Today, I was walking around my new school trying to figure out where to go. Then I realized I was talking to myself. Out loud. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was so lonely that I had a conversation with myself on my way home. It was only when I reached my apartment complex that I discovered that my neighbour had been walking behind me, laughing to himself the whole way. FML
Today, I was taking a placement test for the new college I am going to. After the test and picking up a few numbers, I left with great pride. I opened the door and started walking out. I then realized that I had walked into the closet. FML
Today, I saw a girl walking to class by herself. I thought she was weird for not having any friends to walk with. Thats when I realized I was eating lunch by myself. In my car. FML
Today, I was out shopping with my friends when I saw my ex. I instinctively tried to hide by quickly turning around and walking into a store. It was a mirror. I walked straight into my own reflection. FML
Today, I realized how alone I truly was when I caught myself talking to a podcast. FML
Today, I walked into an office at work, ready to ask everyone a question. I then blanked and forgot why I was there the second everyone turned to look at me. I just stood there, nodded, and walked out. FML
Today, I was walking around with a friend, who I assumed was beside me, but it turned out she'd left my side minutes ago and hadn’t heard my rambling that some random person had. FML
Today, I was walking down the street when I saw someone I thought I knew. I waved enthusiastically and shouted, "Hey!" The person stared blankly at me, so I quickly turned it into a wave at someone else behind them. There was no one behind them. I was just waving and yelling into the void like an idiot. FML
Today, I was walking around school alone and felt someone tap my back. I laughed and turned around to find no one was there. I felt confused when I felt the tapping again, which is when I chose to yell at the nearest person, "What?!" I later found out it was a bottle in my backpack tapping me. FML
Today, I walked around town by myself for four hours because I was too ashamed to tell my parents that I have no friends willing to spend time with me. FML

When I moderated this, I filed it under "adolescent self-consciousness", which sells a lot of skin cream but isn't very funny. You know, like "My mom asked to friend my bff on facebook FML it's all over Christ strike me dead because I'll never live this down graghhhnyahafgh!!!" Get over it, OP; you haven't scorched the green fields of your social life into a barren moonscape just yet. Most of the kids passing in the halls were just as self-absorbed and awkward as you.

I do something similar. If I catch myself talking to myself, and there are people around, I'll just start spittin' lyrics and act like I was rapping the whole time. It looks cooler that way. BTW, I think 3-6 Mafia is cool, but I'm always spittin' MF Doom lyrics.

Nah ... I don't believe it's that bad. It's not like it's the end of the world. I mean, if you were looking around and stuff and talking to yourself(?), people walking by would obviously realize you were a new student, amirite?

So? I talk to myself all the time. It's the only way I can be sure of intelligent conversation. (Bonus points to all who get the reference. :P)
