PREVIEW

I know we all have that voice in the back of our heads that’s like, “blah! You’re terrible and
no one likes you” but I know it’s stupid — I still feel like people legitimately think that way
about me. I mean, if they didn’t like me, they wouldn’t invite me, right? Right?

It’s just so crowded out here. You’ve got the right idea. Hiding out in here was a good call.
I hope you don’t mind that I followed you. You seem friendly. That’s nice. I mean, I should
be excited to be here, right? I mean, they invited me, they must like me at least enough
to bring me here. They must like me enough to want to spend time with me...but they
haven’t really talked to me and I don’t know anyone else and — sorry. I tend to babble
sometimes. I’m glad that you don’t seem to mind.
