this is for you

I know I make out this blog to be about me, me, me just like every other person out there with a blog.
But in all reality, it isn't.
I'm so focused about myself that I sometimes forget to appreciate the others and the effect they are having in my life
But it's because of those people that I am the way I am.
I guess what I'm trying to say is,
This is for you.
this blog is not only about me, it is about you, and
this is for you.
This is for all the loners and the people that find peace in solitude.
This is for the 2 am lovers in their never-ending struggle between day and night.
This is for my upstairs neighbors who like to live on the wild side, making noise all night.
This is for my nerdy chemistry teacher and his 'social problems' jokes.
This is for my roommate who worries too much about me, while not taking enough time for herself.
This is for little red corvette and her joyous attitude, little sister mindset, and who is able to bring a smile to my face just by talking.
This is for arsenal and her boyfriend, this is for all those nights they spend doing, who knows what in their room, when we promised to have an open door policy, and she is constantly closing the door with him.
This is for teaza (black bolt) who always seems to be trying her hardest to look out for me, when I don't deserve it. This is for the way she is so much a like me I have trouble describing my life, because I feel like I'm just repeating her life back to her. This is for all the nights she stayed up with me, talking, about anything and everything that we wanted to say.
This is for Brian, and his childish attitude, his ways of making me feel stupid whenever I am around him. This is for Sarah, and my wish for her, all I want in life is for her to be happy.
This is for my confusion and bewilderment about how their relationship is at a standstill yet they still talk and act like everything is still the same, he still comes over for math homework and she still sits close and makes him food.
This is for all the introverts that don't see what the big hype is about going out and socializing.
This is for all the extroverts that don't see the appeal of staying home and just reading a book.
This is for robin, who through all the thick and thin has stuck by my side, although we may not talk very often, when we do it feels like we never stopped. we can talk about anything and everything, it doesn't really matter, it just feels good to be talking with her, she just understands my soul on almost a deeper level than almost everyone else.
This is for all the people that I never talk about or talk to, this for you.
This is for the kid from my Biology class that I can't tell if he's flirting with me or not.
This is for all the guys that Ashley is going to meet on tinder and randomly invite over to our apartment to play games.
This is for all the people I do and used to work with, and all the mocked that commenced through that job.
This is for the weirdos, the strangers, the insane, the crazy, the disturbed,
this is for you.
This is for the kid in my Social Problems class that I'm pretty sure doesn't know any English.
This is for the dude in the Media Lab that knows that all I want is a camera every time I walk through the doorway.
This is for the lonely, lost, and abandoned.
This is for the jocks that laugh about inappropriate jokes.
This is for the people that are studying in the library all day every day.
This is for the people that don't even know that we have a library.
This is for the people that understand sarcasm and return it back.
This is for the people that stare at me, confused, whenever I say a sarcastic comment.
This is for the kids with ADHD that just want to tell you about the soggy piece of bread on the side of the road that to them had a funny face on it.
This is for the people who manage to get up at the crack of dawn to go running in the brisk winter weather.
This is for the people that cherish the moments of extra sleep in a warm comfortable bed.
This is for the people with scars hiding under their clothing.
This is for the kid in my stage craft class that only ever responds with an 'okay' and has earned the name 'Okay Jason'.
This is for the individuals that stay up at night pondering the existence of their lives.
This is for the people that even wonder why they are still alive.
This is for the people that can't sleep because of the nightmares.
You, this is for you.
This is for everyone,
but especially,
You.
