It was just another ordinary, cool October day. The sun was shining bright; multi-colored leaves were scattered about the grass. Last night had surprisingly been a good night. I had actually recalled dreaming. It must've been the first night in three months that i could honestly say i had a good night's rest. Things looked bright for the coming school day. Oh, how i was wrong. 1

I arrived at school, smiling from ear to ear. As i walked in the cafeteria door i saw her, sitting at her usual seat in the middle of the crowded lunch-room. i sat across the round table from her, thinking nothing of it. One of her friends exclaimed that she wasn't speaking to me, but we were never really friends anyway, so i just shrugged it off. 2

On the way to our first hour class together, the person i was so madly in love with seemed to act normal, ,as if nothing had happened the day before. I wondered how she could just forget about it. I would soon find the answer. 3

I sat in my usual seat in Art class, waiting for my love to come and sit next to me. Only...she didn't sit next to me as she had every day since we started going out. In fact, , she didn't say one word to me that whole class period. 4

In second hour American History i wrote her a letter stating my concerns. I told her that she reminded me of the last girl who had broking my heart, and that i was worried she would do the same. She never received that note. 5

After writing an essay over Social Darwinism, second hour ended. A mutual friend of ours came up to me in the hall and informed me that the person who had proclaimed her love to me the night before had developed feelings for two other boys. Somehow, i wasn't surprised. 6

So during lunch, while every other student was enjoying their cheeseburgers and corn dogs, i wrote a new note. In this one, i ended a relationship that had only recently made me happier than i have ever been. It hurt so much, but she had been so cold. 7

Third hour language arts was soothing. Two girls that had hardly spoken to me before this day expressed their concern for me. These were the same girls my former love had accused of being shallow. 8

In beginning woods i surprised myself. Instead of moping and feeling sorry for myself, i actually had fun. Again, with two girls that usually never speak to me. There are a lot of nice people at this school. 9

I know she's read the note by now, and I"m wondering how she reacted. She is probably acting non-nonchalant and shrugging it off. 10

Even through all the pain I've suffered today, i consider it a good day. I may have been hurt by love yet again, but i realized that it's ok. This girl i gave my heart to was not worthy of my love. She took it for granted. It took the help of former strangers to make me realize it, but i deserve much better. Perhaps mankind isn't as hopeless as i once thought.11
