I think I just try way to hard to be cool and relevant that I end up not being myself, and I think I would be a lot less socially awkward if I was just myself (...even though myself is quite awkward, but in a funny way? hard to explain, so I won't try)
This is why I love middle schoolers. I don't have to try; at least, I don't feel like I have to. It doesn't matter if I really am cool, they will still think I'm cool just because I'm older (right?). Even if they do think I'm a total dweeb, they will still love me and laugh at my terrible jokes, impersonations, immaturity.
Funny I should feel so inspired to post this. I was just talking to one of my friends about how awesome middle schoolers are. They are moldable, they understand what you're talking about, but aren't old enough yet to have a solid opinion on it, they are free-spirited (one of my youth was showing me pics on her phone-- totally irrelevant to anything, but she loved it... and so did I), and they just want to have fun (I love the fact that they will dance during worship and act like fools.. mainly because I quite enjoy doing the same).
There's my rant. Hope you loved it.
