'Cause I'm the one that loves you lately.
You and me, we got this great thing.
We're the only one's that around,
We're the only one's that around this Babylon.

Amidst all the happy faces I turn around to see prior to my 17th Birthday celebrations, I honestly don't feel up to it anymore. I am not being a wet blanket. I just feel like isolating myself from everything and everyone. Is this some sort of a post 17th syndrome?

I hate feeling like this. There's just too many things to complete, too much to digest. And all I have is a few weeks left. I am sorry if Ive not been a sport lately. It's not because I am going through depression or anything like that. I just need some isolation. I need space.

The Bottom Line
If you are not in the mood to be social right now, don't force yourself to go out.

In Detail
If you are not in the mood to be social right now, then the worst thing you could do would be to force yourself to go out. You cannot convince yourself to have a good time if you're just not feeling it! When you pretend that you're having fun, you won't be able to fool anyone -- your acting skills are just not that great right now. But even though you're not into hanging out with others, you will still have some good energy. You'll just be able to enjoy it more alone.

Yana, I am so past apologising. I know even a sorry won't make it up to you now. Sorry I really had not much of a choice. :(
