My favorite time, though, is lunch... because I get to see Sam and Patrick. We spend the time working on Mary Elizabeth's fanzine... about music and The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It's called PunkRocky. Mary Elizabeth is really interesting... because she's a Buddhist and a punk. But somehow she always acts like my father at the end ofa long day. Her best friend Alice loves vampires... and wants to go to film school. She also stealsjeans from the mall. I don't know why, because her family is rich... but I'm trying not to bejudgmental. Especially since I know that they were all there for Patrick last year. Patrick never likes to be serious... so it took me a while to get what happened. When he was a junior, Patrick started seeing Brad on the weekends in secret. I guess it was hard, too... because Brad had to get drunk every time they fooled around. Then Monday in school, Brad would say... "Man, I was so wasted I don't remember a thing." This went on for seven months. When they finally did it, Brad said he loved Patrick. Then he started to cry. No matter what Patrick did... Brad kept saying that his dad would kill him. And saying that he was going to hell. Patrick was eventually able to help Brad get sober. I asked Patrick if he felt sad... that he still had to keep it a secret. And he said "No," because at least now... Brad doesn't have to get drunk to love him. I think I understand, because I really like Sam. I asked my sister about her... and she said that when Sam was a freshman... the upperclassmen used to get her drunk at parties. I guess she had a reputation. But I don't care. I'd hate for her tojudge me based on what I used to be like. So I've been making her a mix tape so she'll know how I feel.
