Danerbean+Katertot: BFFs

dear dana,
so in english today, we interpretted this quote. it said that a young person's friends determine the type of person they are. i don't remember the exact quote. but see, if your friends do bad things like smoke pot and drink and have sex with people they barely know, eventually you'll give into peer pressure and become the same type of person. and since zoe hangs out with kids who do stupid shit like that, she does too and will turn into someone just like them.
that's why i stay away from people who smoke pot and stuff like that. i don't wanna be like that, and it makes me uncomfortable to really even be around. so i think it's understandable that you question your friendship with zoe because she's doing that stuff. you're not that bad type of kid, and that doesn't make you a party pooper. that makes you too smart and mature to do things that you know are bad for you.
so now that big mouth ninth graders have told delmar that you like him, do you know if he likes you? i think you should find that out. maybe i just think you like a lot of guys cuz i've been with the same one for about 5 months and i don't like anyone else. so it's a lot compared to how many different guys i like. but if you find someone you really like, i'm happy for you. i just think you're being silly and fickle with all these boys that you don't have any real feelings for. so they're probably not worth the time you're giving them. well maybe no one likes zoe cuz she's weird and wishes she were lady gaga. ya know...just sayin'. if i were a dude, i'd find that verrryyyyy unattractive. also! it doesn't surprise me that zoe madeout with a girl. didn't we always suspect that she was a lesbian? maybe she's just living up to her potential.
i agree that people are stupid. with all the pot smokers and drinkers and fighters. they're like "oh look at me, i'm so cool and mature" when in reality they're just fucking up their bodies and ruining things for themselves instead of being smart.
