Jenny in Suburbia

Ahoy. I'm Jenny. I'm edgy, but not in the way you think. I'm the girl on the edge...the one you see in your peripherals, but never focus both eyes on. Somehow, the eye and the conversation just slide right over me. You know me. With the brown hair and dark eyes...and pale...um, kinda small and quiet? Yeah, her.

Well, I'm boring. But what's going on around me? Not so much.

Follow me for the scary skinny of high school and coming in from the fringes. Spread the word and, if you're so inclined, leave some words.

warning signs

Posted by Jenny Suburbs at 2:03 AM 0 comments
our trip to some happy beachhouse has been canceled. i can't even begin to process what's happened in the past 48 hours. how perfectly stereotypical, to have a traumatic prom.

but luna...she's beyond reach. she got rushed to the emergency room to have her stomach pumped. at least, that's the word.

we can't find her. presumably, someone has cut her off. stopped her. maybe she's heeded the signs.

overwhelmed.

Posted by Jenny Suburbs at 3:40 PM 0 comments
It's sort of astonishing.
I tell my teachers I'll be missing one day of school, and they throw more information than I'd learn in law school at me.

I'm actually making tests up ahead of time. And papers. And presentations.

I cry nightly.

flight 2.0

Floating like Luna.
Flighty like Luna.
This is a ridiculous pose.


But it'd be just like her to float out a window on a tangent.

dignified worship: i has it.

I too have been known to writhe around at the ecstasy of hipster pictures to admire. But I like to think I'm more dignified when I do it.

turtleturtle

Posted by Jenny Suburbs at 11:45 AM 0 comments
Shelled&armored, but poking that little head out.
I'm like the teeny turtle, with my social life in Luna's hands, she of the fashion plate and endless stream of relationships. see: wedding band and nail polish.
One day, I'll be one of those fat turtles you see by the side of the road on vacations. Too heavy to pick up and to stubborn to move.
For now, off to lunch. I'll feed and grow big & strong.

certain things catch and hold the eye. certain things have a glamor all their own.

Inept or...ept?

Posted by Jenny Suburbs at 1:44 AM 0 comments
After a weekend like that, it's sort of...reassuring to go back to school. There, consistency can be depended on.

And it's nice to feel less helpless. In class, all I need to do is answer questions capably and better than my peers, and I am a god among insects, as they say. On the weekends, dealing with the messy tangles of Luna and Tucker and a thousand other things, I am not so capable, not so proficient. I like feeling strong and skilled and in charge of my own path.

Well, I liked the colors.
