Am I Bad Luck? Or Am I Just Cursed?

My mom says I'm not bad luck, but I think I am. I can't do anything right! I mean, I can't even DIE right! Once I was 'stable' enough or whatever, I got my phone back and the first thing I did was text Vi asking if she could hang out or something. After a few hours of Netflix-watching, she finally texted back. So, my first plan for the summer is to go to the movies with my best friend! Finally, I can have a somewhat fun summer even though it had a pretty sour start. Thanks to my 'smart' decisions.

Once I'm done getting ready and all that, I grab my skate board and head out. The movie starts at 7:30 but I have no life and I got there at 6. Now, I'm here waiting in line awkwardly, feeling eyes on me from every angle. I count my money infinite times until I get to the register, with exactly $8.17 in hand, I say, "One ticket for 'Twilight', please." Trying to calm myself before I have an anxiety attack. I hate waiting in line and ordering things. I hate the twilight series too, but I was desperate to get out of the house. I sit quietly in the lobby, listening to music while I wait for Vi.

It's 7:35 and the previews are probably going to be over soon, so I text Vi asking where she is, just as I see her walk in and get her ticket, with Rose, one of the "popular" kids at school. I would've been fine with it but, she didn't tell me. I was kind of annoyed but it didn't bother me... Until we actually got into the theater. We all just went straight to the seats instead of getting popcorn and all that so they asked me to save their seats and when they come back I could go get my stuff.

After waiting for twenty minutes I got up, not caring if I'd miss the movie. Once I got into the lobby I saw them playing around in the arcade and taking pictures in the photo booth. That was it, I'm not going to be ditched by my only friend, with some "popular" chick. So I left the theater, my mom asked me why I was back home so early and I just told her that the tickets were sold out.

After a few hours of reading a really good book called "13 Reasons Why" I finally got a text from Violet,"Hey Em, why did you ditch us? Are you mad at us or something?" I read it but I didn't respond. I could tell she didn't really care. Today was just an absolutely fabulous day, and I can't wait for tomorrow.
