their pride today*
My rant for...the current moment: Conner and Max-two of my friends who may or may not have flipped personalities.
Okay, so Max is being...practiced in the art of douchebaggery. I don't know WHAT his problem is, but MAN that guy is annoying right now. Up until...Well, Monday I guess, we were super close. Now I don't know what's going on with him. He's always being a jerk and hanging out with a ton of girls he'd never usually be caught dead near. He nearly ran me over running down the street today, and when I called out he barely turned around. I shouted out, "Where are you going and what is your problem lately?" and he just screamed back, "I'm busy!" and took off again. So...whatever. Go have fun doing whatever Max. Just don't come anywhere near my house until you have your brains back.
Then the other wacky thing: My friend Conner is a total player. We're close, but he's always surrounded by girls in short skirts during school, so we never really talk unless I seek him out to say something specific or if we randomly see each other while he's NOT in a huddle of high pitched giggly girls. I mean, I love the guy, he's my best friend, but his girl groupies get annoying.
The other issue:
Conner is dyslexic. So he covers his insecurity about it with an abnormally large ego. He's really sweet, but he never acts like it. He acts like a bigshot. I guess in English class he's always cracking jokes and being his normal school self but needs help all the time.
So this chic in Tech walked up to me and asked what his problem was. I explained his situation and told her to lay off. She's one of my friends so she was just like, "Oh okay. I just didn't know. I would never laugh at him." Then she and a couple other girls just started talking about how cute he was and walked away.
He walked by and I told him that the people in English didn't matter and that he was better than them, no matter what he believed. He got really upset and punched a wall a few times. I told him (thought I'm still not sure the guy believes me) just how awesome he is and what an amazing guy he is and how they didn't matter. He went to gym and I found him after class and asked if he was okay. He nodded and hugged me before walking away.
That's just scenario one.
Okay, like I said: conner is a player. He's always surrounded by girls much prettier and more scantily clad than I am. And he hugged a total loser...in front of them. It was weird. Sweet, but weird for him.
THEN I had a headache and he kept asking if I needed him to take me to the nurse. But he KNOWS I get bad headaches and I would be fine when I got home and took asprin. So he was freaking out for no reason, really.
And now I'm kinda pissed at our mutual friend who rides the bus with us. She kept talking about how: "Full of himself" he is. I defended him and she blew it off and said I was just like all the other girls in school.
Well I'm not. I don't take his bull. I see through it and will not stand for it. he's pretty much learned he can't lie to me very easily. It's just not going to work.
So now I'm mad at her. But whatever.
I feel kinda bad too. Because of my headache I went home instead of going to his meet(a sports thng) and I said I would go. But I just couldn't go.
So..everything is weird today.
I don't know why I'm ranting here. I have a diary. I don't use it much, but I have one. (Bet Conner would LOVE to read that...hahaha)
In his defense, he is a sweet guy. He just likes to hide his insecurity. He thinks he's got to live up to this image of the perfect guy but what he hasn't figured out is that we all think he's totally awesome (minus girl on bus) and what an amazing person he is. Even Hea (sisterly being) admited it and she "hates" him. I told her what the girl on the bus said and she got PISSED. But she never liked her much anyways.
Well, right now I don't either.
Conner willl NEVER see this (I haven't told him I have a blog) so I'm just going to toss this out there: Conner is not only very cute, but he's the nicest guy I think I may have met out here (I moved here last year). He pisses me off, drives me up the wall, makes me scream at him, has pushed me over the edge sooooo may times, but he's also the most thoughtful, considerate, and funny guy you'd meet. He's the kind of guy who would hold the door for an elderly woman and then tell her he'd never seen such a beautiful woman before. He's the kind of guy who can give himself but doesn't like accepting compliments from his real friends.
And he's a really good singer.
And no matter what he or anyone else thinks: I think he's pretty great. And I know he can do anything he wants as long as he can have a little faith in himself.
Okay, I think I'm about done with this rant. Latah.
